If you have a bedliner, you have to pull that load in tension across the back and tighten it with motorcycle straps or the like. If not, it will slip right on out the back, friction free. Kind of one of the points of having a bedliner. A poseur truck owner wouldn’t know this, the same as they wouldn’t know how or why to tie a trucker’s hitch. You don’t have to be completely inexperienced to screw this up but it helps.
Read up on Bukele, if you haven’t already. Yet another tyrannical blueprint for Trump.
The officers were denied access by both principals.
This is key. I’m proud of LA for this one.
Nope. Just ludicrous propositions to terrorize everyone on the planet.
Forgot I made an account on another instance and they both show up with this more purple theme so that screenshot you’re showing is throwing me off but there’s a whole series of tweaks you can do in their settings. I guess I have it set to default. Might have forgotten to look for Alexandrite community. Thank you.
oh, there’s this, where you log in: https://alexandrite.app/instance
Looks like screenshots here for me:https://lemmy.world/post/1095076
Trying to subscribe to https://lemmy.world/c/alexandrite but it’s loading poorly, not bringing up my remote instance, giving server error at the moment… And, got it. Searched from my instance with this !alexandrite@lemmy.world as they describe in the sidebar, it’s pending.
I am an old. I do not know what that means. It’s not lemmy.world dependent but yeah, a nicely tweaked interface(?) It has very cool kind of neon style. Clean, readable. Flexible layout. I use it in a browser on my phone too.
Almost always fail to load pics here.
Maybe this will work…
Edit: Duh, yeah a proxy (said with absolute confidence)
They’re designed to crap out way before they should and the ones in the US definitely do not have that label so confirm their location before jumping on this bandwagon.

BIC has drawn criticism for maintaining its business operations in Russia after the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. Yale University’s Chief Executive Leadership Institute has published lists identifying companies, including BIC, that have continued operations in Russia despite the ongoing conflict.

Some of the owners are complicit. I deleted my account (the first time) back in '16 when I was fed up with the tolerance for extremists. Loving decentralized options that protect us with reasonable moderation options.
magats are enabled by every disgusting facet of our post Reality TV era and get all their cues from such antisocial behavior. They can’t argue either way, their heads are so far up their own and eachother’s asses.
Lemmy is completely crushing Reddit with fresh, fun memes. It reminds me of how brilliant Reddit was at its inception. I love the look and feel via alexandrite.app. Keep it up and thanks guys.
Pretty sick of these kinds of doomsdayers rolling over and spreading panic instead of focusing on calling out all the bullshit. Not that that’s even an effective approach. What needs to be repeated over and over is the obvious failures in simple enough terms they can become mantras, slogans, ways of beating the propagandists at their own game. We’re more creative and smarter than them yet we let ourselves lose the propaganda war. Well, not us per se, but legacy media and feckless Democrats.
Somebody got a call from Tim Apple. So much for the clamor to make iPhones in the US. More American jobs vaporized, just like that.
They’ve been saying this for other fed agencies from the get go so, yes?
the system created by that first Constitutional Congress has comprehensively failed.
Unshittification @ … yes please
Thanks.
Can’t say I ever cared about karma. Lemmy reminds me of stripped down original reddit. Almost original. I remember when Reddit didn’t even have thumbnails. Back then, there was a thing called memepool. You didn’t know what you were going to get when you clicked on links on either site. There was a lot of fun unpredictable content and Reddit still meant you read it and we’re vouching for it. It was like this whole world of quality stuff from really smart people. Thumbnails and subreddits ushered in a series of trashings and lead to intense divisiveness reddit never recovered from. . .
Very good points.
I had started to describe with more detail that I was a cabinet and furniture maker for decades and still work in industry as a designer, but was annoying even myself with the description (didn’t want to be lecturing folks further). Anyhow, I once saw a guy I worked for send a client off with an expensive piece I had just finished, without lifting a finger to secure the load. That piece exploded out of the bed, somewhere between our shop and the Bay Bridge, splintering onto the freeway. Dude made this woman pay for replacement, said contract stipulated as such. Even supposedly experienced jagoffs like that guy can blow it royally.
