Jode , in Neighbor outraged after HOA decides to tear down 12-year-old home over new rule change: ‘How is that even legal?’

A variance permit for something with a “zone number” referenced like that isn’t going to be decided by an HOA its going to come from a local zoning law. So I don’t think an HOA has anything to do with this. To me it reads like a property buyer is interested in the place contingent on if they get that zoning law for 35ft wavered to 20ft for either an addition on the place or maybe knock it down and building their own joint.

The Primetime Event on Apple TV is hilarious. It is pouring rain so Messi is going to come out and just get drenched at midfield. The broadcasters also aren’t under cover and are just soaked trying to talk and conduct interviews

PenguinJuice , in Canada wildfires: Second firefighter dies amid record blazes

That's so sad. How are these people even fighting a fire this monstrous?! I can't even imagine what being in that environment is like :(

orclev , in A functional cure for diabetes is now available in the US

This has been around a long time and I’m not seeing anything new in this article, this seems like mostly regulatory changes nothing actually medical. This is effectively a pancrease transplant, and the problem is that type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disorder. That means there are only two viable options, permanent immuno-suppresents with the many many many terrible side effects that involves, or incapsulating the pancreatic cells in some kind of membrane that isolates them from the immune system which introduces its own set of potential complications. Either way this is far from a “cure” and is at best an alternative treatment, and a highly problematic one at that.

balisada , in Tour de France 2023: Fan causes crash on stage 15 while taking selfie

After reading the article, I was quite surprised to learn how often it happens. You would think that people would be more aware of their proximity to the road, because they are standing on it.

EeeDawg101 , in Never Mind the Delivery, More Online Consumers Are Turning to Store Pickup

If I’m purchasing something exciting like a new game console or piece of tech, and it’s available at best buy, I’ll do their in store pickup since they usually have it ready within an hour. Way better than anxiously waiting for it to be delivered in one to three days. Anything else that’s not exiting, I’m not too concerned about waiting for shipping.

MicroWave OP , in Pickleball Is America's Fastest-Growing Sport – But Is It Also The Most Dangerous? Report Shows It Could Cost US $500 Million In Medical Expenses
@MicroWave@lemmy.world avatar

The escalating frequency of pickleball injuries has brought concerns about the safety of the popular sport to the forefront. A recent study revealed that approximately 90% of reported cases affected people 50 and older, with sprains and fractures making up nearly half of the injuries.

Breaking news: old people are fragile and taxing to the healthcare system

It’s hard for me to believe the benefits of the increase in exercise are outweighed by the risks of injury. I’d be quite surprised if pickleball didn’t reduce the total cost of medical care.

Matthew Lazinski from the University of South Florida School of Physical Therapy & Rehab Sciences, reflecting on the rise in pickleball injuries witnessed in the clinic, emphasizes the potential risks associated with the sport. He asserts that the surge in injuries can be attributed to people embracing an active lifestyle. He said the advantages gained from exercise outweigh the associated costs.

It’s right there in the article.

Glad it’s sinking, most likely will be removing my whole account from the platform very soon and gonna be so glad to do so

Not trying to sound judgemental, but what has kept you on up to now?

@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

I just sometimes browse it, that and I use it when things like Uber Eats and other services seem to not work as companies seem to get back to so much quicker on there than any ‘help service’. I’ve posted way more on Mastodon than ever on Twitter. So not really much keeping me about tbh just want to be able to see things such as Minecraft info or sometimes put out a thought. Also some of my contacts only speak through Twitter as of the moment.

rehabdoll ,

Thanks for replying. Personally I struggle to see what the use of it ever was. But that’s on me and my reality. Thanks for giving me insight :-)

I love how they tried a bait board and it didn’t work. She knows the real boards have people on them.

I never really used Twitter, but I am enjoying dumpster fire.
Now if the government could only get his Muskiness to pay taxes.

Homeschooled316 , in An otter in California that keeps bullying people off of their surfboards has been too quick for wildlife officials to catch

Kevin Connor, a spokesperson for Monterey Bay Aquarium, said Otter 841 is considered a danger to the public because it is ignoring its natural survival instincts, ABC reported.

"When we see this type of behavior exhibited by otters, it is a sign that they no longer have that healthy fear of human beings that allows them to stay safe in the wild away from us," Conner said.

I’m reading your words, Kevin, I am. But my heart is stronger than my brain. It wants that Otter to win.

wahming , in Teen Passenger Detained In Airport For 'Skiplagging'

Why IS skiplagging illegal, anyway? Is there actually a practical reason for it?

CeruleanRuin ,

It’s not illegal, it’s just against most airlines’ policies because hurts them financially.
