Why shouldn’t firearm manufacturers be held accountable for the use of their weapons in crimes?

My parents are 57 and 63. My mother is erratic, forgetful, and when she gets mad she sometimes screams and throws things. My father is slowly going deaf, getting slower and more stubborn and forgetful as well. They can be infuriating sometimes, but I know that they’re aging and I can’t be mad at them. How do I deal with...
Getting heated is bad for the heart, after all. But I’ve always had the belief that the worst thing you can be in this world is consciously uninformed, so I wanna stay in the loop.
Were the peppers already pickled on the plant somehow? Is there a type of pepper called pickled peppers? What is a peck anyway?
Assuming everything else was the same, but we branch off into a parallel universe where the US Supreme Court just ignore facts and arbitrarily decided by a 5-4 vote (assuming Roberts side with the 3 liberal justices, because that’s probably the most realistic scenario) that Donald J. Trump is the winner of the election. What...
So firstly, I don’t sweat a lot to begin with. I’ll go for a run and I’ll be at a mile before I feel sweat beading up. I’ll get a little clammy throughout the day, but rarely have whole body sweats. As a result, I have very low body odor. If I don’t shower, it’ll take several days before my significant other will...
I can’t remember the name of the meme but it’s in web comic style where a person will be like “I’m so glad to have finished college! That was so hard!” while facing a dude titled “college”. Then behind him with a giant bat is a buffer cartoon character with a baseball bat titled “Looking for a job with no...

These were from water we just boiled
Admittedly, I don’t know much about Brexit, but from what I have been exposed to, it seems like a decisively economical and political impairment that made travel and business with the rest of Europe more difficult and costly. Since it is so highly criticized as a terrible move, why doesn’t the UK just rejoin the EU?
In Hong Kong there are many of us who want to preserve Hong Kong/Cantonese culture from erosion by CCP/mainland culture. For example, sometimes you can see a lot of mandarin around school kids rather than cantonese. The government is also pushing for schools to teach in mandarin rather than cantonese. Mandarin is the language...

As an English speaking person who recently got into learning Japanese, I was intrigued by the use of the three writing systems: Kanji, Hiragana and Katakana, however I could not truly understand why it is that way. I do know a bit about the history of these languages but that is not what I am interested in knowing; I wish to...
Someone asked a question about how frequently young people have time to socialize and it made me think about what people do with their evenings. I recently asked my son to go to a concert (free ticket to see a band i know he likes) and he declined because it was an hour away on a weeknight. If we invite our kids or niece/nephew...
Genuine question and just to clarify I’m talking about stockings rather than active wear or yoga pants...
Young Adults, How Frequent Do You See Your Friends?...
Ok so imagine I’m on instance A, which is federated with instance B but defederated with instance C. Can people from instance C see a post I make on instance B and vice-versa?
For example - if a popular TV show is about to have its season or series finale, or a sport league is about to have its championship game. Are there any websites that track these, without all the noise of less important shows or games, to keep track of?...
I feel like I missed this part of internet school.
The fun of Lemmy’s “all” is that you see posts from all around the world. Today my feed is suddenly full of memes in German about an old white guy with an eyepatch. Who is he, and why is he suddenly a meme?
So, I had an incredibly fucked-up childhood in a toxic abusive environment and never really learned how to people....
Bars are notable for staying open late, but I’m not really familiar with alternatives that might operate similarly. I think many cafés (at least around my area) tend to close a few hours earlier by comparison, which would be my go-to for an alternative otherwise, so what other options are there?
I can’t click on it, don’t find anything on lemmy.world about it (maybe I’m just not good at searching for this stuff) and it only appears on a single comment I made. I haven’t seen it anywhere else yet. What does it mean?...
