Aww! Here’s one of my cuties
something183786@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do people end up winning lawsuits against companies due to a missing label or sign?English11·7 months agoI think the laundromat case is more “don’t complain to management when you’re stuff gets stolen” than it is about preventing lawsuit.
something183786@lemmy.worldto Funny: Home of the Haha@lemmy.world•Gaming logic be likeEnglish12·11 months agoI’ve finally figured out this logic!! The developer must be a wheelchair user. Most wheelchair users would find that impossible to pass without help.
something183786@lemmy.worldto Gaming@lemmy.ml•Do you know any singleplayer games that are infinitely replayable?English301·1 year agoFTL. It’s a simple fun cheap game. Steam says I’ve played this for over 3,000 hours!
something183786@lemmy.worldto Antiwork@lemmy.world•Is this normal for a company to impose these?English50·1 year agoIf you are in the US, that’s likely very illegal. Wherever you are, talk to your state, Providence, federal, etc. labor board.
something183786@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Kevin McCarthy is ousted as House speaker in a historic vote pushed by conservativesEnglish101·2 years agoThe rules of the 118th Congress state that "in the case of a vacancy in the office of speaker, the next member" named on a list submitted by McCarthy to the clerk of the House in January will become speaker pro tempore until a speaker is elected. A House reading clerk announced immediately after the vote that Rep. Patrick McHenry of North Carolina was the first name on McCarthy's list and therefore was appointed speaker pro tempore.
"Pending such election, the member acting as speaker pro tempore may exercise such authorities of the Office of Speaker as may be necessary and appropriate to that end," the rules state. The requirement of a list appears to have originated with the 108th Congress that convened in January 2003.
After the speaker pro tempore takes over, "presumably, the next order of business would be to choose a speaker," Green said. He pointed out that "it's unlikely the House would continue to operate as usual without a new speaker being selected."

More seating would absolutely help many. It just depends what challenges life has thrown their way.

( cerebellar stroke patient )1·2 years agoThey demo’ed that it should catch you falling forward, and the seatbelt will hold you. I’m not sure about sideways. Obviously, we haven’t tested either as scenario.
It’s biggest limitations are hills and off-road. It can go any place a normal unpowered wheelchair can go. My wife has used the Zeen on grass… possible but exhausting!

My wife recently got one, and had found it liberating. Her condition has caused both balance and stamina issues. We used to bring both a walker and a wheelchair everywhere we went. Her Zeen has made a major improvement in both our lives.
