Given a non insignificant amount of women migrated to Bluesky because of thinly veiled threats of SA from xitter; meeting strange blokes online probably isn’t high on the “must do” list. Hell even without the xitter shitfight that probably holds.

Even if a guy is just being platonic or speaking in a similar manner to a woman

This probably comes from a life with no shortage of blokes trying to get their foot in the door under the guise of “friendship”.

I don’t see how those statements are incongruent or worthy of being particularly funny. Must be a parent thing I guess.

That gives an eternity of time to a mischievous 2yo kid #3 to grab the shiny toy so carelessly dropped without being locked GASP! and then tap not just twice but >100 times.

See my hand wave remark. I may not have kids but am old enough that a few of my mates are starting. I’ll ask one if he thinks this series of incredibly unlikely events (that ignore lock after time limit, face ID for payment methods, common sense) would work with his child but I suspect the response will be laughter.

Far more likely is people giving these devices to children inappropriately and them figuring this stuff out rather than kids “mashing buttons” into purchasing things from Amazon. Do appreciate the classic “yOu MuSt NoT hAvE kIDs” response to literally any form of parental criticism though.

Maybe dad should have a passcode on his phone and banking apps? Literally no one can “get their mitts” on my phone and use it without my consent short of holding a gun to my head. So many of these parents seem to handwave responsibility from fictional scenarios.

I’d argue there’s a lot of similarities, since most people left due to Spez and the IPO. I left when Spez and co fucked over the Apollo app dev.

This excludes the tankie instances. I saw a lot of “death to Israel” and other shit before I filtered those instance that would probably have gotten them nuked on reddit. Stuff like that will be the main differences. Here there isn’t any worry about how marketable the platform is to advertisers. Which is mostly a good thing.

This is a question that’s probably better suited for the perchance comm.

Having been waiting what feels like forever for stalker 2; I would be happy if it gets it. I know there still work to do but fuck if I am not having a blast playing it. Dwarf fortress would be a nice one too even if its been around for nearly 2 decades.

“Disney has gone woke”.

Meanwhile Mary Poppins (made in the 60’s) straight up has a banger song “sister suffragette” and signs for women’s suffrage in it.

Lisdex for me works pretty well. Though I still need to make an effort to structure and plan thing out well. Worth talking to your doctor about, a dose change may be required. My GP mentioned the usual starting dose is commonly not sufficient but from understanding it’s mostly for helping with executive functioning stuff (procrastination as you mention); not really for improving memory. The votes are probably due to comparisons to senility and unnecessary reference to Biden as an aside.

It FEELS even worse than before, but I think that is because doing more means more error, more senile.

Still, even if it would stay like this, my life would have changed for the better.

These statements are also contradictory but the last one, if factual, is like worth focusing. These drugs aren’t “fix all”; lifestyle management (diet, sleep, etc) is still required.

Lmao. “Understandable, have a nice day sir”.

Yeah feels that way. The hand up feels more like he’s with a sparring partner than “enemy of the state”. He’s got a rifle slung and doesn’t feel like he even thinks the protester will go for it. Pretty level headed by all involved including the guy conducting the ol’ spineroo.

I mean props to him seemed like he was “wow yeah, fair enough”. In “other” countries that protester would have been beaten into a coma.

Fucking finally.

You’re most welcome, I only know beyond the click bait you mentioned because some YouTuber was transparent about learning how to make thumbnails for that purpose (maybe funhaus back in the day).

Aren’t immigrants different to “aliens”?? Immigrants, you know, immigrated. Aliens are people who are citizens of another country still and not in a given country legally from my limited understanding.

There are thumbnail “trends” that lead to videos performing better algorithms wise and this matches it. That and the stupid face the centre guy is pulling leads me to agree with the other commenter.

Fortunately there are resources that make a good starting point because I agree; naming schemes are a shit show. I generally start with this and go from there research wise. https://www.logicalincrements.com/

God that comment section is embarrassing to read.

Reminds me of my former employer. Would always give us time off when we requested it. Was always understanding if we needed time away or had issues going on that impacted us work. When I gave my 2 weeks notice I told him to call me if he needed cover as I knew him and his wife were going on holiday soon (the guy almost never takes proper time off). Nearly a month later he calls and mentioned one of his newer employees was out sick. Very enthusiastically agreed to come back for a week to cover them as I had started my own business. Lovely people and would always cover a skip like that in a heart beat. They’re few and far between.

As much as I don’t object to the “take your pills” sledge probably best to leave it be inferred rather than calling someone that. Just my (critically devalued) 2c.

Edit: Welp there goes my retirement fund.
