Yup, although the downside is that your posting style definitely shows off that you’re a Mastodon user.

Your use of the @ tag, the hashtag are all markers of a more Twitter-like user experience, and it makes you post stand out somewhat oddly for those using one of the lemmy instances. Either way, it’s really neat to be able to cross between those, since I vastly prefer the Lemmy UX as opposed to Mastodon’s, but I can still get a Mastodon’s content!

Because it allows for proper prioritization of needs, allows for the better exploitation of our surroundings (as tool using animals), and is INCREDIBLY useful for helping us try to “model” other human’s behaviors and act as social animals as opposed to just being the regular kind.

Probably the most impact “Why” question probably started occurring before we were even human and it was “Why did they do that?”

Being able to understand the motivations of other beings is absolutely fucking incredibly overpowered both in terms of cooperative action with your fellows AND destructive action against foes/food sources.

As someone who helped to generate those types of answers and then deleted them all.

Fuck Reddit, they didn’t pay me for that work and then they dicked me over in chase of a half penny. Sorry the rest of the world doesn’t get to use my work for free, but Reddit broke the agreement. I post content, they provide a good user experience. They failed their end, I rescinded mine.

Brother, pretty much every single woman I know under the age of 40 plays, at the very minimum, Stardew Valley, Minecraft, and Terraria. Most of them also play other big games, like Dark Souls, Elden Ring, etc.

The genre that the mostly don’t play though are modern “arena” style shooters like Call of Duty, Halo, CSGO, Rainbow Six, etc. They’re far more likely to play something like Fortnite or Hunt or something where you can have a small squad to roll with. Typically because it means they don’t have to deal with anywhere near the same number of toxic random assholes.

No, it’s just a matter of who they accept as legitimate “authority”.

If the Dumbass-in-Chief, their ministers, and their news had all told them to wear masks, they absolutely would have, but every single one of their primary authority sources were pulling in different directions and they don’t accept any “liberal” sources as legitimate authority. You can see it at a much smaller scale by looking at Church congregation sizes where some ministries focused on trying to protect their elderly and infirm members and those who didn’t.

Conservatives who had pastors who told them to wear masks were a LOT more likely to do so than ones who were getting mixed messaging.

It has a pretty severe memory leak issue during the period where Chrome siphoned off most of its users.

Yeah, because the shitheads lied about the job.

“Oh, yeah, you have to go to remote sites, but the average is only about a 20 minute commute.”

And then once they gave me the job, they assigned me nothing but clients that were all 60+ minutes out of town. I interviewed with other companies on the clock and then quit with no notice.

Fucking assholes.

Most FromSoftware games.

Absolutely love the lore and writing, love the environments and character designs and atmosphere. It’s a shame that I mostly find the games to be a boring slog to actually play.

So I watch Let’s Players and while they do the fighting, I can take the time to really enjoy how well-polished everything is and throw open the wiki and read through item flavor text or other bits of info.

Cause they were annoying as shit, and only a small class of users even liked them in the first place.

Back in the 90s, a lot of forums would also ban your ass if you had an obnoxious signature to boot.

You should consider setting up a small donation to the site, if you can afford it. If you throw $5 a month at them, you’re not only covering your own hosting fees, but covering for some of the folks who can’t afford to as well. And maybe Ruud gets to buy some beans.

Why would we need to do that when there are plenty of Iraqi folk who wanted to do it already?

What’s stopping Reddit from just nuking it and deleting all the posts in one day?

He’s gonna get poisoned within a month.

As much as people refuse to accept it, there does exist a middle point in life of “It’s okay”.

Oh interesting, so it seems like the actual winning play is to swish with water and a bit of toothpaste probably, since it contains a small amount of base to help negate the acid.

Based on the article, it’s the mechanical brushing part that makes it bad.

I use the hand trick with the sun.

4 fingers between the sun and the horizon is about an hour. From time to time, I just take a measurement.

For every 4 fingers of additional height until noon is an hour, from every 4 fingers of less height after noon is an hour.

Edit: One of the best times to check if when you’re at the top of a water slide tower, since they usually give you a nice view of the horizon.

That’s probably the optimal play, yeah.

Make sure to brush your teeth afterward and don’t make a habit of it. Acid damage will fuck your teeth up real good if you’re turning to this regularly.

Depending on how many gummy worms and their manner of entrance, they will potentially expedite themselves.
