Sure enough! Thanks, that was fun to watch again.

Isn’t that step two?

I feel like step one was “get a box,” but I could be misremembering.

Fine. Use a word for it that isn’t a bigoted slur.

I’m with you right up to the ageism. The folks who persecuted Aaron were older than him, but they were not boomers, and what they did had nothing to do with his age or theirs.

Bigotry is always wrong.

I thought there was a whole movement going on among the “youngs,” where they were specifically getting old flip phones that couldn’t run any apps. I heard about that trend more than a year ago, so it’s probably long passed.

I don’t bath like you

It doesn’t necessarily make a non-negative, but I’m not disliking it none.

Most “silent” letters have some effect on the pronunciation of the word. They aren’t there for no reason.

I don’t see them there.

Best thing about Mastodon is no insidious algorithm forcing stuff on you to specifically make you angry.

There are soo many things that dogs would find very confusing, if they had the capacity to analyze that way. What if they knew that all of our interpersonal interactions were governed mostly by ego, shame, and pride?

I miss the “showerthoughts” of old.

You may have had this thought in the shower, but I don’t think that’s what this community is actually about.

I truly hate that phones don’t readily have file browsers and folders, and when you do add them, they aren’t effective. Mostly that would be useful when moving files between phone and computer. It’s not simple even to get the computer to mount the phone’s drive, probably because everyone is fine with having all their files “in the cloud.”

I’ve never heard “as the crow flies” used that way. It is always used to talk about distance, not direction.

I use Mulvad, and seeding seems to work for me. Am I missing something?

Many here will be seeing this for the first time. For others it will be a fun reminder of something they haven’t seen for a long time. Still others will find it to be the same old tired shit they’re sick of.

When you see the same old tired shit on Lemmy (or any social media), just move on. There will be plenty that is new to you.

Electing someone who believes that we should have laws and enforce them is exactly what we should do.

When she was a prosecutor, it was not her job to change the laws or decide which ones to enforce. If we don’t want non-violent drug users and truants prosecuted, then we should change those laws. We have a process for that, and it doesn’t include prosecutors making those decisions for us.

I thought the situation was a little like Android. Google develops an open source version (along with as many independent developers who wish to contribute), then sticks on a bunch of proprietary BS and sells that version to phone companies. If chromium is to chrome like vanilla android is to android with g-services, then I guess my question really becomes: is google making this change in the underlying code base, or just in the BS they put on top?

Or am I confused about how the connection works between chrome and chromium?

Will this change be implemented in Chromium too? Or will it / should it finally become independent of Chrome?

“Unlock the door” is a really strange way to say “lock the door.” What a dolt.
