They’re an international spy, obviously.

I prefer votes being semi-anonymous. The vote counts are technically public, you just have to use software that displays them, but that added barrier is enough for most people to never check and that is how I prefer it. I feel like seeing voter names just encourages getting into pissing contests about “why did you downvote me” which I don’t want to happen because: A, votes don’t matter and B, if someone downvoted without commenting they probably don’t want to spend half an hour arguing in comments.

It’ll be interesting to see how things play out with Lemmy instances when Reddit bans porn.

Especially as many Lemmy instances don’t want to host or moderate NSFW content. I don’t blame them, but I’m also doubtful pornlemmy alone could handle the load (pun intended).

Welcome to Lemmy.ca! You chose well, we’ve got a pretty good admin team here.

That makes sense, it’s probably the same people writing both messages.

Check r/conservative and you get a fair idea.

Looking good! I don’t want to think about how long it took to get all those drawers spaced and leveled properly but the effort was worth it.

Don’t make the same mistake I did. Get a backup in place before using ZFS. Using ZFS and RAIDing your drives together makes them a singular failure point. If ZFS fucks up, you’re done. The only way to mitigate this is having another copy in a different pool and preferably different machine. I got lucky that my corrupted ZFS pool was still readable and I could copy files off, but others have not been so lucky.

To expand on what Grappling said, I’ll give you an example. A few years ago the city repaved a decrepit section of road into a smooth and wide open road that is wide enough for 4 lanes but made into 2 wide ones with massive shoulders. There are no pedestrians on this road and you can comfortably go 80-100km/h. The speed limit they set? 50. While it’s not every road, it is definitely a lot of roads that get treated like this. It results in getting very comfortable with breaking the speed limits because the speed limits are stupid not matched to the designs of the roads.

I’d rather die with my morals intact than survive by using others as stepping stones.

… oh. It begins then. Thank you for the multiple links!

Jaywalking isn’t inherently unsafe. You can still get run over in a crosswalk and crossing earlier in the block when traffic is light can be safer. That isn’t to say I recommend it though.

Uh, I missed this one. Someone got the backstory?

Minor nit pick from my experience. If the word is written out “could have” I enunciate the entire word. I only pronounce the contraction “could’ve” as “could of”. And vice versa when dictating.

Been sleeping the majority of the last 36 hours in between emptying my stomach, so not too hot. I really should not go into work today but I probably will anyway.

I would think many servers that accept donations don’t rely on them. But taking donations while it is optional can stave off the time when donations would be necessary.

Oh, you weren’t given an invite to the skibidi toilet conference? Eesh, sorry man, the rest of us all got one.

Removing news from your regular feeds or taking a break from them for a week is chill, everyone should do that here and there. But don’t bury your head in the sand, you should keep an eye on it even if that is only browsing a dedicated news feed every week or two. Ignorance and complacency is how we got Trump 2024 with people actively voting against themselves.

Step 1: don’t browse the All feed. I dunno how Reddit was okay for you, visiting r/all was always full of Trump this Trump that every 5 minutes.

Find a parking lot and “drift” my FWD car babyyy
