The digital national ID is not corporate or government snooping. If you believe it is, I don’t think this conversation can continue. What it is, is what’s needed to log into your doctors system to schedule an appointment, or the schools system to read updates about your kids, or to log into your online banking. All of that, and more, in my country, is using the same ID system, which won’t work on a rooted android phone (at least, I haven’t been able to make it work for the past 3-4 major versions).

Yes but do they support the digital national ID and SSO apps that are (only) avaliable for android and apple? Until they do, a lot of users are going to be locked into those two big OS vendors. 😞

You could definitely use lemmy for dating if you wanted to. But dating apps offer eg. geographic filtering and (at least should!) do a much better job of guiding users to make meaningful profiles. Lemmy has no need for such.

Agreed, OkC used to be quite all right but they took away so much of what made it unique.

I would be interested in such scripts. Why not share them here? 🙏

I looked into this not too long ago. Got them to share their user profile numbers - 50k - but I’ve a strong feeling that the majority of those are dummy test profiles.

That is depressingly insightful. See also: the internal war on everyone who isn’t a middle-aged white cis het man (and even some of them, too). Just negativity all around.

What really brings me down it’s the certainty that even if that is guy was suddenly not there anymore, there is a whole gaggle of like folk ready to continue that same rhetoric. How do you even dig yourselves out of that?

I have commented stuff like this before, and gotten it deleted (or gotten summarily banned). I have been searching for spaces where this sort of discourse is even allowed, where non-vagina-havers get to say that many men suck but it’s not only their fault and they certainly can’t fix it in a vacuum.

For any pro sport known for rowdy, destructive fans - the clubs get to pay for the police and insurance expenses.

Oh, this would bankrupt the clubs, I hear you say? Oh no. Anyway…!

Back to the future

What mates you think I was overkill to replace a ceo?

🙂 Thank you for bringing up a fun memory.

That’s a solid “The entire Caramba” album.

You might’ve heard (of) Habba Habba Zoot Zoot; well, they made an entire album of “plausible sounding” songs in German, Japanese, Finish, American, Russian, etc. It’s really quite hilarious.

Here’s a Spotify link: https://open.spotify.com/artist/57BijyLUDfabkaaSwZsxsS

I’d pay good money, and sign whatever necessary, to get to relive the latter part of your third point. So many fun things got removed, not all of it for good reason…

HyperCard! There’s a name I haven’t heard in a while. It was marvellous, for its time.

I’m appalled to see it compared to some shitty MS product (that I have no knowledge of), and I’ll just add that I have never encountered our hard of this bonkers “previous page is still active” issue in HyperCard - but I readily believe it’s there in 365.

Without a doubt, the bar in Ulence Flats! Different live bands on stage, very eclectic, always recognisable.

Edit: one example (in case time bookmark doesn’t work, skip to 9m 16s)

I love parking closer to the car on my right, where the passe doors face one another. If everyone did this, there would be so much more room to get in and out of vehicles.

And yes, I’m aware that not all cars are single occupant… but too many of them are.

Look, slack is 1000% better than Teams will ever be. But, Slack is also enshittifying themselves, eg. with their 3-month event horizon.

Anything Slack can do, Mattermost does – and Mattermost is free, open source, and self-hostable.

This is my hill.

And yet, her hands are poised for touch typing. Curious.

My sincere apologies, Mexico is definitely on the good list.

…and simply agrees to never, ever, set foot in North America.

I’m in.

Not sure, though, how this ploy would work out for our fine fellows in South America, Mexico, and Canada, the ones currently belabored with being the closest neighbours to The Wastelands.
