If this were Facebook I would say this is a bot harvesting user locations for advertising profiles...

What's the percentage on transgender people? 1% or lower? Way lower, even. I say we open the gates and accept as many as want to come in. Couldn't be more than a couple million people.

I find just snipping off the skin tags with clippers keeps it from going too far.

I'm not convinced about the cost. A kilogram of borax seems to run about $10CAD. 2 cups, at 1.7g/CC, would be about 850g, so $7 just for the Borax. Unless there's a much cheaper place to get it...

A ~5L jug of Tide costs $31, or about $6/L. If they have approximately equivalent cleaning power per volume, Tide wins.

As a native speaker, fuck, fuck this fucking language.

I've noticed that every different social media medium/site has its own Eternal September moment. I think, optimistically, that we're still before that point. If we get popular and the general population arrives, it'll also attract the predatory ecosystem of state actors and corporate bullshit.

I think Lemmy and the Fediverse in general is resistant to that, but not immune. I expect an effort to create One Big Instance that most people use, or an oligarchy of large instances working together, like Microsoft and Gmail and co do with email.

I feel like someone would get mad if you built a place, started foraging and planting wheat, maybe hauled in some solar panels, but I don't know US law.

"The Long Dark". Knowing the maps by heart and being able to navigate by landmarks is key to survival.

Manual save made sense when a disk write froze the program for seconds and engaged the disk drive with sounds (which I miss a little; very reassuring) but today autosave ought to be fully expected. LibreOffice really should've had it on by default.

Is this the same guy who (supposedly) specifically chose the name Lululemon because Asian people would have a hard time pronouncing it?
