We also sometimes have to pay “pet rent”, and no this does not cover pet damages.

As a sole proprietor, yes we do.

Oh damn, that’s very interesting to hear. I avoided watching it so thanks for taking one for the team and reporting back.

What about the military parade shows disdain? Doesn’t it happening at all show support?

Maybe I’m wrong, but I would imagine tons of bot accounts being spun up just to wait for a bit would also be suspicious, right? But in that case they could be pruned before they did anything. I’m not a moderator, so don’t take anything I say as fact.

I think account age would be more useful than karma. Karma is just a game-able system, but I could see a very short age requirement being useful eventually if a lot of spam starts to happen. I don’t think we’re there yet, though.

Best we can do is put another one somewhere else

Absolutely, and I’m about ready to start identifying as that over American 🫠.

I usually think of BC being part of it, too, cause we’re so similar culturally, and we hang out on each other’s side of the made up invisible line all the time.

One can dream!

Washingtonian here, I’ve been saying this should happen for like 8 years now lmao

The marriage isn’t working. Let it go.

I use an instant pot and it works really well. I use it for other things too but honestly rice is probably what it gets used for the most.

You won’t regret it. They’re such a nice thing to have and there are totally decent ones for pretty cheap.

Helldivers PSN account requirement incoming

Don’t worry, it will. I’m a designer and the one thing you can count is all of us designers get bored every few years and flip things around. That’s how buttons keep shifting from rounded corners to square corners every few years.

This article is really badly written…

For some reason doing it that way sounds extra fancy to us. At least it does to me. More formal I guess?

I can’t say it matters to me that much what order it’s in, but that’s just the same order we say it in when fully written out. March 23, 2025. 03/23/2025.

Wasn’t there an article on here just the other day saying it had been sold to someone else? Glad to hear they’re indie either way. We need more of that in all forms of journalism these days.

It was the “so others find you interesting” part I was reacting to. It sounds like that’s not what you meant, so don’t worry about it.

People worry far too much about what others think of them and what mold they should fit into.

Become proficient in one or more things so others find you interesting.

No offense, cause I think your message is good overall, but you contradict yourself in the same paragraph.

Trying to learn things so others will like you more isn’t a great way to do it. I know because I tried that. My self-love became conditional with that mindset, and there was always something else I could come up with I had to learn or change about myself before I could be lovable.

My old therapist called me out on it. He said there’s nothing wrong with pushing yourself to improve, but if you don’t balance that with unconditional self love it will simply lead to depression.

I’m happy to see someone else pushing back against the inevitability line I see so much around this tech. It’s still incredibly new and there’s no guarantee it will continue to improve. Could it? Sure, but I think it’s equally likely it could start to degrade instead due to ai inbreeding or power consumption becoming too big of an issue with larger adoption. No one actually knows the future and it’s hardly inevitable.
