Paradox of tolerance

I never owned a 486 either. My first upgrade after the 286 was a Pentium.

Same in my company. Acknowledging that you’ve seen the message and are looking into it.

It’s what confirmed she’s likely the target of harassment and not a spammer herself.

All the images look like screenshots taken during video calls. Also some people did some research and found the potential identity of the spammer (based on one of the accounts used) and maybe even the woman herself (coworker of the guy).

Not sure what that distinction would look like. But it should look more honest.

Just look at all MMOs. Everybody knows the game will only last as long as the servers are alive and that all you’re downloading is a game client. Even if it’s a one time purchase and no subscription (e.g. Elder Scrolls Online), its very clear you’re only buying access to the game (usually part of the game content, other parts cost extra), not the game itself.

Sometimes it’s been a while since I last checked the feed and I go for Top 12 hours

Same here. I wasn’t even using a 3rd party app, just left because of the shitty behavior. Uninstalled the app and never logged in again. I was on Reddit daily, I’m on Lemmy daily now.

We don’t need to, but I noticed at one point that he’s mostly seeing female leads. We read a bunch of the books in your list, many others we avoided because they’re no longer in line with current times (and they’re not old enough to understand the historical context), and a bunch of them are not for their age yet.

Same for kids books. It’s great for my daughter, but it’s hard to find good movies and books for her younger brother.

It says Times Square. Manhattan is one of the walkable places in the US where carrying groceries is actually something you can see.

“Care e diferența dintre un porc și o râmă? Porcul râmă, dar râma nu porc”.

It’s not translatable directly because in Romanian there’s a word for digging with the snout. That word is the same word as the word for earthworm. So it goes like “What’s the difference between a pig and an earthworm? The pig digs (earthworms), but the earthworm doesn’t pig.”

In English there’s one very similar in concept: “What is the difference between a fly and a flea? A fly can flee, but a flea can’t fly.”

that allow one to throw an object to capture a monster

Like throwing a net to catch a fish?

That was a culture shock for me when I moved to the US. I knew that back in the day, in rural areas of my country, the markets only opened once a week. I was shocked to find that happen in urban/suburban areas in the US. Back home I could just go to the closest market any day. Morning news would have a report comparing prices in different markets across the city, so you could pick the one that has the best price for what you need that day.

They have rules against using their services for that kind of stuff. Once they’re made aware of the rules being broken (which they were), they should enforce the rules by stopping service. The same as if you report CSAM on a website to the hosting service and they take down the site. The hosting service is not the one accountable, but it would get in trouble if it comes out they knew about it and didn’t do anything.

Yes, that was my first thought. Then I saw him turn around and do it a second time.

I’ve been PC gaming since 8-bit computers. I eventually bought an Xbox One as my first console and a Switch some years ago. I just couldn’t get into either of them after the initial novelty wore off. PC gaming is so much more convenient for me. I’m already at my PC, I just need to start a game. And I can multi-task with other apps in the background or on my second monitor. Going to the living room to play on a console on the TV, or switching inputs if I keep it attached to my PC monitor, both are too much hassle. I only ever use the XBox for Just Dance (nothing beats Kinect for it) and I’ve played many more hours of Switch games on an emulator on my PC than on the actual Switch.

If it’s a beginner trying to learn those commands, definitely the latter.

If it’s a beginner trying to set up their environment for the actual thing they’re trying to learn, then a fire and forget single command is more user-friendly.

its worse than lemmy

I recently was looking for help troubleshooting an issue and ended up checking reddit and I was shocked at just how bad it got. There were AI generated comments that seemed to provide a solution, but the link went to some spam URL instead of the product they were supposedly talking about (and these were recent comments, not old dead links). The kind of stuff you used to see on unmoderated comment sections on WordPress sites that nobody maintained.
