Considering Cheetahs cannot run at 95mph, metric is the safe bet.

It’s a handful of addons (open source, available to be added via files) rather than the whole browser that are now available in Russia. Seems better to cut loss there and remain available as long as a workaround exists I’d think?

So I typed out a long reply with helpful tips and everything but Lemmy broke and I couldn’t send that, and I really can’t be arsed again, this is already too much effort.

Massage/Wellness: your posture sucks and your back hurts all the time because you have a flabby gut and no ass. Get to exercising.

Motorcycles. That’s what else

increase of distraction and time wasting inefficiencies.

Yea fuck having fun

We’ve already established that Tiktok Tok is not the CCP. That’s what the whole first “gonna ban TikTok” fiasco was over. It’s why they don’t store US data in China but continue to do business in the US.

That would be a business using the 1st amendment right (which everyone gets, not just citizens) to free speech to use it’s platform to ask it’s users to do something directly beneficial to them. Nothing illegal about it unless you want to reevaluate that “TikTok is the CCP” claim again.

Lemmy really seems to generally think that TikTok isn’t massively overall popular. Lemmy would have someone thinking it’s a niche app only being used by teenagers.

First off, source? Second, the npr interview I heard mentioned specifically that China has to approve the sale because the algorithm is proprietary to a Chinese company. So anyone “buying TikTok” is buying a name and none of the actual bones of the social media platform

Imagine defending Kid Rock… He isn’t even good music…

You’re suggesting subscriptions… On Lemmy…? Good luck lol.

Low tip for takeout. Usually 10ish%. I’m also a high tipper at restaurants in general, food service in particular is shit work where you’re treated badly and paid garbage. “It’s not my responsibility to pay their employees” always sounded cheap to me. Either you can’t afford it or you’re cheap, if you claim to have any sympathy for minimum wage employees, you tip well. If you don’t like tipping (because you’re cheap or can’t afford it, neither of which is wrong), you push for legal change and don’t punish the fellow worker in front of you.

Usually by using the most generous estimates that come from looking at the statistical differences between stats like actual reports and results from anonymous studies, that’s just 2 examples, I’m sure staticians use way more data, and then turn that into “for every reported x, there’s y unreported” then you just apply the pre-algebra and compare the adjusted number to which ever stat for women (the unfair answer here is then not adjusting for unreported in women, which would probably be a lower number than men but still)

It’s jerkey, specifically dried meat, pretty sure they’re silica packets

Huh, you talking about it made me realize I do this! I have a very, very short tongue, so maybe that adds to it? Do you happen to be able to rumble your ears?

i said I cant survive for 3 months without pay, I have a mortgage and they looked me in the eye and said:

“well, you probably shouldn’t have signed the contract then 🙂”

That’s the type of response that would get some people stabbed with the nearest pointed object available.

I really don’t get this argument regardless of which way things “should be”.

Even and independent Activision-Blizzard under Microsoft would have overlap with HR or something. I can’t imagine leaving them “independent” wasn’t going to entail some trimming of fat.

Maybe I’m late but I recommend Speak by Queensryche, it’s about revolution. The entire album Operation Mindcrime is a rail against religion and capitalism told through a character recruited into an underground revolution. It’s very good and a song that contains the lines “educate the masses” and “burn the Whitehouse down” gets a thumbs up from me

I’ve been seeing this on Lemmy lately, why are people going to roman numerals? Do we hate Arabic now? It’s not saving keystrokes unless I’m crazy?

That’s cuz it’s Stellaris rules sooooo >_>

Of course the fanatic spiritualists oppose Al, it’s a blocked tech path for them.
