For the online side of things, there are actually social platforms designed specifically for wealthy people. For instance, there’s Raya, which is an invite-only dating app that only allows celebrities as members. The platform was kept “secret” by making it accessible only through an iPhone app, whose description in the App Store was intentionally vague and boring, to discourage any plebs from bothering to install it. Raya is just one of many secret “elite” social platforms that most of us have never even heard of. The wealthy live in a completely different reality from us.

This is some Black Mirror shit.

Denim doesn’t hold onto dyes nearly as well as other materials. This makes it more prone to fading in pretty much all circumstances, even through normal wear, such as fading in the creases of your knees. The detergents will also break down the fibers of the denim, causing it to rip more easily. Because of this, you really should only wash it when it’s visibly dirty or has a bad smell.

I’ve got a pair of jeans that I wear nearly every day. Have had them for about seven years. Washed them maybe seven times. The denim is still in excellent condition. Granted, I don’t do a lot of physical labor in these jeans, but I do walk around town quite often in them. They still look and feel like they’re only a week old.

When they’re visible dirty. Otherwise, if they just stink but are otherwise clean, I fold them up and put them in the freezer overnight.

Washing damages the denim, reducing its lifespan. It leads to color fading and tearing.

Because you are smiling at the fünny joke

Perhaps OP is a Marxist and/or Leninist.

Friendica says “hello”.

the childlike whimsy that Misskey has.

This, so much. I really wish I could read Japanese, because the really active Misskey instances look genuinely fun to be on. It reminds me a lot of the OMGPOP days, which I miss dearly.

On Mbin, it shows as just a regular upvote. Emoji votes would also be a great change, too! I like the way Misskey-like instances use them.

I think votes should honestly be a bit more like old school SlashDot voting, where you had several different types of votes you could leave on a comment like Insightful, Funny, Helpful, etc. Have a few negative ones like Bad Faith Argument, Spam, Advertisement, etc. And also like old school /., you’d have a limited amount of votes you can give. Make them replenish once per day, or have users earn additional votes for receiving positive votes on their comments, or something along those lines.

That would prevent bombing an entire comment thread with downvotes, and provides much-needed context for any given comment’s score.

Wouldn’t rerouting be more fuel-intensive in most scenarios, though? I feel like burning more fuel to make fewer clouds isn’t the right play.

Pretty sure this is fake. Either BBNO$ is getting scammed, or this is a publicity stunt. I couldn’t find any record of a Kashya Campbell at Blizzard, or anywhere at all for that matter. Pretty much every reference I find for this name comes back to BBNO$'s Instagram post. There’s no pages on Google with the string “Kashya Campbell” older than 12 hours.

I’m not AI stupid.

So just the regular kind of stupid?

I think you underestimate how popular AI dating has become lately.

And you all really thought she had a better chance than sleepy Joe?

Nobody thought that. We weren’t given a choice, though.

Won’t happen. Google ran YouTube at a net loss for a decade before turning a profit. Very few companies have the kind of money to invest like that. Video hosting is crazy expensive, especially when it’s free.

Depends on the task, I’d say. Are you trying to execute a combatant in the arena? Or are you trying to self flagellate?

I have to imagine that anybody savvy enough to make the decision to install a third-party launcher is also savvy enough to immediately uninstall that shit.
