If they do, then may the old gods and the new have mercy on your hole

Soon to be shitting bricks, eh?

That’s ridiculous. I’ve never had optical camouflage, advanced weaponry, and I’ve never hunted a human.

Love for penguins

I don’t dislike the Adam’s Family nor the Munsters, but I have blocked both communities because they each had a ton of submissions on the same day, and they were dominating my feed.

There’s nothing wrong with slowly submitting content. Submitting too much, too quickly makes it hard to distinguish from spam.

Just my opinion. I understand that you are looking to build something, and therefore you disagree on submission frequency.

There’s no meaningful difference in the eyes of the law. When she turns 18, then that’s different.

You’re suggesting he kidnaps a minor?

Exceptionally bad advice

You want all this from someone you say is highly suicidal. You understand that you would be setting yourself up for failure, don’t you?

If she’s not in a good place, then your relationship will suffer. You need to be realistic here.

Ah, okay. I see now. “Snake handler” generally refers to a professional, but the subject of the article was described as a former truck mechanic. I just didn’t process that in the correct order.

I just opened the article again and searched for “handler,” which has zero results?

What am I missing? Was there a video I didn’t watch?

Not one mention of how this guy got his hands on so many different snake venoms in order to acquire this broad immunity. Interesting dude nonetheless.

I hear you. I don’t know about the rest of the apps, but Voyager has a fairly robust set of filter options. I regularly block things for non-dramatic reasons (like I just have zero interest in a specific subject that gets a lot of posts).

I’m not sure about using Lemmy through a web browser and what options that affords.

Linus was a total idiot in that video. It was embarrassing.

Astounding. This is why I got away from sysadmin work. Dealing with Microsoft products kills my enjoyment of computing.

And that’s all most people want from a computer, yet Windows always throws a curve ball at some point.

I just made this same basic point in response to another comment, but this is exactly right. It takes effort to learn anything new, and that effort isn’t always worth it to people. But that alone doesn’t make using Linux “hard.”

Waaaay easier on a longer timeline too! I first used Linux in the late 90s when the things the author of this piece talks about were true. You really did need to understand more than an average computer user just to get Linux installed.

That hasn’t been the case in a long, long time now, at least not with the easier distros.

What articles like this often fail to discuss is that Windows took effort for everyone to learn at some point too. Same with macOS. Same with your smart phone.

Learning anything requires effort, and not everyone wants to invest that effort - which is totally okay if they already get what they need from whatever they’re already using. But I wish that people would stop exaggerating how hard Linux is to learn simply because it will require effort.

As far as I can recall, there will simply be a note on your credit report that the collection is contested. For the small credit union where I worked, contested or not, you were disqualified for all loans and credit.

I haven’t worked in that industry in 15 years now, but I don’t imagine much has changed.

I hate our credit system and I think it needs to be torn down. It’s predatory and we don’t even attempt to educate people about how it works (or we didn’t when I was in school).

Right, but they can still damage your credit first. Also, lawyers aren’t cheap and your time isn’t free. Better not to take a flippant approach to this.
