Lemmy is a link aggregator. Reddit is as well. Sure, Reddit has started to generate a lot more OC over the last decade, but it took over a decade for that to pick up momentum and gain millions of active users. I don’t want a mindless cesspool of half-assed OC. I mostly just want an easy one-stop-shop for news, memes, and discussions.
But… The business owners stating that the proposed street was dangerous is exactly what you just quoted…? I didn’t say you were worried about the business owners.
Never had an issue with that word, but God damnit if “occasion” doesn’t get me just about every time. “Is it 1 C and 2 S’s, or 2 C’s and 2 S’s…?” I remember after writing it down wrong, of course. Stupid English.
Whoa, you’re upsetting the pitchfork mob by agreeing that the business owners might just have a genuine concern.
I’ve met plenty of very athletic, strict diet people who snore. Tons of variables are to be considered as to what causes it.
To the OP’s question: It depends. Again, lots of variables. If they have any concerns, they should talk to a doctor and not rely solely on answers from the Internet when it comes to medical questions.
I hope this story is true. It’s still funny as hell, regardless!
How dare you, my drunk uncle is completely capable of boiling the oceans! He was even boasting about it at our last family dinner!
Yeah, banning by IP from such a big website is pretty silly on the site admin’s part. Tons and tons of places share 1 to a small handful of IPs (e.g. apartment complexes, school dorms, etc).
A hotel in Augusta, Georgia. I had to come into town for a 2 week training event for my job. Unfortunately, it was occurring at the same time as the Master’s tournament, so finding a hotel was virtually impossible. The one my work booked for me was easily in the top 3 grossest accommodations I’ve ever had, and I’ve deployed to combat zones in the Army. Waking up in the middle of the night to my bed and walls covered in roaches still haunts me to this day. And when I say covered, I don’t mean a few. I mean covered.
It’s not any worse than Chrome, which isn’t saying much. Firefox is still the best user friendly browser, IMO.
Goo Gone is what I’ve used for years. It’s quite effective at the getting rid of the super stubborn ones.
This is amazing, hahah
Try using the extension that can spoof what browser you’re using. Last year, Firefox was being hindered by YouTube until I downloaded that and made it think I was using a Chrome browser.
Ahh, good to know. It’s hard to keep up with their constitutional crises blitzkrieg.
Not to mention that both the SCOTUS and other courts have ordered this administration to cease deporting people without due process, which they’ve unsurprisingly have gone on to ignore.
Especially when both that city’s mayor and state governor explicitly do not want those troops there.
Or, like my old, late cat (RIP buddy 😞), they hate most humans and other animals. Once he warmed up to you, he would absolutely get lonely without his favorites around. Didn’t care if our dog was around or not, despite our dog being sad for awhile after he died.
Just to clarify, properly trained and handled drug and bomb sniffing dogs do actually have quite a high accuracy rate. However, in the hands of shitty police officers… sigh.
Because the waitlist is often very long. On top of a limited supply, there are other limiting factors, e.g. if you’re already really old and sick, the organ that becomes available will likely go to a candidate that’s more likely to have a successful transplant instead, such as a healthier kid or something.
And I used it since ~2007. Sure, I’ll concede that OC existed back then, but expectations/standards were far lower. Simply starting topics or a meme template that hadn’t been done before were fine, often times even hailed. Two broken arms, jollyrancher, coconut, whatever other gross ass viral thing weren’t even pictures/videos, they were comments and/or text posts. They became Reddit legends/mythos/lore, regardless.
Anyway, that type of OC isn’t going to invigorate the masses like it used to. Any of those stories nowadays would be met with heavy cynicism/skepticism (rightfully so, I might add). I guess my point is, Lemmy has only been somewhat known for a couple of years. It takes a lot of time to build momentum. Reddit continues to enshittify ever further, just like Digg did. Times are different now, there’s a fuckton of competition in this type of social media format. What will make it successful is hard to say for certainty. I think sticking to link aggregation and topical discussions is a good start.
