This would make a ton of sense if your choice of Lemmy instance were not just that; a choice. It’s not a characteristic innate to your being that you’re born with or something.
You can choose to associate with whatever instance you want and swap it up with another account somewhere else if you want at any time (you can prob keep the same username if you want too).
I spent >10 years of my youth playing a sport competitively. I don’t think I ever watched a professional game to completion. Unlike pretty much all my teammates, I just could not have cared less.
Play the sport myself? Fun, sure! Watch someone else play? Uh, why?
I think it’s great that people enjoy watching sports. I dunno why but it just bored the hell out of me.
As of a few years ago at least, most Taiwanese people were in favour of keeping relations as they are and neither expanding nor severing Chinese relations from status quo. They already operate as their own country, so a push towards further separation is mostly only symbolic anyway and they don’t want to provoke China and their current peace for a symbolic gesture. I think that by treating Taiwan as its own country but not identifying it as such, we are acting as most Taiwanese wish.

I really want to downvote this but I can’t bring myself to do it.
You need context from the show to get this meme. This episode is a satire on how women who molest minors are treated differently and how some people are inclined to congratulate the molested instead of seeing them as victims.
It’s not nice, and we need to view the attitude of situations like this being “nice” as messed up. Hence the meme.
Yeah, last point is very true. I can already tell this girl is gonna have a good father regardless if he applies anything from this thread or not, given he cares enough and has the humility to ask.
You’re reminding me of when I was in my teens and discovered 1kg M&Ms bags on Amazon…I bought 3. I wonder how many years off my life that accounts for…
Which Smarties?
Edit: Ah wait…“pure sugar” gives it away. Apologies but that was not the correct answer 🙃
The literal way to read what you wrote is to never ask Flatpak, in order:
The only reason no one thinks this is what you mean is because of how many people also mess this up.
Just want to add that Mullvad DNS may have high latency depending on where you’re browsing from, slowing down your browsing experience. Their public DNS servers are pretty sparse, unlike their VPN servers.
True, but even if Steam were to offer a x% lower cut on sales for Linux users if the developer makes a Linux-native build, it’d still not entice many to build and maintain a native port if they are only saving x% off a tiny y% of users. Other poster’s point being that incentives like this would actually become enticing to companies when Linux market share (Proton users) increases.
Doubtful Steam is gonna offer a share cut on all sales when it runs on Proton for the 2% of userbase using Linux, and from that only a minority would care whether or not it’s native anyway.
I don’t really have anything to add, but thanks for writing this. It’s quite insightful.
It’s not considered worth undertaking such an initiative when most nuclear power plants have no problem just leaving the heavy (solid concrete and steel) casks as they are. They are not some looming threat, and they just sit there, outside, taking up a pretty small amount of space on the plants’ property. Nothing else is done because there is no real incentive to move them; no one cares.
In a few months though I can handle a change or gap in insurance though so I’ve got a light at the end of the tunnel at least
This is just so fucked. In no way do I mean on your end, but just that the system begets inhumane situations like this.
Never thought a single non-canadian would have even heard of Corner Gas lol
WTF is the screen scaling set to on that laptop?
damn, you might get me back on Windows if it feel like that 🥴
Took me until high school to realize bonjour=bon jour=good day. My brain just about exploded. Worldview destroyed.
