I shouldn’t engage but I can’t resist. The difference is thats what mods are for. They ban problematic users and there’s modlogs for transparency. There are power-tripping mods that are trigger happy with the ban, but it is up to them to do that.

Tesseract is an app which claims to access the fediverse. It doesn’t tell you what’s being censored or even that things are being censored. It presents them as technical issues. It’s not an apples to apples comparison.

I also don’t like cilantro…so I don’t add it to mine.

I really wanna make some pico de gallo though…

There’s a virus going around that is thought to be spread from raw vegetables like lettuce. You could just eat cooked veggies though.

I used to work in manufacturing in the auto industry. Everything is already metric in the US. People working on US made cars have the privilege of losing a 10mm socket just like the rest of the world.

Article 5 doesn’t apply to a member attacking another member. If it did, Greece and Turkey wouldve made the other members more nervous long before now.

Isn’t that the guy that made a bezos face boat?

Same with Chicago CTA. Not sure if they still do but I’ve definitely seen Mullvad ads on CTA.

Just to be clear, this “truck” is absolutely tiny. It’s several inches shorter than a Toyota Corolla. I think it’s pretty great for a city dweller that occasionally has a need for a bit more carrying capacity.

Edit: with the one big caveat that a lot of city dwellers don’t have access to charging at home.

Thanks for the thorough perspective! The specific space I was thinking of was a gay bar/gay club. There have been a few times when I’ve partied with a group that included a bunch of gay men. Then that group wanted to continue the night at a gay bar and invited me. Even with an invitation, it would feel like invading. I had no idea there was an ally flag. I’ll look into repping that.

Thanks for all the tips.

Queer people: I’m a cis straight man. Would it be ok for me to show some rainbow iconography to show support? I try not to put myself in gay spaces since that’s not for me. Idk if it would come across as like…stolen gay valor or something.

Side question: is it ok for me to refer to lgbtq+ people as queer? The acronym feels clunky but I’m not sure if this is a “we can say it but not you” situation.

I understand that the answers may not have broad agreement one way or another but I wanted to do at least a little bit of a temperature check.

I didn’t live through the 70s but my dad has told me multiple times that dazed and confused might as well be a documentary of that period.

Rappers write all sorts of bars. 2 Chainz is like 60% comedy, 40% trap. He’s quite silly while staying in character is a cool rich rapper guy.

These are great bars (okay maybe Kodak could’ve said something else). Many of them are meant to be punchlines. Far from whack bars.

Bladerunner 2049 is great. In that, he plays a self-absorbed sadistic rich asshole. Phenomenal casting if you ask me.

This is why I use keepass and sync thing for my setup

That’s all fine until you actually need the site. If it’s your bank, payment portal for your new apartment, scheduling page for your doctor, etc. Not every site is optional.

Recently announced starfox remake. The characters look absolutely terrible.

AI jack off detection trained on trillions of hours of Omegle and Chat Rulette.

Much like every culture war issue the right grabs onto: there’s no logical basis for it. It became an in-group thing to signal to others that you’re “one of the good ones”. Sane people pointed out how bad it was which only made ivermectin more entrenched as THE healthy thing like crystals, red light therapy, essential oils, basically anything not backed up by a healthcare expert.
