It does make sense from a payment processing standpoint. It doesn’t make sense to spend more money on creating the transaction than is actually being sent.

Damn, someone should go back and tell my teen self that bad words aren’t allowed.

I am a fucking disgrace.

As someone who lives in Texas and watches the biggest trucks be driven by the worst drivers on the road, I agree with the extra license bit. I also believe they should only be allowed to park in specifically designated spots, considering how often they don’t fit in a parking spot and block parts of parking lots.

I think that’s an interesting way to look at it. I find it easier to do the mental gymnastics, as you call it.

Real talk, is there some benefit to an analog clock that would prevent them from all being replaced by digital ones? Being able to know exactly the time in a moment’s glance seems better to me.

They’re certainly not better looking than a digital one, considering most of the ones used in schools are just the cheapest and most basic version they can get.

Power requirements maybe? Longevity?

Anticheat will have to just come from other methods that people will also hate.

Imagine, for example, if they required a form of government issued ID and the account was tied to you specifically. Despite privacy nightmare that it is (plus other issues, especially around globally accessed games), bans would have significantly larger impact if they’re tied to a real-world identity.

Dude what the fuck are you on about. Plenty of products have safety measures in place because we have federal systems to regulate them.

You can’t just cherry pick one example and then say America bad. What a fucking .ml tier take.

I think flossing twice is too much, unless you consume a lot of sugary drinks I guess. I typically do it once before bed and find my teeth feel fine throughout the day

Edit: not a dentist just lazy

For me, the game was very boring and lacked any real challenge. I found myself forcing myself to beat it around halfway through, which did not add to the fun.

Windows 11 seems to be fine, despite everyone whining constantly.

The ads everyone cries about? Can be disabled with a single option.

Slowness? Haven’t experienced it.

11 didn’t introduce anything, for me, that I couldn’t already do. Some of the desktop management features aren’t that bad and the UI is fine I guess. If you don’t like it, turns out it’s pretty easy to replace with a different shell.

Privacy concerns are pretty legitimate, but with about as much effort as getting a Linux distro set up and working you can lock that stuff down.

I feel like you’d have a better conspiracy statement if you at least spelled paid correctly.

You just end up paying a premium for your mobile plan at that point. There are much cheaper plans than the ATT one, and for some, you’ll end up paying way less if they buy the phone outright and subscribing to those.

My brain also takes information and creates derivative works from it.

Shit, am I also a data thief?

You could just keep the door closed

I, for one, would be whole lot poorer and a whole lot hungrier.

Idk where you get your food from, but mine comes from a store up the road a bit and is mostly delivered using vehicles that use gasoline to deliver it there.

I got banned from a blahaj instance for likening them to ml and hexbear.

I think I’ve finally reached old, everyone.

This meme has never been funny to me.

Lactose intolerance is more common than lactose tolerance globally. In the unites states, something like 1 in 3 people are lactose intolerant.

It’s largely genetic. Lactose tolerance can be traced to nomadic tribes that kept milk producing animals as a food source, adapting to tolerate lactose in their diet over time.

Hey man, mailing it to the corporate HQ just means that some hourly mailman and an hourly employee at the HQ now have to deal with it.

It’s not like some exec will ever even know about that happening.

If I know anything about lemmy users, it’s that they’re goddamn idiots and can never tell if something is a joke.
