I would use "what's known as", e.g. "Western countries belong to what's known as the Paris club"

Because they have unfathomably ridiculous amounts of money that they spend on lobbying (read: bribery) so that they stay not responsible.

I don't even bother unsubscribing anymore, I just mark it as spam and it stops appearing in my inbox

Hanlon's razor. I myself had no idea that 88 had any nazi-related meaning before I read this article and thought nothing of the title when I first heard it. It seems perfectly reasonable that the dev could have done the same, especially since they were willing to almost immediately change the name and remove all existing promotional material once they found out.

Unfortunately, until and unless peertube can pay creators (so basically never), it will only ever see use by foss enthusiasts, and even then only hobbyists will use it as their primary platform. For someone making a career out of it, youtube is pretty much the only real option at the moment.

That's often also used in the other way though.

she could trust him more than any of her "friends"

"Devious licks", aka literally just straight up stealing shit and posting it on tiktok

It’s so beautifully human that decades of scientific innovation paved the way for this technology, only for us to use it to look at boobs.

I do. Back on reddit, the rate of new content was enough that hot was effectively new with a quality filter. Around the end of June, when reddit pulled the api shit and people were just starting to jump ship, lemmy was a lot smaller and had less content. So if you sorted by active or hot, you would always end up seeing the same 2-year-old posts at the top every time. I set my default sort to new so that I would actually see different posts.

AD - After Christ (but in Latin)

eh... not quite

it actually stands for "Anno Domini", which is latin, but means "in the year of the lord"

Who even has cable or satellite anymore?

try connecting your phone to the port and see if you can transfer files

I don't see why not. 5 digits isn't too bad, and the issue wouldn't come up again for another 90,000 years after that. Besides, we'll probably extinct ourselves through climate change, nuclear war, and/or AI long before then anyways.

use lemmy and mastodon

if vanilla wine doesn't work, you might want to try adding it to steam as a non-steam game and running it with proton. it's no guarantee, but i've found that proton sometimes works better for some programs that don't work properly with wine.

same in firefox

you say this as if it's a good thing

idk, maybe C# just doesn't have great syntax for the way you're doing it or something, but I think the simplest solution is the most readable in this case:

for (int i = 1; i < JUST_THE_WORST_NUMBER; i += 2) {
    Console.WriteLine(i);
}
