Twitter is not the only platform with a bot problem. Nuking Third-party apps makes Reddits user count entirely self-reported and unverifiable.

This is some hobbit-level shit.
If a lack of privacy is like being nude in public, Apple is an expensive bouncer at an expensive club where you take your clothes off for free in front of people who pay apple a cover charge, because Apple promised them you have the biggest tits.
It's kinda flattering, but is it really privacy?
"Works like email. Like how nobody owns email."
Honey this is an Applebee's, shit wherever you want.
Tom represents the incomplete knowledge of mankind and our pre-modern inability to firmly grasp the natural world we live in (and to some extent our continued struggle).
The fantasy world of Middle-Earth is in most ways supernatural to our own. So how much more incomplete would our understanding and knowledge of it been?
Tolkien was a professor of language and mythology and steeped in the ancient epics of the Anglo-saxons and Norse cultures. His career was putting together what these people knew and how they saw the world, but also what they couldn't understand and how they explained their ignorance.
Others here are hinting at what Tom is, but not why he is. He's a manifestation of ignorance. That's why pinning him down is so tricky. It's like pointing at a shadow with a flashlight.
"I'm constantly haunting myself" is one description of ADHD
I have a headlamp that's basically just a metal case wrapped around an 18650 cell and it is quite insane.
Anywhere skin-on-skin contact occurs (butt, balls, armpits), I use a small amount of benzoyl peroxide facewash. It kills the bacteria responsible for BO and for 24-48 hours body odor is impossible.
You apply it, wait 5 minutes and rinse well. If you don't rinse well you can bleach your towel or clothes.
As far as body soap goes, I use a a fragrance free body wash with salicylic acid. Heavy mechanical exfoliation is not necessary when using a chemical exfoliant. Also, loofas are just a bunch of plastic waste.
After the shower, I use a lightweight gel moisturizer with cerimides. I use a thicker moisturizer on my hands and weenis.
That's just the body. I--of course--have a completely seperate routine for my face.
Be the only user that can run code as root.
Microsoft and their "trusted partners" do not deserve closer access to my hardware than I have.
We have a fee-free bank-to-bank transfer system that is based on pre-digital technology that takes 2-3 business days. We often call it "direct deposit" or automated clearing house (ACH). It's often used for payroll and paying bills.
Now, we could probably make this payment system instantaneous relatively effortlessly (and thus useful for regular in-store purchases), but the banks lobby against this so they can continue to charge us fees and interest to over-use credit cards. (Interestingly enough, credit and debit cards all use direct deposit on the backend to actual transfer funds between parties).
This is all fine and dandy for most people because they simply can't imagine doing things a more consumer-friendly way.
Rural meaning wilderness, yes.
Rural meaning farming communities, no.
I currently live in a small city surrounded by wilderness. Transit could be better, but there's tons of culture I can walk to and I can escape to solitude in 15 minutes and it's divine.
Imagine you get your hands covered in sticky filth. Do you wash them at a sink or just wipe them off with some paper and call it good?
Why do any different for your ass?
Depending on the type of work you are doing, you could be losing fat while gaining both muscle and bone density.
If you were mostly untrained/inactive before starting this job, you've most certainly grown/densified a lot of bone.
"Quite frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn."
It's been 13 years and the only applications found have been in fraud.
Over and over, blockchain is a solution to a question nobody asked.
You might as well say you're a biplane enthusiast or something.
Allies won because the entire US industrial capacity was an ocean away from the front.
I mean, he owns a car company.
Have you ever watched Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
Wear whatever you want.
People mostly used to wear cloaks to keep the elements off of them.
Lots of mud and dirt from horseback riding back then--also rain.
We're indoors a lot more now. Most of us don't work outside and our transportation, mainly automobiles, are protected from the elements.
As the function became irrelevant, so did the clothing choice.
Today, you could drown an entire cruiseship of Romani and most of Europe would cheer.
I used the Mcdonalds app a few times and the drivethru was always faster, lmao.
They require location services and don't start cooking until you're inside their geofence, but IME they seem to still prioritize drivethru customers.
Anything Putin claims of the West, is a simple admission of guilt.
I can't imagine how anyone who doesn't live in his staterun media bubble could take his words at face value.
Linus Torvolds and the folks at kernel.org work to continually improve the kernel and ready it for each release cycle.
Ubuntu and other distro maintainers take that work and make sure that they are shipping to you a compiled kernel(s) that dependably works with all other software on their distribution.
Sounds like a good idea for a wikipedia page. Put Elon's picture on it.
The Mozilla Corporation is a tax entity for the Mozilla Foundation. Your bullshit detector is miscalibrated.

Quit what? Lmao.
I have no idea what "camping " means to you, but I can tow a pop up camper with my Impreza.
19.99€ I spent on Minecraft in 2011.
About 8000 hours of entertainment.
An instance is like your email provider.
You can (mostly) email anyone at any email address on any provider, but you still need a username and password to log in to your webmail.
With lemmy, you can read and comment on any community, and respond to any user.
e.g. You are from lemmy.world, this community is hosted on lemmy.world, but I'm from lemmy.one
Have you been to digg lately? It still exists.
Each link on the frontpage gets maybe 2-3 comments. 😂
I didn't learn until I was in college about all the other cultures, and I should have learned that in the first grade. A first grader should understand that his or her culture isn't a rational invention; that there are thousands of other cultures and they all work pretty well; that all cultures function on faith rather than truth; that there are lots of alternatives to our own society. Cultural relativity is defensible and attractive. It's also a source of hope. It means we don't have to continue this way if we don't like it.

Linux compatibility or I send it back!
Same rodeo, new clowns.
It started as an incentive for positive interaction.
It turned into something to be gamed by doing the worst sort of intraction (reposting).
And Windows won't install on my Raspberry Pi.
I guess it's a shit OS?
Zowie (BenQ) gaming mice all have hardware toggles for report rate and dpi on the bottom of the mice, if that suits you.
You mean I can get all this stuff for free and all you can do to stop me is try to scare high schoolers?

Here's one for you: "an apron" used to be "a napron".
Linguists call this sort of change Rebracketing
