Well, the real YSK is that memory and expansion cards have distinctive positions they should take within each slot, with a detente that holds them in place. Your system will only work reliably if the devices are fully seated.

When you first assemble the system, plug and unplug each item several times so you get the feel of it. There will always be a distinct detente when the device is fully seated. It’s a lot easier to do this exercise with everything out on the bench, rather than mounted in the case when it will be a stone cold bee-atch to reach in and reseat the parts.

I wish people would stop using words like “symbolic”. This isn’t a symbol. Calling it one threatens to dilute the message.

asking if they subscribe to other myth based beliefs, religions, etc

What you actually said:

Out of interest are you religious or subject to some other form of mythical belief system? I ask because clearly you lack motivation for the truth, preferring hearsay and urban legend that I must assume supports a wider world view. by @Hackerman_uwu

My thought: this kind of behaviour is one of things that made Reddit fucking awful and I’d hate to see it flourish here in the fediverse.

So, it’s basically 4chans all the way down.

Nominally, you’d need to go through some request process to request federation with other large instances. Then they’d vet your configuration before adding you.

The famous example you’re thinking of is Jimmy Snyder, aka Jimmy the Greek, a sports commentator and sports betting expert who used to work for CBS sports. He was interviewed as part of a series about civil rights in the US, and the interviewer was sort of expecting him to say something pleasant about black folks’ success in athletics opening doors for education and leadership, etc.

Instead he made some pretty astonishing claims that were intensely racist.

Wait… they’re just giving it away?

I sign up for Patreons, watch/pay for them for awhile, and cancel several times a year.

In all cases so far, membership benefits have persisted until the end of the billing period.

Maybe the updated TOS language was to cover a future where that doesn’t happen, or it was written by somebody who doesn’t understand how the service actually works.

With respect, you need to get out of the same living arrangement.

She needs to learn self-reliance, and sort out her mental health. You’re calling it “lack of self-care”, but that’s sugar-coating laziness. I’d argue that, mental health reasons or not, she’s leaving dishes out and failing to clean because she knows you are there to pick up the slack. She has a job, she needs to get her own place.

If she wants to be a romantic partner without you taking care of her every need, then maybe you have a future. I suspect, however, that once she can no longer use you, the romance will end too.

California, actually. Although that’s probably worse.

I would proudly stink of back-bacon and maple syrup, if given the opportunity.

What would “discrimination” look like in a reddit-like link sharing service?

I’m not even sure what that word would imply in a discussion forum. It usually applies to things like wages, job opportnities, access, etc.

Those are 1E rulebooks, but they’re not from 1979. The orange spine books were mid 80s.

The earlier printings had very different colors and art.

EDIT: I found this detailed list of printings that indicates the orange spine PHB came out in 1983.

Something something Stallman was right (about this specific thing, anyway).

You’ve got Pneumail™!

beehaw.org – a lemmy instance specifically geared toward quality discussion and keeping everybody nice to each other – has basically been told by Lemmy devs that the moderation tools they want and need just aren’t in the roadmap, and they’ll need to fork and develop their own version.

That’s an incredibly disheartening attitude.

I think the big challenge right now is sustaining growth. I don’t think many reddit refugees are paying for their fediverse services.

I support dessalines on Patreon, but I don’t really know what else I should be doing. I think that folks who want to run these services need to figure out how to charge money for it, or they won’t be able to buy infrastructure or network bandwidth.
