Well Hexbear also had a policy of not showing down votes to encourage users to respond if they disagree instead of just down voting and moving on.

Dudes going to need them. To maintain his size, and that guy needs more than a handcart.
- Comment on Internet Archive forced to remove 500,000 books after publishers’ court win 6 days ago:
Well they have no reason to delete them as they “own” the copy they have. They just need to take them offline until they get through the appeal or lose and have to keep them on a p2p torrent aspect instead of through their site. That sucks
- Comment on This is going to set back medical trust for years 6 days ago:
Violate a person’s rights, slap on the wrist. attempt to overthrow the country, slap on the wrist. Tell the country they shouldn’t bomb kids and try to feed them at the same time, added to a terrorist list.

2 validations in a row. It’s 9:41am here. It’s going to be a good day. I hope you have a great one as well!
- Comment on Fuck the law 1 week ago:
I’m not sure where your sister lives, but I don’t think she’s not call the police if I walked into her living room with my shoes on. They’d probably get me for trespassing or breaking and entering. /S
I know what you mean about the sneaking food into theaters. They’d just ask you to throw it away /put it in your car / or just leave. Source: first job was a theater. Now if you refused, it would likely be an officer that throws you out on a Friday/Saturday as they hired off duty officers to be around those nights for security purposes. Used to keep the K9 for the K9 units in the birthday room because we felt bad they would leave them in the running car all night in Central Florida. Surprised a few employees when they went to grab something and were startled by a happy go lucky Shepherd/Malamute.
They were very on or off duty dogs. In the car, work mode, and ready to go to war. In the birthday party room, you better be ready for pets and snuggles.

I wasn’t born till 89, so not my era either. But music comes from all eras. I think I spent half yesterday with Ain’t No Sunshine stuck in my head. That was 71? I think

I remember texting chacha if every rose has its thorn, to which they would respond that according to the 1988 song released by Poison, every rose does have its thorn.
I can’t remember so many things from that part of my life, why that stuck, no idea.
- Comment on Robert F. Kennedy Jr. sues Meta, citing chatbot’s reply as evidence of shadowban 1 month ago:
I can’t see how Meta could lose. 1 unreliable information, and 2 they can deny access to anyone they want if they are a private company last I knew.
- Comment on Is This the End of Plastic? Visa's New Technology Could Replace Physical Cards 1 month ago:
Can you explain that one to me? Anyone can take my card and use it, no one can take my phone and use it… also I would notice my phone being gone sooner. Cards dont have to transfer to other devices and have to be readded with the banks verification. A card is as easy as beep and draw an X, or not even have to “sign”.

Businesses use VPN’s/ proxies like crazy for security. I am curious to know how they bypass that
- Comment on Day one and done 1 month ago:
4 pepperoni, 1 sausage, 1 cheese is $40.94 here (subtotal) if you pick it up. That’s Little Caesars though, so… The pickier you are, the higher the cost. People who pay $25 for a pizza usually chose to buy something nice and or paid delivery and 5 other fees.

If you fly spirit, it still might be cheaper
- Comment on Ok. Which one of you has been annoying the teacher? 1 month ago:
Strange question maybe, but what percent of Lemmy is young enough to have a teacher? I’m the old man now (34). Seems like college was yesterday
- Comment on Windows 10 reaches 70% market share as Windows 11 keeps declining 1 month ago:
Like the TPM chip. It is required for Windows Hello, Bitlocker, and a few other things to enhance security. Works much like a RSA token, if the code from the chip doesn’t match the code on the hard drive it assumes tampering and will lock entry. The encrypted drive (Bitlocker) or the OS will require the Bitlocker recovery key to boot the OS (Decrypt the drive) and the password instead of the Face ID/ PIN/fingerprint you used to make access quicker. Most devices didn’t have TPM 2.0 till recently, which is the version used by Windows 11 I believe.
If you don’t encrypt said drive or attach the Microsoft accounts as they recommend anyone can grab the drive, reset the account password or just pull all your files from the drive from another OS. It’s all forced security because the views/legal responsibility keeps looking at the companies to produce the products and blaming them for not securing their users instead of the users securing themselves.

Called an Uber Friday night. Dude was much more drunk than I was. I ended up having him crash on my couch.
- Comment on If people from the US love the imperial system so much, why are their musicians using metronomes instead of footonomes? 2 months ago:
While you are counting that switch over to 10 hour days. There is no reason there has to be 60 minutes in an hour or 60 seconds. 12/24/60 are just divisible well.
- Comment on Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone 2 months ago:
I assumed it was “just” ars for apps in the Microsoft store. So they shouldn’t get viruses, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t getting software that is garbage.
- Comment on Senate passes TikTok ban bill, sending it to Biden, who has already committed to signing it 2 months ago:
Aren’t the bones the cheap part now? Think truth social for instance, why was it supposedly worth so much if anyone can spin up a Mastadon instance and make it the same restrictions over the weekend. The usernase numbers are all that mattered there I assume. Why is reddit worth more than Lemmy? Is it because the bones are expensive? Or is it that they have access to a large usernase already.
- Comment on How does the day-to-day work of not wearing shoes in the house? 2 months ago:
It is a mixture of things. Carpet gets dirty quicker and is harder to clean than hard floors. Hard floors are worse for your feet, ankles, knees, and cause more pain. It is healthier to walk on hard floors with shoes on, padding and carpet wasn’t much of a deal (closer to grass).
Many people are moving to house shoes, I personally don’t like them. But then again I don’t like walking on tile floors for long periods of time either. It encourages sitting/laying down more often.
- Comment on acceptable screws 2 months ago:
Pentalobe screws are used by Apple, was surprised not to see them listed. They also use a strange tri on some old batteries.
- Comment on FCC Denies Starlink Low-Orbit Bid for Lower Latency 3 months ago:
So you claim they are doing something about it and demand someone else find you proof for your claims. Run around with your goal posts all you want.
- Comment on FCC Denies Starlink Low-Orbit Bid for Lower Latency 3 months ago:
He didn’t send them all for free, they were also funded by the U.S. government. Sanctions say sales of such would be illegal in Russia. So yes, people in Ukraine can legally purchase and use Starlink and people in Russia legally should not be able too.
So any of his terminals being used illegally are in fact his responsibility. They are using his companies satellites which are included in the sanctions… It doesn’t seem very confusing to me
What part of that is confusing
- Comment on Checkmate 3 months ago:
It appears the pawns already turned, and 2 extra so I’d guess maybe the queen ran off with one of the bishops and became normal pawns for the other side.
Should only be 16 pawns right? 18 I count in the picture
- Comment on Do you ever worry that you're secretly a psychopath that unknowingly manipulates people around you? 3 months ago:
So how do we separate it from culture then? Or do they just overlap
- Comment on A Google AI Watched 30,000 Hours of Video Games—Now It Makes Its Own 3 months ago:
Well shit, 20 years and it looks like we may have replaced our entire workforce with robots that dont need to sleep, and can produce everything we need using low environmental impact devices. You know. Maybe the Jetsons weren’t wrong, just early.
How do we not become WALL-E though.

Misunderstanding apparently but the original comment says the same thing you guys just said.
