Because you look like a ratchet ass ghetto idiot using them.

Go to the instance and sign up for it, assuming they have open sign ups.
- Comment on Is connection from home server to cloudflare HTTPS or HTTP when using cloudflare tunnel? 2 months ago:
Nobody can answer this because it depends entirely on how you set it up. It can be set up either way. Whatever you point your internal endpoint at is what it is.

This is the way
- Comment on Does the rest of the English speaking world generally understand what an American means when they say "soccer", or does it help to clarify by adding "football"? 10 months ago:
And English… I’ve heard them use soccer as well on many occasions

Where did I say anyone was forcing anyone else to use Mastodon (or Twitter et al?)
I don’t use Mastodon or Twitter, never have… because it’s a platform for people with low attention spans and lacking anything interesting to say and discourages intelligent interaction in favor of quick quips and toxic behavior. Mastodon/Twitter is a cancer on the Internet, end of story.

Pages represent web pages, whereas notes represent “a short written work typically less than a single paragraph in length”. In my opinion, using Page was a mistake on Lemmy’s end. Just like Lemmy won’t support Place objects, I’m not sure if any other platform will ever support Page objects, because Pages are much bigger in scope than anything most Fediverse applications ever deal with.
Using note was the mistake. Limiting communication to short quips, like Twitter does, is a fucking travesty. The fact that people routinely and often make multiple tweets to extend what they want to say proves this point. Twitter/X was the worst thing to happen to communication in the internet age by further reducing the attention span and ability of people to concentrate on longer bodies of writing, thereby making people even dumber.
Twitter/Mastodon should not even be a thing, honestly. They are dumb methods of communication for dumb people. You can always post something shorter in a long form system, but you can’t post something longer in a short form system, without making multiple posts. It’s fucking stupid and always has been. The primary reason for the short form, originally 140 char, was because you could text it in one message. This made a bit of sense… just a tiny bit, as it opened up communication where there previously wasn’t any. But as we moved away from that paradigm of 140 char text messages, the idea of a Twitter became more and more stupid, where today, we have Twitter/Mastodon as the bastion of the idiot regime who can’t think past 280 characters.

No, it’s part of the normal partition if you set it up right. You just can’t write to the normal partition or it will overwrite your hidden partition
- Comment on Is it disrespectful to call someone instead of answering their email? 11 months ago:
My favorite is when some dumb ass company asks me to fax something. Like bitch…I haven’t had a land line in over 20 years, much less a fax machine. There is this new thing called email, perhaps you’ve heard of it?
- Comment on Is there a “proper“ way to say “6:05 AM”? 11 months ago:
Generally speaking US military time vernacular never uses the word “and” because it’s superfluous and confusing.
The idea is to condense the information into the smallest transmissible unit possible while eliminating any ambiguity.
“Oh six oh five” would be how you say it. The leading “oh” is to disambiguate a transmission dropout or interference with “sixteen.” It adds a checksum bit, if you will.

Then why are you commenting on a topic you know nothing about?
- Comment on If cannabis gets rescheduled to III, how can it ever get the state - federal differences resolved when it comes to the recreational market? 1 year ago:
What other government uses the same scheduling system for drugs and has it illegal at this time?
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
Then get up earlier? I dunno… why not adjust your schedule to accommodate what you like?
- Comment on Do the people in Reniassance festivals pccurring in Brotain also speak with faked British accents, or do they ise faked French/Iralian accents? 1 year ago:

American hospitals cannot legally refuse to treat you even if they know you can’t pay/don’t have insurance. So worst case scenario is you go and have whatever done and they bill you and you don’t pay and it’s a write off for the hospital.
Often times, if you can’t pay they will offer a reduced amount to at least get something out of you if they know they won’t get anything otherwise.
- Comment on What android phones do you recommend and why? 1 year ago:
I get you don’t like Samsung, Apple, or Google, but man… Sony? They are the original electronics company bad actors. That’s like saying “I don’t like Dahmer, but this guy Manson is cool” what the hell?
- Comment on What android phones do you recommend and why? 1 year ago:
Wow. I absolutely detest the Samsung keyboard. It’s absolutely retarded on terms of prediction and button accuracy.
Gboard, while not great, seems to be the best/most accurate. I don’t like Gboard, don’t get me wrong, but it’s way more accurate than Samsung

Just wait until you get older and you’ll start appreciating larger phones.

Why are you so obsessed with what Americans use for measurements? They aren’t forcing or even asking you to use it

- Comment on Military Time vs 24hr? 1 year ago:
“Ranger Green” the hell is that?
I’m an army veteran and I’ve never heard that term. Army Green, yes, but that’s pretty rare, too.
What color even is “Ranger Green” other than OD?

What app?

- Comment on Is there any way I can stop seeing sports posts? 1 year ago:
What if you want some scores and not others though? Then those people couldn’t block the bot. I think that’s the thought process behind that.
Not saying I agree with it, just pointing that out
- Comment on How do you call someone born in the US besides "American"? 1 year ago:
Calling an American a yank isn’t an insult to US. I know it’s meant as an insult from some cultures but it’s absolutely not insulting to an American lol
- Comment on My list of services I still miss in the fediverse 1 year ago:
What part of what I wrote do you not understand? Because it’s painfully clear you are completely mistaken about how Federation works or what it is. I’ve already explained the differences to you, but you don’t seem to be able to grasp them. So where is the failure of communication here? Which parts are you having trouble with?
