I think this is the one case where you should use hanged instead of hung, but I’m not a native speaker, so not 100% sure.

what if they’re into that?
also, implying there is a future this far ahead.

You could then be replaced by an android that just uses this info to interact with those people, instead of yourself. You’d never have to meet ppl again. 5 stars 😄

It’s not your fault. Just sayan.

In other languages, German for instance, its pronounced kinda like “weh” or like the letter V in English. It’s easier to say that way. Back in the day I sometimes said “triple double u” to not have to say it the actual, complicated way 😅

It’s really bad in anime, but unfortunately irrational behaviour happens in many shows. Then again we get people refusing to wear their mask during a global pnademic. So yeah, maybe some lunacy is spot on realistic idk

did they use multiple accounts to vote multiple times?

hyprland has useful features for a tiling compositor, like a special container you can toggle that goes in front of your workspace and is easy to customise and set up.
However, i think wayfire, even though much harder to set up (it needs a proper config and some helper apps or it’s just empty and you can’t even launch anything), has cooler effects and has a simple tiling plugin.
Also Gnome/mutter with the Forge extension is better than both, because you can optionally use just the mouse to drag windows at the title bar and drop them in a tiling frame of your choice. This is very helpful when your left hand is full of cheeto dust etc… Gnome also has the extensions Burn My Windows, Focus, Desktop Cube and Dash to Panel
which get you cool effects as well. It also has a Tweaks tool and the extension Just Perfection, which give you additional customization options. Gnome is very easy to set up and usable OOTB, even though not fine tuned. Also it is still backwards compatible to X11, in case you need that one app that looks crap in wayland (looking at you, Java)

yes, because text covers it and it’s blurry. almost didn’t find it.
- Comment on A List of Social Media Platforms that Still Permit Free-Speech 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, that’s the most dominant, but also sometimes nazi shit and the worst kinds of porn. Oh and I just had a guy eating raw meat and another one hit someone in the head from behind with some sort of tool. No idea what it was about, because I didn’t speak that language.
- Comment on A List of Social Media Platforms that Still Permit Free-Speech 2 weeks ago:
No, AFAIK you can just follow or block users and then get a feed of the followed.
Also you get a feed of replies to your posts.
It also has an NSFW flag. In the Yana client it’s called “Automatically open sensitive content”. It will then show a button, instead of loading things the author flagged sensitive.’
I seem to receive messages in all languages as well. Some have interesting pics of burnt cars.

I can just upload gifs like an image with Jerboa. Some other clients don’t work, because it becomes a jpg for some reason.
- Comment on How important is it that cans are clean when i put them in the recycling. 3 weeks ago:
In theory you don’t need to clean them at all, because they will hose them down at tge recycling plant and also some residue will incinerate when they melt them.
However, until it’s colkected, dirty trash will attract rats and insects and it will smell disgusting, especially in summers. I would recommend cleaning it a bit, if you can.

Yeah, there’s a lot of pists like “Version X of program Y has been released” or other usekess tech stuff, but that’s just like 20 users. Once you have blocked them, the good stuff is easier to find.
- Comment on How do I make Lemmy feel less dead? 3 weeks ago:
The All feed seems to have hundreds of posts throughout the day. I also have a lot of communities blocked, just because I’m not interested in them. There’s still coming a lot of other stuff through. Lemmy is just amazing with lots if content.

I browse the All feed sorted by New and just block/filter everything I’m not interested in. There’s always new stuff.

Some people bet Elons political influance will benefit Tesla in the future.
Personally I doubt he cares about it.
Also, if they successfully transform the US into a dictatorship, money loses meaning for those in charge.

I think you only get this if you agreed to its terms and registered. Not sure, because I never got these and can’t agree with the terms.

She just played along as a joke, of course.
- Comment on What kind of CAPTCHA is this? 5 weeks ago:
It’s on some keyboards and opens the start menu on windows. It can, of course, also be used on Linux, because it’s just a key on a keyboard. For example, in Gnome it opens the overview per default (where you see all the windows as small tiles and can use the app search).
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
No, there’s also tone of voice, wording, facial expressions, smile/laugh and gestures indicating a joke. Also, once one person joked it can be followed up by more jokes, like a session.

I think Monaco is a different country, but I’m not sure about Schengen at the time and how it works for ships. I vaguely remember the ships captain has to tell customs when they approach a harbor with foreigners and someone may come to check passports. If that was necessary at that time and they didn’t do it, but dock with you on board anyway, it was technically human trafficking, because they basically smuggled you in secretly.
