  Oh, good, ty. I just made an account last night and will check it out to see if it fits my needs, but this was nagging in the back of my head as others have just decided to bend the knee regardless of jurisdiction.

  As an EU co, how will they navigate age verification

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Hmm, guess I’m gonna have to spin up a chat service if this “teen” setting is too restrictive. The only guarantee I have is that anything given for age verification is going to be hacked with 0 compensation, I will not submit either my face or my ID. My account is 9 yrs this year, will they consider an almost 10 yr old account to be that of an adult?

  Is there another good chat app like this? With similar features (only really need voice/text maybe pictures. Channels that won’t vanish if everyone logs off)? Haven’t been on IRC since 2k2, has it advanced since then? Back in the IRC days we used Team Speak (forget if it was TS or TS2 but on linux you had 0 restrictions on number of users).

  Wow, that was harder to write than I thought it would be

  Just like falling off a roof, the fall is fine cause it doesn’t hurt, it’s the sudden stop at the end. This would shorten the life of the device, newer models slowed down saving the hardware undue stress. It was fun to hear the fast rewind then the slowdown, I can still hear it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Interesting⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, they were big for a while, save your vcr the sudden stop at the end of rewinding, newer vcrs made these not necessary as they would slow down before the beginning of the tape.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t remember the math, there was a button to charge apple users more so we got what we were supposed to

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, I remember cause my Patreon account asked me what I wanted to do about apple trying to steal my money

  p.s. I never push Patreon so have no subs lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Last time this came up Patreon simply allowed the creators to charge the commission directly on top of the price for non apple users, or eat the 30% loss. So everyone not using iOS would pay, say, $5/month, iOS users would pay $5+30%. Hope they retain that option.

  They KNOW why “YOU” use incognito lol “whet”

  Royal you, not YOU you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thanks, Google. Very cool.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  lol, I keep trying to explain this. Incognito only removes your local browsing so your mate doesn’t see what you were planning to get them, or the porn you prefer to watch. It does not hide from websites or ISPs etc. Not even sure how well it does that.

  Neat little typo there though “whet”, is THAT what you were up to? lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨God did not intend for us to fold fitted sheets, and if you can it's witchcraft.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Been folding double and queen fitted sheets for a few decades, it is not really that hard.

  • Pick a side (long or short)
  • put the corners into each other, by folding in half (I like to put the “body” side of the sheets inside)
  • put the 2 corners together (here you can put the sheet down to make the sides “nice” so they are square)
  • fold in half until you can’t I usually get 3 folds (should be about as big as a towel folded in half 3 times on the shelf but taller)

  Takes a few moments once you are proficient. All my sheets have had elastic on all sides
