How often has that happened to you?
- Comment on At least Quark had some integrity. 2 days ago:
As a noun to refer to humans?

Obviously the exclusionary group is going to exclude the people they don’t like with their slogans though. Trans exclusionary radical feminists don’t believe trans women are women. The “adult human female” shit across from them “defining woman” or something to that effect.
- Comment on At least Quark had some integrity. 2 days ago:
I just view it as a quirk of the language. “Guys and girls” or “guys and gals” are paired words. Guy is a casual way to refer to men, so I think people use girl as a casual way to refer to women because it’s sort of the pair to guy. Lady feels too formal.
- Comment on At least Quark had some integrity. 2 days ago:
Just don’t use male or female as bound to refer to humans. That simple. If you’re talking about animals it doesn’t matter.

Can’t help but notice you’re complaining about the post but never did what the post is complaining about.

That’s a good point. I’ve got a little 4x4 raised bed. I didn’t do anything with it last year and haven’t gotten around to anything this year. I’m in the south east. I was considering just dumping a bunch of sunflower seeds in. I’ll try to do some research though and get something better.

If you can suggest native ground cover that is low maintenance and easy to start I’d consider it. I’m not going to put plugs in my yard when I can just over seed with clover. Clover is strictly better than turf grass.
- Comment on We are so cooked 3 days ago:
I forget the term for non native, non invasive plants (naturalized?) but those are good too. Native is best, of course. I see a ton of carpenter bees (native bees to my area) on my red clover (non native, non invasive).
- Comment on OpenAI's move to allow generating "Ghibly stlye" images isn't just a cute PR stunt. It is an expression of dominance and the will to reject and refuse democratic values. It is a display of power 4 days ago:
implying threads about other issues are less serious.
I never did this.

You can believe both are bad and complain about both while acknowledging they’re separate things.

No it isn’t at all. Image to image “AI” is totally different from “AI” that denies insurance claims.
- Comment on Organic Maps migrates to Forgejo due to GitHub account blocked by Microsoft. 6 days ago:
Not a Russian bot. Diem voted it because GitHub is still a poor choice to host open source on nowadays. It’s like someone saying “It’s stupid that such and such switched to renewable energy instead of fossil fuels because they believe the world is flat. The world is not flat!” It’s really missing the forest for the trees.
- Comment on Organic Maps migrates to Forgejo due to GitHub account blocked by Microsoft. 6 days ago:
Moving off of GitHub is still good, even if you believe their reasoning behind their reasons is incorrect.
- Comment on Google will move Android AOSP development behind closed doors 1 week ago:
When that code is used on devices all over the world for many very important tasks, yes.
- Comment on When uploading media to Discord, Google Photos is no longer showing in "browse media in other apps" on my Pixel 6. 1 week ago:
I see that, but Photos isn’t there anymore. Same thing with my friend from the same time. Jerboa uses a different picker. I feel confident some apps use the same picker Discord does but I haven’t been able to verify because I can’t find one lol.

I haven’t.

I don’t mind the concept, it was the layout that made small once sentence replies become like 15x longer on the page.

Quit whining about it and make a good community outside of those.
Be a good community member yourself.
Nice. Be the change you wanna see!
I see myself coming less and less to Lemmy due to how monotopic this place is. And how aggressively stupid people here can be.
What happened to “quit whining”?
- Comment on Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying. 1 week ago:
Yeah, probably just a typo.

I literally went and asked a question and someone responded “?faq” and a bit responded with the FAQs. Mind blowing. They could’ve just posted it on their GitHub page. This was for a Minecraft mod.

You need to think of why people would choose to use it for creating a forum. It’s comically easy to set up. Making a server (their terminology, blame Discord, not me) just takes a couple of clicks.

20 posts per page? lol. I think usually it was 10.
Don’t forget profile pictures and signatures making every post take up way more screen space than they should.

Why would someone not act 100% rationally 100% of the time?
- Comment on HP Inc settles printer toner lockout lawsuit with a promise to make firmware updates optional 2 weeks ago:
I’ve never interpreted settling to imply lawyers don’t get paid.
- Comment on DoorDash will let users buy now, pay later for fast food, a possible worrying sign for the economy 2 weeks ago:
I think this is for things like large parties. Like using it as a catering service.
- Comment on frenly warnin 2 weeks ago:
Gee, I wonder if Aryansoldier1488 knows if 1488 is a dog whistle for Nazis? I’d hate for Aryansoldier to get caught up in this. It was probably a random number.
- Comment on Your all-time favorite game? Let's discuss the best options! 2 weeks ago:
For me it was seeing people say that the character mechanics of Total War: Three Kingdoms were like a watered down version of CK. I hadn’t heard of it before. CK2 was the latest at the time and the UI in it is awful. Luckily CK3 came out soon.
- Comment on Your all-time favorite game? Let's discuss the best options! 2 weeks ago:
CK3 is really cool. It’s completely spoiled me on games like Civilization now. Being able to play as a person instead of some abstract concept of your empire is so fascinating to me. Things like worrying about how your child’s holdings will look once you die based on succession is fun.
