Because liberal mystification with fancy-sounding concepts made to make you feel dumb so you don’t realize it’s just creative surplus labor value expropriation

False; it says “100% Safe & Secured” right there on that logo. How could that possisbly be a scam?

“Effective” “altruism” be like

I’ve heard of a black person being turned away at a bar by bouncers in Austria (which has similar culture to Bavaria), which is anecdotal. Also anecdotally, when I was there myself in the less-urban parts of Bavaria, I didn’t see any non-white people.

It didn’t remind me much of rural USA or what you described it as (my recollection of that is a bit fainter and more dated than urban USA).

Edit: the person told me the bouncer said “we don’t serve your kind here.”

Excellent instance name

Yeah but shipping finna be 3-5 business months

Interesting, thanks!

What sorts of exercises help (or is it just any exercise)? Did you also go to a physical therapist?

Did the neurologist have any hypotheses about how protrusion and extrusion occurred? Was it slowly over time? I suppose that’s somewhat academic.

I wonder what it would look like without these measures?

Back in My Day™, we had minimal MDM on the school computers.

Yes, the kids that wanted to fuck around (look at porn, download music, play games) fucked around, but they would have the old-fashioned way, anyway. The most common thing was just changing the desktop photo to a Lamborghini, or something. Anyway, we turned out…. Well… not necessarily ok, but I don’t fault the computers for lack thereof where applicable.

Admittedly, these weren’t personal laptops but just ones in the library or computer labs, but still.

Damn. What can be done to fix it? (tbh, have the same thing as of late and procrastinating getting more serious treatment than physical therapy)

give space to your own creativity

This is key. One will inevitably make many different design and UX decisions vs whatever preexisting projects are out there, making one’s project more suited to at least a few contexts than anything preexisting.

In addition to being plain demotivating, looking at other stuff too early basically encourages one to just make the same decisions as others, becoming much more like just a second implementation of what already exists.

Hmm true. It does sometimes stop tracking, which is extremely annoying.

Another annoyance (that’s probably not unique to it) is that I’m doing calorie counting, and I’ve found I have to halve the calories it reports to get an accurate number.

FWIW I have an Inspire 3 and it’s reasonable. It has a chime to find it, Bluetooth seems solid enough, and it’s definitely waterproof as I run it under the sink to wash it every day. Cheap, too, so I don’t really care if it breaks. Small, so not a big, clunky fashion statement or something.

emacs has a steeper learning curve? You can M-x <type stuff> tab to figure out how to do stuff, which is easier than Vim for learning IMO

I feel like a good portion of people hate many languages, tbh. This is at least partially because they’re often forced to use them based on company mandates, rather than their own volition.

Wow, they found something even more confusing than 1-indexing (conditional 1-indexing)

Oh snap

Or at least give the the additional option to see a feed of all instances and communities across Lemmy / the fediverse I have not personally blocked or filtered out.

I believe that option is possible if you set up your own instance, which, yeah, is admittedly non-trivial resource-wise (time/money/effort). Maybe slightly less non-trivial would be finding an instance that is itself fully permissive.

Lmao that definitely sounds like a completely binding agreement and definitely not equivalent to one that companies routinely walk back

“Don’t be evil” “Netflix: love is sharing your password” etc.

Well, y’all are in luck because they’re switching to USB C for iPhone 15
