If I’m doing something in a language I only half way know and rarely use in depth I’ll use them more. Like bash scripting I use them all the time. For Java I basically never touch them because I don’t need them.

How do I know which do? (Genuine question.)

Paid employees of Reddit (admins) almost certainly have better tools available than moderators.

My omega is gonna be cute, one way or another.

I’ve had text books that have page numbers in the corner as chapter-number. It’s not unheard of. When I was in JROTC in highschool the cadet field manual had pages like this. I’m sure others did too but I specifically remember that one more because I was there for four years. (Had to be there for riflery team.)

For admins? Surely.

I nearly joined Beehaw when I first joined but I’m really glad I didn’t in hindsight.

If instance A stops existing, instance B doesn’t have any specific knowledge of that versus it no longer federating. Existing posts and comments will stay. My instance is no longer federated with some, but I still see the communities from them.

How do you not know? Do your due diligence lol.

One of my biggest gripes about the fediverse (and honestly any online community) is people making increasingly niche places to discuss things before there is a need to split things due to size. I’d post that to something like a general hobbies group. I’d also say mods need to be less strict about what is and isn’t on-topic while there isn’t much traffic in their communities.

I don’t want to play Uno regardless of how many people are watching lol.

Well that can’t be because I call my nonbinary wife Daddy!

It’s short for Michaelael.

CVE-2025-j - Data leak due to uninitialized variable for children of non-binary parents

Children referring to non-binary parents may use uninitialized variable in speech when referring to the parent. This can expose personal information when referring to the non-binary parent. All children who are users of the English language are potentially vulnerable. Children who already have a preferred title for their parent are unaffected. To mitigate this the parent and child should discuss what preferred title the child should use.

Due to the extreme widespread usage of the English language and the difficulty with patching, there is unlikely to be a comprehensive fix for this soon.

Tangential, but my wife is nonbinary and I still call them my wife. They’re okay with it. And I don’t mean to be lewd, but in bed they like to be called Daddy instead of Mommy. My point is that it’s probably a case by case thing without a universal and some nonbinary folks don’t mind some gendered terms. It might even be context based.

I don’t want 500 people watching me play boardgames with a friend.

I can’t even enjoy normal streamers. Twitch is so boring. I only ever watch edited things streamers upload to YouTube.

Isn’t it at an all time high or damn close? Just sell. Crypto is a basically a damn scam. Not judging. It’s just so volatile. It has extreme highs followed by periods of extreme lows. Don’t force yourself to live through another crypto winter.

I really hit the jackpot by mining one back in like pre 2014 (but sadly only one lol) and sold it in 2021. It’s been frustrating seeing how high it is now, but the feeling isn’t as bad as it was seeing the price drop after the times I didn’t sell. I’m much happier having traditional assets like total market index funds.

Crypto is a house of cards that could just collapse at any time. Don’t be a bag holder. Sell while it’s in a period of high then don’t look at the price ever again. Cut your winnings and go.

Signal fills an incredibly important spot in a spectrum of privacy and usability where it’s extremely usable without sacrificing very much privacy. Sure, to the most concerned privacy enthusits it’s not the best, but it’s a hell of a lot easier to convince friends and family to use Signal than something like Matrix.

What are you on about right now? I don’t mean that sarcastically, I really am wondering what your concern is. Are you concerned that because your phone number is associated with Signal that police will know you use Signal?
