Most probably use it for work.

If you’re just lurking, RDX is a great alternative. An actual thick client and not a web app. I don’t know how the dev gets it to work but it’s great for when I just want to check my city’s sub.

We aren’t justifying getting shafted by corporations. What I and the other person are saying is that at some point as your connections and cables multiply, you need to consolidate and streamline your setup for it to be more practical and actually mobile. I’m all for having all the basic necessity ports on my laptop, but when your desk ends up as a mess of cables and pulling out and putting back your laptop becomes bothersome with having to attach/re-attach everything every time, having a dock makes it much simpler. Subjecting yourself to setting up all those cables on both ends instead of just one end is the opposite of having a mobile workstation for quick setup and cleanup.

With that many connections, using a dock or a monitor with thunderbolt seems more practical than having a ton of stuff plugged into your laptop.

Me when I have a 30 min meeting in the middle of the day where I am the organizer and need to lead the discussion.

Reviewing for a GIAC certification exam next week. It’s a beta exam so my score will help dictate the passing score when it officially comes out next year.

When they realized they DO actually have something to hide, they moved the goalposts to now say nothing is private online anyway.

So the cars will become cheaper right? Right?

The Mammoth for Mastodon app has curated smart lists and a For You feed. It can also suggest people to follow based on your interests. I think that’s an easier way to get new users started vs importing a csv file which the average internet user will be too lazy to do.

It’s tradition in my country but not mandatory. The archaic government system is also easier to navigate through if a married couple have same the last name. Because it’s so common for a wife to take her husband’s last name, it immediately raises eyebrows when people claim to be married but have different surnames. In our case, my wife took my last name because she just likes it better than hers. It’s neutral and easier to pronounce.

It’s all fiction. My assumption is those posts are to get a ton of karma as quickly as possible, then the accounts are sold for whatever purpose.

That’s not what people are afraid of. It’s his antivaxx stance and other extreme stuff that people are against. If only he pushed for just the sane stuff like banning/regulating additives, dyes, HFCS, etc.

You can now give someone the finger and tell them that’s the only time you have for them

Tubi is way better anyway.

Because most people switching don’t know (or care) about the fediverse and decentralization. They are regular internet users who just want to get away from the cesspool that is twitter, so they go where other people are going.

Any distro on a bootable usb drive. Instant OS, no installation needed, just plug it in.

The post about Stephen King moving to Threads says otherwise. But to be fair, it’s Threads and not Bluesky, which people here hate more.

Not really. I mean, sure it’s the same concept, but email has been getting semi-centralized between the big players now, with gmail and maybe icloud getting the largest chunk of users. That would be similar to letting users choose between .world or .ml to sign up with, which is against the fediverse principle to spread the load as wide as possible.

When you present the lowest common denominator internet user with hundreds of instances to choose from and requiring them to think further than clicking through a sign-up page, you lose user interest pretty quickly.

Use induction or electric stoves. They don’t have a visible fire so that might help with your worry of starting one. But remember it can still happen of course, it just helps that you’re not seeing an actual fire while cooking. Like others said, you can also use other electric cookware like an airfryer, griddle, etc. Just make it a habit to be always present and not forget that you’re cooking something and you’ll avoid most burning/fire accidents.
