  • If you had to choose one place in the world to start from nothing and survive solo, where would you pick, and why?

    Jump

  • No ID also?

    Probably something like a Scandinavian country with a good social safety net. It might be tough to get citizenship, but at least I might have a chance to survive that long.

  • Make it so

  • I'm quite proud that I correctly guessed both links before opening either.

  • I feel bad for the future of both Gen Alpha and the parents who raise them.

  • Here.

    Numbers are indeed very high, but none of them reach 50%. And you're right that general unhappiness while remaining married is hard to measure, but even that "gray divorce" rate (when the kids are not as big a factor) isn't so high, which I think would be an indication.

    Also, that's only marriage. Lots of people are in stable LTRs (usually not their first, but that doesn't mean much if they are in one now.)

  • I feel like there is a similar but opposite bias to survivorship in the reporting of relationships in general: you only hear about the bad ones.

    My friends are all freaks and geeks, much like myself, but even in our group those that are in relationships at all have been in them long term and are at least seemingly happy with them. This seems like the usual case in the general population too - bad cases become gossip (or news if the people are famous), but most of the stable cases don't make a big deal about it.

  • Do you feel a recent sudden redditification of lemmy ?

    Jump

  • Sure, but I was referring to the "people" (user accounts) that literally are not people (human) because they are software instead.

  • People are people.

    A lower percentage of them are people on Reddit and unfortunately that percentage is dropping here also. (We have bots posting weird questions to the question communities for example)

  • It really likes this phrase

    Jump

  • For context, this is a real question that stumped a lot of LLMs:

    "I want to wash my car. The car wash is 100 meters away. Should I walk or drive?"

    Of course it's famous now, so they have added specific exceptions for it (or just because it's famous they've scraped the solution)

  • It makes the old one obsolete!

    Jump

  • Yup. It's a thing.

  • Locked

    Is it normal to use Airplane Mode to reset your phone's internet connection?

    Jump

  • Did you see the images with the context? That's specifically in the mobile network Access Point Names menu.

  • Frame of reference

  • The Backlash Is So Strong That People With “Pervert Glasses” Are Afraid to Use Them in Public

  • Nearby Glasses

    (Play store, also on F-Droid via the IzzyOnDroid repo)

  • Where my iT’s A fEaTuRe homeys at?

    Jump

  • I think Phillips would look fine, especially if it's painted like those screws always are. And there are still other solutions, for example square drive (the bits are rare, but would be easy enough to just sell next to the plates if it became popular)

    Jump

  • The screwdriver slips out of the side of the screw as you turn it. They can be extremely frustrating.

  • Who have you gotten an autograph of?

    Jump

  • Brendan Frasier, although I haven't actually met him in person. His mom worked at the same place as my mom, and they arranged to get me a signed Encino Man poster.

  • Where my iT’s A fEaTuRe homeys at?

    Jump

  • Do they make those in a reverse direction so once it gets a bite it can just unscrew?

    Jump

  • You found one that is objectively worse than Phillips. (Because it's just the worst, period.)

  • According to the USA Gov, Linux usage is at 5.8%

    Jump

  • In addition to Pornhub and Steam, the USA government tracks platform usage as well.

    Those are three important things for it to track.

  • git-llmfs, a git filter that will reduce your repo code size through the power of LLMs!

    Jump

  • That's the joke.
