  • Almost definitely; I don't know if there's a degree that's necessary to qualify as I can still look at it without breaking eye contact (though I hate it). But I have a deep desire to rip that shit up the entire time; deeply repulsive, whatever the reason. Honeycombs don't bother me, though; I dunno.

  • Haha; I think the wool's too fuzzy and not rigid enough to bother me. I've been trying to get more into the fiber arts in the last few years, too, so definitely not a problem that I've noticed.

  • Definitely the latter, for me; something about segmented holes just grosses the absolute Hell out of me.

  • Can you tell what language it is? Some allow you to have dangling commas (I, personally, hate it but it could be the end of the list, nevertheless).

  • “It’s a Dog Eat Dog World and I’m Wearing Milkbone Underwear”

  • I had been thinking that very thing.

    That said (and I know I'm an outlier because I've been this way since childhood but) I don't understand these seeming insistences on avoiding the culture signifiers of periods past.

    I always loved being familiar with cultural touchstones of the past (I've been working on putting All in the Family on our home media center, recently), especially because it creates a deeper understanding and because as you see how they influenced the ones you grew up with.

    Culture is yet another way humans tell stories and how we relate with each other and I truly love that.

  • Fox News Host Bizarrely Declares AOC Wants to Sleep With Stephen Miller

    Jump

  • I mean, I do think it makes a certain level of sense how Watters drew that conclusion from what AOC's been doing, recently.

    Everyone at Fox News is a child and treating your crush like you hate them is a very common flirtation technique on the elementary playground.

  • Not sure if it's where he got his start but you're definitely correct that's a thing he used to do.

  • Let's not throw the intellectually disabled under the bus, like that; many of the people with Down's I've met are, hand over fist, better people than MTG has ever managed to be.

  • What turn of phrase do you hate?

  • Like people who complain about "literally" being used hyperbolically, I'm always a tad concerned that someone wasn't able to discern this to the point of making that inability known publicly.

    Gonna bookmark this; it's a great explanation.

  • How would you pin down something like this? If it happened to me, I expect I just wouldn't understand what's going on.

  • I HAVE to say this is a joke.

    Why? I doubt your mom uses Lemmy.

  • Cut the sides off when the pit is horizontal; that'll let you get the largest cuts without cutting into the pit. You can then bite into the flesh of the pieces you cut off with minimal mess and either bite into the flesh along the pit or cut the flesh off the pit.

    Your hands will probably still get a bit messy but your face will largely be spared.

  • Google's shocking developer decree struggles to justify the urgent threat to F-Droid

    Jump

  • Sure; but we won't close that gap immediately. Intermediate progress can be helpful for further progress.

  • Google will block sideloading of unverified Android apps starting next year

  • I dunno if sufficiently so but their new model is less bulky: https://furilabs.com/shop/flx1s/

    Loses the removable battery and headphone jack (sadly), though; but you do gain hardware switches and an extra 2GiB of RAM.

  • There's generally been positive reviews for FuriLab's FLX1 model:

    Their new one, the FLX1s has 2GiB more RAM (for 8GiB, in total). I've heard battery gets 2 days without charge even with Android emulation.

  • 'Read' and its past tense are spelled the same. How should they be spelled?

  • Not really related to the bulk of your comment but I'm curious (if you don't mind sharing) what features you like from BlueSky, in comparison to Mastodon?
