  • It was disabled for me.

    Stranger still, the other screenshot you posted did have the "Allow contacts to add me" checkbox checked, but it only appears when you tap "Add Friends." When you leave that screen and return, the checkbox is always checked. It makes me think it's a setting solely applicable to that screen, like just for the "Find Friends" button, and not to your profile as a whole. IDK if that even makes sense.

  • the doctrine in contract law that ambiguity is always found to be detrimental to the drafter of the contract.

    Anywhere to read more about this?

  • Thanks for adding an update to your post OP. Good to know cool heads prevailed!

  • I thought that bit was hysterical.

    "Tell me you've never been employed before without telling me."

    "I prefer discord for business communication."

  • @tigerjerusalem Not for nothing, but kbin has both a thread-side and microblogging-side to it. Ernest even introduced an aggregate view very recently where you can see both on the same page, formatted to their respective types of posts. You could use any view you like best. I think that flexibility is a great feature.

  • The developer is closely linked to Swedish publisher Paradox Interactive, which tests, markets, sells, distributes, and owns the intellectual property of all games by Colossal Order.

    You do realize it was very likely not CO's decision to release the game in this state, right? Paradox owns the IP, they're publishing the game, they decide when it gets to ship, or else they won't pay CO. Game companies have absolutely died by going against the publisher and going bankrupt from withheld funding, e.g. Free Radical Design and Lucasarts.

    Like have you ever worked as a software engineer before? Clients always set the deadline, and they're almost always unrealistically short time-frames. CD Projekt Red self-published, they had no excuse to release Cyberpunk the way they did. But we're not talking about a developer in charge of their own destiny here. We're talking about a developer with a client: Paradox. You've got the actual antagonist staring you in the face, but you're going to blame the developers?

  • Aren't the most commonly accepted sorting algorithms O(nlog(n))? Quicksort? Mergesort? Those are considered bad?

  • Your waking life for minimum wage and your dreams for free.

  • as if he’s definitely automatically wealthy to a level that he doesn’t have to worry about being bullied.

    "One of the indulgences of great wealth is freedom from other peoples' opinions." Trump and Musk both seem to have missed this memo. They're so self-absorbed and insulated that they can't imagine there are people out there that they can't buy, can't bribe, and can't silence. Their lives must be so empty they can only hear the echoes of their critics... or maybe that's just my imagination.

  • is it still impossible to withdraw staked coins?

    Wait back up.

    still

    Hahahahaha holy shit.

  • Like, he kept the ship from listing more, and he’s bailing his hardest, but, the ship ain’t righting and it’s still leaking.

    Half of the passengers are actively shooting holes into the ship. I don't think there's a human alive that could right it. There is no Ideal Candidate who can fix all these problems in one term - probably not even in two. So I don't get why we're holding Biden to this impossible standard where conservatives create problems faster than anyone can solve them, but then we hold Biden solely responsible for the both the cleanup and the progress we should have made in the meantime, but then we also won't afford him the benefit of "helping." In your words, "he was far from alone in that," well why should he be?

  • To be fair to OP, I've seen "Dark Brandon" more as a meme to vex conservatives, used when Biden accomplishes a one of his policies, and particularly when fighting to get student loans forgiven.

  • Am I drunk or does the thumbnail look like China owns Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan? WTF?

  • It was a major component in playing Death Stranding optimally.

  • Thanks. I tried to post the original link but it just says "No posts." Weird.

  • Stuart Seldowitz served as acting director for South Asia at the National Security Council under former President Barack Obama and worked in various roles in the U.S. government across decades under multiple presidents, according to government webpages and a biography for a government relations firm he worked with.
