  • You have to create an add-on collection first and then it'll be available. (tutorial here)

  • It's mostly cousins and mostly in villages. It was somewhat common (as in, it wouldn't be seen as completely out of left field) to marry your cousin some decades ago. I know a few seniors who either married their cousin or know someone who did. However it's definitely an older generation thing, I've never heard of someone younger than 40 doing it, and I doubt it's that common these days.

  • Still fits in a 1 TB sd card... Barely!

  • Digimon cyber sleuth. I guess it really depends in what position I would be in in the world but overall it seems like a jackpot. I get to capture and battle with digimons and there's an actual virtual reality world to travel to. Sweet.

  • A stern talking to and yelling are different I feel like. This study is referring to basically insulting and scaring the child.

  • Glad to see it finally being introduced in my country! Sadly they won't accept trade ins for the 7, which means I'll be passing on this until the 7 is EoL.

  • In my experience this only lasts for the initial arc at best and then the protagonist becomes fully integrated in the world and is no different than someone already living there, with all subsequent arcs receiving no benefit from having someone from another world. The vast majority of isekai make no effort to integrate the protagonist's experience from another world into the plot and instead rush to sweep it under the rug.

    There are of course exceptions to the rule but the vast majority of isekai I come across is as I described above.

  • I hate Netflix as much as the next guy but let's not shield our eyes from reality. Their move was actually very successful. A small percentage of people unsubscribed, but that number was dwindled by the number of new subscribers. Netflix basically proved that people for the most part don't care and will subscribe just to keep watching. Of course Disney and others will follow suit after seeing that.

  • Why don't the banks do this?

    Both of my banks allow unlimited virtual card creation. I think it just depends on where you live.

  • sign rule :3

  • Oh my gah!

  • That explanation actually makes so much sense. I've always wondered why shutters aren't a thing in the US.

    In Europe (at least southern Europe), because every house has shutters, they're just not seen as something you personally own or that you find ugly/needs replacing. When you move houses you're just moving to another house with shutters so it's not even a factor you think about.

  • If you have catch all enabled for your custom domain there's no overhead.

    Signing up for reddit? Just put reddit@example.com and that address will be automatically created and start receiving reddit's emails. Don't have to fiddle with anything.

  • Regulations that require you to expose your personal data for no benefit are all those things and more.

    Educating children about sex so they can consume porn in a healthy manner (because spoiler alert: these laws do nothing to stop them watching it) is 100 times more productive and positive than invading the privacy of law abiding adults. But that would actually require time and money which none of these law makers want.

    It's never about protecting children or making the world a better place. It's about moral posturing and pretending you're doing something so you can get votes.

  • In theory they can do something about it but because in America there's only 2 parties in power, with one parry's identity being "opposing the other party no matter what" rather than serving the people of the country, they'll never reach the consensus necessary to actually remove the judge.

    In most countries there's multiple parties in power so negotiation is typically mandatory and a consensus for action can often be found. In the US that's virtually impossible because the 2 parties hate each other and there's no other alternative.

  • WearOS is just a lot more taxing on the battery than what Garmin has because it does a lot more. The upside is that you get an entire ecosystem of 3rd party apps/services you can install.

    Apple's own apple watch doesn't last much longer unless you basically disable everything.

    Smart watches that work like a phone are inherently always going to have worse battery than smart watches that are only programmed to do a very narrow set of things.

  • Reddit kept the people who didn't care about third party apps

    Which is important to note is like 90%+ of users, most of whom never participate and just consume content.

    I felt many of the protesters had no clue how unpopular (by numbers) 3rd party clients were. The reason they seemed so prevalent in discussions is because reddit users who use 3rd party clients are power users who actually participate versus everyone else who just browses. These protests showed the ugly reality that they were always a small vocal minority.

    I left reddit and edited all my comments/posts on principle, but I was never under the illusion that I was part of the majority or that the protests would lead to something.

    Of course I hope Lemmy got some nice visibility and that something positive comes out of it, but I'm not clinging onto a pipe dream.

  • I just learned about this. Does this work well for men? The material I see online is all focused on women.

    I struggle a lot with body hair and mostly rely on hair removal creams because everything else has too many annoying drawbacks. Would he nice to have a more long-lasting option that doesn't hurt my skin (and until I save enough to get laser removal)

  • Nope, "you" can be 2nd person plural on its own. You can refer to a group of people as just "you"

    For example, imagine a security guard saying to a group of shoppers "everybody listen up, you need to leave the store". You might use "you all" but it's not grammatically necessary, it just adds specificity.
