If its just regurgitating reddit, "homocidal thoughts" shows up in many comments about homicidal thoughts. Still hope its just a edit for the meme.

Wish we would stop using fonts don't think make a clear differences between I and l.

I have an asrock motherboard which doesn't like losing power (z97, so a little older than this one). Usually, I have to press the reset and CLRCBTN1 buttons on the motherboard, flip the switch on the PSU, wait 15 minutes, turn the PSU back on, try turning it on using the power button on the motorboard, maybe spam the reset/clrcbtn1 button some more and hope it works. Sometimes I can skip the PSU part, but not often. Think my model motherboard has some manufacturing defect related to the CMOS, because others have reported similar issues.

Is this part of Hades 2?

At least we get other domesticated Caniformia (the "dog-like" suborder), just no domesticated Ursidae (bear family) specifically.

I was thinking of a giant railgun with a capsule holding Cannon. Basically just a high-tech cannon.

As long as the acceleration is spread out over about 1500 feet/500m, he should be fine.

Maybe if they UK provided prescriptions to people in a timely manner, people wouldn't resort to other means of getting their medical treatment.

Used to have a credit limit that was like double my annual income. Surely they knew there was no way I could afford even the interest alone if I came anywhere close to maxing out cards...

"Bear" is a sex?

I think I had someone ask why I was necroing something because I had responded to something that had been posted earlier that or the night before. Maybe it was older than 24 hours, but regardless it was a weird experience.

David Thorne's spider 🥰

My parents always used language that didn't presume we were heterosexual. Eventually, she started using even more inclusive language specifically for me, which was kinda weird but cool. I think she's finally just realized I'm not interested in romance or sex. Idk. I don't like bringing up topics like that, and I think she wants to give me space to bring that kind of thing up when I'm ready, so we just play a guessing game?

The built-in ad block for my browser seems to work for me.

If it did, wouldn't it always be 100%?

Hopefully gen Ω can acheive 100%+ identification as LGBTQIA+.

Edit: obligatory xkcd

But if you would have also not voted because of issue Y or Z are also dealbreakers, then you'd be a multi-issue voter. If candidate A believes Y and Z, but not X, candidate B believed in X and Y, but not Z, and candidate C that believes in X and Z, but not Y, so you just didn't vote, it would be clear its 3 different issues that you care about, but for each candidate, it would be a single issue why you aren't voting for them. Would that just mean you are a single-issue voter for 3 different issues?

But if candidate A believes in Y and Z, candidate B believes in Z, and candidate C doesn't believe in any of them in a particular election, in that case X alone would mean not voting for any of them.

If you're not going to vote for someone you otherwise would because of a single issue, you're a single issue voter.

I thought it was you decided who to vote on based on a single issue. If you care about multiple issues, and any one of them is a deal breaker, then wouldn't you be a multi-issue voter?

edit: "can can" -> "care"

Because obviously all compliments are actually just insults in disguise! /s

I put /s, but like, that's often my first assumption. IME, often compliments have been mostly been intentionally a back-handed insult, are putting themselves down in the process, or they're trying to give a genuine compliment but its about something I dislike about myself and therefore feels insulting despite the intentions.

I really did always hate that Reddit felt like a massive echo chamber.

Lemmy is a collection of independent echo chambers that believe different things. You can make an account on some instance you never heard of before and get people assuming you have certain beliefs just because of your instance because apparently a lot of people stick primary to their home instance? In one instance, you have an echo chamber of "bOtH SiDeS aRe tHe sAmE" and other echo chambers that say things like "I won't vote for someone who aids in genocide".

Some instances block more instances than others (the one you are on has blocked 172 instances, for example). And some instances are blocked by a lot of instances (lemmygrad is blocked by 89 instances). Also some instances disable downvoting, if that's something you're interested in.

I don't think overpolicing is an issue in most places? Like, there's that one person who openly is pro-genocide in all of the palestine-related threads (like, they explicitly call for killing of even infants and that anything less is antisemitism) and I guess they're tolerated (just probably one of the most heavily downvoted people on lemmy). But if they're on an instance without downvotes, they wouldn't even see them.
