In my view, cold approaching women you don’t know just because you’re attracted to them is harassment.

I don't agree with this. You can approach women in public and talk to us without it being harassment. If you approach someone and they tell you to leave them alone and you don't or they're obviously uncomfortable and you persist then it's harassment.

For some context: I'm not as old as your parents but I'm older than you (I'm late 30s).

I’m married

That poor woman.

That's what parents are for.

This is really cool. I didn't know about either of them; thank you for posting.

Isn’t that a fork of Firefox that still relies on Firefox development?

Yes. And it seems like a lot of people who shill for it don't understand that. If every Firefox user switched to LibreWolf then there would be no more Firefox and then no more LibreWolf. Firefox has done some questionable things lately but all of us jumping ship to something like LibreWolf isn't the answer.

Would it continue to exist if Mozilla shutdown and Firefox was no longer maintained?

Nope.

There absolutely wasn't. Snopes did a good piece on this in 2024.

This was certainly one of the Lemmy threads of all time.

Loved Oblivion and on PC just wanted no frills gamepad support.

There's a mod for that. If you don't like the reskinned UI you can just choose "NorthernUIAway (Vanilla Style)" from the Files tab to get a version with only bugfixes and the added gamepad support.

Microsoft is perhaps the most complicit tech company in Israel’s illegal occupation, apartheid regime and ongoing genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza – which is why Microsoft is a now priority BDS target. (source)

Yes, for those of us who manage somehow to cope with our mortality. The very meaninglessness of life forces man to create his own meaning. Children, of course, begin life with an untarnished sense of wonder, a capacity to experience total joy at something as simple as the greenness of a leaf; but as they grow older, the awareness of death and decay begins to impinge on their consciousness and subtly erode their joie de vivre, their idealism—and their assumption of immortality. As a child matures, he sees death and pain everywhere about him, and begins to lose faith in faith and in the ultimate goodness of man. But if he’s reasonably strong—and lucky—he can emerge from this twilight of the soul into a rebirth of life’s élan. Both because of and in spite of his awareness of the meaninglessness of life, he can forge a fresh sense of purpose and affirmation. He may not recapture the same pure sense of wonder he was born with, but he can shape something far more enduring and sustaining. The most terrifying fact about the universe is not that it is hostile but that it is indifferent; but if we can come to terms with this indifference and accept the challenges of life within the boundaries of death—however mutable man may be able to make them—our existence as a species can have genuine meaning and fulfillment. However vast the darkness, we must supply our own light.

It also plays Wii games. 😉

The "auto giant" is Hertz in case you don't want to read the article if it wouldn't apply to you (i.e. you haven't rented from Hertz before).

lol. lmao even.

Who could have seen this coming? 🤔

It is pronounced /ˈdætə/.

I use Fedora. No real reason in particular (I do like yum/dnf a lot), I just think it's neat.

I've used Arch in the past as well.

Or you could just not use Reddit. Reddit sucks.

Out of curiosity, how many browse on desktop?

I only visit the site via desktop.

That's great news. I hope she continues to improve. ❤️🐱

Merci. ❤️
