Yeah, but how long do you have to dampen your crack in order to feel the equivalent clean of two dry wipes?

I get that's the principle, but how long are you supposed to spray for? How much pressure? Is there a trick to it? In my own limited experience, it doesn't actually do much more than dampen the poo.

Okay Team Bidet, how are they actually supposed work?

Seems like you're hurting people's feelings because you're struggling with empathy, perhaps as a downstream effect of your depression, or whatever the cause of the depression is. It's obvious that you're in a bad mental space. Acknowledgement is the first step, but getting better should be the goal. For your own sake at least, but also for the people close to you that you are hurting because of you.

And yes, this might mean the friendship is over.

No one has mentioned pwsafe, which was originally created by Bruce Schneier and is still maintained.

Yeah I feel like there needs to be a huge asterisk by name declarations that, while formal/official in the barest sense, are blatantly arbitrary.

Literally no one ever called it "Gulf of America" until January. I appreciate the generally thoughtful conversation on OSM, but there's no reason that declaration should be taken seriously.

I die building a pigeon coop.

Can you give a general idea of what sort of subject matter you're interested in?

Replayed Myst. This time with environmental subtitles I was able to complete the rocket ship puzzle, so that was cool.

I agree that defederation is vastly overused, and simple account migration should be a priority.

Welcome back friend.

It's a bit of a gloss (as most microblogging posts are), but the essence of it is that words in themselves can't really hurt you unless you let them: https://x.com/tylerthecreator/status/285670822264307712

3%ers? Proud Boys? AfD? National Front?

Yeah I'm aware that it means "emotional safey" the way they're using it. But they're still being hyperbolic, because emotional safety in the context of opinions on the Internet is just not meaningful. In a relationship one can speak of emotional safety in context of emotional manipulation or violence, but on a microblogging platform? The axiom of Tyler the Creator still applies, and we're not even talking about targeted harassment.

I don't see the source either. Fair cop.

The "safety" thing is a bit hyperbolic. I wish they'd just say "the quality of the interactions is going down" or "poor moderation" or something else a little more honest.

Twitter is a shitty platform in structure, format, and moderation. I'm glad Debian's not on it. But I am disappointed in them for using hyperbolic rhetoric.

Leaving the platform would have no impact either. You are talking about something different.

Try one of the distros in the second panel next time.
