Lawful =/= non-exploitative

Reading further, walking is only counted at a 0.3 : 1 ratio of distance, for no conceivable reason. So you can run for ~12 minutes or walk for ~1 hr, it seems.

But why should my bonus be tied to something that is not at all related to my work? Should I get a pay cut if I eat a Dorito? Am I worthy enough of a pittance, CEO? Or should I be jumping through literal hoops?

First inter-user messaging was 62 years ago, first email client was 51 years ago, first spam was 45 years ago, first attachments were 31 years ago.

I don't work with it directly, but it seems we've bolted on a lot of "fixes and functionality" onto email, but the underlying protocols haven't changed dramatically.

And now nearly 56.5% of all emails were spam last year. Though I don't think that counts intranet spam I get from my bosses all the time.

The Verge has staff on Mastodon for a while now.

Is this an article for staff of The Verge? Or is it for an audience that might only relate to something if it's connected to something they've heard of?

Not having a central authority means you have no real power to stop someone

This is demonstrating the exact opposite. Community organization is valid.

It appears active users is the default status, at least as of this post.

I used to rock out to Quake II late into the night.

Only if I can charge 2x as fast!! 😉

But your statement is in no way applicable to all forms of money. Time is not directly equal to money, friend. Investigate Neo-liberalism.

Excited for you! I'm going from 1x 12tb USB drive to 4x internal 18tb drives. I'm building the NAS from scratch and keeping my other server for its current services (mostly Plex). My parts have been defective though, so it's all just sitting waiting for a replacement mobo.

I thought it might have been an error, a kerfuffle, or hoopla, but it was merely a fault! Phew

I do really enjoy the theory that the great pyramids are actually industrial reactant chambers.

Guilty of that most heinous of crimes... theft of money!

I hope I didn't miss the wave here: Does anyone else have a solution for their kids? I don't want them on un-restricted youtube, youtube kids is generally gate-kept enough that I feel comfortable they won't come across anything immediately damaging. I pay for YouTube family for now to avoid adverts.

You can show more ads with more quantity, any ad driven platform will trend that way.

If we don't save the corpos, how else will it trickle down to us?!

Thanks for fighting misconceptions, friend!

You're the real MVP.

I fucking hate Omnibus politics. I don't know how you'd do it, but 1 bill, 1 issue seems nice. And maybe banning naming these bills anything, because it's so misleading.

Similar to your bathroom tip, when cooking, I get out all the things I need and then either put ingredients away as I go or at least move them to a different part of the counter to indicate it's already in there.
