Obligatory butt-in from a European: I just wanted to provide a baseline for comparison.

Here in scandinavialand we watched The Wave (1981) in school to educate us on how easily a population can be convinced to support fascism.

Seconded. I tend to shed accounts from time to time, mostly for practical reasons.... you will never guess my previous two account names.

Seriously though, posting with a new identity every time is what 4chan does. While it has its use cases, never being able to conjure an opinion on the person you're talking to over time is tiresome and annoying at best. You can spend am entire year talking to people and at the end of it you haven't gotten to know anyone even slightly better than before.

Privacy is one thing. But being a perpetual blank slate gives you no advantages.

I sometimes skim top 6 hours on All. Sometimes even 1 hour.

100% agree.

To add to this, when I'm looking up something online I want info provided by the internet in general, not just by my next door hillbilly.

EDIT: Downvoted by my next door hillbilly and his siblings

Haven't you heard? Pearson's requires at least Linux 2.

Just confirming the point about Lenovo. Bought a brand new Lenovo Legion last fall, and I didn't even bother booting Windows once before I started from a Linux Mint install USB.

After wrapping up the install, everything worked out of the box, including Lenovos hotkey for toggling the keyboard LEDs.

I found out Lenovo has a copilot key (keycode 201). Yesterday I remapped it to running a shell script that toggles some keyboard parameters.

I made some rocket fuel chili oil a while back. I add about half a teaspoon to the water while waiting for it to boil.

At least this is the vegan option. They used to be made from cat snouts.

I only have to count to 5

I can't speak on behalf the other moderators, but what I can say is that personally I have a pretty high bar for actually deleting stuff.

If a post or comment is clearly in breach of rules AND (offensive OR spam OR of no quality), then I might delete it. If it's only mildly against the rules and it isn't really hurting anyone, I might just lock it - most content have an audience, even if it's technically against the rules.

Sometimes I even leave a post intact with the only mod action that I pin a comment saying something along the lines of "Technically against the rules, but it gets to stay because of (insert reason)"

Hook it into a perl script to automate a lot of both my job and my work email.

I would tell nobody, but seem superhuman in terms of information I can conjure.

Bacon and watermelon

Which language do you use for the title, though?

They're related but not the same. Political correctness is about taking steps not to offend anyone. Wokeism is more about acknowledging societal issues and lack of inclusivity.

Short answer: 1000 came before 500.

Nuanced answer: An Amiga (don't recall the original name) was released at some point, and Amiga decided to make a cheaper alternative. This cheaper alternative was the 500, and the older model was retroactively renamed 1000.
