  • The digital national ID is not corporate or government snooping. If you believe it is, I don't think this conversation can continue. What it is, is what's needed to log into your doctors system to schedule an appointment, or the schools system to read updates about your kids, or to log into your online banking. All of that, and more, in my country, is using the same ID system, which won't work on a rooted android phone (at least, I haven't been able to make it work for the past 3-4 major versions).

  • Yes but do they support the digital national ID and SSO apps that are (only) avaliable for android and apple? Until they do, a lot of users are going to be locked into those two big OS vendors. 😞

  • You could definitely use lemmy for dating if you wanted to. But dating apps offer eg. geographic filtering and (at least should!) do a much better job of guiding users to make meaningful profiles. Lemmy has no need for such.

  • Agreed, OkC used to be quite all right but they took away so much of what made it unique.

    I would be interested in such scripts. Why not share them here? 🙏

  • I looked into this not too long ago. Got them to share their user profile numbers - 50k - but I've a strong feeling that the majority of those are dummy test profiles.

  • That is depressingly insightful. See also: the internal war on everyone who isn't a middle-aged white cis het man (and even some of them, too). Just negativity all around.

    What really brings me down it's the certainty that even if that is guy was suddenly not there anymore, there is a whole gaggle of like folk ready to continue that same rhetoric. How do you even dig yourselves out of that?

  • I have commented stuff like this before, and gotten it deleted (or gotten summarily banned). I have been searching for spaces where this sort of discourse is even allowed, where non-vagina-havers get to say that many men suck but it's not only their fault and they certainly can't fix it in a vacuum.

  • For any pro sport known for rowdy, destructive fans - the clubs get to pay for the police and insurance expenses.

    Oh, this would bankrupt the clubs, I hear you say? Oh no. Anyway...!

  • What mates you think I was overkill to replace a ceo?

    🙂 Thank you for bringing up a fun memory.

  • That's a solid "The entire Caramba" album.

    You might've heard (of) Habba Habba Zoot Zoot; well, they made an entire album of "plausible sounding" songs in German, Japanese, Finish, American, Russian, etc. It's really quite hilarious.

    Here's a Spotify link: https://open.spotify.com/artist/57BijyLUDfabkaaSwZsxsS

  • I'd pay good money, and sign whatever necessary, to get to relive the latter part of your third point. So many fun things got removed, not all of it for good reason....

  • She poly bombed me, came out as narcissist, and made derogatory remarks about me making a solid effort to understand poly and maintain our marriage.

    Now, she's still extremely mad at me, still very much acting like a narcissist would, and I'm the one in a harmonious poly relationship.

    It's hella tough, making a split family work when she absolutely refuses to communicate directly with me. My poor kids are stuck in the middle of this mess which will likely never mend.

    But apparently that's better than giving me just a couple of weeks to get to grips with her desires. It's hard to forgive.

  • I have not heard of Uplink (nor Bitburner). But I really recommend you try skynetsimulator.com - I am not affiliated, yadda yadda, it's just a fun, free, online game.

  • Without a doubt, the bar in Ulence Flats! Different live bands on stage, very eclectic, always recognisable.

    Edit: one example (in case time bookmark doesn't work, skip to 9m 16s)

  • I love parking closer to the car on my right, where the passe doors face one another. If everyone did this, there would be so much more room to get in and out of vehicles.

    And yes, I'm aware that not all cars are single occupant... but too many of them are.

  • Slack?

    Jump
  • Look, slack is 1000% better than Teams will ever be. But, Slack is also enshittifying themselves, eg. with their 3-month event horizon.

    Anything Slack can do, Mattermost does -- and Mattermost is free, open source, and self-hostable.

    This is my hill.

  • And yet, her hands are poised for touch typing. Curious.

  • My sincere apologies, Mexico is definitely on the good list.

  • Leave me be, I'm agnostic. Bother me with religious nonsense and see the atheist come out and ruin your day.

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world
