Is she just starting college? A relationship with someone who’s not at her school might be rough for her. I’d be forever disappointed if I didn’t have those life experiences.
Yeah, there’s really nothing wrong with a 50 year old dating a 19 year old. Age is just a number. There’s no power imbalance there or expectations. It’s perfectly healthy for the 19 year old to get into a long term relationship where their partner is going to be 70 before they’re 40.
Or, maybe, half your age + 7 is a good rule. It’s pretty lenient.
Yeah, this is probably the way I’d go about it. Dedicated hard drive, separate/no network access, no access to other files. Who cares if it is malware if it can’t get to anything.
The four day head start thing being bullshit was a good point. But yeah, I’m not likely to pirate an executable any time soon.
Sure, there’s that. Also, sometimes I just write bad.
One of my last comments on Reddit was about this.
The biggest difference I’ve noticed is that people have stopped reading sentences. They’ll read all the words and then upvote based on the feeling those individual words give them. They won’t consider the meaning of all those words put together.
And yeah, “upvote does not mean agree” is something Reddit has always struggled with, but it has definitely had exponential growth lately.
It has made me start writing more clearly. There are comments I’ve written that have been wildly misinterpreted from my actual meaning. Part of that is that I tend towards sarcasm, and it doesn’t translate well over the internet no matter how absurd I get with it. But I’ve also started aiming to use more simple sentence structure.
New roof, solar panels, battery, EV, remodel part of the house, new siding, buy a small house in my neighborhood to function as a guest house, take care of my parents, spend a couple months in Europe.
Oh, you meant the rest of it. Government bonds are always good. You can also use more than one bank to expand the $250k limit (which applies per account type and bank). A trust, for example, is insured separately from your checking account.
Past that, I couldn’t tell you. Your financial advisor would though, just make sure they have a “fiduciary duty” to serve your interests.
If I clone the repo I expect everything to work, including the readme.
If you’re using Windows, just make sure file extensions are visible and that your file isn’t named Movie.mp4.exe
!league@lemmy.ml just ain’t there yet.
I know someone who’s pirated books and then donated directly to the author or signed up for their Patreon for a few months.
Oh, I’m sure they were all doing stuff. It just wasn’t necessarily stuff that’s easy to monetize.
There’s a reason Reddit’s reliability has shot up over the past decade despite ever increasing popularity. Plus there’s all the dumb shit they added like the bullshit awards.
The way to make big money for the past 20 years hasn’t been to sell better mousetraps. It’s been to attract venture capital. Your revenue didn’t matter as much as your size, and your size was determined by your employees and how much you spend.
It’s why Uber, whose business model is entirely skimming off of taxi drivers who provided their own cars, wasn’t profitable…
With the interest rate hikes, the investment money is drying up, and all these places are discovering they actually need to make money from their users now, and all that bloat is now a negative instead of a positive.
Basically we’re all paying the price for the stupid fucking investment bubble that’s existed for two decades. An investment bubble that existed because nobody was at the wheel driving the direction of this economy until now.
And of course the billionaires don’t want to sacrifice shit, so they’re making sure it all rolls downhill to their employees and their customers and doesn’t touch their profits in the slightest.
The content has gotten significantly worse.
Maybe we should find an ad agency and crowd source funds to make slick advertisements for Lemmy and Mastodon. I feel like you should promote a specific instance for each though, and avoid the “join-mastodon” page.
The way the instances are split does not generally make much sense for the user. It’s extremely arbitrary. We all know why, and that it’s not a bad thing altogether, but it’s bad for the user experience. That aspect of federation is not something we should promote.
I was in M2-XFE. That whole experience certainly taught a lot about the power of narrative and propaganda. And the later blockade showed what leadership failures look like.
We always had the advantage in that blockade, and could have stayed there for another year had the allies stuck together. Or we could have executed real plans to break them and end the war. Instead we did the worst of both.
