LOL. You do you but this sounds like a nightmare to me.

edit: it’s not just “becoming tech support person”, but becoming the default person to blame for everything.

All jokes and snarky witticisms aside, the correlation between sex crimes and conservative politics is remarkable.

If that’s FOMO then pretty much every decision could be considered FOMO. I decided to put my shoes on this morning because I was worried everyone else wearing shoes would enjoy the advantages there-of and I would miss out.

IDK how much parents “modelling” things really helps.

My parents fell for every scheme they encountered their entire lives.

Watching them taught me to be very critical of that kind of thing. I guess they did model what not to do.

No, I think with NFTs people were just looking at the bitcoin train they had missed out on, and thought NFTs would be the next big crypto thing.

Mostly they thought it was just the next big thing.

I think this unique. Not really FOMO and certainly not investing.

I think you can kind of fork this path:

• blame parents
• realise they did what they thought was best
• still be messed up
• wallow in misery continually making the same mistakes every day
• accept your mediocrity

I don’t think that’s true.

I think they know the future is bleak, and they just want to have the best bio dome or whatever the case may be.

As in, they know they’re making things worse, but if they don’t do it someone else will. So in a bleak and shit future, do you want to live like a king, or choke to death like the rest of us.

Sure but if we are building out renewable capability as quick as we can, but it’s being outstripped by demand, then maybe demand is part of the problem.

They know that things are going to be shit. They just wasn’t the nicest yacht to live on when it does.

I guess we would be 30 years from stable scalable fusion reactions?

Backyard chicken wranglers hatch lots of males they don’t want.

Post in fb chicken groups saying you’ll have them.

Go to chicken auctions and buy 6 for $1.

I’ve found myself using this a whole lot. It really is great for finding foss and / or non-US alternatives.

… as will the American people.

Hah.

That’s one way of looking at things I guess…

“Other countries are worse than us so it’s fine”

If you make a list of all the countries which are locking up trans people for being trans, it’s not exactly a club to aspire to.

Americans… SMH

Youre right about the wings.

Youre right the thing shouldn’t spin.

Why were you drilling if it’s an existing hole? You’re using a masonry bit with a hammer setting right?

I wouldn’t re-use this thing. This is the cheap type that comes free with things that need to be fixed to a wall.

Get a new plug matched to the hole and a new screw matched to the plug.

I haven’t read the article but, couldn’t sometime just read the submission and look for the bit that says “forget all previous instructions…” and so on.

Pretty much this… although I usually have at least a few moments of paranoia thinking about what I might be about to lose.

Sorry to be a debbie downer but I have grave concerns about the long term viability of firefox.

Sites obviously don’t test against ff anymore with more and more bugs appearing in more and more sites.

I have to daily drive both ungoogled-chromium and librewolf and sadly, the number of things I need to do in chromium is increasing week by week.

It’s not a conspiracy. It’s been a very well published and discussed process.

There are exceptions but browsers are either reconfigurations of firefox, like librewolf, or reconfigurations of google chrome, like vivaldi.

Some dweeb will be along in a moment to tell us all how vivaldi is not merely a reconfiguration, but the point is …

google changed the manner in which plugins can interact with the web page you see. In recent months you could re-enable the old plugin interface by recompiling with a different configuration, but once google makes a change that breaks that old interface then you can’t just re-enable it.
