It does not give the exact answer, only an approximation.

They said “the official version”.

With SourceHut, other people can submit patches by e-mail, no need to create an account.

As the OP said, there are FOSS hosted forges. You don’t need to self-host.

I just wouldnt want to see sneaky "promoted" posts aka ads

Nobody is forcing you to follow users/communities on Threads.

Time to use the Element Picker feature of uBlock Origin.

What can you get to within a 15-minute walk of your house?

A recent YouGov survey asked Americans what they think they should be able to get to within a 15-minute walk of their house.

Of these choices, I can currently walk to all of them from my apartment, aside from a university (no biggie, I'm not currently studying, although there is a Tafe within walking distance), a hospital, and a sports arena.

How many can you get to with a 15 minute walk from your house?

“It’s not important enough to be in the local government’s target list”

I think this is the correct interpretation given the exact wording of the question.

Matrix, for example, is an open protocol for real-time messaging.

I’m 21 and completely agree.

Features such as being locked in to a bloated proprietary client that doesn’t even respect your date format settings? Or having to give your phone number to a shady company?

It’s clearly a conspiracy by Big Scale to sell more scales.

It’s called “redundant acronym syndrome”, or “RAS syndrome” for short.

LaTeX produces PDFs, which are hard to read on small devices. Just write a website.

If Discord suspects that you’re using a temporary e-mail, they will demand your phone number.

If Discord is simple, why does the Discord app have 149 MB?

I’d just like to interject for a moment…

But only supports expensive devices, as far as I’m aware.

And then everyone thunderously clapped. The child’s name? Albert Einstein.

Edit: Oh, I didn’t notice that the text contains numbers in square brackets. That obviously means it’s well-sourced and therefore true.

Looks like your sarcasm detector is broken. Just like Teams.

I was banned from The Finals for playing on Linux

How is that not illegal?

xigoi ,
@xigoi@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

I would say claiming that a game supports a certain operating system and then banning players for playing it on the system is false advertising, especially if the game is paid.

If someone buys a product from you, you shouln’t be able to deny them from using it based on arbitrary criteria without a refund.

Oh, it’s free? Then never mind.

There used to be a community for this on the website that shall not be named. “Don’t Dead Open Inside” I think?

It doesn’t look straight at all, there is a large bend.

“Best of both worlds” doesn't literally mean expressing everything on a numeric scale and averaging it out.

xigoi OP ,
@xigoi@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Nothing. And neither should we take anything from the far left. It's the moderates that have good ideas.

xigoi OP ,
@xigoi@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Some things I like from the left:

  • The general idea of changing things that are bad instead of sticking to traditions
  • Gay marriage and other rights
  • More efficient and affordable healthcare
  • Abortion (though ideally I'd find it fair if “paper abortion” was also a thing)
  • FOSS (though most people don't have a strong opinion on that)
  • Public transportation

Some things I like from the right:

  • General cautiousness about the negative effects of new policies (for example, schools catering to problematic students at the expense of the other students)
  • Trying to minimize unnecessary government intervention
  • Support of free speech (used to be a leftist thing, seems to depend on who is being censored more)
  • Cautiousness about illegal immigration
  • Banning of harmful addictive drugs

And what I don't like about either:

  • Takes on gender/race equality (left tries to achieve it but has a different idea of what equality looks like, right seems content with inequality)
  • Voter fraud prevention (right wants the requirement of a driving license or something, left wants no verification at all; I like the normal system of requiring an identity card that every citizen gets for free from the government)

Based on these, I'd consider myself centrist or maybe a bit left-leaning, but the far left would consider me a Nazi and the far right would consider me a communist or something.

Also note that I'm not from the USA and I see USA politics through the lens of what I know to work and not work in my country.
