Don’t plead anything. Don’t talk at anll until you have a lawyer there.
When my son was 2 he had trouble with the F sound and would substitute D.
So there was a video my Mom sent me after he had slept over at her house of birds flying by and he said “the birds died!” And she asks him why the birds died. And he replied, “they are looking for dood (food)”.
My mom is hard of hearing and just totally didn’t get it, so she was all concerned he had some weird morbid thing going on. My wife and I laughed so hard when we heard the second sentence about dood (food).
Yeah any nag screen needs to be disabled for at least a period of time after a donation (permanently, or replaced with a quick thank you screen for ongoing contributions).
Clearly reporting finances and costs is nice to see too and makes it more compelling for contribute in my opinion. A few Lemmy instances are doing that now and it makes it easy to want to contribute if you can.
If you could figure out how to make soap from fat, you could be the clean one. Supposedly that helped the Vikings take the ladies home.
Tiny photocell powered calculators used to be everywhere. There were “thin” ones to fit in your Costanza sized wallet, Mousepads with them built in, and my wristwatch in 6th grade had one with tiny rubber keys.

My brother and I are rebuilding it this summer. The pool at my moms house is also being re-plastered so we’re going to drill and epoxy new bolts in the deck and sand and fiberglass the old wood, which hopefully isn’t too rotten.
Gotta get my 7 y/o diving off it this summer.
Looks exactly like this model but with on thicker spring instead of the 2. My 6’3 230lb dad could just about bottom it out.
We were riding off skate ramps at the time though. If I lived in a place with separate bike lanes I might consider going helmet-less. But I’ve also been hit by a car and likely saved a lot of brain damage by having a helmet on. Same with skiing (helmets and accidents, not hit by a car!).
Bike helmets didn’t get common until 6th grade or so. Same with face guards and mouth guards in anything but football.
We also had a diving board with a full size car spring. A gymnast pal could do double flips off it.
Probably voter disenfranchisement actually.
Yeah, maga republicans hold a religious belief now, not an informed political one.
You’re questioning their whole world view when you bring up counter arguments, so a careful approach that works in from the edges of that belief are the only arguments I’ve been able to have.
How is Krita? I’m on a Mac and my biggest problem with Gimp and Inkscape has always been lack of MacOS integration. Mostly with the UI but even shortcuts were wrong when I tried it. And the mouse/trackpad gestures were the dealbreaker.
I use Pixelmator, which hopefully continues to be a well developed pay once app, even though Apple just bought them. That and Sketch get me all the design tools I need for 2D and web.
Yup this didn’t start till after the 2000 election.
What decade though. I did too, but it was the 1980s.
They got rid of it in many outpaces as a reaction to the Bush admin saying phonics works and arranging to mandate it.
It was probably the only thing Bush was right about, but common core was not the way to implement it.
I know you don’t need the validation, but I have 6-7 domains that don’t have email on them at the moment.
It’s actually really hard to get a billion dollars directly from the lottery.
You pay like 60% (or more maybe?) taxes if you take it as a lump sum. And still lots of taxes if you annuitize it, and then it will take too long to be a billionaire unless you win it in your 20s maybe.
Shake Shack is the closest to In n out if you’re not on the west coast.
I wonder if it’s related to training on website comments, which often role the same trajectory.
I also wonder if this isn’t something that someone has “told” an LLM, and that now it’s just parroting it back. It all fits with my opinion of the AI craze.
No /s anywhere to be found.
Edit: forgot to look at which server I was on.
