You will be making a terrible, stupid and wholly avoidable mistake that can never be undone if you allow others to keep you from attending your own fathers funeral because they make you uncomfortable.

E: you are giving ground by not attending. You already have the right to the ground, you were explicitly asked to attend the funeral. If you choose to be bullied out of the funeral you are giving up the ground you were invited to occupy.

It is an act of cowardice, a retreat, if you don’t attend.

If you’re truly above these people then don’t let them push you around and honor your dying loved one’s wishes in spite of their bullshit!

They are used to getting “non-political” content because Reddit kicked out the “political” people and closed the “political” subs.

Going to the place that those people and communities now reside and complaining that everything feels “political” is ridiculous, but there might be good reasons why a person would do it, like you said.

You’re right that it’s not unreasonable to ask for what they’re asking for. That’s why I tried my god damnedest to clearly and kindly explain that this might not be the right place for them. Not everywhere needs to be for everyone. It’s not an insult to tell someone they’re looking for the library, this is the bus terminal.

Others are espousing different ways to harness the technology using blocks and a subscription feed. If someone believes that an alternative to corporate social media should be for everyone (an explicitly political belief!) then that will be borne out by successful block and sub use. The user might also not succeed at using those tools. In that case they don’t have to stay. They can recognize that they want the curated, “nonpolitical” experience of Reddit. I am not making a judgement of them for wanting that, only recommending they go and get what they want.

That’s what the landscape of sleep is like.

E: The just read the thread and at this moment half the responses are some variation of “yeah I tried a bunch of stuff and it doesn’t work” and the other half are “it works perfectly for my precise state definition on this particular piece of hardware”. My comment is 100% correct and useful information about the state of sleep in Linux at the moment.

Not everything is a fight. Consider reading people’s comments and posts in the voice of miss rachel or something.

This isn’t the right place for your post, but that’s okay. Lemmy is way more spread out than Reddit, so you should make a post like this in every community you intend to use. They’ll be named like the subs you used to like. You’ll find the people you’re looking for much faster that way.

If you have to ask you won’t be able to get it working.

The op is welcome here. When they don’t want to be here they’re welcome to not be.

They can leave. It’s not a bad thing. It’s not an admonition or reprisal for me to say that.

Lemmy was created because of Reddit censoring political content.

If you don’t wanna see political stuff go to a different website.

The above is not a value judgement. If I did not want to be exposed to the sun and the public then I wouldn’t go to a park. If I did not want to be exposed to loud car sounds and screaming fans I wouldn’t go to the racetrack. It’s okay that you don’t want to see political stuff (you should think critically about what you think is political and why). You don’t need to go to lemmy or any other fediverse thing. You can just be a Redditor.

lovingly, with approval and understanding go away.

It’s just a website with information you can read, I don’t wanna tell you what to think about that information or what conclusions to draw!

All conclusions drawn are the readers own.

Enjoy the reading material.

What’s sad is there’s good posts to be made in a Linuxsucks community. The Debian intelligence apparatus takeover/murder-suicide pact alone could keep it going for a year.

The girl reading this.

Without metadata, municipal area. For larger cities that could be at the street or building level, for out in the country it’s wherever your ISPs trunk or fiber breakout is.

With metadata, often times right to your front door. With the isps metadata absolutely to your door.

Yeah, if green energy is used to immiserate people they’ll be against it…

You won’t. When you loosen the stem bolt it’ll come up but it needs to go down so loosen it up maybe a half inch or so then hit the bolt head with a hammer. If you’re worried about messing up the bolt face then put a board or something on top of it and hit that. I used to use an old copy of glens complete bicycle manual as a go between for stem bolts and a four pound sledge.

E: it’s not always clear what’s going on. The stem bolt can keep the stem tight because the stems “base” (the part inside the tube) is cut through diagonally. The part at the bottom is what the stem bolt is actually attached to so when you tighten the bolt the part at the bottom slides out against the rest of the stem and becomes really tight inside the tube. When you loosen it it’s supposed to relieve that tension and become loose but actually it’s rusted in place so you gotta clink the bolt head with a hammer before the stem will come out.

Yank the stem. Loosen the bolt up then hit it with a hammer so it goes back down and pull the stem out.

The nerve gas report used to justify the invasion of Iraq was ripped from a scene in the Nicholas cage/sean Connery movie The Rock.

Oh yeah I just so often target all the way as opposed to anything else that you got me thinking what I could home game a tray of a different kind of burgers down to.

Idk what any of that stuff’s about. People are weird.

Now you got me thinking. What would a $15 burger be to you? I’d say a big, high quality bun, 1/3lb or so patty, mayonnaise, mustard, lettuce, tomato, grilled onion, avocado, bacon.

I bet I could get ingredients for that under $2.50 certainly under $3 for a 20 count.
