No, because if I use the credit card issued by my bank, I have to remember to pay it back. The bill doesn’t appear the same day, so I have to check back a few days later. Just long enough to forget half the time. There is no automatic payoff, so I see it as a trap to charge interest from me.

Edit, I’m in the USA

I am far too forgetful for this to change the outcome for me.

Either your definition of small car is extra tiny or your definition of normal things is exaggerated.

Jobs need trucks. Daily driving doesn’t.

Does prion disease affect pigs who eat other pigs? Is it one of the reasons we are extra careful to cook pork thoroughly?

Does it need to be upside down? Can someone “pilot” it if it were mounted upright?

Usernameblankface, 9 months ago

I’m still waiting for someone to come up with something sort of kind of like Place but not a complete clone.

Also, why do teacher need to do all the grading?

Usernameblankface, 9 months ago

And so it goes when you set impossible standards for yourself built on a misinterpretation of what it means to be a “good person.”

It amazes me that “made more money” doesn’t immediately sell this to every company across the world. But no, making people work longer hours to feel like the company is more productive is more important than making money and actually being more productive.

Usernameblankface, 9 months ago

Interesting. I think you’re right. Management sees employment as an exchange of money for time. If productivity drops, the common response is more pressure to perform and reminding you of your place as the employee, and that your time is bought and paid for.

Legend has it that someone local to my parents place complained to the nearest town police about people constantly rolling through the stop sign at the intersection in front of their house. The police parked up within sight of the intersection, and the first person they pulled over for a rolling stop was the same one who had called in the complaint.

Story goes the cop immediately gave up and drove back to the nearest town where he came from.

I haven’t seen the point of saying anything against the man who is the face of a group of people who are only interested in milking all the money they can out of reddit. It’s just an expression of anger.

I have much more appreciation for “so long, and thanks for all the fish”

Usernameblankface, 10 months ago

Oh, oh no.

Usernameblankface, 10 months ago

Thank you

That’s been the overwhelming response each time I’ve seen it brought up. I want to help put little Lemmy symbols or something, but I haven’t seen one forming when I’ve had a chance to check

I mean, you can start by blocking or hiding the community set up specifically to talk about reddit

Does Newpipe have YouTube videos? Is it an entirely separate video sharing site?

Usernameblankface, 10 months ago

Same content plus more content and ad free? Sign me up!

I mean that I’m going to go download that immediately.

Thanks!

Usernameblankface, 10 months ago

Ok, there are 4 different apps in the Google app store by that name.

Usernameblankface, 10 months ago

Ok thank you.

Usernameblankface, 10 months ago (edited 10 months ago)

Ok, I went to the website, downloaded the app from there. Samsung and or Android warned me about it, but I went ahead. Seems to be legit, it just takes forever to load anything. Feeds, thumbnails, starting a video all take a long time.

My one guess is that 1.1.1.1 is interfering?

Edit: yes, that was it. I allowed Newpipe to bypass 1.1.1.1 DNS and it’s loading just as fast as YouTube itself now. Should have tried that before posting here.

My input for anyone on board for this is to start with the Lemmy logo. Put it everywhere, subtle and varied like the among us characters had been done before. Then, quickly, put one bold one and focus on getting the word Lemmy next to it. If the moderators don’t immediately squash that, go on to the other words you have laid out here.

Alternatively, put the smallest readable size of the word Lemmy.com all over Place.

Usernameblankface, 10 months ago

That would have been great. I’m away from the computer, but I kept looking for anything Kbin or Lemmy in the mix.

I’m sure we will have another round of recap videos on YouTube that will be made up of screenshots

Usernameblankface, 10 months ago

Ah, now I understand what was going on with them. Thank you for writing this all out for me.
