The Ratio or Ratioed refers to an unofficial Twitter law which states that if the amount of replies to a tweet greatly outnumbers the number of retweets and likes, then the tweet is bad. Additionally, “to ratio” a tweet means to make a quote retweet or reply that manages to get more likes and retweets than the quoted post.
Massive downvote to upvote discrepancy on Lemmy would constitute “a ratio” / “getting ratioed“.
EDIT: A lot of you are reading into the tweet while still somehow agreeing with the overall message.

What began as an innocent and unexpected encounter is about to trigger an inferno of violence. For Shearman Waxx is not merely a ferocious literary enemy, but a ruthless sociopath, and now he is intent on destroying Cubby and everything he holds dear: his home, his wife, his young son, and every hope he had in the world.
The terror has only just begun, and it will be relentless…
Using glacial ice in drinks is a common practice in Greenland, and, over the years, several entrepreneurs have unsuccessfully attempted to export it.
The fjords around Greenland are usually full of icebergs that have broken off glaciers which are connected to the Greenland ice sheet.
The first stage of the shipping, from Greenland to Denmark, is, Arctic Ice argues, of low carbon-intensity, as most refrigerated shipping containers that leave Greenland would have been empty, because the country imports more frozen goods than it exports.
It has now committed to becoming fully carbon-neutral, and once the supply chain has been established and Arctic Ice’s carbon footprint calculated, all excess emissions will be calculated and compensated for …
“Helping Greenland in its green transition is actually what I believe I was brought into this world to do,” Rasmussen said. “We do have that agenda running through the company, but we may not have communicated it well enough yet.”
This is what green transitions look like!
Such horrible taste.

Bet you they’re protecting themselves against battery life complaints. Apple Knows Best!
Not a custom lock option, but to make your life marginally easier:
There are no shortcut actions as of Mar’23 to trigger auto-lock. The closest thing I can think of (which I use personally) is this shortcut to quickly open Auto-Lock in settings menu.
So that would save a second… “Hey Siri, I’m commuting // autolock” -> the settings pop open. Source
From up that thread as well:
I always set my auto lock default to never. Then whenever I need the screen to lock automatically I’ll just toggle low power mode from control centre.

No seriously, there are persuasive arguments for protecting speech that is utterly abhorrent… who remembers their John Stuart Mill well enough to chime in?
“I love New Year’s resolutions. This year I’m trying to walk 10,000 steps a day. Woo! When we’re all sharing those out loud and you said give up ketamine, it felt less like a resolution we share with our colleagues and more like something we’ve voiced to close friends and family.
I notice starting on Jan one and then going, it looks like indefinitely, you put two hour blocks every day from 11 to one for protecting your piece. Can you just share a little bit more with me about how these pertain to our work as a consulting firm?
As a friendly etiquette reminder, I know we’ve been out for the holidays for a bit, but addressing the client as BB and email or verbally, not gonna fly.
I know we have that kind of goal setting session and you said, I wanna be that b*****. It’s not a smart goal. Remember we talked about smart goals. So it’s hard for us to measure against.
When you send us all of those like 30 snap chats of the New Year’s party you attended screaming, give me a kiss to like multiple men and women. It felt like a window into your life that we as your colleagues shouldn’t be peering into.
When I pinged you, I was like, where are you? Are you joining? And you were like, it’s 730 a.m. I’m still recovering from the holidays. I got to stop back. I was like, huh? You know, I was like, huh?
We are here to support you and I as your boss, especially I wanna do that. One of your goals, however, it felt like a little more of a personal goal. It was, I need a boyfriend, I’m down bad. I totally, I totally get it. I being alone, especially the holidays, it sucks. That’s not really like a work goal.”

Unfortunately it’s not really funny anymore. Well I think it is but I have the creator’s mannerisms and timing in mind while reading. Hopefully you’re getting this notification when you can sound rn.
