3rd party can’t really gain power with first past the post. We have to implement ranked choice or approval voting before meaningful 3rd party choices are viable.

You’re right, if you alone can’t fix everything, there’s really no point to trying.

For me the problem is technicians who are arriving during some multi hour window of time.

Out of curiosity, have you been a moderator before?

It’s a fairly thankless job that you volunteer for. Most people aren’t doing it out of some lust for power, they’re just doing their best and sometimes make bad calls.

Are there shitty ones out there? Sure. But many of them are just trying to make nice spaces for their interest.

Isn’t that the status quo? I guess it’s not really fathers to daughters, but most women I know went through some amount of “here’s how to be a good wife” lessons from their mothers or family. I think women get a lot of “traditional gender roles” training that’s mostly about being caretakers.

Usually people putting forth this kinda “women should learn how to care for their man” attitude are coming from a conservative “traditional family values” position.

Really, we should be teaching people how to ask about and learn the needs of their partner, and how to determine your own needs and communicate those to your partner. Basic emotional intelligence stuff. It doesn’t have to be gendered at all.

I hit a deer while listening to the band Deerhunter. Was a bit surreal.

Somebody convince me I’m wrong.

There is no reason to display “100%” in your UI for more than a single second. Either show 99% and then finish, or show 100% only when you are ACTUALLY done and only show it for a little.

If you’re still doing ANYTHING AT ALL don’t say you’re 100% complete. How is it still like this

Honestly, and what a good episode!

How does Valve prevent you from controlling your own device? Their version of Linux isn’t locked down, you can fully customize it like any Linux afaik.

Reminds me of this https://youtu.be/Fc1P-AEaEp8

Do you wash only a single fitted sheet or duvet cover at a time? Because the problem still happens when I wash my fitted sheet and normal sheets in the same load.

What reason is there for this when the compiler could just optimize that variable out of existence? This feels like the most hand holdy annoying “feature” unless I’m missing something.

Just out of curiosity, would you feel the same way when people say “fuck Russia”, or would you understand that they’re saying “fuck the Russian government/Putin” and not “all Russians are monsters”?

I mean, the old UI wasn’t great. All they did was separate servers and DMs. I hated it at first too, until I learned the differences, and it’s honestly fine.

People seem mad at Discord for how their users use it. Yeah it sucks as a knowledge base since you can’t search it from a search engine, but it’s still easily the best tool for small, privateish communities.

Finally played this last month after buying it on sale 2 years ago. I felt stupid that I waited so long. It’s easily the most well written game in existence. I’ve never had a game make me laugh and think this much.

Pretty sure Cuno straight up says he does drugs.

I’m convinced that big corporations contract it out to the cheapest “production” company that they can find, and they only offer the training so that they can say that they did to shield themselves from potential liability.

Well you didn’t mention The Good Place, but from your username I assume you’ve watched it :) .

Ted Lasso is really great throughout and has a really positive viewpoint while still dealing with tough subjects.

Starstruck (you’ll recognize Rose Matefeo) is a great lightish comedy.
