Don’t like your highschool bully, just bump into their parents back in time. Or you know, “bump” ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) into their parents

Forcing your high school bully to call you daddy is one hell of a power move

I guess we now know what the AI has been trained on

I tag people that never fail to find something to argue about, obvious trolls, bad faith / sea lion conversationalists and so on. If I encounter them again and they show the same behaviour as a pattern, I fully block them.

I also use it for more fun stuff, like who is overly helpful, friendly or who recommended a good book. This way, if I see them again I get reminded of the positive interaction from before

edit: @OmegaLemmy@discuss.online you might want to replace “tag” with “label” or something, people think you mean username @tagging and don’t read the body of your post

Searchcord yes, but not the researchers from the headline

We don’t really need any of those mnemonics because it’s a perfect system

More seriously there is the “King Henry Died, Drinking Chocolate Milk” for the Kilo (1000) Hecto (100) Deca (10), Deci (0.1) Centi (0.01) Milli (0.001), but that doesn’t really help with measuring on the spot, aside from being able to get the prefix right.

There’s an average step being 1 meter, but thats less useful for people with shorter legs unless they want to join the ministry of silly walks.

One that I use often is converting meters per second to kilometers per hour. Because 1 meter per second is 3600 meters per hour or 3.6 kilometers per hour, you can actually skip the multiply by 3600 and then divide by 1000 and just multiply by 3.6.

But aside from time conversions, there isn’t really anything else that can help because it’s just moving the decimal.

Slightly related, you can tell how far away lightning is by listening for the thunder and counting the seconds. Sound travels at 346 m/s so every 3 seconds is roughly 1 kilometer away. But I suppose you can do the same for miles and count to 5.

It also includes deleted messages. And they refuse to delete things when someone opts out

Deleted messages are not included. Neither the public nor the API allows you to read deleted messages

Upon joining a server, users gain access to all non-deleted historical content within public channels, and the same is valid for data retrieval using their API.

Yeah, exactly. It may sound scary or like a violation of privacy, but there is no privacy when posting to public online areas.

Well yeah, it’s not encrypted. It would be the same as 10 years of Reddit posts or Lemmy posts scraped

The real guide is still either outdated or doesn’t take into account that there’s a lot more steps. But considering it’s been 2 years, I don’t hold that against the author

I think that’s too simplified and it will create expectations that aren’t true, because It’s more like this:

1. Choose instance

2. Read & agree to Mastadon rules

3. Read & agree to (instance) privacy terms

4. Create account

5. Tap the verification link in your email

6. Solve the Captcha

7. Get a list of people/users to follow (why these people? What is it based on?)

8. Setup profile

9. Done!

Ah sure, we just don’t see the other bars I guess

Isn’t that the wrong axis? Should be on the vertical one

For lack of guts she brought a gutsy look today

“If we stopped testing right now, we’d have very few cases, if any.”

Hardly, let alone “world news” worthy.

Gaming is apparently hitting all the buttons on the controller all the time

I don’t say no, I say yes and put my discomfort for anything aside, other people’s wants are more important than my feeling

I don’t know why no one is mentioning this, but your feelings are valid and important. Assuming you extend this to people you’ve just met, eventually someone will either take advantage of this or think you like them because you don’t say no, even when uncomfortable.

Don’t do that to yourself. Whatever you did (as a kid), you don’t deserve that.

Partner is also suffering from depression so every freaking time I begged to please turn the tv off, it’s just ended in a 30 minute therapy session at home on how I can improve myself.

Eh, what? What does being depressed have to do with you asking to turn off the TV? I feel like they are using this against you, but there’s not a lot of info to go by.

Perhaps a solution would be to get them headphones, too.

In my experience, they always hire anyone with a pulse and pay them peanuts. Finding a competent and motivated person is a lot harder then.

The only one where they had some sort of screening was because it was support for the government
