Nice. I enjoy them too.
I guess I should have spoken only for myself there. For me, I think the novelty will wear off in a few months.
These folks are definitely struggling and being taken advantage of somehow. It’s fun to point and laugh, but I also feel sorry for them.
The OP runs this community and sovcit posts have gotten the best continued traction here.
Everyone loves laughing at them and it’s valid “insane people Facebook” posts.
I think we’ll likely see less sovcit posts as time goes on and people get bored reading the same sad story of these people over and over again. But it’ll take a bit for the novelty to wear off
And then 34 tomorrow. Lol, lmao.
Agnostics would say this is a strawman argument. Unicorns and religions/gods are not related.
FYI, lots of people have different grocery needs so a broad statement like “grocery trips are $N these days” is pretty meaningless without the context of your purchases or needs.
A better example might be “my grocery bills are up 50% this year with no changes to what I buy!!”
My grocery budget has changed the last few years, but from $65 average to now $85 average. That said the supplemental food I buy (occasional orders out, etc) has risen significantly more, probably upwards of +60% at times.
Sorry to hear that. I hope you get to sleep next to your wife and dogs soon.
Rae Drummond has a reported net worth of approx $65m as of last year.
The top 1% of United States net worth starts at $12m. She is just inside the top 0.1% of us net worth which starts at $62m.
Your comment is doing the same (and so is mine).
Why complain, just scroll past?
So what changed with Lemmy then? A few months back when I joined the ecosystem many instances including LW were unreachable for many hours a day. Joining up to a new instance didn’t make LW content appear (as they were offline).
The issues today feel largely the same as a user, though less frequent. Am I misunderstanding?
If the instance that hosts those communities goes down or struggles to stay afloat won’t it struggle to federate its content outside its own network?
If I join another instance and lemmy.world is down, it’s not like I can see the communities on lemmy.world.
Joining another instance as a user doesn’t solve the problem that lemmy.world has bad uptime outside of the scope of reducing the load on LW itself
Yes exactly. Because anyone can spin up their own instance and communities on that instance, there are many duplicates of traditionally popular communities from other social sites. It used to be worse here, but it’s still pretty bad around sports, politics, and many niche groups.
Your insurance benefit offered after health milestones isn’t 30-130% of your salary though
Running 30km (18.6 miles) in a month earns a bonus equivalent to 30% of their monthly salary. Moving up to 40km (24.8 miles) pushes that to 40%. Hitting 50km (31 miles) earns 100%, and the top tier of 100km (62 miles) is 130%
objectively be more secure in terms of data privacy
Please elaborate how email would be objectively more secure if you could block Gmail.
You can already block Gmail today from any other provider by putting a filter on incoming @gmail addresses. How does that make email more secure?
This thread isn’t about kbin though. We don’t need to clutch pearls about other services on fediverse when discussing what happens with Lemmy instances.
Fortifying foods is very important in Africa and lots of ongoing research and rollouts are happening there. Neat to see China doing it as well successfully, but they are not the only nation trying to solve nutrition and hunger
Agreed about corn fortification coming from China specifically being interesting.
where the share of people in working age will go down significantly
That’s happening in most developed nations, btw.
Hey OP, check out this defcon talk. I think it’s relevant to your question https://youtu.be/01oeaBb85Xc?si=UDuEjhJLxp6Ysjl5
Because it’s not one account but an individual user (bot) per team.
Uhh it’s not like the UK is actually any better in this situation if it’s true that they are sending random migrants to Rwanda
