Let’s live like a community.
Unless you’re gay or trans or non-religious. While you’re doing community activities with me, I’m going to spend every other waking moment trying to get your human rights taken away.
But when I have time, we’ll schedule some of those community things.
Fuuuuck my mistake. I thought this was a comment I left in reference to Artemis for kbin lmao.
Think the link is discontinued or something, I can’t find it on the Play Store, and they don’t have any Android links up rn. I’ll just keep waiting patiently…lol
Has he said he’s making an app for it?
Artemis was supposed to be coming this week, no word yet.
You also have to use it from the artemis.camp instance, but that’s temporary until the kbin api is finished.
As previous student who was in school when cell phones blew up in usage, I wasn’t not preoccupied by my phone because I had to keep it hidden. I was preoccupied with keeping it hidden so I could keep using it. Texting with T9 without looking was a breeze. The only thing that slowed my usage was the fact I only had like 500 texts a month allotted to me.
Making the kids hide it won’t make them less distracted. They just become distracted by hiding the phone. I feel like you’d almost have to just ban phones entirely, which today is pretty impractical.
Wanna argue about it???
I and another dude modded a 30k+ sub. There were 5 mods, but the other 3 are basically gone at that point, and I was brought on because I was active in the community. We both left, and within a week users are complaining about the slacking mods and wondering why spam is getting through, why discussion threads aren’t posted, etc.
We didn’t do anything with the shutdown, as it wasn’t “our” community to shut down. We were just brought on for workload reasons. But we’re both gone now, and the cracks were showing immediately.
Sadly, I’m fairly certain it’s literally just me in the equivalent fed community. Haven’t seen any other subs, at least.
Yup. I will “respond” to so many things, but I tend to not post the response. Just typing out my thoughts is usually enough, and when thinking more critically of what the motivation of my response is, it usually tends to boil down to “I want this other person to think I’m correct”. But that’s exactly why they responded first, and then it turns into an argument. No one is trying to learn, we’re trying to win.
Mine are still there, but edited it to a general narrative of what happened and why I edited/left the platform. I didn’t get all my comments, cause it was numbering in the 5000s I think, and no don’t care to be that through. But it got many of them, and the API changes I ruin make it hard to do now.
If I were to pick one, I’d call it the Menocene. Seems apt.
I did Google it though, if you want the actual answer.
The subdivision I currently live in, squarely in suburbia, has like a dozen kids out every single night playing in various front yards. The parents hang out in the driveways to monitor. Been that way for over a decade. All I and my friends did when I was younger was either play video games or dick around in the yard, playing football or whatever we were doing at the time. The park was far away, and we couldn’t drive, and our parents worked. We had a yard 4 feet from the front door, where else are we gonna play?
Maybe in town you’d go to the park because the other option was the street.
I was under the impression that was how it was supposed to function; boosts were the upvote and downvote is the downvote, but boosts were weighted more heavily? Or something? Lmao it seems unnecessarily complicated, just stick with up or down.
It’s an alright way to see if someone is commenting on good-faith or not. Anytime I saw someone saying highly controversial things, I’d check their account to see if they were just downvote collecting or actually held the view. It’s harder to do that now; my account says I’m at like…-30 something, on a single comment that went beyond a few people’s sensibilities. I could have put an /s on it but that defeats the purpose.
But anyone that looks at my profile now to make the “good faith” check will see me at -30, despite other contributions.
It is dumb how people worry about the number, but it does have other uses besides just a popularity indicator.
As a previous cashier, best way to do it is to take your middle finger and swipe down across the center. Like a vertical slap on the bag’s face. About the middle of the bag, pull your arm back towards you. It will usually separate the outside wall of the bag from the stack, and when you pull towards you, the bag will “stick” to your finger and then open at the top.
I hated moving slowly as a cashier, cause lines made me mad. So I had to find the quickest way to do everything, and that method works great (for me) until about the last 4 bags.
