Reminds me of the short story podcast ‘The Truth’ episode - “They’re Made out of Meat”. In fact I think it may have been a short story I once read online beforehand, that they may just have dramatized. (?)

So, dude makes art on the internet and wanted to use his output to create a revenue stream for himself? Shocking, how dare he. Randall Munroe got popular doing xkcd, and now he’s written books just to further make a name for himself. A damning indictment.
A rose by any other name?
It’s like he’s a real life Zaphod Beeblebrox, only far, far worse.

Good evening. Tonight’s nightmare/night terror is brought to you by erev@lemmy.world.
“clipped” - you just reminded me of that episode of House, where the clinic patient (tw: gross) has been using his toenail clippers to trim his nose hair, and he developed a fungus.
PSA - Buy a trimmer specific for that purpose.
Yes - I’m considering this about myself recently, that I have been undiagnosed ASD and ADHD. Try the test on the ADHD Centre’s website, and cross-reference with the Aspie test perhaps. Then if you get positive results, take these to your local (or even the ADHD centre or another nearby private clinician, since the waiting times could be quite long 3-10 years in the UK).
I can definitely relate to those issues and it matches with my yet-unconfirmed, highly suspected case of AuDHD. It’s quite common to have both.

My son was premature and racked up 14 days in the NICU. The hospital (which is ‘legally a charity’ billed $250,000.00. We were low-income with no employer-provided medical insurance, so the state Medicare provider got to pay a reduced rate of that.
Libretube. Get v0.19 or higher, youtube just screwed around with its code and broke v0.18. I love how it works with sponsor block to even skip those “this video is brought to you by xyz incorporated, be sure to Yada Yada Yada…” segments.
Seems like the server side infrastructure is already there, and the clients just need to integrate it. It’s not as simple as an API call though but I guess it utilizes the Don’t Repeat Yourself and keep it simple (stupid) software development principles. Would be good to see this implemented
On instances where downvoting is disabled, the button serves no purpose and will now not be displayed unless the instance permits it. The existence or absence of the downvote button is feedback on whether or not posts can be downvoted.
If the button is not displayed then < your particular Lemmy instance > is the one to be accused of going the way of Youtube.
Interestingly though, since you’re posting from Lemmy.world, I checked the list and your instance does allow downvoting. Maybe it’s a bug for !voyagerapp@lemmy.world
I on voyager 1.2.0 and downvote button appears for me btw.
Always has been
That is a fact. But they can screw each other, if they’re old enough. But they’r still classified as kids. “Adolescent kid” is a subjective term, and I would even suggest raising the age higher than 16: until they’re legally adults.
I think the question is coming from a “why is it different in different countries” point of view.
I’m not going to Google it and put myself on a watch list, but I think I recall hearing some back-asswards country where the age of “consent” was 14, or some even lower. Culturally that doesn’t make any sense to me - but then i agree with you that kids shouldn’t be screwer nor screwee.
The other ages are interesting too - in the UK we wait for our teens to grow up a bit before putting them behind the wheel of a car. The driving age is 18 - and forget even getting affordable insurance until you’re 25 anyway.
I’m subscribed to a few meme communities, a few news communities and special interest. I browse on Subscribed and if I see no fresh posts I look through All for a bit. If I see nothing of interest/new then I stop lurking for a bit and come back later.
If you’re seeing too much xyz, it’s because you’re subscribed to too many xyz communities.
Surely you mean
Because ICANN
The ‘small caps’ really gave it away to me but I wasn’t familiar with which book - thank you! The Death books were always very humanizing in an interesting way, His scenes were always my favourite.
