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

And then 34 tomorrow. Lol, lmao.

Could you elaborate on which? I’ve seen a lot of sketchy reviews recently

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.

I mean the game came out in 2012. It’s not really that absurd to base ones licensing contracts for 14 years when the medium (games) generate the vast majority of their revenue in the first months.

Most digital products have an end of life. I agree that the whole digital ownership part isn’t fair, but I don’t think a 14 year selling window due to licensing is the part to be mad at.

That’s an incubator!

Bend gets snowed out frequently and suffers from a lack of diversity. It could use some more folks for sure but idk if people would want to live there in the winter

I’ve jumped in a few times since they started letting people play years ago! I’m a big fan and am eager to give 1.0 a whirl.

I like how they are embracing the solo vs trading play style and leaning into rewarding both types of players uniquely with power for that choice.

Arpgs like Diablo or pathofexile are my “will always play” games. Like you I’ve played the mmos, shooters, and others and feel like I’ve “finished” those genres and am satisfied not going back unless with friends.

It’s both a nice feeling but also a sad one. I still follow fps games and watch videos of them, but playing them… Meh

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

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.

Why do I/ society need to detox because you have attention problems? How does your similar-to-adhd affect me? How does my phone usage affect you?

Sounds like you are the one who needs to detox… but those are your words not mine.

Idc if you need six different stimuli to function, it doesn’t affect me. If it affects you, you should change you

It did. Lots of times. I’ve seen this headline multiple times. People don’t seem to care.

A solid amount of new memes I see are from Tumblr posts. A lot of people went back prior to Twitter changing ownership, and then many more after that too.

Be me. Like a thing. Find issues with thing. Share those issues with the devs. Dopamine. Find better avenue for sharing issues. Do issue finding in my spare time with my own free will. Get shamed on internet for doing my own thing.

Yeah ok.
