Subtle like a jackhammer? ;)

Thanks for this. But the opinion piece is also a good read for its dark humor and subtle sarcasm.

The Document Foundation’s LibreOffice forums are very helpful for questions like this.

All patent enforcement these days feels like trolling. Does anyone know if this company actually developed the tech or if they just acquired the patent for this purpose?

Agreed. I keep trying to use it because that’s where Opensim’s Metaverse Alliance landed when Google Groups shut down, but it’s way too noisy. I wish they’d just settled on a proper forum site like Delphi.

Well, there’s the replacement then.

Thanks for this. Just discovered that an instance where I still have an old account is federated with Threads. Deleting it now.

21st century Mystery Machine with advanced arch-shaped antenna?

ETA: I take it back. The Grays and Zeta Reticulans sent a new reconnaissance team who didn’t quite understand how to camouflage their ground vehicle.

At some point turnover could surpass a population’s ability to absorb it.

We can only hope

Joplin, at least, will accept CSS formatting to correct some of this. You can also brute force it with HTML <br> tags.

Do downvotes actually impact visibility on Lemmy?

He has been. No idea if he still is, seeing how X is in freefall.

It’s understandable that he doesn’t like lords and peasants, since his family’s fortune was built on slave labor. He would naturally much prefer a master-and-slave kind of thing.

And this shit is why I’ll never own a Tesla — or any other make that pulls this stunt.

That term makes my teeth hurt. There’s nothing “quitting” about simply performing the agreed work at the agreed wage.

Corporate attempts to phrase this as some kind of theft are disgusting.

If you’re encrypting locally, a free Nextcloud provider would probably do the trick. Use one in Europe for better privacy rights.

Friend, you need to practice your English more. I never said Hamas is right. It’s entirely possible for both sides to be wrong.

And now, since you seem incapable of taking a hint, you’re blocked.
