you could have a winning personality - make women laugh (with you, not at you)… alternately, you could obtain a lot of muscles, that’s all some women need. or move somewhere where men are in short supply - or where you’d be seen as exotic… and it’d be cheaper than leg lengthening surgery.

less a question and more of an opinion. is there an opinion community? maybe post there instead

yeah I see what you mean. you’d have to replace all 12 hour clocks world-wide though - and then accept that it would take generations for people to adapt. it’d probably never going to happen.

it seems like one of the key defining principals of the fediverse is platform evolution - mastodon, bluesky, and lemmy are just going to be footnotes in history.

in regards to that definition then: yeah, I’d say people are, on the whole, more enlightened than they were a century ago. the scientific method is more thoroughly accepted/baked in at a societal level, and the mass adoption of digital communication facilitates a greater sense of community… though the resulting communities are often at odds with each other.

30% vinegar is pretty amazing stuff, I use it on my toilet every 6 months or so. really eats away those organic stains. used it for cleaning metal a few times too, it’s a really solid purchase.

no idea about the evaporation.

eh… do you really want to be scheduled to start work at 8am when 8am is mid-afternoon? me neither.

anime/manga high school of the dead zombies is my favorite example

define enlightened using your own words not via a google search

yes - but if there’s no enforcement then laws are rather meaningless.

in the US, we value independence - and living with your parents after you’re 18 is the polar opposite, or so society would lead you to believe.

ah. Ms. Pacman then

marry, or just commit carnal acts with?

are they all in the same box or in different boxes?

so what? the media is stored/hosted elsewhere. the domains are just an access method. this is just as effective as nailing the front door shut and ignoring the windows/back door.

oh no!

anyway…

not that open - I tried to run rm -rf in the terminal and it did nothing.

Hash. born on 4/20. growing up we used to go here to roast bowls

bunches of refurbished t-series thinkpads out there - t480, t430, etc. apparently the 490 is one to avoid. I got a t470 some months back for $150 - put mint on it and have been very happy with the performance.

lol good luck tracking down someone who releases software into the wild.
