Haha awesome pic!! :D

As a Mint user, I can say that my socks are usually between E and D. As such, I can firmly say this graph is incorrect!

Anyway, any Nix users in the chat? Just asking.

…Hobbiest makes you sound like you’re the most hobby of them all! THE HOBBIEST! Oh yeah, I love guns, it’s a hobby of mine… You might even say it’s the hobbiest of all. I’m the gun hobbiest.

Sad

Thanks for the rec!!! Photo taken on a bus, very appropriate.

My thoughts exactly.

Pointing to the bags beneath her eyes, Takaichi told MPs that she survives on minimal sleep – a habit she shares with her political hero Margaret Thatcher – after being asked how she would tackle Japan’s notoriously long working hours.

:D I’m glad!!! Enjoy!

Really bad score, wow. Has anyone here watched this? Thoughts?

Yeah, the transition process is pretty much seamless, if you aren’t a mod.

I think Blaze actually posts from PieFed now? Not sure…

I considered PieFed, but ended up sticking with Lemmy. I think Lemmy feels less complicated, there’s just less features, which I prefer. No hate for PieFed, of course, I think it’s awesome!

db0 has been great! I couldn’t bring my communities with me, but it’s fine… I didn’t really have much anyway.

I do miss lemm.ee, because their very generalist maxims really resonated with me. I really don’t think there’s a true spiritual substitute.

Trippy

It’s fundamentally about understanding and accepting other people. There are plenty of heartwarming and cute moments!

While there are scary and uncomfortable things that happen, the manga highlights the growth of the characters more than anything else. It’s beautiful.

As someone that also struggles with manga that are just non-stop pain, I can assure you That’s My Atypical Girl will reward your readership.

You don’t know who Michael Burry is? He got way famous because of the movie “The Big Short”.

I hope you like it :D

not on things that are proven facts.

I think this is much, much harder to pin down than you seem to be implying.

It isn’t particularly hard to find research that, at least partially, seems to corroborate or lend credence to some of the more asinine beliefs ripping US public health to shreds. It’s also not particularly hard to find people with degrees or certificates, people in positions of authority, that spout that stuff. Tylenol? Yeah. If people take this law to mean that “if you see the Qualified Expert^TM badge on a video, you can trust the information,” then I fear misinformation might have a new weapon.

What I mean to say is that, at the end of the day, it seems like it’ll be up to the state authorities to decide (1) who counts as a qualified expert, and (2) what subjects require qualifications to be discussed, and I do think that both are dangerous premises.

I’m not certain it’s a bad idea though, I really can’t say which side I land on, for now.

I think it depends on how you define “influencer”.

It seems to me that it’s basically anyone that posts content. I read both the linked article and the referenced CNBC article, and there doesn’t seem to be any clarification on the issue…

Is it a nice idea?

Of course, I see the good side, too. However, besides the possible negatives you’ve already mentioned, I feel like this measure begs the question: Should everyday people be allowed to sway public opinion?

I think the answer is, unequivocally, YES! I think it is wrong to say that you need a degree to comment on a topic or that you need a degree to say what you think, publicly, about a topic.

I very much appreciate stricter regulation on misinformation, but this is concerning.

I suppose it will depend on how and how much they enforce this.

That horse is absolutely clueless regarding the latest technological developments… How lucky

I have a very negative aura about myself.
