If it’s faster to get an AI to write your commit messages than to write them yourself, your commit messages are too long. They should be one sentence.

If people took existential threats seriously, we should immediately devote all our resources into escaping the simulation to prevent it from being turned off. But yeah… we’d ignore it and go back to TikTok

Your terminology doesn’t make it clearer. Those are different communities, with different members, moderators, rules, and content. They just happen to share the name “asklemmy”, have a similar topic, and sometimes overlapping content.

True, but singular they is undeniably clunky. Unfortunately it’s the best we have, so we will have to get used to it. Opposition to the natural evolution of language has never worked.

We aren’t saying that they should be driving, quite the opposite. We’re saying that it’s completely fucked that in some places you have to drive to participate in society, precisely because many people shouldn’t. There needs to be alternatives to driving so that law enforcement can remove anyone’s license without effectively placing them in house arrest.

Since I don’t know how well their manipulation works

I do. It works really fucking well. $900 billion per year well.

It gets better. Their Instagram is canadapetcareusa

It doesn’t have a physical address. Very suspicious.

47°C! WTF?! Why do people live there?

I prefer reddit-esqe to twitter-esqe too, but I also think fediverse suits reddit-esqe better. The only reason I used Twitter was content from people I was interested in, and most of them aren’t on Mastodon. Here, I don’t care about any individuals, so Lemmy being fairly small is fine.

Other thing is also bad is not a good argument. You can reduce the amount of spying if you want to.

But they said unknown threat. Everyone knows that TikTok is a tool for CCP spying and propaganda, but somehow most of us don’t care.

Right pocket because I use my right hand.

I don’t believe there’s any instance with an algorithm, so no. In the future someone might launch an instance with an algorithm like that.

The blue and green colours are for the messages you send, not receive.

Well she is if she pays for SMS. Hardly anyone does anymore, but who knows, maybe she hasn’t updated her mobile deal in 20 years.

The US has terrible land management in general. You build these huge sprawling cities made of low density suburbs, both wasting productive farmland in the east and isolated in the middle of the desert in the west. It’s all completely nuts.
