Seconded. Have read it 4 times now.

Likely owns a vending machine business. They're easier to return than a handful of quarters if someone uses a 5 dollar bill to buy something for a buck and change.

Not sure what you mean about sending one of these posts...

Thanks for responding, all the same!

What client are you using?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Is that a function of Lemmy, or just federated links, I wonder.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Exactly. Sometimes I can get it to load if I try opening it it a few times... But not that often.

Huh. Are you using Connect, or something else?

I've not yet met a device whose Bluetooth name i couldn't change. Just Google, "How do I change the Bluetooth name on "x device"?", and substitute, "x device", with the manufacturer, make, and model of the device whose Bluetooth name you want to change. I believe in you.

Dead Cells. I can just... Zone out and go. It's really cathartic, and if I do particularly bad during a run, I just... Die and start over. You don't lose anything you've gained, (unless you pick something up in a biome and don't make it to the exit), and each run is practically a new game that requires nothing to learn it. It's my Zen game.

First...I love this discussion. Thank you for it. It's what made me love Reddit in the early years, and why I'm so enamored with Lemmy. Secondly...You make an excellent point; one I can't refute. I don't know how we move towards a solution without having a way to succinctly describe an ideologic structure. I just hate how partisan the world becomes, and how much the media plays off of it to help the fuckers in charge sell ads, or maintain power, wherever you live and whatever ism you subscribe to. Maybe all I'm doing is just missing the point and muddying the waters...

You are 100% correct in your assertion, my anti Mario sex toy friend, and I love your passion. I worry that the minute you call someone's intelligence into question, they'll take a defensive posture and stop thinking critically. Critical thinking is what we need more than anything else in this world right now. That's what's in short supply. It's why the news is constantly being flooded with new things, and why there are so few media outlets that don't have a slant. If I can get you outraged at team blue, or team red, or team US, or team THEM, your anger overrides your reason and you stop thinking about who benefits from the distraction provided by us arguing over whatever this new bullshit thing is we're arguing over. Hopefully that last statement makes sense.
