It’s what the English call a bachelorette party apparently.

Ha they sent me the same message, and while I was not booted as a mod, I led the protest effort in a few subs that I modded in and helped out over in Save3rdPartyApps. I didn’t delete my account, just went silent after resigning when other mods got cold feet as soon as it started to get real.

I fucking hate that piece of shit Trump, but even his arrest records in Georgia put him at 6’2”, which is by no means short. There are so many truths you could use to belittle that man, but his physical height is not one of them.

The issue has nothing to do with sex work. Trump wasn’t being prosecuted for buying sex. He was indicted for using political donations to bribe someone, and you think that should somehow be legal? Just stop with this ridiculous exercise in whataboutism. Your head is way too far up your ass to make any sense.

Sure, criticize the woman for charging people for sex rather than the absolute chump who paid a quarter of a million dollars to hide the fact that he got his pee-pee sucked. That sure sounds like the type of smooth brain deflection a trump supporter would try, but the rest of us ain’t stupid or bigoted enough to fall for it.

But that’s a huge downside to most people.

I vote for Super Switch

It’s so pathetic to me that Trump named one of his sons after his alter ego.

It happens to me more and more these days as well.

I think your memory might be failing on this, because we’re about the same age and autosave wasn’t really a common feature in the 90s. MacOS didn’t introduce autosave until OSX Lion in 2010, and Microsoft’s auto-recover (which was their only feature even close to autosave until office365) wasn’t introduced until the 2000s and didn’t work properly until 2007.

That was probably because of the density of the cheese. I had the same thing happen to me with a bag of gnocchi once. They really thought it was something illicit because they had a big armed security guy on either side of me while they had me open it, and they looked really disappointed to find out what it really was.

Because security is more concerned with finding weapons and drugs. Customs/Borders Enforcement is the group tasked with finding prohibited plants and animals, and they don’t usually start looking for those things until you get to the destination country.

 

And they were comically bad:

Beyond the rim of the star-light
My love Is wand'ring in star-flight
I know he'll find in star-clustered reaches
Love, strange love a star woman teaches.
I know his journey ends never
His star trek will go on forever.
But tell him while he wanders his starry sea
Remember, remember me.

 

On every lemmy app/instance I’ve checked, it seems that the post and comment scores on users’ profiles have been replaced by post and comment counts.

I often look at scores to quickly check a person’s credibility/involvement, and the count is much less helpful than the score in that regard. I could see this data maybe being removed because it was too server intensive to calculate, but maybe there’s some other reason.

I’ve searched and can’t seem to find any explanation for this change in release notes, but maybe I’m just not searching correctly. Does anyone know why this change was made?

 

For some reason, Mlem won’t let me comment and gives me an error each time I try.

I am signed on with my Lemmy.world username without issue and am posting this post from that account using Mlem, but I cannot comment for some reason while I have no problems commenting from other apps.

Is anyone else having this issue? Is there any other info I can provide to help track this issue?
