  • That advice definitely goes two ways.

  • Ah, so we can think the Bible is bad, we just can't say anything about it because that would be edgy. Gotcha.

  • Gonna need something a little more solid than your feelsies.

  • It’s a general rule, there are exceptions. I’d think it would be obvious why a VPN is needed for some even if you don’t need it.

  • Considering the political and social leanings of the typical Lemmy user, I think you’re going to be repeatedly disappointed looking for people who think the Bible is a good thing. In any modern and halfway decent society, yes, Bible is bad. Recognizing that something is shit isn’t an ability restricted to children.

  • What, you came to Lemmy expecting church services?

  • Think that would fall pretty solidly under sexism - women are just property according to The Good Book.

  • I mean, if I want to spend my money on bullshit mumbo jumbo, that’s my prerogative. It’s not a payment processor’s responsibility to police what dumb shit I choose to believe in.

  • I'm totally with you on that. Most of the daily headlines are just distractions from the child-raping dictator that should be front and center. And by all means I hate the bastard as much as the next sane person. If he were on fire, the only liquid I'd pour on him would be an accelerant. I also think it's possible that in the midst of all this bullshit, occasionally stuff will happen that's still just part of the everyday red-tape of working for the government. The best I can tell from this article is that the committee made it a point to state they don't think AOC acted maliciously here - just some staffer's fuck-up - and AOC doesn't appear to even be disputing it.

    So, in this particular instance, just kinda seems like "Trump rapes children" was OP's attempt at a redirect when someone asked if they even read the article that they're sharing - a question which they never did answer; given the reading habits of most people I've interacted with on Lemmy, it's certainly not an unfair question to ask.

    "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar."

  • What exactly does that have to do with the subject at hand?

    Fuck me for pointing out the obvious total non-sequitur. Hive mind in action. We get a fresh influx of Redditors or something?

  • Oh, wow. I’m so shocked I could power a dim bulb for about two seconds.

  • This is why I just refer to them as a death cult.

  • Wasn’t trying to argue any points. Just commenting on the shitiness of the situation.

  • If this is a US restaurant, those prices still don’t include tax.

  • I run uBlock Origin for the browsers, and Pi-Hole for the network. Plus a wireguard VPN server that my phone connects to when I’m not on the home wifi for ad-blocking on the go.

  • These multiple rounds of interviews to get a job are fucking ridiculous. They chose the pope in two fucking days, you do not need a week’s worth of interviews to know if I’m worth giving a paycheck.

  • The most recent article in the post is about 4 years old. I definitely recall learning this a while ago.

  • A lot of hotels will require a card to put on file at check-in. The paper you get after your stay is typically an invoice, not a bill to be paid. They tell you how much they charged you, it's up to you to dispute if you disagree with something.

  • It would still work with "through," though?
