  • I honestly sort of just sit on the toilet like this normally (not on a public toilet). It's comfortable for me to sort of lean all the way forward and hug my legs while I'm sitting there.

    I think that's fair, and I appreciate your considerateness 😊

  • If you want to mention him, I won’t try to stop you (not that I could if I wanted to). […]

    Ha, nah it's okay. I think it'd be silly for me to ping him further down in the thread after the fact. I was mostly voicing my unsolicited opinion 😆

  • I've honestly never quite realized up until now how utterly ridiculous it is that people (especially in the US) regularly demand that their food be chauffeured to them.

  • Unfortunately, I still don't follow what your point is.

    Personally, I think it's okay to ping him. I would think it'd be neat to see where and what conversations are occurring.

    Wouldn't some kind of van be more practical? Perhaps they wanted both a van and a pickup truck, but they didn't want/couldn't afford 2 separate cars, so they just melded the two together?

  • It’s not a phobia […]

    For the sake of argument, Merriam-Webster defines the "phobia" suffix as:

    intolerance or aversion for [1]

    as well as

    exaggerated fear of [1]

    That being said, one can define a words however they wish — imo, all that matters is that those engaged in a conversation together all use the same definitions. If you would like to reserve the "phobia" suffix to represent only "exaggerated fear of", what would you propose in its stead to represent "intolerance or aversion for"?

    A change regarding Peertube federation with Lemmy certainly does appear to be coming in Lemmy 1.0 [1], but it's currently unknown to me if it does actually fix the issue.

      1. #5509 fixes this, it will be released as part of Lemmy 1.0

        1. This is referring to code that was pushed to the repository that allegedly fixes the issue with Peertube federation.

  • […] I think their saing the snake in the photo beleaves that they will get to be the boot someday

    If that's the case, the exact meaning of that statement isn't exactly clear to me. Does "the snake in the photo" refer to people who support liberty in general? Does it refer only to people who stand beside the Gadsden flag? Does it refer to people who misappropriate the Gadsden flag?

  • I can't wait until Lemmy's Peertube integration is released [1]. Then, iiuc, this comment section should be able to happen directly on The Linux Experiment's videos within Lemmy.

  • How is this intended to fit in with existing Wii emulators [1]? Is it essentially just trying to offer a more convenient mobile option?
