  • “I didn’t see hell be unleashed on Israel. We didn’t see a single bomb fall on our heads, on our neighborhoods, on our homes. We didn’t see anything happen here like has happened to Gaza now for months and months and months. We didn’t see children and toddlers being blown to pieces. We didn’t hear about these horror stories … but this is a lie that we’re constantly told over and over and over again, that we have to hate these people in the Middle East, that we have to hate these foreign countries.”

    This timeline is broken if she is saying this.

  • Love to see it!

    I've noticed the speed icons can fluctuate rapidly from one page reload to another, could that be smoothed out to an 'average' each daily cron or something?

    And I think displaying user count or some sort of activity indicator could help make better informed choices.

  • Piefed's onboarding is being reworked to add a custom direct message to new joiners to help them settle in, with a link to a "newcomers" community.Would people here like to help with that community?

  • Oh well that's piqued my interest greatly as I've been looking into making plugins lately. I might fork this.

    Having a quick look, is the "onboard_user" hook related to what I was asking about the preset block for new accounts?

  • I work in ECE in Australia, and from this

    The next day, in a second email the management committee proposed to charge $2,200 for a scrapbook of artwork produced by their children and photographs of them to help pay off the debt.

    They 100% mean printing out on the shitty work printer and pasting photos they took on their iPad alongside some pages of the "child's" (it was probably 95% the educator making it) artwork in one of those $3 black 48 paged A3 scrapbooks from OfficeWorks.
