  • "Shopkeeper" would be a pretty damn good job title too compared to retail.

  • They're right though, soccer is boring

  • links to 11 year old thread for tangentially related Windows Vista problem, locks current thread

  • I just don't see that.

  • If somebody doesn't have an idea of what they're talking about (allegedly) then it would be far more productive to explain it than to keep arguing about it without actually solving anything.

  • Plenty of developers also use GitHub for software distribution for end users, so that's where the problems lie. I'm not saying GitHub should change their UI to match something the site wasn't made for, but it's still an issue for people who choose to use it that way.

  • Again, take a break. Enjoy the block list

  • You've literally accused everybody who disagrees with you of either trolling or lying. I think you need a break from the Internet.

  • Today I learned @lemmy.ml

    TIL Sweden was one of the few countries to grant asylum to Vietnam War resisters and deserters. Over 1,000 people were granted asylum status between 1968 and 1973, two thirds of which deserted the war

  • Similar for looking up how to play Crusader Kings.

  • Today I learned @lemmy.ml

    TIL the word "stadium" derives from the Ancient Greek word "stadion" which meant exactly 600 human feet. Because the length of a human foot varies, this means it is between about 150 and 210 meters.

  • I'm not stupid. You're referencing ostriches "burying their head in the sand," typically used to mean somebody is willfully ignoring things. If you seriously think that's what I'm trying to get across after all I've written about it, then I just cannot help you understand.

  • I want people to be nice, which is the foundational rule of the instance.

    I simply don't think that this particular topic is helping people do that

    Anybody else here dislike how beehaw is becoming a bit of a hub for the israel-palestine talk?

    I totally forgot how terrible a non-ad-free YouTube experience is

    TIL that likely the very first person to ever survive rabies via inoculation was a 9 year old boy named Joseph Meister, who was infected in 1885 and inoculated by Louis Pasteur.

  • I'd be fine with not hosting images entirely. I don't think people come to beehaw primarily to look at pictures

    has beehaw gotten more argumentative as of late?

  • For high school: your body will really want to go to sleep at 2 am every morning, but don't. Go to bed at a regular time. You might not like it at night, but in the morning your body will love you.

    For college: Don't cheat. It might be super tempting, but if you're caught even once, the consequences are so much worse than in high school. Plus you're setting yourself up for failure in the future. Do you really wanna be the guy who cheated their way through college only to end up with functionally zero experience in a real-world scenario where you have to apply what the job thought you learned? Hell, most jobs will probably see right through you and deny you on the spot.

  • That’s it, you’re done. Don’t keep making noise in the community, on Discord, Twitter, or wherever.
