I remember when she was popular learning that that she was like 10 years younger than me, so 35-ish.

It’s an older meme sir, but it checks out.

Even though I appreciate this post, I don’t think I will comment.

Honestly that’s probably the best sort of solution. A group that has some minimum standards of moderation and maintenance/upgrade management plan and just evenly distribute the load as people arrive.

Then as a second phase make it easy to transfer, that way at the point the user gets comfortable they can easily swap to a better* “home” for those that care, for those that don’t, make the server choice be virtually invisible.

As long as the fediverse has a barrier to entry for most people of mandating choosing a server first, it will never become the mainstream choice.

I love SwiftOnSecurity.

Why did you censor Forks?

Because that’s how she’s told people she prefers to be called, that’s how she still brands her social media.

People respecting somebody else’s choice for how to refer to them is literally the example that is the worst for your argument.

Or below average…

This wiki page, not itself as an original source but as a collection of original papers in the references for you to peruse at your leisure is a great starting point. But your question is a bit like the “Did you know Aristotle never said ‘Thank You’? Mostly because he didn’t speak English.” Joke. You are expecting modern accommodations and language in texts from a different era that would have used unfamiliar forms or language like ancient Egypt that had a 3rd gender “sekhet”.

What’s up with people changing their names after marriage or adoption too‽

Why does everyone refer to her as Marie Curie instead of Maria Skłodowska? It’s just soo unnecessarily complicated to have to use a different name than the one assigned at birth.

We can remember it for you wholesale.

I knew I was going to get every downvote I got. He’s got an Elon Musk-like cult of personality in some tech spheres and even implying that he’s not 100% right will get dogpiled by white knights.

I had the same experience as you and there were at least a couple opportunities where I had close acquaintances that actually knew more about topics that were more outside of his wheelhouse who confirmed that he was just regurgitating things that were common misconceptions or “close, but not quite”-type inaccuracies but doing it as though he possessed absolute authority. I’ve even seen others try to correct him on those in the past when they knew more and his responses were not the way one responds when you’re actually interested in fact over the art of the diatribe.

I don’t have anything real negative against him and he’s definitely done quite a few things that end result in a positive improvement, but I’m also thinking he’d probably benefit from a bit more humility.

He always strikes me as the kind of person that confuses his moderately deep knowledge of a limited topic set with the type of thinking that makes him an over-confident expert on a much larger variety of topics. Like when economists start making declarations about climate change science.

Has anyone investigated the consequences of all the sunlight that’s leaked into the environment because of this disaster? What sort of clean up are we looking at and how long will it take?

I imagine it depends upon your phone and it’s support for USB drives, but I can use my kobo Libra and Clara directly connected to my iPad as a drive and drop the epubs and PDFs on it and have it recognize them.

There’s also a website that has released its code (so you can run your own) where I can push things through it via the Internet similar to send to Kindle.

There’s a whole bunch of other reasons that I think the Kobo has the current best eInk device having to do with its interface, but those that are more personal preference related and not the subject of your question. But I’m happy to share if you’d like.

And to think, they stared with an app to identify if something was a hot dog or not.

I came to say the same thing. It was so good.
