Hey thanks.

Can you ban me too?

Things will not calm down, Daniel Jackson. They will, in fact, calm up.

As I understand, usually without references they will want to verify you in some way. Checking employment, for example.

Then you would need sex worker A who accepted you as a client via some kind of verification to also be willing to refer you to sex worker B.

In places where it’s illegal there are still independent & professional escorts, but they want references or some kind of assurance that you’re not LEO or someone crazy who’s going to hurt them.

When learning another language, it’s really normal for your comprehension to be way better than your production. Input > output. Just keep talking to people and consuming English media and it will come to you. The more you increase your input, the more fluently and naturally you’ll speak – it won’t sound like you’re speaking from a textbook.

Like you I also struggle with vocab though. What I like to do for focused study is watch a show or some piece of media and pick out some words I want to learn in context and make flashcards from them.

I would probably be fine with TSA as a jobs program, except I really don’t like being yelled at by power tripping agents just for taking my laptop out, or for leaving it in my bag. Because no airport is the same and they all seem to make things up when it comes to policy. To be fair most agents are pretty chill, but some out there definitely enjoy the power trip.

Damn I think this might somehow be worse than the Iowa county who had physical pen testers arrested: https://krebsonsecurity.com/2020/01/iowa-prosecutors-drop-charges-against-men-hired-to-test-their-security/

They also sell rubber horse stall mats which are way cheaper to buy than actual flooring if you’re building a home gym. There are other places to get horse stall mats though.

Remember that the burden is on them to show it. But the reality is that when they bring up irrelevant shit like that and try to say that your issue isn’t covered under warranty, it will be on you to “remind” them of that burden, and tell them that what they are trying to do is absolutely fucking illegal under Magnusson-Moss.

I loved The Longest Journey series. Beautiful games. Not without flaws, but beautiful and thoughtfully written.

I mean Lemmy is also a bit of a cesspool at times, but it’s home now at least.

Extension library for Tachiyomi forks. No idea if it works with Aniyomi.

At least they didn’t hit keiyoushi.

LineageOS has been doing this for a year or so already.

I wonder if it has to do with reusing the transmission lines from the coal plant.

Do you remember the name of the book?

Arch + i3wm on my work laptop and I love it. Super functional.

I got a refresh/new laptop and they put Ubuntu on it. Really miss Arch’s repos & package manager. Probably will switch it at some point.

Just going to address your first paragraph: I sincerely doubt that the devs are receiving money from a fascist government. I simply don’t think Lemmy is big enough yet to be on the radar of e.g., the Chinese government. Yes, maybe there are some Wumaos on here. My understanding is they get better training and autonomy these days, so it’s certainly possible. But most of the comments look more homegrown. I just doubt the Chinese government (or any similar government) would care to the point of trying to pay off devs, and it’s not their MO anyways.
