I get trying not to pick a fight, but your gf might also feel like you're being dismissive, which likely sucks for her.
Sometimes, even if you can't do anything about it, it's nice having someone that acknowledges you.
IT'S OVER 9000!
I was half-expecting these to start blasting protesters with their water cannons, I'm pleasantly ~~surprised~~ reminded that firefighters are good people.
Reading the comments over there, that makes sense actually.
This one in particular sums it up pretty well:
Firefighters will destroy capital to save a life, police will take a life to preserve capital.
Yes, absolutely. Fuck the stuff you get at stores' checkout.
I do mean something from a bank or union, it's just instead of having a limit you can borrow from, you can prepay and do whatever transaction after.
Works fine for online places that only take credit.
You can usually get them even with shitty credit, because they're not fronting you the money.
I do believe it is still 5MB.
43 MB is definitely over the upload limit.
You can still probably get a prepaid credit card...
You just have to pay it upfront before doing the transaction.
I use this one:

It can usually get the status of most courriers unless they're actively hostile against API/scraping.

I know it's not exactly military, but I remember the Flashpoint series as being pretty good back in the day.
It's more SWAT than military though.
Might be something up your alley, or not.
Federated here ✌️
Just got my 9 year sticker in the mail too.
I don't even use it as much these days, but it helped me a lot when I was starting out, and I still use it for the webcam.
Aye, most of that activity was generated through user error on my end.
Jet is legit, but got caught by the bot or something and then the manual unban didn't work right.. so I site-banned them again (from sjw) and unbanned them, to try to make it federate, it was a bit of a mess.

Either way, totally my fault.
Seems the content in the screenshot was from !networking@sh.itjust.works.
They were indeed still banned from that community, but shouldn't have been, I've unbanned them manually.
I'll check the other communities too.
