Buddy, billionaires don't care about whether you shame them.

But they do care about the prestige of looking charitable.

It makes far more sense to play along and let them feel like heroes if it means the next tragedy gets $100k.

Consider this: donation shaming contributes to a cost/benefit analysis.

Consider that Taylor Swift could donate $100k for every single tragedy that occurs this year and be no worse off.

But that would get her more bad press than it's worth. People would say "why does this tragedy get $100k when its obviously far worse" or "The amount of people affected are more than this other tragedy, why are you racist?" Etc.

So, they stay quiet, and even then people get shamed for not using their platform to speak up.

If you actually give a shit about seeing the most amount of money going to help people, you should realise the path forward is to lower the bar to access, and make donation as beneficial as possible to the people donating.

Call it what you want, but $100k is $100k.

For the people who are actually affected, any donation is appreciated.

In any case, do you intend to use shame to force higher donations?

Donation shaming is bad form.

The right move is to give them the credit and move on, because regardless of PR, it is a net positive.

Cats are notorious data hoarders. My cat made me buy a 4 bay enclosure today.

Pretty common experience, that I've even seen memes of people discovering they're ADHD from memes.

Note: not everyone has the exact same experiences, so nobody with ADHD will relate to every meme.

But there are patterns, and if youre being honest with yourself, its the memes relating to thought patterns and internal dialogue which will be the most telling.

Best way to tell without a professional:

Browse ADHD memes together.

If she relates to the memes far more frequently than you, she might have ADHD.

If you both relate to the memes in equal frequency, I've got some bad news.

Sidenote:

People with ADHD tend to be friends with people with ADHD

Shit's fakked

 

Obviously we don't eat products which are the result of non-human animal exploitation, but are you willing to:

  • Buy "vegan" products made using the same manufacturing equipment? (Conveyer belts for example, resulting in near certain contamination).
  • Buy vegan products made by the same company which produces non-vegan products? (Buying fries from McDonalds, resulting in more capital for McD's exploitation).
  • Buy vegan products from non-vegan grocery stores? (Pretty hard to avoid for most people, especially those on low income).

Curious to know where everyone stands on this.

I remember at the time, lots of people being on the fence and didn't know what to believe.

Where do you land now, after all this time?

 

I fucking hate DST. It's like dog diarrhoea splashed over a fat girls tiddies.

I know a lot of people hate it, surely it's time for this moronic practice to end.

So who do I email about this? Is it my MP?

 

Also, why?

Banned shows:

  • Paw Patrol - Seems soulless, I haven't watched much, but there seems something very wrong about it. Intuitively, I feel like my kid shouldn't watch it (though, I can could be convinced I'm wrong, if I am)
  • Cocomelon - objectively soulless - don't try to convince me that this show is anything but toddler crack.

Approved:

  • Sesame Street
  • Bluey

Both of the above shows seem to me like they are made with care and have the best interests to teaching children good morals and language skills.

 

The city I live in, Port Macquarie, has awful cell phone reception basically everywhere (I'm on the Vodafone network).

Is this something I can bring up with the local council, or elected representative?

I can't believe I live in a city of 50,000 people and I'm unable to receive phone calls from my house.

 

Does HoYo ever repeat these kind of events, or is it unlikely that I'll ever get this lightcone?

 

I'm having trouble understanding all the benefits of BTRFS and how they'll apply to me.

Copy on Write and auto-compression seem like they will free up a bit of space.

What other practical benefits will I see from using BTRFS? Are there any noticeable performance benefits?

I use my computer to dual-boot. I don't need snapshots because I have a custom script for a fresh install. I use my PC for gaming and work. I've got an NVMe, two SSD's and one HDD.

Thanks in advance!

 
 

Place your tank on one side of your team, and your squishies opposite, to mitigate AoE damage

 

Right now we've got share, bookmark, upvote and down vote.

But I share and bookmark less than I block communities (curating my feed), and hide posts (so I can refresh without scrolling past the same stuff).

The latter two are in the extras menu. It would be great if I could swap these buttons.

Thanks for all your work! This is my favourite Lemmy app!
