No ID also?

Probably something like a Scandinavian country with a good social safety net. It might be tough to get citizenship, but at least I might have a chance to survive that long.

But in negative energy, which isn't known to exist independently. (You can't take the Casimir effect out from between the plates, etc.)

Wow, I'm famous enough to have made the list. Nice!

I kinda wonder if I wasn't on the list, but now I am because of my previous comment on this post.

Then run an instance, Beehaw style.

Any idea what the notes say?

I'm quite proud that I correctly guessed both links before opening either.

Here.

Numbers are indeed very high, but none of them reach 50%. And you're right that general unhappiness while remaining married is hard to measure, but even that "gray divorce" rate (when the kids are not as big a factor) isn't so high, which I think would be an indication.

Also, that's only marriage. Lots of people are in stable LTRs (usually not their first, but that doesn't mean much if they are in one now.)

I feel like there is a similar but opposite bias to survivorship in the reporting of relationships in general: you only hear about the bad ones.

My friends are all freaks and geeks, much like myself, but even in our group those that are in relationships at all have been in them long term and are at least seemingly happy with them. This seems like the usual case in the general population too - bad cases become gossip (or news if the people are famous), but most of the stable cases don't make a big deal about it.

Sure, but I was referring to the "people" (user accounts) that literally are not people (human) because they are software instead.

That log entry was very obviously a pun on the already existing term "bug" for glitches.

It can easily go the other way. I had a contract during which I lost a relationship right after losing my dad. Failed to deal with it, and soon after lost the contract too.

People are people.

A lower percentage of them are people on Reddit and unfortunately that percentage is dropping here also. (We have bots posting weird questions to the question communities for example)

 

Here's a mild introduction to their style. (Also just one of my favorites)

 

The links inside the linked post are relative links, such as xkcd which is a link to /c/xkcd@lemmy.world

Boost does not open them when tapped, flashing an error instead.

There are unfortunately some subreddits which are still the best place to find timely info about certain topics - for example video game subs run by the developers of the game. Lemmit is a way to subscribe to those while not giving Reddit any more "engagement" or ad views.

The bot that runs Lemmit only posts on its own instance, so users like me only see it when we subscribe explicitly (or the All view I guess, but that's a mixed bag already. Edit: and each user could choose to ban it if they want)
