I think people just watch movies like Aladdin or whatever and think monkeys are cute and harmless. They're wrong. Monkeys are vicious little monsters. Stay the f away from monkeys.

I see so many comments from people saying they'll jump ship if Google adds this to Chrome. They'll move over to Firefox right away. But the thing most people don't know is one reason Google has such a broad reach is they make it so crazy easy to integrate their services for developers.

So, yes, users who dislike what they're doing should stop using Google products if possible. But, more importantly, developers or project managers, etc. should all resist the urge to utilize this kind of feature even if it's easy.

This'll seem unnecessarily mean but is the truth. Back when I was 18 and working as a cashier, a man and his son, both extremely overweight, went through my line. Idk what was wrong with them, but they both STANK so hard I could taste it. I went home and showered and could still smell it. I could smell it on my clothes so I washed them too. It was so horrible. I could smell it for hours. It was like the smell had been burned into the back of my nose.

To this day, if I smell something similar to that smell I remember that day and start to panic a little.

Someone threw a shoe at US president George W. Bush back in the day. That's pretty much it.

Agreed. I have actually spent a lot of time reading through their code and I find what they do amazing. It's a solid OS and is actually secure where the phone owner actually has control over their own phone.

federated users and local users are stored in the database in different tables. The federated users table doesn't have emails saved in it.

I use ad blockers. I do feel for people who are trying to make a living producing content, I really do.

BUT I really, really, am against letting the big tech companies that serve the ads make the majority of the money. It's beyond messed up how little content creators make compared to what companies like Google make with ads. Ads make some companies so much money they sink tons of money into finding more ways to creep on our personal lives.

Kind of related but not completely is how Apple and Google take cuts of money spent in apps and to pay for paid apps in their app stores. Like wtf? Sure, I can understand these tech companies need money to run their servers and all that, but jfc why do they need such a huge cut? App devs, artists (YouTube and Spotify, I'm looking at you), writers, whatever all create content people enjoy and tech companies just corner the market and force people who are usually not great with computers or tech, and they just fuck them. Content creators have no say.

I've got to say it was pretty shocking to be fresh off the boat, walking down the street, and some kid just bolts out of a store, drops her pants and starts pissing next to a tree.

Pixel running GrapheneOS. Happy to feel like I actually own my own phone now.

Using an apostrophe in plurals. Don't know why but this one drives me insane.

Also they're/there/their and you're/your

I also did the Ansible setup.

Are you subscribing to communities? I think searching just pulls something like 20 posts but nothing else. Everything starts getting pulled in when someone subscribes.

I also had some issues with pictures but the problems just kind of resolved themselves. Maybe try resetting the server and see what happens.
