I like the idea of having a regulated, living, backwards compatible standard. Which seems to be what USB-C is now, for phones. The EU has soon to be active regulation that will make it a requirement for many things. Yet, it’s not a single, set in stone standard, but one that’s constantly being expanded (eg, version 3.2 and PD).
Of course, the regulation has to also be living. Eg, at some point, maybe there’ll be a strong enough reason to allow another standard (by no means do I think USB-C will always make sense). And the regulation has to very carefully choose the standard.
That way we get the benefits of standardization (from actually everyone using the same format), but we aren’t unreasonably crippling ourselves to do it.
Don’t forget Hasbro trying to pull a retroactive licensing for all D&D stuff. Oh, and sending the Pikertons to harass a person that got set of cards before release by accident
I went to a convenience store where I grabbed a can of soda, the guy passed me a Jamaican patty from behind the counter, and they wanted a tip. Of course 20% was the lowest suggested option, obviously I didn’t tip
Yeah I don’t have to pretend that the actions that helped elect Trump are understandable. They’re selfish and/or moronic actions that fuck everyone over

Like so. Like I said, I’m voting for Biden. But that won’t stop you from pontificating. Just keep going like lecturing me will change other people’s minds. Thank you for the additional confirmation that lemmy’s centrists are every bit the same as they are on reddit.
Forgive all us sinners who don’t like bad ideas spreading, we definitely have no reason
I’m voting for Biden. (You’ll continue to ignore this and keep scolding.) I also know that the party is losing voters it needs because it keeps taking them for granted.
This is a problem. “Shut up and be happy” won’t solve it.
When your next condescending self-righteous reply is done, the problem I described will remain.
I can’t force you to understand that other people have different standards for who they will vote for than yours. That’s not a shitty idea. That’s recognizing the political reality as it exists. Democrats are gonna need the votes of these people.
As a recent example, I can imagine someone who came here as a refugee being hesitant to vote for someone who funds bombing refugee camps. I’m sure you’ll yell at me for having enough empathy to understand that.
There are certainly people out there who will never understand that you can only maintain a diverse coalition through solidarity. By an astounding coincidence, they all seem to think that solidarity is something the party can demand from its constituents but can disregard in the other direction without consequence.
In any event, you don’t understand because you’re not here to understand. You’re here to browbeat. You’re doing a fantastic job of acting exactly like this is reddit.
You’ve adequately demonstrated what happens when someone deviates from centrist orthodoxy on lemmy. I thank you for your participation and will now withdraw mine.
Your repeated mention of centrism is bizarre, as is how monumentally condescending you are being while asserting you’re the victim of such.
I am not a centrist, that’s what apparently you want to be. Centrism is just giving a name to choosing ignorance and pretending it makes you a super advanced genius
Depends. Nicer to men? Probably. Nicer to women? Hell. No.
Can’t count how many times I’ve seen people call out things like body shaming of men, but do the same thing to women and suddenly it’s a “natural expression of human sexuality.”
I suppose it’s just the end result of any community dominated by an extreme majority of men, but it sure as hell doesn’t feel good and has made me heavily consider deleting my account and just finally giving up on social media entirely.
Because for 99.99% of all situations, you’d already know what year and month it is, so the most readily available piece of information should be the day.
If you already know the year and month why write it. ISO or month day are the two most reasonable. You need to zoom in not give yourself a list of options and then randomly pick one later.
Because in short, it’s alphabetical. It will always be in order by year, then month, then day. Literally like how a clock goes HH:MM:SS it’s the same thing as YY:MM:DD the right side ticks the fastest. It’s in order by hour (year) then minute (month) then second (day). SAME SAME WHY NOT
My ex is an actress. It never bothered me really. She saw it as part of the job and I do too. I’m the one she’s looking for in the audience and taking her home at the end of the show lol.
My ex was an opera singer, same thing. I was in one of her shows (in the chorus) and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel. Seeing it, it’s the least romantic thing ever. The singers are sweaty and nasty and it’s not really pleasant. It might have helped that I knew the guy well enough too.
Gotta spread the love around to different communities, and parcel it out. Make ten memes and post two a day, meanwhile banking up more. If you have the talent for making memes, before long you’ll have so many stored up that you can just post them at will, either over time or downthread as a reaction to something else and let someone else repost them.
