How about a “convenience fee” for making an online payment. Why should I pay a fee to make the transaction more convenient for the company who no longer has to pay an employee to take the payment in person?

I wish.

Ban yourself and then you don’t have to worry about it.

I have hypertrophy of the turbinate in the right nostril. It’s blocked basically all the time. I was prescribed fluticasone and what’s basically a salt water rinse. Neither really does much. I also have GERD, so I ordered an under-mattress bed wedge to see if the elevation can solve both problems at the same time.

I love riding my bike on the weekends and if my commute wasn’t 1.5 hours each way, I’d go to the gym pretty often.

Well, don’t use Facebook to talk about doing things that are illegal. Why do people not use common sense?

That’s a good question, but I’m not sure I’d wanna do that.

“…but none of me…”

How many of you are there?

If not for gaming, I would run Linux. Linux on gaming just isn’t on par yet.

A person you fired can’t be poached.

As much as I dislike Meta, the idea that you’d have to pay to present a link to a news article is idiocy. Let the news sites see how their traffic goes without those links.

Telegram chats aren’t e2ee by default. You’re essentially putting your chats on a server owned by a rich Russian person as a hobby.

I wonder if that was intentional on the instance owner’s part?

Good. Serves 'em right.

That’s an exercise in futility. If Lemmy takes off like Mastodon/Pleroma/Misskey/etc then you would spend your time trying to create accounts on hundreds of Lemmys, some of which will be private or invite only meaning you can’t. Plus, anyone on Mastodon etc. can comment on Lemmy posts. It’s not a task you can complete.

There are fewer ultra rich that need killing though, so it should be easier and quicker this time around, right?

should we just quit using these sites or what?

Yes.

check out a Firefox extension called SponsorBlock. It’s updated by users but is pretty current and can be set to skip past self promotion and in video advertising.

I’m sure there’s a way to get around it, and if there isn’t, then I just won’t be using YouTube anymore. I survived before it existed. I’m getting tired of these companies’ bullshit.
