This reads like someone telling me that the nazi bar is the only place to go because the nazi bar has people there all the time and the other bars are mostly empty.

Seems like a good strategy would be to not have every post and comment shown to you if your goal is to break your habit of spending too much time on your phone or PC.

I think it's good.

Quality over quantity is what I would prefer. I think LemmyNSFW is a potential determent for other instances.

Lemmy.world has no lock in on their "power". They have the most volunteer labor, money, and infrastructure. That's makes them stable, so people aren't worried about their data suddenly going offline (like kbin) and they don't worry about the service being flaky.

This was organized crime by a corrupt school official. This isn't petty crime. So I don't think this situation is one of those that "does nothing useful" to have severe consequences. Additionally, your dismissal of the circumstances around the crime seems odd. This person stole from the most vulnerable where restitution isn't possible because we don't have time machines and they stole an amount that restitution is beyond the means of the thief without further commiting theft or fraud.

Jail is the best option here. I think the sentencing could be lighter and the parole and probation system should be fixed, but there's not much better to be done in a scenario like this.

Also I think making kids starve constitues violence.

Probably independently owned and operated, non-franchised restaurants. Fast food franchisees generally aren't around the day to day operations and are contractually obligated to buy supplies from the franchise. But it's not impossible that one is dumb enough or desperate enough to do something like that.

I know she's not going to be eating at home for a while

I'm probably stretched too thin but I don't have any real expectations. When I'm active, they tend to be active. but nothing has taken on its own beyond a small group of Washington Capitals Hockey fans.

there’s tremendous value in repairing and upgrading existing things.

Value created doesn't translate to value extracted and VCs and managers and marketers and the general public fork over more money in exchange for new shiny than old, reliable, maintained. There are few exceptions.

Over 6 months and over a month, I think most users with multiple accounts use their accounts at least once to post, comment, or vote. So it wouldn't surprise me if active users to active accounts was 1:2

 

In the command-line window the command line can be edited just like editing text in any window. It is a special kind of window, because you cannot leave it in a normal way.

There are two ways to open the command-line window:

  1. From Command-line mode, use the key specified with the 'cedit' option (default CTRL-F).

  2. From Normal mode, use the "q:", "q/" or "q?" command.

  • This starts editing an Ex command-line ("q:") or search string ("q/" or "q?"). Note that this is not possible while recording is in progress (the "q" stops recording then).

When the window opens it is filled with the command-line history. The last line contains the command as typed so far. The left column will show a character that indicates the type of command-line being edited

 

A new kind of computer architecture that's more elegant than 1s and 0s, being based directly on Mathematics.

Note: Everything in here is real (IEEE-754), but the target is computer scientists and the troll level is set to ULTRA.
