I’m using a new phone keyboard, please forgive typos.
How the fuck can you reprimand someone for not reporting an incident properly when they report it to their supervisor? The supervisor’s responsibility at that point is to either inform the employee of the proper way to report it or report it on their behalf. If the report doesn’t come through properly then the supervisor has failed to fulfill their duties, not the other employee.
I love this meme, but I feel like including TKL in the circle would be a little more fitting. I know I’m a little biased for being a TKL user, but they really aren’t that esoteric. Every key is where you expect it. It just doesn’t have a numpad.
Well, the reason I don’t view it as a euphemism is because it’s typically associated with totalitarian regimes. The government “disappears” people. See here,
to cause (someone or something) to disappear:
a: to abduct and kill or imprison (someone, such as a political dissident) while withholding information about the person’s fate
Her son was disappeared during Argentina’s so-called ‘Dirty War.’— Associated Press
“Disappearing” someone carries more weight than “abducting” someone.
I mean, technically most people with 401ks are buying the dip.

I’ve never viewed “disappearing” as a euphemism.
Usually they are lying. It means they hate poor people.
I don’t mind the concept, it was the layout that made small one sentence replies become like 15x longer on the page.
Quit whining about it and make a good community outside of those.
Be a good community member yourself.
Nice. Be the change you wanna see!
I see myself coming less and less to Lemmy due to how monotopic this place is. And how aggressively stupid people here can be.
What happened to “quit whining”?
Yeah, probably just a typo.
I literally went and asked a question and someone responded “?faq” and a bot responded with the FAQs. Mind blowing. They could’ve just posted it on their GitHub page. This was for a Minecraft mod.
You need to think of why people would choose to use it for creating a forum. It’s comically easy to set up. Making a server (their terminology, blame Discord, not me) just takes a couple of clicks.
20 posts per page? lol. I think usually it was 10.
Don’t forget profile pictures and signatures making every post take up way more screen space than they should.
Why would someone not act 100% rationally 100% of the time?
Okay is one of the coolest words ever. It started sort of as a “meme” speak thing around 1900 (I don’t remember exactly, may have been older). They would take phrases then spell them differently then abbreviate the misspelling. So okay the word was originally OK the acronym for “oll korrect” which was “all correct.”
A similar thing would be like saying “acey” for “AC” for “all correct”. I’ve thought about trying to make it a thing with my friends but it feels a little too abstract.
It depends on the context and the person for me.
He killed one dude,
Stop saying this shit.
Gee, I wonder if Aryansoldier1488 knows if 1488 is a dog whistle for Nazis? I’d hate for Aryansoldier to get caught up in this. It was probably a random number.
Why retaliate at all though?
