I get it.

I fucking love this. I’ve been wanting to get into some slightly more professional looking development and being able to make some Lemmy plugins would be huge for me

Can not get to you under the blanket

Good point.

There actually an interesting reason behind this.

And here’s the real one, if anyone is interested. Alligators are ambush predators, and they don’t do very well with twisting. They’re designed to go forwards, and boy oh boy do the GO FORWARDS. So, poking at it’s side actually does make it hesitant because it is afraid that whatever is touching it over there is just as fast as it is. However, whatever is over there touching it’s side doesn’t have to twist, whereas it would. Therefore, it sits still and hopes that you either get in front of it, pass over it, or at least be swift.

I would add random instance names to the service icons, to show them that the websites are interconnected and not just the services

I’d move to Alaska if they did tbh. I already have some family out there, they can teach me to fly a biplane and I’ll be set

Some frontends actually have a button that does it automatically and even puts my cursor between the marks conveniently

No problem with AI generated art itself. Mostly an issue with “AI artists”

Not in the same way you can make em bounce

You’re gonna look around and see a few old accounts and think you missed the early bus. You didn’t. We’re still pioneering.

If you think “why isn’t there a community for this” or “why isn’t anyone posting to this community” it’s because we’re small and we need people like you to fix those issues!

Parents watched their child die

One of the things that stopped me from committing suicide at my lowest point a few years ago, was my mom asking me to break the tradition in our family of mothers burying their sons.

This is unrelated, but it reminded me and it’s never a bad time to remind people that they matter to someone I suppose

I now have boat money. I still pirate tho

Plunder the seas!

I was in a similar place, but now I’m in a slightly dumber place. I have a solid savings buffer, and an okay income but I put the bulk of my savings into a certificate and then ended up needing my liquid savings for nonsense.

So I have a solid savings buffer, but I can’t touch it lol

Lord yeah. The money saved by not paying for all those streaming services might actually be able to buy a yacht, fuck the coffee

While you’re not wrong, this also isn’t a counterpoint to what I said. I’m not sure if that was your intention.

@remindme@mstdn.social 5 days

Jesus Christ I know I need glasses but they’re RIGHT THERE in my face too. Thank you lmfao

It does, but on Android I can (well honestly I hit the little Italics button on voyager and it does it for me, with those) just press shift 8 for *

Whether its 12 months of grace or 12 seconds, the interest rate that comes after the grace period is still scalping

Yeah but I don’t live in nature so what do I give a fuck? I just want people to stop being assholes to each other

I used to do the /Italics/ a lot but over here we use markdown so it’s just as easy to do *italics* like this
