Oh doh. I should have gotten that. Thanks

Sorry I don’t get it. Can you explain?

Red blouse? What is this??!

Do you have large… hands?

I’ve been hit so many times I should have a purple heart. This screenshot is akin to a NK general showing off his stripes.

I’ve heard it called “displacement activity”

Because it would stink. I get your point but there are better ways of demonstrating it.

This happened to my wife a decade or so ago. She has cerebral palsy and struggles to walk. We arrive at the examination center responsible for assessing her needs for continued social welfare. The exam office was on the 4th floor and the lift didn’t work. The building receptionist shrugged. We had to go through a lengthy appeal process after they claimed we never turned up for the appointment.

No you’re right. Now that I’ve slept on it I see your point. When looking from the population perspective there are half as many fed agents available so they are half as effective (increased wait times, reduction of services etc).

operate half as effectively

I think you mean double effective. Seeing as each fed needs to cater for double the populace.

It adds more functionality but makes adminstration more complicated.

Like I was reading posts on Lemmy yesterday that the reason Nextcloud file sync is preferred over seafile for some is because seafile stores the data in a format that can only be read by seafile. This is what systemd does.

I have fextralife black listed. I don’t know what their game is but it feels fake. Long winded introductions with little substance and recently ai slop.

My step father, at 77 said to me “you never feel old in your head. I’m an 18yr old in a 70yr old body”.

Instances have a choice to enable a new Lemmy feature that will proxy all images through the local instance. Whilst your instance may not do that today it may do in the future. Or you could move to an instance that has this enabled. I don’t know how to list instances with it enabled but it should be obvious by the URL used by images when viewed from an instance.

I know Lemmy hates telegram but it should be common knowledge that all platforms process requests from authorities.

The repeated posting of this story the last few days seems artificial.

The cables are capable of 100kw and are thick and heavy

They are starting to rip out the cables used in car chargers. It’s only 2m long, costs £300 to replace and the thief strips out £4 worth of copper.

There is a trend on Lemmy to hate on Windows, Microsoft etc. I get it, they deserve the flak. But I haven’t had many issues with Onedrive in particular. Is it because Windows has it preinstalled and tried to get you to use it?

I don’t get the middle statement. If you pick just one, the chance is 5%

I don’t get it 😔
