How does one shrug with no hands or shoulders?

This might be why it stopped working

dark money
noun

funds raised for the purpose of influencing elections by non-profit organizations that are not required to disclose the identities of their donors. “more than $3 million in dark money poured into that race through non-profit groups”

Yeah that’s fair, I saw McDonald’s and I thought of ovens, so my brain accepted it as oven mitts.

They are two oven mitts, for anyone wondering. A little bit of pen and voilà - you have a goatse

The culture war indeed brings a lot of passionate discussions to the forefront. While it can be divisive, it also encourages people to engage with important issues and share diverse perspectives. It’s true that the mainstream media often portrays it negatively, but there’s value in the honest and raw conversations that emerge. By debating and fighting for our beliefs, we can work towards a better future for America. It’s crucial to keep these dialogues going, how back in nineteen ninety eight the undertaker threw mankind off hell in a cell and plummeted sixteen feet through an announcers table.

There’s a bed in the main area and one in the roof compartment. That technically makes 2 bedrooms.

Everything else is deflection and: Mimimimi

I always chuckle when I see this in the wild. For non-Germans: mimimi is mocking what someone said, like they are whining, for instance if they proclaim something is unfair.

This makes me feel old

What is this website? I get forcing to do a Captcha but forcing me to paste a PowerShell command (no matter how innocent) looks suspicious as fuck.

I think it depends on the instance. Some instances like to import a bunch of Reddit communities, sometimes with a slightly different name, and then start copying posts made on the subreddit to the lemmy community to get the ball rolling.

I wouldn’t go as far as blocking instances, but blocking communities that you aren’t interested in can go a long way to customize your feed with more original content

Great news I suppose. He does need to work on his PR if he wants to keep paying users on the app.

There’s users from Sync for Reddit who understand this is how he works - months of silence and then suddenly an update.

I’m not saying it’s unacceptable, but the lack of consistency and transparency is not for everyone so I understand when people flock to other apps thinking Sync is abandoned.

Thanks for the update, OP.

Surprised nobody has linked this one yet:

I tried to look you up but I’ll do it tomorrow

Provided the community has clear rules on where to post gifs/memes redirecting the user is fine. Of course it should be a gentle reminder and not feel as if the user is getting berated.

If they still get pissy after that, it’s more on the user. A reminder to follow the rules is not a personal attack.

So just scroll up? It’s not like when a message is off the screen, it’s gone forever. Or do you never catch up on messages that you missed while offline and just go in from there?

The good thing is that you can choose to ignore the meme, reply to the interesting thought and continue the conversation. Then if you keep the conversation going, it could be made a thread if people are interested in it.

Also a honeypot for memes is helpful so people are less inclined to drop them in general channels
