You’re proselytizing mercurial in a thread full of git users. Migration is implied in your comment, even if you didn’t literally use those words.

“Simpler” is not necessarily an improvement and might actually be a downside. “Intuitive” is not universal and might not even be accurate for other people with different experiences.

I read just fine. Maybe you must learn to chill.

Sometimes I take 3 showers a day and it’s still less total time than I’ve wasted online.

. . .and your bed gets continually dirtier. . .

Whose sheets are dirtier? The person who only climbs into bed once they’re freshly showered and clean, or the person who takes their entire day’s accumulation of dirt, grime, dust and pollen and climbs into bed covered in all that filth and gross?

Neither of those observations, even if true, are an incentive for someone to migrate away from git.

You’re absolutely right!

I dunno, man. Home Assistant talks to my LG washer and dryer. The tablet on my desk shows a countdown timer for both when they’re running. It’s convenient as hell because I can’t hear the finish chime from my office.

Just to stay on topic, according to my router they’ve generated 256KB of traffic this week and 1.55MB the past month.

I actually find straight down to be really annoying and always struggle to keep water from streaming down into my eyes and face. I find the slight angle from a wall mounted shower head much more versatile for cleaning and comfort.

“Signal devs could take care of that”

They did like eight years ago.

I imagine that the signal devs viewed it as a similar concern as when you mistype your password the error message doesn’t give you any way to know if the password is wrong or if the account doesn’t exist.

If only some of your notifications are sanitized then those are the suspicious ones. If all of your notifications are sanitized then none of them are suspicious. Or, at least, they’re all equally suspicious, opaque, and unidentifiable.

Why do you so confidently assert things which you do not know but merely believe without checking?

Signal has supported this for many years. Users can choose full content notifications, name only, or no-content notifications.

That’s called a “fontanelle”

Username checks out.

I don’t think it requires or implies coordination. What looks like coordination might simply be an overall increase in authoritarian governments globally which all share many of the same incentives to limit privacy and increase population tracking.

You could do anything on zombo.com.

This is one thing I never understood… how does he keep getting away with it? Repeatedly screwing people over and over and over and over again and somehow no one doing shit about it?

All his fans and supporters believe that he only screws over their common enemies. In fact, they love that he does that. They falsely believe that he would never screw over them. He will never eat their faces. They think they’re the in group with Trump.

Do you think all the extremely complex (and corrupt) existing financial system is more energy efficient?

it is.

Hey, someone is going to have to do all those below-subsistence jobs that the deported immigrants have been doing.

I barely graduated high school and never completed my only semester of community college. My whole life I found it very difficult engaging with formal education and lacked motivation to focus on the synthetic work of school. It always felt meaningless and detached from reality to me. I was eager to be done with school as soon as possible.

I’m very satisfied with how my life turned out and the minimal role of formal education within it.

Sounds like maybe she isn’t either.
