I prefer WizTree. It’ll show you space usage, but you can also search for files, and it’s incredibly fast.

Depends on how many people you’re envisioning in your commune, but you’ll likely need more than a one-acre garden. And working that garden is quite a bit of work!

Fuck spez.

“dynamically integrates positive content from Reddit users directly below an advertiser’s creative, putting community conversations front-and-center in the user experience and blending AI-driven efficiency with real human perspectives”.

the company is also introducing a “scalable, AI-powered social listening tool. […] Informed by proprietary metadata, it provides precise, real-time insights that help marketers confidently plan campaigns, validate creative ideas, and make smarter business decisions"

I wonder how much they had to pay a business major to come up with those sentences, or did they just use ChatGPT …

The APIcalypse.

I speak English. And, as James Nicoll said,

The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don’t just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.

I speak some Spanish and some Dutch, but I don’t know if I borrow many words from them that aren’t “normal” borrow-words.

Boo! :(

Those things that project images on walls and things - be nice if we could project images either in front or behind him, less likely to cause issues with the FAA, more likely to get media coverage.

I wonder how often they have to restock it?

Yeah, I suspected you were a troll. Blocked. Goodbye.

Fuck spez, fuck his not-covert support of Trump, misogyny and the alt-right neo-Nazis, and fuck him blatantly trying to profit from my comments and submissions.

This is really cool - thank you for sharing!

I do this when a company is doing something I want to encourage. I have a friend who’s deaf but we go to open-captioned movies, and I always stop by customer service to thank them for doing those showings. My cousin is immunocompromised, and I stop by the customer service desk at the grocery store to thank them for continuing to provide the cart wipes.

Apparently there was some school of teaching for a while, where the teachers were emphasizing getting your ideas down on paper quickly, without regard for spelling, spacing, paragraph-ing, punctuation, verb tense, etc. I ran across it when I was trying to find out why there was this generation of fanfic writers who had interesting concepts but couldn’t write to any kind of standard - and who were extremely resistant to any suggestions. Some of the concepts sounded really interesting, too, but it was entirely too much work to try to parse the story.

When texting (ie, fast reading and writing), I’ll occasionally do it for legibility when using exclamation points, when the sentence I’m writing ends in too many thin, upright letters. Like in a text, I think I will !

reads faster than I will!

Yes, I take the deal - but he loses his American citizenship for meddling in US elections, and can’t ever get a visa here, either.

. I still do it sometimes.

Please don’t. You can accidentally change the shape of your cornea, There’s also a risk that you can tear or detach your retina.

“Harvard’s got to behave themselves,” he told reporters gathered in the Oval Office. “Harvard is treating our country with great disrespect, and all they’re doing is getting in deeper and deeper and deeper.”

Years ago, someone on Tumblr had a comment on respect, which very much applies to Trump and his fascists:

Sometimes people use ‘respect’ to mean “treating someone like a person”, and sometimes they use ‘respect’ to mean “treating someone like an authority”.

And sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say, “If you won’t respect me, I won’t respect you”; and they mean, “If you won’t treat me like an authority, I won’t treat you like a person.”

And they think they’re being fair but they aren’t, and it’s not okay.
