type site:lemmy.world
in front of your search if using google. You can combine multiple instances with the OR operator ie site:lemmy.world OR site:programming.dev
this will force google to give you content only from your desired domains but lemmy.world posts will likely trample the other instances for a lot of stuff.
We’re becoming a little centralized (which I personally don’t find to be such a bad thing yet).
Really do we not expect governments to be reading publicly available information that’s put out on social media? They would have to be inept to pass that up.
A citation with a superscript number reference in a comment? Impressive.
I accuse you of sending billions of dollars in military aid packages to Ukraine!
…Uh yeah, it wasn’t a secret.
Damn I actually watched this is exact video about three weeks ago…
It’s important to note how we got here. In old English man just meant human. Wereman meant male and wifman meant female. Over time that “were” prefix got dropped and man now means male but the ambiguous meaning of humankind stuck around. In fact “human” comes from old french “of man”, again the non-gendered use of the word man.
The point is to fix all these problems we just have to bring back the “were”. The progressive werewolves are way ahead of us on this issue.
A lot of people hate being “left on read” where they see a programmed read receipt but aren’t actually acknowledged. Or for messages without programmed read receipts it does that as well. The thumbs up is also supposed to end conversations quickly.
It’s more like “look at this shit”/“you seeing this?”/“whoa” for general stuff. Or sometimes with a slightly inappropriate joke or flirting the eyes acknowledge that and lessen it - like saying jk did back in the day.
In this context if I sent a contract to someone younger and they responded 👀 I might have to doublecheck if something was glaringly wrong with it.
That’s not really how 👀 is used these days among the young folk, but I wouldn’t expect a random Canadian farmer to know that either.
I don’t think that a thumbs up emoji should be a valid signature. The farmer was responding to “please confirm flax contract” and the thumbs up emoji really could mean “I’ve seen your text and will look at the contract to confirm/deny soon.” Although the article did also mention that the same type of acceptance had happened previously with this farmer where the contracts were treated as valid and fulfilled so the farmer is probably disingenuous with their argument.
Should be banned everywhere smh. It’s crazy that people are just chucking lithium into the garbage for no reason…when vapes started as an easily reusable setup in the firth place.
