  Well that’s funny, I’m typing this from the newly installed Connect app, since on Liftoff I couldn’t find an easy way to block an entire community.

  Yeah, I changed the app I use just to finally get rid of Star Trek stuff from my feed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I wish⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Huh?

  return number % 2 == 0

  That’s the only sane solution.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨For some reason, I'm doubtful.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Nope. What was it for?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Push It Somewhere Else⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Berlusconi is gone (ahem finally ahem)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Push It Somewhere Else⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t worry, yours is larger!

  Cheers from Italy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨For some reason, I'm doubtful.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  For me it was StarCraft / Broodwar, Warcraft (when it still was a RTS) and Caesar III.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨For some reason, I'm doubtful.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Reminds me of my first desktop PC.

  Intel Pentium II 266Mhz, 64MB of RAM, 2.99GB HDD.

  Of course a 3.5" floppy drive was also included, and a CD-R Reader.

  I had to purchase a 33.6k modem separately, tho.

  Get a Pixel.

  It just works

  For real tho…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fell asleep while wife was driving home last night, she went above and beyond by remembering how important this was to me...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Technically, nowhere it says she woke OP up.

  She just remembered how important this was to OP to the point of either waking OP up and let take a pic, or take a pic on her own.

  We will never know…

  This guy /s

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is everyone so giddy about the flooding thay happened at burning man?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I completely agree with you, although:

  I thought Lemmy wasn’t a wasteland of humanity like reddit was

  Never had any hope for that. Humanity is what it is, shitty folks are everywhere, it’s statistics.

  Looks like an 8 year old wearing dad’s coat, is all I’m saying

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨why isn't the use of the bidet more widespread?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol. Out of ALL the European countries to pick as example, you chose the worst.

  France definitely does not like bidets and French will even ask you why even bother having one, assuming they even know what it’s for.

  Try again with Italy. Basically every household has one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uno reverse 🔁⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Double that and you can rest assured that the X I will pronounced will be verified to have come out of my own mouth. Not someone else’s, mine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨don't be shy, speak your mind⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Shower for watering, jet for cleaning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨don't be shy, speak your mind⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Cone.

  You’re a garden hose n00b, sorry.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Already planning for how to survive in jail⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  And for me the feeling is inversely proportional to the time spent there.

  I’m looking for something very specific, they don’t have it, I leave. But man, does it seem I just went in real quick to steal something as fast as possible.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨higher wages for the servers... by the customers. Fnbs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Ok, thanks!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨higher wages for the servers... by the customers. Fnbs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks! Seems a reasonable approach

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨higher wages for the servers... by the customers. Fnbs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Let’s hope so, as someone who’s not used to it, I find it quite confusing and not really transparent. Plus it’s kind of a guilt trip every time. I would take a higher overall bill which covers staff salaries any day.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨higher wages for the servers... by the customers. Fnbs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨higher wages for the servers... by the customers. Fnbs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, please help me on this.

  I’m Italian and going on a trip to the western US in less than two weeks, and still haven’t understood how to behave wrt tipping/service charge.

  In my previous trips to the US, before this nonsense was automatically added to the bill, I would tip between 15 and 20 depending on my level of satisfaction with the waiting staff.

  What should I do now, when visiting places auto-charging a service fee?

  Any advice is appreciated, thanks!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨quatre-vingts⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Neunante always struck me as a bit weird (although much better than the math thingy).

  Neuvante would seem a more reasonable derivation from neuf.

  Would also make it closer to other latin languages like Italian and Spanish.
