I get the impression Twonks has an inherent distrust for therapists.
- Comment on Why are lemmings so touchy about downvotes? 4 days ago:
I meant it as db0 is not a piefed instance, so the advice about seeing voting on the piefed hub was not relevant to you.
- Comment on Why are lemmings so touchy about downvotes? 4 days ago:
You might not see this, but piefed and db0 are like the Hatfields and McCoys. And OP is a db0 user, so it’s guaranteed they don’t use piefed (not with that account anyway).
- Comment on Why are lemmings so touchy about downvotes? 4 days ago:
I’m sure different mods have their different reasons. Maybe it’s a frail ego, or maybe they’re morally righteous and find downvotes derogatory and demeaning. Who knows how some people think. 🤷♂️
Also, you’re thinking of Lemvotes. In my experience, it doesn’t always work for all instances. Hell, there’s been my own posts that on .world that I couldn’t pull up.

So what’s the threshold to say when something that compresses is compressible?

Nope. Just unconscious.

Ceiling fans and air conditioners are two different things. I wasn’t who you were replying to, I’m just some nimrod American who responded to your comment about air conditioners.
- Comment on Some heroes 3 weeks ago:
Air conditioners in the US are typically whole house and not room independent.

- Arrogance: we especially don’t want to do it because the rest of the world does.
- Cost: not the equipment, though that can get pretty pricey considering we up the margins on everything, but mostly labor; labor is ungodly expensive (they cry insurance or (my fave) “you’re paying for the years of experience”).

Baby steps. Gotta start somewhere.

Either way, learn how the block button works, then use it.
You do realize that spam texts use spoofed numbers, and blocking does no good because the next spam text will be from a different number?

- Comment on "Digital Signatures" just ask you to type your name into a box now. Am I right in thinking this almost-completely defeats the purpose of a signature? 5 weeks ago:
You might disagree, but that doesn’t mean you’re right. A signature does not require cursive. It doesn’t even have to be legible. It’s a mark that you make signifying that you agree to whatever it is you’re signing.

Do you hear yourself right now? That is the oldest, most snake-oil bullshit anybody could ever come up with. And here you are doubling down on it and acting like your so-called insider information makes you somehow wise and all-knowing.
Seriously, I want you to stand in front of the mirror and say what you said to yourself.
Go. Try it. Bet that won’t cost anybody their job.

This hurts my heart. If I were to say there was any “failure” (I use that term loosely here), it’s that you obviously deprived your child of the joy that is Tetris.
But, fear not! It’s never too late.

- Comment on How come lemmy.world won't allow me to connect while using NordVpn? I just got it and never seen anything on lemmy.world say anything about it. 2 months ago:
From my personal experience, not all VPM IPs are blocked. So you may need to cycle through your VPN until you find one that isn’t blocked by LemmyWorld.
I used to use PIA, and I have an app for my kids’ school grades, and I could never connect to the app when on the VPN. But then I switched to Mullvad, and now I can use the app (some locations still don’t work, but most do).
If you can’t use the apps you need while using Nord, you may want to consider another provider.
It’s frustrating, but a lot of websites and apps are blocking VPNs.

You also forgot how scientist is required to publish regularly to keep their job, and to find new jobs. So this process is far from optional.
That aside, that was an excellent write up. You should publish that to a journal or something. 😏

Coincidentally, OOP just explained academic publishing to a T.

Be careful what you say to an AI. There are more than one story of personal information being leaked, and other stories where the AI will try to get you to self harm. This is not to mention the fact that whatever you say to an AI can likely be read by the company hosting the AI, and with all of the data leaks these days, that’s likely not something you want out on the Internet at some point.
