I’m the exact same/opposite. I need a calculator and decimal points(🤪) to set my thermostat.

Wait - what do we call them now? I thought the major categories were “upright” and “canister”?

A nor’easter is a specific weather pattern; it’s not just “weather that hits the north east”.
I assume there is not an equivalent weather pattern for the north west.

Yeah - I didn’t think that one was a secret…

Looking through the list it sounds like folks are simultaneously upset that they have a non-interventionist policy and also that they do intervene in extreme cases.
Not an enviable position. I guess the answer is to strictly define and follow a policy setting when a situation escalates to the point they will intervene.

- Comment on I'm right and the other vegans are wrong 3 weeks ago:
Again, can’t tell if that’s because you think it’s an insignificant issue, or if you think the answer is obvious, and if so which answer you think that is. Are you being funny on purpose? If so bravo.
Again? Have we talked about this before?
As a non-vegan who doesn’t spend much time in vegan spaces I wouldn’t say it’s insignificant, but if it hadn’t been brought to my attention as a topic of debate amongst vegans I never would have considered it. I’ve just had a pretty cut and dry understanding that animal products are not vegan.
You can see in my other comments here, my speculation as to how that could be the wrong take. Not because I think any one side or the other is right or wrong, but just trying to understand each position.
I usually am trying to be funny, but not in this case. I’m mostly just disappointed in myself for not knowing why my comment would be funny 😒

Fickle fickle, Travis Bickle, how does your computer worm grow?
- Comment on What are you doing for digital estate planning? 3 weeks ago:
For me, I narrowed it down to Bitwarden and Proton Pass.
I found it very hard to test both in parallel so I ended up just kind of making a feel-based call. I think either would have been fine, but I don’t think either is as nice as 1Password.
Bitwarden supports transferring passkeys from other password managers (on iOS anyway) but Proton Pass doesn’t. That was going to be the deciding factor for me, but the transfer failed (I believe this was a failure at the OS level; not Bitwarden’s fault) so I ultimately went with Proton Pass because I felt the interface was a little cleaner.

In case you hadn’t seen the news.
I’ve been a paying customer and advocate of 1Password for over a decade but I’ve made the switch to something else.

Password manager with a recovery phrase tied to an elaborate world wide scavenger hunt

Do/can domesticated bees swarm/rewild?
If so it seems like it would be the best argument that bee keeping was mutually consensual.
It’s a bit like being against backyard chickens because Tyson and Perdue are an evil industrial ag duopoly
Are there apiary industry standards/certifications? It seems unlikely most folks are buying the backyard chicken version of honey.
- Comment on I'm right and the other vegans are wrong 3 weeks ago:
Not a vegan but I am surprised to learn there is a debate amongst vegans about honey.

To completely alleviate these concerns, I have to buy a phone case that costs half of the purchase price of the phone
You’re either paying way too much for your cases or need to hook me up with your phone guy…

- Comment on Why are lemmings so touchy about downvotes? 3 weeks ago:
Ahh - makes more sense. Apparently whatever site you can see this at shows that my ratio isn’t great? So I’ve been told.
I browse by New and run into a lot more…cruft…than the average lemming though. That’s my validation, anyway. I don’t feel like I’m grumpy and I feel like my post and comment history is in line with that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- Comment on Why are lemmings so touchy about downvotes? 3 weeks ago:
I mean both in reddit and lemmy the concept of downvotes was never meant to be a “agree” or “disagree”, even “like or dislike”. It’s meant to be a “good for discussion” vs “hinderance of discussion”.
“The purpose of a system is what it does” (POSIWID).
Voting increases or decreases visibility; thus, I vote to increase or decrease visibility.
- Comment on Why are lemmings so touchy about downvotes? 3 weeks ago:
That does happen. Has happened to me in fact. But you asked about ‘ratio’ so I assumed you were interested in the upvote vs downvote counts. Not who was voting how.
Seems odd that you would complain about people being touchy about downvotes, and then want to go see who’s up and downvoting you, though.
- Comment on Why are lemmings so touchy about downvotes? 3 weeks ago:
I think most clients will have an option to display upvotes/downvotes separately.
Voyager certainly does, anyway…
