Did the meaning of the word "dick" change over time, or something like that? Or did morals change. Or both?

Small question: I am on Debian and use Gnome. I'm the only user on this laptop. Is it possible to hide my username from the log in screen? So that only the password field shows? The point is, my login name is my first name, and I don't like it ... 1. ... when people in public transport can see my first name when I log in 2. ...that if I lose my laptop, the people who find it can easily know my first name I realize I could also simply pick a username that is not my first name, but it would save me a lot of reconfiguration if I could simply hide the name from the login screen.

But the moon cycles do not match the seasonal (solar) cycles no?
If you plant every six full moons, you end up planting in the winter at some point?
But then again, this only applies to higher latitudes.
Given that annual fluctuations in solar irradiation become less pronounced the closer you get to the equator, it might get less relevant to track time by referring to our position to the sun?

Capitalism is not just echange of goods and services for monetary reward. Its also the separation of labour from the means of production, the ensuing necessity of labour to sell their labour for a wage, and their ability to spend that wage freely at an open market.
If so how could they enforce that? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulation_to_Prevent_and_Combat_Child_Sexual_Abuse

Beautifully put.
Reading [this](https://www.theverge.com/2024/2/22/24080334/bluesky-self-hosting-servers-data-federated) article, and especially the end ... > CEO Jay Graber told The Verge that the plan is to hand over control of the AT protocol to a web standards body like the Internet Engineering Task Force. ... it almost sounds as if Bluesky is (going to be) as community-run as Mastodon. But I'm suspicious. What is the catch?
