    Reminds me of early season TNG, where they go to that paradise world, everyone is young and attractive, and Wesley is almost executed.

    What a great planet…

    Which is also a G (when played in key of C). In fact, it’s the same G note as the letter G in the alphabet song, since it’s the same song and G is the 7th letter.

    So people tend to “live longer” where there’s poverty, rewards for reaching old age (pensions) and poor record keeping (e.g. birth certificates). Fascinating coincidences!!

  • People who lived in an HOA, what was your biggest nightmare with them?

    Lived in a 1Br condo with one for 5 years. Didn’t have any major beef with mine.

    Only issue was they didn’t allow anyone to install air conditioners in their units when I first moved in. Then they said they’d be allowing mini-splits soon, after which it took them 2 years to get that approved. Unfortunately they had designated locations where the condenser had to go, which for the unit I was in, was right next to the front door and kitchen window. I was all ready to purchase one until that detail came out…

    Ended up toughing it out for the next year until I could afford to move out into a bigger house without an HOA. Now I’m happy to have full control over anything that goes on or through my roof, attic, and exterior walls.

    Correction: she got 400k people to click a link where they can get information about registering to vote in their state. Whether those were unregistered voters and/or if any of those actually went through with registration remains to be seen.

    Furthermore, it must prove to its client base that it can recover from the Raptor Lake fiasco by releasing power-efficient and stable processors that deliver leading performance without any self-inflicted damage during their service life.

    And that’s the rub, isn’t it? Even if these new processor release with great performance gains, who out there isn’t going to have some doubt in their mind that it’s at the cost of hardware longevity?

    With their poor handling of this issue, I’d probably need to wait a good 2 years to confirm that stock settings aren’t killing their processors, before I consider buying Intel again.

    I can always cure and smoke my own pork belly, should the govt decide I can’t get it at a store…. Just like someone can take sugar and other garbage and put it into their water should they so desire.

    I feel like it was good 2004-2010… at least those were my golden years there. The pork was still actually good, and their chips and guac were so bomb. Now their chips are just so sad, both in flavor and texture.

    Flavor comes from my steak and my bacon Brussels sprouts, not my beverage.

    And actually sodas don’t “taste nice”. Go keto for a few months and break that sugar addiction. The next time you try a soda you’ll realize they’re all sickeningly sweet and not fit for human consumption.

  • So lets say my home instance is Instance A, but I'm browsing Community 1 in Instance B. Now in that community I see a comment that I want to reply to with a link to a comment I saw in Instance C, community 2, just because I think it's the most relevant to the discussion. If I use the URL from the 2 chains "link" icon, that will send users to `https://instance.a/comment/#######` on my home instance. So that will send anyone from another instance who follows my link, to my instance and log them out of their account.... If I use the URL from the rainbow network "link" icon, it will send the user to `https://instance.c/comment/#######`, thus logging them out of their account on their instance (unless instance c happens to be their home). But what about users coming across the conversation from Instance B? Or Instance D or F, or H? Is there a way to format the URL for that link such that anyone can follow it without moving to another instance, and/or logging out of their home instance? This feels to me like it would be an important core feature of a platform like this.... otherwise when sharing ideas, usability becomes... challenging.
