Thanks for the heads-up on this! Didn’t realize that was in the works

Interesting, thanks! It sounds like you could hide the ability to vote either way then on an instance’s frontend, but as you say, it wouldn’t really do much to address voting activity from either other frontends or instances.

Yeah, that’s along the lines of what I’m asking about, albeit instead of a subscription check more like, I think, however the instances disabling/removing downvoting have done so, but adjusting the scope strictly to the Local or All views.

Another approach to addressing outsider/passive voting behaviors.

What’s a spoonerism?

Have you been following your heart? If not the most, the moist may at least be there.

Linkin, trains, and nobody’s mentioning Lincoln Logs?

Doesn’t the Earth deserve the occasional pizzafice?

Appreciate the example! It’s when handling a DHCP range and the related CIDR notation that I tend to get especially muddled in this area. It certainly doesn’t help that each router’s interface and terminology tends to vary just enough to add uncertainty.

Regardless, the comments here and more focus on this have helped clear some of this up for me.

Thanks for some detail! What you describe reassures me in my decision not to get further into it, particularly as a professor path seemed one of few traditional options with what I studied.

Are doctorate/grad school programs distinctly competitive? My impression was that they were more challenging but similar in nature to undergrad insofar as loads of coursework to stay on top of to complete courses and ensure you got some of the most expensive, “You endured it!” paperwork in the world.

…How are they able to continue providing these but not maintain the Bridge Access Program for the uninsured? 🤨

If they want to change the regulations, then work on that. Blatantly violating them and challenging copyright holders doesn’t help anyone.

Have you studied history? Non-violently violating unjust laws is a means of working on that and striving to help others. Those responding as you have are no more helpful than you think those you criticize have been. If anything they’re less so as their support may have been of greater help in changing things instead of letting them worsen.

Is there an AcademicDictionary in the vein of Urban Dictionary for all the jargon and filler patterns?

What are shitboxes?

Dr. Jill Stein has improved the Green Party; y’all just believe anything the duopoly and owner-class media spit out when it agrees with your thinking.

In what ways, alongside the one point mentioned, and according to what sources (presumably not from the party itself)?

Appreciate the thoughtful reply! I can see where you’re coming from in terms of opening TLDs up creating a bunch of issues, even though I do still enjoy the more playful ones despite that.

It’s honestly a little surprising that so many have been made available given the issues it can present, but I think that’s largely a byproduct of approaching the internet less from a rigidly structured perspective and more of a loose informal perspective.

do you think you’d be able to tell if it was instead a massive homelab run by the microorganisms in your house?

Personally, the childish side of me will always get a kick out of .wtf in a website name.

And even though this is lemmy, when I searched for “Ubuntu Help”, there’s no community named that. There’s also no community named “Linux help”. Which I find very very odd. Lemmy of all places you’d think would have a linux help community!

Have you been by !linuxquestions@lemmy.zip yet? Nevertheless, this community should work just as well.

There’s also !linux4noobs@programming.dev or a community with the same name on Lemmy World. When specificity in a search fails, falling back to broader/more basic terms may help (e.g. searching for Ubuntu or Linux).

Is this part of your sibling goofing routine?
