Well I was used to MMOs with different servers and I thought I’d have to create an account for each if I wanted to be with my friends. I didn’t know Mastodon was NOT a mere Twitter alternative, and I wasn’t familiar with the concept of the fediverse.

Oh yeah that’s true, and also that’s why we should move away from lemmy.world. It’s great to welcome newcomers but it shouldn’t be where most users are.

I’m glad no one said spiders, although they are scary they’re the best roommates

Might be a naive question but what prevents instance admins here on Lemmy to also give this information?

I won’t get a boner

Yes my house by me

Lemmy brings out the old internet!

I don’t think it’s possible, unless he lives on little saint james…

Well, none. He can do whatever he wants.

His government is slightly smarter than him so for now we’re safe, however no one’s going to stop a dictator.

It will inevitably happen. One day a dumb enough ruler will use it.

But what happens next? Do we just stop there, apologize and go back to our normal lives?

And you’re probably right, the next bomb would destroy that ruler, but only if the receiver has nukes as well. If he doesn’t, who’s going to do anything to defend/avange him? No one wants to enter an nuclear war.

What should they use then? Confidential information shouldn’t be sent through emails anyway. Might as well just choose the convenient way for the rest.

Jobs? Nope we don’t do this anymore

I don’t know if it’s your fault honestly. It’s the system that makes you want to offshore your work to developing countries and not hire local employees. I get it. It’s cheaper. But when even independent developers start doing this we have reached post-late stage capitalism at this point

Don’t threaten us with a good time

That’s why you also buy off a high ranking dude so that no one questions the 20mins.

True but it’s a bit hypocritical on my part. I should be using cash every time I can, not every time I can’t use my card/apple pay.

Guess it was debunked actually, but the source is fox news…

I prefer to pay w/ cash in this case. I don’t know why tbh.

Most of the time I use Apple Pay in person. However sometimes they don’t accept it online so I have to use my card.

When I said “pay without using your card” I meant online, because I’ve never used Twint in a physical shop.

That’s what i’m saying, it’s just like Wero but slightly more advanced, a way to pay without using your card.
