Hey I've been there, and after reflecting on it, the truth is, (at least from my perspective), you don't really, truely want it yet. Don't take that as judgement, I'm certainly not in a place to judge, but I've kicked severeral multi-year addictions, and weed was one I had the pleasure of just "deciding to quit". For me quitting weed came with breaking a friendship of the longtime smoking buddy I had, though after getting off of it and reflecting, I realize he was just using me as a convenient spot to store his weed. YMMV, but I think you got this, and hopefully my experience lends some light onto your difficulties with quitting.

Oh I thought that was an April fools joke! I'm pretty sure I saw something about it on April 1st on the homepage. Had no idea it was a real thing.

What the heck is archinstall?

Hey, I'm not disagreeing with you here, but keep in mind none of those things are necessary for survival, and most such products can last decades if properly maintained.

I think you're arguing against the most extreme interpretation of what this person said.

To give you an example, I'll show you what it looks like if I were to interpret your comment in the same way:

In some capacity, you have to admit, self sufficiency is possible. Forged metal, magnets, and batteries aren't necessary to sanitize water, grow, forage or hunt food, or to build shelter.

Are you sure there's a conspiracy here, and not just a bunch of folks laughing at and copying a popular meme format?

Because its funny, I like Taylor a lot, no one is totally guiltless. This isn't about making people accountable, its about making people laugh.

It doesn't have to be a compromise

You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

Any change to appease you would be a compromise, you understand this, yes?

Oh my god, you get it. Thank you for your continued existence. Keep going!

JustZ is only saying Joe Rogan is a moron. The term "full moron" isn't a commonly used phrase on its own, but the word "full" followed by an adjective or noun can be used to enhance the descriptive word, such the quote "never go full retard" from the comedy movie "Tropic Thunder". The context is that an actor played a person with a mental disability in a movie, but they tried too hard, and the performance was uncomfortable for some people.

I feel compelled to note that I don't condone using hateful or disparaging language when describing the differently abled.

I think it is simply saying that the named groups may get filtered out by this process, without making any claim regarding other groups.

This looks really cool, thanks for your effort here, @Katzenmann@programming.dev

Because they get paid by some businesses for exposure, and not by others.
