Being questionable is a property of being human.

The hard thing is to actually get past their lizard brain and contact their logical brain.

I can't imagine myself in a relationship with someone who identifies with any ideology so strongly they define themselves as that.

I dont know if this is what you mean, but I once recieved an empty package and it was a struggle to get a replacement. It doesnt fit any categories they recognize. It's not 'did not recieve' ( there was even a delivery pic), there's nothing to return. I had to chat (IM) with someone multiple times.

Maybe they've been developing immunity...

I momentarily misread that as "depression fart" and was expecting a different reason for changing sheets.

It's not even a compromise really, it's very up to date and very stable.

It's really hard to imagine when you are trying to learn. You just have to trust it will happen. You are basically training unconscious parts of your brain, and at some point all the hardness just vanishes and some unconscious part of your brain just magically does all the hard stuff for you without you thinking about it.

You didn't mention Scotland, but on the off chance, could it have been Ghosts Go Haunting?

Dementia often causes personality changes. It can make really nice people into assholes, and it can turn people who were real bastards into the reverse.

What gets me is how transparent the term is, and people still act like its a good thing.

Since when are HR working class?

And you don't even need to bring class into it, their role is the same even when the employees aren't working class either.

 

So is this Thunder itself or some app it is deferring to whose config I should look at?

Basically videos start out dim for a few seconds until the video controls fade out. This means the first few seconds of every video are basically unwatchable, and with short videos this is all or most of the video. For example https://lemmy.world/post/17884719

 

Of the many Lemmy clients I've tried, Thunder is the one I like the best, but the one place I have nits is the creating a comment experience.

After typing the comment you have close you keyboard, to have any hope of the create button being visible (if your comment is really short) and then scroll all the way back up to the top. Isn't the bottom the obviously better place for this button?

Even worse, if in trying to scroll the screen, you accidentally hit the little horizontal bar at the top, you just lose your comment.

Finally, it seems to always lose my place in the thread and put me back at the top after entering a comment.
