Maybe I’m missing something, but I thought you could only upvote / downvote posts. Comments were just a thread, and whoever commented first was at the top.

Hence why a lot of our early shitposting was just commenting “first” as soon as an interesting post when live.

I should’ve clarified.

It had post voting, but no comment voting.

My migration was primarily driven by threading, voting, and ads.

  1. forums (community topics) >
  2. slashdot (community topics + threads) >
  3. digg / reddit (community topics + threads + comment voting) >
  4. Lemmy (community topics + threads + comment voting - ads)

Obama was right. Once people lived with the ACA, they wouldn’t want to go back. The GOP knows that now, so now they’re going to pretend that they fixed it.

And that’s a symptom of media and social media echo chambers.

Our policy was that no one with a marijuana conviction for mere possession could do any (jail time) at all,” said Paul Henderson, who led narcotics prosecutions for several years under Harris. Defendants arrested for the lowest-level possession would typically be referred to drug treatment programs instead of being charged, and weightier charges for marijuana sales would routinely be pleaded down to less serious ones, he said.

John Oliver definitely had a point when he said hospice care is super long in the US. Carter has been is hospice for nearly 2 years.

As someone who works in data privacy, I don’t think the DS crazy ever died down. It’s bigger and more complex than ever. People just got tired of saying “big data” at Silicon Valley bars.

Imagine this 65 year old man, sitting at home listing to All Too Well, because he could really relate to dating a Jake Gyllenhaal type, then Taylor tweets that she’s all in for Harris, and his world comes crashing down.

Harris is from Oakland. She gets it. There are nice dispensaries everywhere in Oakland. Even in very family-friendly or affluent parts of town.

You don’t have to fund severance if people leave on their own.

National defense is not what the “tank” in tankie refers to.

 
 

This blew up pretty fast and hard. MKBHD released a wallpaper app that asks for a ton of data and only allows you to download 1080p wallpapers unless you pay $50.

 
 

IDs in Apple Wallet use the privacy and security features that are built into Apple devices to help protect a user’s identity and personal information. When adding an ID to Apple Wallet, the state-issuing authority receives only the information it needs to approve or deny the request.

Once an ID is added to Apple Wallet, the information is encrypted on a user’s device, so others — including Apple — cannot access it unless a user chooses to present it. Apple and the state-issuing authority do not know when or to whom a user presents their driver’s license or state ID. A user’s presentment history is encrypted and stored only on their device, and Apple cannot see or access this information.

When presenting an ID in Apple Wallet, only the information needed for the transaction is presented, and the user has the opportunity to review and authorize the information being requested with Face ID or Touch ID before it is shared. Users do not need to unlock, show, or hand over their device to present their ID.
