Small anecdote: I bought a new Cheverolet Bolt about two years ago.
A couple of months after I bought it there was a recall on the batteries, they had to replace all of them in the car.
They were out of stock for quite a while (I assume because of supply chain issues)
They finally replaced them a couple of months ago.
I choose to see that as a 2 years extension on my bettery life,lucky me!
Do the main quest for a while, it is not missable I think.
~~While I agree that it wasn't the time nor the place, that video had nothing to do with the sexual harrassment/assault allegations.~~
~~This was in response to GN video and subsequent Linus response on their forum.~~
~~The other stuff came after.~~
~~Still weird, but not on the same scale in my opinion~~.
Edit: I just saw timestamps lower in another comment chain showing that the apology video actually came after the twitter post.
While it was most likely filmed and edited before said post, launching as is is pretty bad indeed.
I was raised by my grandparents.
My grandfather was the cook most of the time, and he was always trying new recipies he found online: in years, I don't think I ever saw him cook the same meal twice.
Everytime he'd taste something new, he'd enthusiastically comment "it's different than usual!" (Rough translation from French "ça fait changment!")
To this day, I have no idea how good or how bad he thought any of those dishes were.
That's too broad a claim for me to agree.
In this specific event, adjusting for inflation on older movies might show that there was precedent where a movie directed by a single woman was more successful than this one.
If that happen, that achievement should also be celebrated. If that didn't happen, this movie should be even more celebrated.
Asking for more data isn't the same thing as attacking a claim.
Maybe I'm just naive, but I like to assume good intentions.
If someone actually say something sexist, calling them out is important. But I don't think assuming sexism first is a good thing either.
I'm not the person you answered to, but as english ain't my first language I figured I'd ask:
I get that this person was trying to say "piqued" as in "got my interest"
But wouldn't "peaked" as in "my interest couldn't possibly get higher as it has peaked from that new information" also be valid?
(I get it's a saying, but as I'm not familiar with that saying in english it didn't bother me, which is why I'm curious)
I worked in groceries story when I was younger.
But funily enough, it's probably one of the rare times I'd have answered "yes"!
We got a policy here where anything mislabelled under 10$ is free for the first item. Anything over 10$ gets a 10$ rebate.
My understanding is that it was put in place a while ago when stores stopped labelling individual items to keep them in check and ensure that consumers had a recourse in case of mistake.

NULL being "no money" by any definition, and the regular price for this probably being under 10$... well, it's probably free!
DDoS are sometimes just people thinking "because I can", not necessarily motivated by profit.
A smallish scale service like a lemmy server ran by volunteers seems like an easy target, so it wouldn't be surprising that being the case.
Being rich doesn't mean your life doesn't suck, just that you don't have money problems.
