Calling women "females" instead of women, as if you were a frakking Ferengi, won't endear you the interest of any sensible person.

I love that the series Seven Days took this into consideration in its device.

The series is flawed in other ways, but that was neat.

god definitely exists, as it’s just a philosophical concept to say the “cause of all causes”.

Most believers will assert that their god exists in a different, more concrete way. The number of persons able or willing to discuss the topic on your terms is an insignificant minority.

Bribes, I'd venture.

It crashes, it loses things, it has a lousy search function, to automate messaging you need to learn one of the arcane and convoluted MS services because they deprecated the much easier webhooks...

When something fails (and it always does) we just say "Well... it's Teams", and that sums it up.

They are not required to serve and protect. US courts say so.

Yeah, but that's a secondary attribute. The new ones are stupid front and center.

I don't agree. I believe I can summarize the difference this way:

The prequels are bad. The sequels are stupid.

It's religious bullshit. That crap is eternal (no pun intended).

100% agreed. If I see a compliment sandwich, I assume that the person using the technique is lying about the compliments and I lose all respect for them.

Funny, in my 30s I didn't feel old 😄

 

When I open a post with a monochrome image, the full image appears reversed.

Scenario (steps to reproduce)

  1. Open a post with a monochrome image. E.g. https://lemmy.ca/post/4205892 . Preview appears OK

  2. Open the picture. It shows briefly as-is and then it reverses itself.
