And we need to make that process of getting kids who need it that basic foundational education as easy and cheap as possible. I would say the best thing we could do is make sure they have the opportunity to be de-programmed as soon as they are adults.
And sometimes they are living there and simply cannot afford to relocate. Relocating is very expensive in the U.S., especially if you want to relocate to an area that has better education.
Memmy has more customization options and I've found it to work a bit better than WefWef. For me, WefWef has been very sporadic in its functionality, with it sometimes just generating errors and requiring me to refresh.
Don’t know if that’s possible but what I do is create a note for a person - for example [[Jane Doe]].
Then I add the #people hashtag in the note which, thanks to the auto note mover plugin, sends the note directly to a specific “People” folder.
I then go in and add to the person’s note any info I want to save for them, such as where they work, email, etc.
This system had proven to be very helpful for work. Has helped me so many times recall where and in what context I talked with someone.
I don’t recall the specifics of the one article I read about this, but yes, I think being able to declare bankruptcy gives an out for at least some of the debt. I believe there was also some way that doing so protected Tesla but can’t recall exactly how that worked.
This just doesn’t seem like a “he’s just bad at running a company” situation. A company of Twitter’s age and maturity could have run itself for quite some time if Elon just let it continue on. He’s doing this intentionally for some self-serving reason.
Their failure to provide basic education is how they trap the next generation in the cult. Without a proper education, kids are trapped and it becomes extremely difficult to escape. It’s a feature, not a bug.
IIRC, causing its value to plummet is the easiest way for him to get out of this whole fiasco via bankruptcy (remember, he was basically forced into buying it). He played a stupid game and won a stupid prize and now he’s desperately trying to find a way out.
Yes people forget that. They also forget how people said Twitter was too difficult or “techie” for the average user.
That’s one app I really wanted to try to use but they don’t yet have a trial or monthly subscription option for iOS (supposed to release one). I didn’t want to pay $50 for it just yet.
I’m fine with Obsidian on desktop and I love that they have a fully-featured app, but the experience on mobile and iPad with the obsidian app is not the best UI experience. I also find it to be a bit buggy at times.
I’m finding https://sub.rehab/ to be the best resource for making the switch. If you haven’t submitted the link for this community, please do! Reddit is taking down a lot of the “here’s our community on Lemmy” posts so I’m just directing everyone to sub.rehab so they can find theirs communities for themselves. I think this central resource is the best way to do this.
I starting using Reddit in 2010 or so when I was going through health issues and was looking for information. I became very active on Reddit over the years, occasionally helping to mod a couple of communities. I am not a hugely "online" person, but I loved Reddit as a source of information and advice from actual real people. Particularly for those of us living with chronic health conditions, Reddit in particular was hugely important.
But I don't use Reddit anymore. The whole API fiasco was the last straw for me, and I also just didn't see it remaining a vibrant place full of valuable information. So I deleted my accounts and left. Haven't been back since.
