I'd like to interject for a moment...
Yeah, layering the black border behind the letters for readabiltiy, then jamming the white letters together so tight you can't see the border between most of them is definitely a choice.
Awesome! I've been practicing that since I was 13, and let me tell ya, I'm very good at it.
I think a turtle neck would be up at location #1, as they generally come up to a bit under your chin.
Lol, lmao even. Welcome to the grind. There aren't many/any easy ways, it wildly varies based off your situation and skillset, and anyone who found any sort of "trick" isn't about to share it.
The "easiest" way online, assuming no particular skills, is probably mechanical turk work. Amazon has a system for it. mturk.com
You get paid barely anything, I mean like literal pennies, to go and do stuff like fill out surveys, categorize photos for AI training datasets, etc. Most people who make any halfway reasonable amount from it are using all sorts of scripts and stuff to maximize how much they can do in the least amount of time.
If you already have money, giving it to an investment banker to handle for you can be enough to live off of, but you need an absurd amount of money to start with in order to just live off dividends.
Fun fact: that lady has multiple nobel science prize winners in her family and lives on a national heritage site. Look her up on Wikipedia and it's pretty obvious why she doesn't want class war, lol.
Everyone can, technically. Votes are not private in any way and can't be for federation to function properly.
Check out lemvotes.org to check votes by account, by post, or by comment.
Also, piefed stopped doing the vote obsfucation thing a while back anyway. So just make a nsfw alt account.
TL;DR- Drunk and with no experience I lead a small group in pretty big parade.
I once led a small marching band in a parade while incredibly drunk, with a flagpole effectively attached to my cock (yeah, just rest the end against your belt, it's fine), and with only 45 minutes of training the weekend before. At the largest fife and drum muster in the US. I had no prior experience at anything remotely related. I had only been to one of the corp's meetings previously. Later that night I kissed my future wife for the first time.
I'm sure there's some wonderful psychoanalysis take away that I thought of the flag as an extension of my cock.
To this day I have no idea why they didn't get the actual marching band member boyfriend of one of the members to lead, because apparently I was pretty awful at it. It got some minor news coverage, so there's a chance a picture exists somewhere.
The point is that they do see all this, but it hasn't died yet, which means it's stronger than initially believed.
Tell me again how you've never become the subject matter expert on something simply because you were around when it was built.
Or had to overhaul a project due to a "post-live" requirements change a year later.
I write "good enough" code for me, so I don't want to take a can opener to my head when I inevitably get asked to change things later.
It also lets me be lazier, as 9 times out of 10 I can get most of my code from a previous project and I already know it front to back. I get to fuck about and still get complex stuff out fast enough to argue for a raise.
I feel like this is an incomplete setup to a joke where the eyes get bigger every panel until it's just the black void.
Someone gifted this to my wife and I after our successful IVF. Still haven't put our photos in it, and everytime I see it I giggle.
Miracle Love Baby sounds like some magical girl anime shit.
Honestly? That's rookie numbers.
Preface
I'm not trying to call out the mod action of removing my post from the comm so much as I'm calling out the complete lack of mod action leading to the comm becoming shit and having the current top post by scaled, hot, and active being a post that explicitly targets another lemmy user.
That out of the way... !mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world has clearly been slipping from the purpose of the comm for a while now. Most of the posts are actually infuriating and/or political. I understand that what qualifies as either of those can be different for different people, but I feel most of this shit clearly isn't mundane or simple enough to fall under the label of just mildly infuriating.
Here's some examples from the first page right now, sorted by scaled.
While I could have sworn the sidebar had a no politics rule, it doesn't at the time of me writing this up, so politics are arguably acceptable, although I personally feel these all clearly don't match the theme of the community, violating Rule 7.
Sidebar, and expanded rule 7
A few other posts have been made calling this out.
Mod harder and [META] What actually constitutes "mildly infuriating" content?
################################
Beyond all that mess, we have what was the final straw for me.
Rule 1 (and less so 5), and the current top post by scaled, hot, and active.
I cannot accept that a post to mildly infuriating that targets a specific user while not even removing their username is respectful, and I personally consider it harassment (while it may not violate rule 5 as there is no call to action). Removing the username is usually the bare minimum even in the fucking reddit brigading subs, for plausible deniability.
And regardless of whatever arguments can be had about interpretations of the community's specific rules, it's a dick move. Just block the guy. It reminds me of the god awful reddit dogpiling and brigading. I don't want any of that to come to lemmy.
So I reported it, then saw the recent posts asking mods for action that got no response. I then looked at the mods.
So I did something dumb as hell. Roughly an hour after I reported it, I made my own post (now removed from the comm). I find people who make call out posts about others, and the absentee mods allowing it, mildly infuriating. Yeah, childish as shit. What's done is done.
Modlog:
Removed for "doesn't fit community", but what do you folks think? Does it really not fit when the top post is what it is? Personally I think both should be gone, lest that comm descend further into shit.
Either way, now that I have this yell into the void out of me, I'm blocking the comm. Maybe I should have made my post in actually infuriating? (kidding)
That is a threat.
From some back to school flyer.
I have so many great memories from childhood vacations to Mystery Flesh Pit National Park. I cant believe the disaster happened all the way back in 2007.
At least someone has been collecting and documenting everything they can find from the old place: https://www.mysteryfleshpitnationalpark.com/
I still can't make it all the way through the disaster report.
Definitely a repost, but it fits the season
Do you seriously not know how to read? It's a reply to a comment that literally raises the question of where a turtleneck would go.
