Falling injuries would skyrocket if that door opened outward.

Did she happen to have the entire interview recorded? Would be nice to see how well she did.

In headlines, a comma is often used in place of “and”, so it should be read as “GOP Rep sued for falsely claiming man was Chiefs’ parade shooter and illegal alien”

I sync OneDrive to my Synology as well, another reason I’m okay with the “double” traffic is that my and my wife’s photos from our smartphones immediately get backed up to our Synology, even when we’re away from home.

Yep, the only thing better than encryption is for the data to not be on the device at all.

Who decided that’s how downvoting should be used? There is no official rulebook (especially on the fediverse), and etiquette is decided as a group, but there isn’t clear consensus on this.

The technical function of the downvote is to push the comment down far enough that people won’t see it. And so people will continue to use it as a way to communicate that they do not approve of the comment. And telling people to stop downvoting comments they don’t like is trying to enforce a rule they never agreed to.

I get your point is to have a neutral 3rd party help oversee the elections, but having the UN do it would be one of the fastest ways to spark a civil war. A lot of Trump supporters very much believe the UN is one of the key players trying to bring the new world order.

I have no control of my emotions when watching movies. Aladdin setting the genie free? 😭😭😭😭

Dog whistle literally just means coded language that an ordinary observer might not notice, but can be used to subtly identify other like-minded individuals.

Not all dog whistles are necessarily bad (depending on perspective). I’m an ex-mormon, and one dog whistle is a tapir. Without more information, it is too subtle to really know for certain whether I just like tapirs, or that I’m actually ex-mormon. But eventually, two ex-mormons might see enough signals to finally confide in one another.

A lot of the language you used is innocuous enough, and I didn’t feel like it was at the level @hoodatninja claimed, but it definitely had a “Reddit was becoming too woke” vibe to it, without actually coming out and outright saying it, aka, a dog whistle.

I’m trying not to attract Trump here.
