But the fact that a lot of editors fight about such issues means that it ends up being somewhat neutral, no?

Memes only matter if you’re 14, unfortunately. Based on the number of comments and users, I’d say lemmyworld is the default.

Using olive oil for sunbathing sounds like some sort of slow oven roast recipe.

The next month or so will be the true test. Monthly stats up till now look good, but that’s because there was an active push factor (most of the reddit exodus happened in the last month).

Well, Threads is at least aiming to do that and integrate with Mastodon, but the group mind has decided that this is bad.

I’m not part of that group mind, but I’m cynical that they will federate. From a business standpoint it doesn’t benefit them, so I’m betting it’s just a buzzword they’re using.

Apple’s philosophy has always been to make things as easy as possible for users, but only if the users agree to pay through the nose.

Good for you. Some of these board members are retirees who try and get a sense of power from policing rules unnecessarily. I hope I have better things to do with my time when I get old.

Also known as “It’s really leather, I promise.”

Oh it was.

We used to look up to our teachers as role models. It is sad what the education system has become.

Thank you, you’re too kind.

“If yor employees are trying to help you, let them.” Sounds like common sense, but it seems like MBAs aren’t being taught common sense…

Thank you. I tried to make it short and interesting. I’ve got more stories, maybe I should share those too.

Why would a teacher ban students from going to the bathroom? That’s a normal bodily function. What do they expect the kid to do?

Heck yeah! https://www.theguardian.com/education/2017/jun/22/teenage-boys-wear-skirts-to-school-protest-no-shorts-uniform-policy?

I always hated that female attire showed more skin than male attire. It made me so self-conscious as a teenager.
