It’d be lovely if you could just see the hexbear powerusers somewhere convenient and mass block.
If you go to our megathread, most of the people tagged in the first comment are our most active users.
idk if there’s a tool to mass block them, seems like it would be a pain to go through them all but you do you.

I think individual blocking of entire lemmy instances is a planned feature, just got to wait for it.
I understand this conceptually, but there’s also a gremlin in my brain that wants me to make every line as short as possible.

You may have resources available to you that you’re not even aware of.
How’s your credit? My credit card is basically my emergency fund - it’s not the best plan but it’s way better than getting surprised and having to take an emergency loan. If you’re currently spending about as much as you make, you can build your credit by putting things on the card and paying it back from your bank account and slowly extend that limit or eventually open up a second account - just don’t fall into the trap of spending more than you make, or you’ll wake up one day exactly where you are now but with debt.
Are you using social services? Only something like a third of people who qualify for food stamps in America actually use them, depending on the state/country you’re in you could be a couple government forms away from getting a few hundred for groceries every month, and if you put in the effort to use it that’s as good as money in your account. There’s also stuff like food banks - the one I volunteer at doesn’t do anything to verify the identities or qualifications of whoever comes by, you’ll just get handed a box or a couple bags with cereal and canned goods and shit.
Is it possible to upgrade your employment situation? Search for jobs even if you already have one - you’re not on the hook until you sign the piece of paper, and you don’t owe your current workplace a two weeks’ notice either so tell them your availability is “immediate”. A lot of technical jobs especially are willing to train and just want someone with a clean background who will show up on time, and depending on your already-existing education/certifications you might be able to do contract work using a site like field nation to get gigs.
Is climate change an American plot to change Russian weather so that they will finally lose a land war?
I have this idea to buy a .su domain and host my own email addy. I’m sure all the tools to do so exist on Linux but I haven’t taken the time to really research it yet.

I feel the same way. I think it’s just because the TNG films wanted to turn Picard into Kirk and frankly Patrick Stewart can’t carry an action scene (neither can any of the rest of the TNG crew tbh). The TNG cast would have been perfect to do a plot about space whales or a dangerous anomaly flying towards Earth, but they kept trying to do The Wrath of Khan instead.
Also a pox on everyone who says that Motion Picture or The Search for Spock are bad.
I’m gonna get in big trouble with work I’m not supposed to make copies of those.
I’m thinking of Picard being a cyborg now (before everybody just agreed not to talk about it), but I’d have to rewatch disco to get a more specific example and I’m not doing that. It’s a feeling I have that I admittedly could be off base on.
I don’t think NASA sells their research, pretty much anyone can take it and make their own variant. So it’ll probably be an aviation startup that will try to run it like a tech company, collect a billion dollars and deliver vaporware (or if we’re lucky, something extremely dangerous like the oceangate sub) before eventually going bankrupt.
This is the focus of the Sustainable Flight Demonstrator, so it’s not like NASA isn’t working on that problem too for what it’s worth.
It’s interesting because it kind of highlights how a lot people perceive Star Trek technobabble (or at least, the pop-cultural understanding they have of it) as being incoherent nonsense when a lot of the shows have put in a lot of effort into making it not that. One of the most annoying things about the newer Treks is that apparently the writers at CBS started believing it too, causing them to take less care with technobabble in those shows and actually writing a bunch of nonsense.
If it’s just a newsletter I would set up a mailbox filter that just sends all of their mail to the trash. GMail makes this pretty easy (highlight a spam message, select “filter messages like these” from the top menu), but idk how to do it on other mail servers.
75F basically all the time, cooling only no heating. I also always turn it off at night and open all the windows/vice versa in the morning to save energy. I’m not a dad but this is totally a dad thing that I started doing when I turned 30.
This is in the southwestern US.
