I waddled onto the beach and stole found a computer to use.

Note: I’m moderating a handful of communities in more of a caretaker role. If you want to take one on, send me a message and I’ll share more info :)
I agree, rather I was surprised that threads grew big enough for people to be trying to migrate away from it.
In my area / friend circles, I don’t know anyone that continued to use Threads after the initial launch. However, there are people using Mastodon, Bluesky, and Twitter
The tooltip explanation for the handles should help, since that’s a very common point of confusion.
especially for more mainstream users looking for an alternative to X or Threads.
That many people use Facebook Threads? That sounds like saying “especially for more mainstream users looking for an alternative to Reddit or New Digg.”
I think it would be nice as an opt-in feature in the user settings
Lol, so it has come full circle then
Interestingly, mine was still enabled from the last time I must have toggled that setting.
If they do screw around, they could just train on everything without asking anyone
No problem :)
Even for the classes with excellent profs, sometimes I’d have to do the thing above.
If I had midterms or an important project in one class, I might have to skip the prereading / review for another class. After that, I’d get to class and not understand much of it. Then I’d catch up the best I could during weekends, reading breaks, or just during finals season.
Do you fall under the affected group? Maybe it’s only listed for those who do
Date
As of April 24 you’ll be feeding the Octocat unless you opt out
Current scope
The code locker’s revised policy applies to Copilot Free, Pro, and Pro+ customers, as of April 24. Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise users are exempt thanks to the terms of their contracts. Students and teachers who access Copilot will also be spared.
To opt out (link edited by me to make it clickable)
Those affected have the option to opt out in accordance with “established industry practices” – meaning according to US norms as opposed to European norms where opt-in is commonly required. To opt out, GitHub users should visit github.com/settings/copilot/features and disable “Allow GitHub to use my data for AI model training” under the Privacy heading.
I can’t tell if this is the original or bonehurtingjuice 😄
I want this image to show up under failed compilations. Like this
> Segmentation fault (core dumped)
edit: I think that’s a runtime error actually, instead
fatal error: iostream: No such file
Since voting history is visible here, I’ve considered tagging the users to call them out directly. I haven’t done that yet, because it might cause more toxicity than it would fix.
I also think of this
Its a pretty narrow scope

To me this reads like coverage for massage or other forms of non-curative pain relief, intended for those with chronic conditions that have exhausted all other options, or can’t get an appointment with a physiotherapist. I really don’t think it would be prescribed to treat the chronic condition.
Why would someone downvote this question. If you care about the difference, you shouldn’t downvote someone that’s wanting to learn…
As for the question: Nitter is a proxy service that lets people view content without giving Twitter anything, and avoiding any tracking, analytics, etc. Also some networks have blocked Twitter outright, and so they won’t see your content unless it is proxied.
Similar tech exists for other sites too.
You might be able to get away with using a web browser and an open source proxy/front end
Both factors are related, I couldn’t find the article I was looking for but this one touches on it too. There’s a section for cell phones specifically
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galápagos_syndrome
The term “Galápagos syndrome” was originally coined to refer to Japanese 3G mobile phones, which had developed a large number of specialized features that were widely adopted in the Japanese market, but were unsuccessful abroad.[6][7] While the original usage of the term was to describe highly advanced phones that were incompatible outside of Japanese networks, as the mobile phone industry underwent drastic changes globally, the term was used to emphasize the associated anxiety about how the development of Japanese mobile phones and those in the worldwide economy went along different paths.
When a technology advances quickly and gets adopted in the local region (ex. Japan), it can be difficult to change when other parts of the world move forward with a different standard.
The opposite can also happen, where a region is slow to change and then haphazardly moves forward when the benefits are proven elsewhere. American payment systems for example
It might be the thesis, but it definitely raises discussions on why some protests work and others don’t. It’s true that a one and done protest is easy to ignore. That doesn’t mean all protests are ineffective.
Historically, protests were effective when they were the signal that people were unhappy, and that if something didn’t change, people would take further action.
So I’m order for protests to be more effective:
Simplifying it down to “🔫 or nothing” is just as silly as the octopus protest, in that people need to find the right set of actions for each situation.
As for the US specifically, I don’t see what an immediate armed revolution would accomplish.
