A worthwhile thing to keep in mind whether it’s for tea, supplements, or whatever, is that medication is based on things that were observed from “natural” sources.

For example, willow bark was/is/has been used for pain and inflammation. It also contains salicin which is similar to acetysalicylic acid, which you’ll know better as aspirin.

Does that mean all the things people say do a thing work? Not at all. Do some of them have varying degrees of effect of some percentage of people? Yes.

You are technically correct

The best kind of correct

So more Gmail than G+

Might Bluesky be doing the same?

This is inaccurate

Some of us aren’t under 40

In fairness, Gmail had a similar invite system when it launched and that’s been way more successful than G+

Have you considered that plenty of people probably find your advice stupid and condescending regardless of saying the word “airpod”?

Or that the word airpod was also unnecessary since you already said headphones?

Apple defaultism is pretty dumb on its own, but it’s hardly the biggest problem with your comment.

I don’t disagree. I think if it’s an issue the users have the power to resolve it

Right, which is why I put the line after that in

I don’t get it either. Defederation is a tool just like banning or spam prevention. If it’s unused it’s pointless to have.

But you don’t ban everyone for a single offense just like to don’t defederate lightly. If you do then people will move elsewhere and the problem resolves itself

Lot of comments here with single down votes. I wonder how salty op is

Is it requiring a cell for being the 2fa piece? I don’t use GitHub but I’d be surprised if they did. There’s been plenty of options for a while now. Email, authenticators, u2f keys. You should be able to enable 2fa that will use the same data you’re using to access GitHub.

Nah. I’ve had a domain registered with them for years and I just got the email too

prosthetics and bionics are taking leaps and bounds

Heh

Thanks for picking up where the summary dropped the ball

In all fairness that actress showed up fairly often for playing a dead character

And if a home invader with commercially available arms so decided it’s the end of your family. That’s how scale works.

But you don’t give in to a bully to avoid violence. That’s how you get more people/countries bullied.

This is not intended as a threat of violence. This is an analogy to make a point that should be obvious

My quote, not theirs. Also Russia is a bully. Similar to the kind that takes lunch money, but on a much larger scale

Not more powerful, just more willing to do whatever to get what they want.

If good people always lose then why do we still have good people? Why do good acts still occur?

You’ve got an important word there. Scale.

Countries aren’t people but they’re made up of them. It wouldn’t take nuclear weapons to annihilate your household.

Russia has invaded Ukraine’s home and tried to lay claim. Now you’re suggesting they give up what was taken from them to satisfy your desire for peace.

The analogy the other person used is fair. In another analogy Russia is nothing more than a bully. We’ve long moved past the time where the advice we give is to just give the bully your money so they don’t beat you up and take it anyway.
