I’ve tried so many things from squinting to covering parts of the picture to adjusting the light in my room. I know this dress is blue and black because I’ve seen it while not being over exposed. I just can’t get my brain to recognize it any other way than gold and white in this picture.
Therein lies the problem. A lot of people already get decision fatigue trying to choose a server and don’t get past the sign up. Assuming that they are still willing to try and use a third party app, you get to layer finding a good app that works reliably on top of that and learning how to use the app which will be significantly different from the website. There comes a point where it’s not tech illiteracy but a lack of time and interest spending hours how to use a service that is much harder to get into than its competitors.
I know it’s hard for tech literate people to understand but choosing a server is daunting. Most people chose their email because it was linked to a service they were already familiar with like Google and Microsoft. There’s no familiarity with the Lemmy or mastodon instances and there are so many of them that people who already have trouble learning new technologies get to deal with decision fatigue on top of that. People like what is familiar and having a service that mostly works the same is still very confusing for them.
As the youngest child in my family, I was most definitely not “The favorite” but I was able to get away with the most.
I don’t know where this quote originated. I first heard it from my future SO and it goes something like this
“It is human nature to assume that once we have found the answer, we will find peace. Instead, one must find peace first, then the answer will come.”
Elon has no chance. Zuck is going to unhinge his lizard jaw and absorb his nutrients as easily as his monthly Impala feeding.
I think another lie is money = success. Money really just means security.
It would be more accurate if they showed a picture of Russell M Nelson. I grew up Mormon and if you didn’t pay your 10%, it didn’t matter how little you made. You could be barred from taking the sacrament, participating in blessings, and prevented from going to the temple.
Why does this comic hurt?

Biden attempted to do this through the method that he thought would be the most plausible to accomplish which was as an emergency action in response to the covid pandemic. The Supreme Court’s decision was based off of false evidence that the plaintiff would be materially harmed which is turning out to not be the case.
The other option which is less likely to happen would be to have the Secretary of Education forgive some of the debt. This is dubious because although the Secretary of Education does have the authority to forgive debts, the specific statute under the Higher Education act makes it clear that it is only with regard to the proper functioning of the Department of Education. I disagree with @MsPenguinette@lemmy.world since everything I have read on the matter makes it clear that the power of the purse, except in very limited circumstances, is in the hands of Congress. It makes no sense that Biden would have this broad power and not use it for his own political ends. Biden and his team know that going this route would be a Hail Mary.

When Windows started getting pre installed bloatware is around the time I made my full switch to Linux. When Samsung phones started doing the same, I switched away from them too. Srsly, I will become a luddite before I use any devices that force apps I don’t want on me. It’s abusive and shouldn’t be legal.
