What does launched missile even have to do with new features, like: "Beware, get to the shelter!", some twisted perception of reality I absolutely don't get 🤷

> be taken out back
Is that a euphemism for being put down? 🤔
@theorytoe
That's what I did too, but in several cases it was indeed a nice person who have just joined. So now I revisit those from time to time 😅

@PhilSchedia
Yeah, I have just read that up. Little weird to me as phobia doesn't mean you are scared of something as in scary movies, it most often means not wanting to be around something, not being comfortable with it. Certain type of people in this case.
But if you want these people around, but still want to mistreat them, there is a way more concerning underlying problem than if it was a phobia 😅

What? Arrest their own, close down their own safehouse they post this shit from? 🤭
@theorytoe @fuggy
@theorytoe @gray
Exactly! It's not always about feeling important (I think often the opposite is the case TBH), it's about not doing things that are uncomfortable to you. I am paranoid and when I see follow request from someone I have never interacted with and who has very few public posts, it feels suspicious to me. Sometimes I accept such follow request in a month when I see this person communicating with someone else — at least now I know it's a real person 🤷

Yep! Who would want to have a spare? Come on, stop making things up! Why powerbanks are popular? Those are just cool accessories. Battery cases? They are really well-designed!
And who would want to prolong their battery's life while not using the phone for extended periods by charging it to 60% and physically disconnecting it from the phone? I told you I have turned the damn thing off, I don't know why it's on now — probably calendar notification 🤪
@kaia
@apropos @kaia @phnt Yes, this was the argument they have always used: "No one needs those! Or are you too poor to buy these nice pair of wireless earbuds that sound worse than wired ones they give you for free on an airplane instead of getting a decent pair of wired ones? I hope you are not, or are you?" 😏

WTF is HomoMisia? 🤔

> retire a billionaire by the age of 30
…but still plans to keep doing taxi or work in fast food restaurant kitchen "just for fun" (or to maintain cover for his superhero job).
"Okay, some of my plans fell through, but hey! Not all of them" 😏
@RustyCrab
If you care about what's on the CDs/LPs it's not wise to tell so in the post 😏
Would you give you grandpa's collection to the one, who would put 90% of it in the dumpster straight away? It's common courtesy 🤷
@bot @thegreatape
@theorytoe @thegreatape Living in underground caves and having kids at the same time might also be not too comfy for most. But for some it might work 🤔
@ikezawa
Probably same holds true for Russian cute cat groups — first you tell them that cure cats should not say such nasty things as they have in their comic speech bubbles, then they respond with something about raping your cat and selling your kidneys to the highest bidder 🙀
@failedLyndonLaRouchite
The problem with this approach is usually this: you either treat your readers as the one who pays your bills or as cattle to show ads to, I'm not sure about NYT, but a lot of media outlets try to do both to make subscription affordable. Being the source of income AND the product they sell to their other customers at the same time makes you wonder — whether you should really trust them, maybe they are both bullshitting you and taking your money 🤔
@lutoma @brewsterkahle
@mjdxp Getting rid of Win32 software completely might have also been a good thing — the idea of running same apps on desktop, mobile, Xbox, etc wasn't bad at all. But of course the were indecisive and eventually killed off first their mobile platform and later UWP apps on others. And they have tried to "fix" the store which turned it into a complete clusterfuck, now it's a collection of poorly maintained UWP apps, ugly-looking Win32 ones and web apps that work in MS Chrome — worst of all worlds.
@mjdxp Cats sometimes just want your attention, also works for some humans — but I usually try to stay away from those 😹

Just in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
