Just tell him respectfully, sometime.

As a parent, myself:

• I totally don’t mind if my kids tell me they can hear me. I appreciate knowing our communication lines are open.
• I am still going to continue having (probably still loud) sex in the house. Unless my kids fully paying a roommate’s share of the costs to run the home, they’re still kids, not roommates.
• I’ll probably buy the kid some nice noise suppressing audio headset as a shopping surprise, sometime soon.

There’s been some great ideas here, but I like yours the best.

Bill Burr complaining about being forced to be the pope would be amazing.

“I’m not going to lead mass. Leading mass is Charlie Work!”

Huh. Pope Joan?

Does anyone have any clue?

My best guess would be some relatively passive notification stealing focus.

As reddeadhead mentioned, there’s specific “don’t steal focus” settings. I’ve had good luck with them.

Great analogy.

I think it’s fair to tweak it and leave that second library with full accountability for the lack of desirability.

Domain names don’t start out undesirable, they build their reputation from the content and users.

So it’s like building a second library in a perfectly nice spot, and having that library attract people who dump pollution into the surrounding area, making it undesirable.

I don’t know enough about it to confidently say they’re going to lose all their money

It happened to my relative. They didn’t lose everything, but they lost enough that they’re shopping for a mobile home for retirement, when they previously could have bought a small house.

Plausible explanation.

This was really helpful. Thank you.

I remember those days, as well!

I’m with you.

Thankfully, corporate bullahit isn’t the only way to create a discovery algorithm.

I expect that we will have a diverse set of discovery algorithms available to opt into here, in a few years.

Thank you! You’re doing Lliira’s work!

Ooh, neat.

I always wonder about the people who drop off just before finishing the game.

That’s me. It used to be common for games to have a sharp ramp up in challenge at the end boss, and I often don’t have the time to get through that.

So I habitatually abandon games when I feel close to the end, and I watch the ending on a stream, instead of playing it.

I realize that minimal research could tell me which games are which, but even less research finds me a decent stream of the game ending.

Nothing anotger fireball won’t solve…

the low rollers having been filtered out by dart traps, lucky kobolds, etc.

True. That’s mage survivor bias, right there.

A manufacturer phone pre-installed with LineageOS would be awesome.

Thanks!

Jeff Bezos never smashed the window on my car to steal my speakers,

True.

he doesnt come out vandalising public transport or parks and he isnt the reason my wife doesnt feel safe walking around at night.

If we could even comprehend the scale of his unpaid taxes, or their impact on our parks, we might discuss this at length…

Is also very very queer tho JSYK

That could be our new Lemmy slogan.
