I was messaging a guy on Grindr, and he asked if he could buy my socks — ie the socks that I had been wearing all day. I obliged. I made (iirc) 30$ 😎

I’m struggling to understand why you think the title is misleading. Could you elaborate on your rationale to help me understand? 🙂

Do you perhaps have an alternative title that you would suggest? Would you be satisfied by something like, for example, “Pornhub saw a 22.4% increase in Linux traffic (from [e.g.] 5% to ~6%) over 2025”?

I think this post violates Rule 1 (I don’t think it counts as a fact).

All + Active and Subscriptions + Scaled

There is already the Conservapedia doing the same thing. […]

Interestingly, the site is timing out for me right now ^[1], but I’ve been able to find some interesting archived information: for example, they have a page titled “Conservapedia:How Conservapedia Differs from Wikipedia” ^[2]. To say the least, I take issue with some of their rationale.

I don’t understand what exact problem Grokipedia ^[1] is even trying to solve.

Are you able to read the alt-text that I wrote for it?

Are you looking for something for everyday wear, or something more rugged/functional?

Ima guess it’s my references sections ^[1].

TikTok To Be Sold To Trump’s Right Wing Billionaire Buddies And Converted Into A Propaganda Mill ^[1.1]

The title feels misinformative to me given, the following from the article:

[…] Trump insiders claim to be zeroing in on a deal that would sell 80% of TikTok’s U.S. assets to […] ^[1.2]

To me, the title infers that TikTok is being sold with certainty, whereas the content of the article sates that a deal has yet to even be reached.

[…]People don’t care WHO or what does it, they themselves just don’t want to.

Then don’t? Are you arguing that there doesn’t exist an alternative that doesn’t require one to self-checkout?

Be all that as it may, I don’t see it as a justification for, imo, rude behavior towards others — in particular employees who, I would presume, have little control over the actions required of them while they are working.

This is ironically an inevitable consequence of Wikipedia’s centralization undermining its strategic objective of making knowledge free and accessible to all. […]

Perhaps you’d be interested ^[1] in Ibis ^[2]?

Do you mind referencing some of the exceptions that you have in mind to the aforementioned rule?

I just try to keep the mnemonic “I before E except after C” ^[1] in my brain.

recieve vs. receive

Are you okay with a self-hosted solution? If so, you could, for example, self-host FreshRSS ^[1], and then use it to scrape a feed using XPath ^[2]. I can elaborate further on the method if you are interested.

Who’s the bottom left of the eastern side?

[…] Me: “I don’t work here”

This gives me big “ok boomer” vibes. Instead of this, imo, snarky response, could you not simply politely say that you prefer a human cashier?

Remember the human.

Thank you for the recommendation 😊
