He might be legally pseudo protected by twitch having minimum age requirements.

Unless it was a few very specific US states, this isn’t really relevant. The minimum age to sign up for an account on Twitch is 13.

Let me know how your back feels in the morning

The bear has a circle beard. A goatee is traditionally only the hair under your chin, but the definition is pretty loose nowadays.

Just an fyi, but you responded to your own post instead of user @kovukono@pawb.social comment.

I tagged them so they should have a reason to check back manually if they see the notification!

This excerpt from the linked Wikipedia article for the name abstractly summarizes it nicely.

It reached the rank of the sixth most popular name for girls in the United States in 1912 and maintained that popularity through 1920, but then its popularity dropped quickly afterward.[2]

The name Mildred was very common about a hundred years ago, but never really at any other point since. If you see the name Mildred without seeing the person in question your first thoughts will be that they are extremely old. That’s really about it.

Maybe stop stirring the pot? At this point it really just seems like you’re the problem here with how petty and antagonistic you’re being.

I’ve never had the flavored ones, but not really. It’s actually a very smooth drink. It’s a neutral spirit made from sweet potato so it tastes kind of like vodka, but without the bite because it’s half the alcohol content.

on a large scale doesn’t this mostly protect people from dangerous debts?

Not really. It just ends up with lenders offering far more predatory interest rates, which worsens the situation for the debtor. The system is set up in such a way that you can spiral pretty hard with a single misstep.

There’s a difference between wanting to have good credit so that you can benefit from a garbage system and wanting that system to exist in the first place.

I’ve recently started wondering how many people are here because they’re too toxic for regular social media rather than because they want to be here.

This has largely been my operating assumption as well since day one when I came over during the Reddit API lockdown. I was fairly active on a NSFW alt up until recently and I’ve actually seen dozens of comments from new users mentioning that the only reason they were here on Lemmy was because they were banned from Reddit and had no other viable options. They were always an asshole to the posters and the reality is that with a lower population of users is that there aren’t enough other voices to drown out these people yet and you end up with a feedback loop of toxicity.

Thank you. I almost typed out a similar comment, but deleted it.

Although this meme is just supposed to be “thing, bigger thing” maybe half the time I see it it’s someone trying to say “thing, objectively better thing” and it just feels really gross. I hate most memes that are just stolen social media posts of people living their lives honestly.

I get it. I do standard deadlifts first thing on my back day because I don’t like fatiguing my posterior chain on leg day, but it definitely causes grip problems by the end of my workout. Maybe it’s just me, but you’ll probably be lifting lower weights typically with an RDL which may be where the comments are coming from.

I’m going to disregard the original comment because a lot of factors are going into the impressiveness and everyone’s body is different, but you can’t really compare your flat bench progression with your deadweight lifts accurately to gauge progress. Either way, progress is progress and congrats on your gains friend!

I guess I’m going to stop saying “You’re welcome” to the self checkout when it thanks me 🥲 I just didn’t want to be the first to go when the robot uprising happens.

I am very surprised that there is only one legitimate reference to the original coining of these terms from the beginning of the French Revolution so far in this thread asking what these terms mean.

Just to add to what Daemon provided in the post, aside from hitting the comment button you can also hit the ‘view source’ option from the comment drop-down menu in Jerboa and it will show deleted and mod/admin removed comments as well in plain text.

Not sure if this is intended behavior or not as I actually appreciate the ability to do so. It helps to not lose context in conversations with deleted/removed material while still providing a small barrier to a casual observer.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who found the world resets frustrating. I agree that the world is interesting and atmospheric, but as someone who enjoys thoroughly exploring, the resets just kept ruining my immersion into the world. Maybe one day I’ll go back to the game.

The person who set that up definitely knew what they were doing.

I always hate any viral math post for the simple reason that it gives me PTSD flashbacks to my Real Analysis classes.

The blog post is fine, but could definitely be condensed quite a bit across the board and still effectively make the same points would be my only critique.

At it core Mathematics is the language and practices used in order to communicate numbers to one another and it’s always nice to have someone reasonably argue that any ambiguity of communication means that you’re not communicating effectively.
