This is the reality of what sapir-whorf was guessing at. The way it’s defined is incorrect IIRC, but the real heart of it I think stemmed from this kind of reality of distinction.

The fact people think it’s normal and don’t realize it’s not, especially once they get older simply being unwilling to think otherwise…yeah.

Yeah, I use Authentik currently and the main reason is simplicity of having it with LDAP. But I’ve considered running something else backed by FreeIPA to get more compatibility for LDAP. I feel like I have to fight to get something to work with it.

But it has some high overhead for sure.

I keep wondering if you could get him to do something truly stupid to himself this way.

Despite it being their software, they don’t maintain this part. It’d be like saying Firefox is responsible for preventing fake bank websites from existing (this is ignoring how they also ship malware protection lists anymore to try and help). The Discover app is just a client where a distro supplies the software lists. On OpenSUSE it browses SUSE (and Flathub, if you add it.)

On Ubuntu it browses Ubuntu’s APT repos and snap.

You can easily alter what repos the software uses too, it’s just using whatever the distribution has configured it to use in conf files and repo lists.

Oh for sure. It’s still only in that like 5% range but what I meant was folks treat it like it’s new and like…nah.

I hate it. I haven’t run into anyone directly doubting my ADHD at all lately, but as a kid I definitely faced that stigma from some other kids saying it’s “fake”, and I think one of the teachers even said it.

I’m well aware, I run an instance and know it’s in the DB. But on my instance I’d have to trawl the database for it instead of getting a nice UI look. That’s what I meant.

Is that a fork? Or just the newest update? The instance I run doesn’t have that.

That feels gross, like if I could see poll voters on Mastodon.

Makes it feel like Lemmy was written by some insecure folks.

Can this admin see these votes without diving through the database because he’s an insecure douchebag? Like Mastodon only shows some things even to admins without being gross and unethical by digging into the database directly.

Jesus I thought assumptions about others was more a thing of Reddit, not here. The user you’re talking about simply stated they felt violated heavily by such, not that they’d inflict violence specifically.

My apartment was burglarized over a decade ago and I’m only just now getting over the trauma of it mostly. I had nightmares for years about coming home and my front door being wide open, and everything being gone. I lost sleep waking up repeatedly from these nightmares.

It’s easy to point fingers when you haven’t been traumatized by an event yourself. Have an ounce of fucking empathy here. Neither that person nor I want to hurt folks at all, and I absolutely wouldn’t be able to hurt someone who broke into my place even if I was home besides yelling and trying to scare them off by making a loud racket. But that doesn’t mean we weren’t violated in some fashion.

Like the other commenter in the thread about his wife elbowing a pickpocket, that’s not actually going to hurt or damage anyone but it’ll startle the hell out of them to run off. It’s not like she beat him or made him bleed, at worst he got a bruise for a couple hours.

Anyway great to know more folks give zero shits about mental health clearly.

I think the bigger difference is “I don’t believe but I also don’t think others are wrong” is a kind of mentality often. I think that and people are used to seeing self-proclaimed atheists being assholes loudly and go “well I’m not that”. Atheism got fucked over by people who just want to be dicks to religious folks.

It explains so much when it’s played up so heavily in talk shows, despite the reality always having been very minor. Honestly I didn’t realize me being gay was that much of a minority either. I kind of wish ADHD had been one in the list; if I remember the reality is like no more than 3-5% of the population but people assume it’s over diagnosed as hell and like…not really. Maybe when there was the initial “rush” of sorts for parents during the 90’s because of it seeming to help “unruly” kids, often just meaning imaginative or creative. In my case my parents didn’t even know until my kindergarten teacher told them I should get evaluated, and yep.

One of the Bioware devs posted that something like 92% of players were heavily to entirely Paragon despite them putting a lot of effort into Renegade content. People want to care about others, even virtual folks. You get invested.
