The same world that produced the USDA Expenditures on Children by Families Consumer Expenditure Survey results, in which that amount is similar to other numbers. The US government may or may not have artificially inflated these numbers for intrinsic benefits. Depending on how you slice the numbers or what variables in that child’s life are at play, a child can easily cost more than $2700 a month, but millions of families also raise multiple children simultaneously on less money than that. In the same world where rent prices on 1-2 bedroom places can start upwards from $1500/month, what values do make sense? The answer to that depends on whether we’re talking about Musk or actual people.

As slimy and nasty as DeSantis is, this doesn’t sound crazy. Who thought permanent alimony was a good idea on the first place? So you divorce, ex-spouse pays you, and they never get to retire or quit their job because you want their money until you die? Why not allow compromises or change? Even paying child support isn’t permanent.

Its not just me right? Every driver in that video was doing something stupid and careless? Filmer, truck driver, car that said fuck it and kept driving after collision, entrance/exit lane cars that were fluttering brakes or driving off the white lines? This can’t be what highways in Texas are like all the time.

Test comment, please ignore

The toxic behaviour found in a lot of subreddits. Its an inevitable thing that it brews in communities or instances, but it’d be nice if Lemmy held itself above repeating the patterns of the lowest common denominedditor.

Happy four of month

It’s moderately good at in-line commenting functions and creating full function doc comments for the specific language / documentation format you need, but its code generation abilities are still not game-changing. Getting it to generate anything longer than a few helper functions is a test of patience.

For self-hosted hobby instances, expenses are likely all out of pocket. Instances amassing a large amount of users could potentially be driven to aggressive financially-driven changes of how their instance works, to maximize exposure to ad posts or sponsored pinned posts, for example. Donation-centric contribution helps alleviate that kind of seeping financial platform degradation.

I generally stick to Subscribed sorted by Top Hour, Top 6 Hours, Top 12 Hours, then do the same for All. I don’t get much out of sorting by Hot since I’m usually more interested to read fresh posts with less active engagement.

FX Fighter, Enemy Engaged: RAH-66 Comanche vs. KA-52 Hokum, Sim City 3000, Descent, and Carnivores 2. Just love the janky 3D, complicated keyboard bindings, goofy UIs, and crunchy textures.

Driving slow, leaving early and arriving early. I usually drive a bit below the speed limit, and always follow speed limit signs. It keeps people safe, even if their own impatience makes them tailgate eachother 10 cars in a row behind me. Some people like to be in a hurry when they drive and don’t know how to relax and drive calmly, I’ve never been sure why.

Gex.

Not until the tendency for the mainstream to gravitate to centralization is changed. Lemmy will need exponential growth to become large enough in userbase to be a mainstream consideration to use the federated replacement.

Lemmy adoption will help grow federation. Lemmy is fairly easy to conceptualize as an end-user, and aside from the bleeding-edge UI/backend bugs, it is easy to use. Common users are unlikely to prefer federation due to attachment to existing communities in non-federated social media, and the 1-more-step required to properly understand instances to get the most out of Lemmy. If certain Lemmy instances hold the majority of the weight of accounts and communities, it will lead to emergent centralization towards specific instances which isn’t good for federation. Persuading people who are used to centralized design not to immediately register for the largest Lemmy instance will be a long-standing conundrum for spreading out federation.
