Whilst your particular experience may not be what the study found, it does not in fact invalidate the study.

Mint (cinnamon) is really nice, has a Windows like look and feel. Stable and friendly 👍

I really liked the first one, loved the books… Trying to avoid too much hype, I like to go in a bit “naive”. Not too many trailers, or theories etc…

Have a low limit on your card, for big purchases that you want to use your CC for, just over load it up to the required amount.

e.g. I have my limit set to $500…if I want to buy a new bed that is $2500, I just add the extra money to the CC from my online banking after I decide which particular one I want and know how much it will cost.

It is not a perfect system, but it does limit my potential loss to the limit of my CC.

I was using boost for Reddit, they have announced that they are porting it to Lemmy…so I’ll stick with Jerboa until Boost is released.

My pet theory… Though I don’t believe it.

Musk and u/spez are playing 4-dimensional chess. The end goal is to increase freedom and user choice. By slowly destroying their respective platforms, people are driven to the fediverse, the idea of centralised platforms is tainted, power is shifted back to the user and long term everyone is better off.

It is a nice thought experiment…

I loved the build up in the beginning, the chains, all the guards looking nervously at this big brute. Then he walks in to the cell and gets absolutely destroyed by Holga.

She clearly rolled a 20 on her kick him in the knees attack, from that point on the encounter is over. Also Edgin calmly discussing the poor choice he made by touching her potato.

I also thought it was very well done, bringing the potato gag back at the end of the movie.

That is awesome… Slightly terrible, but awesome.
