Blocking ads is a security necessity, not piracy.
I’m sure you are trying to equate blocking of ads to cutting off their income stream or something, but it isn’t anything like that. It is just not displaying something that would be ignored anyway with the added bonus of not letting the advertisers collect metadata on you without your permission. Blocking ads is comparable to not looking at billboards, but even better!
Nobody likes a kiss ass!
They don’t buy out all the shares, just a controlling interest or whatever they call it.
More and more sites are only partially loading the reader function info so that it cuts out at the same place as the preview part.
Used to be very helpful though!
Would teach: Apathy
Why? Apathy
The expectation that someone else will purchase it at a price it is being offered at.
Which is a hilarious extrapolation since all shares being offered at the same time (total market cap) would cause the ‘value’ to dive bomb.
If they are magically forbidden to enter without permission, but also don’t know every language or phrasing of ‘come on in’, then there is a magical way to know intent without needing to hear all the words.
Otherwise they wouldn’t be able to work with nods and hand motions from people who cannot speak, shrugs and grunts from drunk college students, etc.
I’m totally buying for the whole office!

Plus they jack up the default menu prices so the only way to get a comparative price to what existed before the ‘discounts’ is to use the app and be engaged.
This is a common social media trend so it shouldn’t be surprising that it happens on lemmy too.
Most of the time when I see a seemingly innocuous comment being downvoted checking the user history shows they are actually meaning it in a negative way or pregending to the sarcastic. But yeah, it sucks when it is just a misunderstanding as that certainly happens too.
Sometimes for fun when I get the occasional comment that gets misinderstood I slap on an edit pointing that out fully expecting more downvotes, but sometimes it turns around. Always worth it.
It is a necessity when the vampires keep trying to get in!
Yes, that would be cheating.
If the vampire knows it is intended to be a no then it doesn’t matter. The person could never finish it as long as the vampire knows the real answer is no despite the words being stated not matching up.
No. It is magic so they would not be able to enter partway through an answer as doing so would make it clear that the vampire knew it was really a no.
You should be ashamed of your ruthless reign of terror against plants, harvested by the billions and modified by humans in ways that no longer resemble their ancestors.
No, there are a number of women (and men) who get mad because someone didn’t read their mind about what they wanted. It only becomes shitty when people assume it applies to everyone of one gender.
Well, they don’t spend all of their time stepping all over other people to amass wealth because they are well rounded folks who care about other people. They do it because they have fragile egos.
That defeats the purpose of doing it in real time as it would introduce a delay.
Regular old live broadcast closed captioning is pretty much ‘good enough’ and that is the standard I’m comparing to.
Actual subtitles created ahead of time should be perfect because they have the time to double check.
The thing with sources is that sometimes it is hard to know how reliable they are, and sometimes they do let you down.
