He’s too vain to wear spectacles so he squints. Combined with the way he screws his face up like a child it makes his facial features look smaller.

Yes, it’s hard to provide screenshots because without commenting I can’t tell if a Post is locked.

I have to say I’ve never seen that and don’t realise it should be there. I only tend to find out when I try to comment.

Thank you 😃

I like that !

Would also make a good wallpaper with some blank space at the top.

I do too. They seemed like a good person. There were some mistakes but everyone makes them

Do you mean an option to hide the tab bar at the bottom of the screen?

It’s because the im isn’t a prefix but part of the word. (It was originally spelt empeche)

It is, check the OED.

And @evgiz hasn’t posted in weeks. I hope everything is okay.

In non technical terms, some operating systems (eg iOS) will vouch that you are human. Which bypasses the need to click on things.

Look up Egg Theory. It will blow your mind.

Putting aside that this use case doesn’t meet the five requisites for block chain use, the fediverse in general and Lemmy is already struggling with too much data being stored and moved.

The answer is: do a job you like and do the things you like. I’m due to retire in ten years and won’t be doing so. I won’t work as much but I will work

It’s easier in some countries than others. But the key is not wasting time on things that you feel pressured to do because of societal norms or because you’re too lazy to do anything different.

There we go, a strong opinion.

It was actually much easier than I expected. I used to smoke 40 a day about 30 years ago . One day I just decided to give up. The first few days aren’t that bad, you will get cravings but I found the best thing to do was distract yourself. Giving up while I was busy at work was a good way to distract my brain. After a few days the cravings get less and less.

What is harder is months down the line when you accidentally catch secondhand smoke. I couldn’t help but think “I’ve given up for so long, just one wouldn’t hurt”

It must be easier nowadays because fewer people smoke (in most countries) but back then it was common to see people light up when they left buildings.

1. Some people prefer pages to scrolling (it’s amazing the strength of opinion about this for either point of view)
2. Advertisements are charged per impression. So each page counts as a new impression
3. Be grateful websites no longer auto scroll web pages
4. Some things lend themselves to page by page. For example very long articles (this is why books replaced scrolls)
5. Be grateful that websites stopped animating page turns etc
6. Sometimes web developers don’t care and just use a bought in package

It depends also on what type of business. For example in Finance a consumer is a real person who buys/borrows uses something but a customer is a general term for a person, business, organisation or partnership that buys goods or services.

For example, I might have an account at XYZ Bank and so might a company. We are both customers of XYZ Bank but I am a consumer and the company isn’t.

[to complicate things small businesses might class as consumers in some jurisdictions]
