There's the option to login with caution, but what if I want to login with reckless abandon?

About a decade ago I had family business in the southern states. I found that gas was less than half the price there than in home state at the time. Probably still similar.

I assume that's why the article has a dateline in Georgia.

This makes so much more sense than the Windows behavior.

If you include movies, The Ring has just about the only accurate depiction of Seattle area weather I've seen. (No thunder)

Well, there was the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

Meanwhile less than a week ago it snowed where I am.
For the first time this year. Usually doesn't happen after January if at all.

Spring flowers have been randomly blooming since November or some such.

Systems are way out of whack, and it's really nice to see some some acknowledgement.

Ever since abandoning ship I've maintained a negative (1 star) review every time there is an update for the app. My review contained no swearing or anything else that I think would break a rule.

This morning I went to update and found my review gone, and trying to submit a new one fails with a "Server error". I was able to review other apps.

That cancer support line should buy this one also

So... A single point of failure?

The app in the screenshot is URLCheck, it is my "default browser" and allows me to see where a link is going and edit it or choose what to open it in.

It's showing that the ! link I tapped on the bottom of the screen got an "https:/" (one slash) put in front of it instead of being treated as a proper link to a community.

The same thing happens with @ links:

Note: this is a true story, it happened a couple hours ago.

We were at the skating rink. "Low" by Flo Rida was playing. Suddenly a little kid spun out in front of us. Fortunately she wasn't hurt when she hit the floor (she hit the floor), next thing we knew Shawty got low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low.

She was fine and got up on her own. Kids are rubber.

Generally explosions do in fact involve an object suddenly increasing in volume (with corresponding decrease in density)

Said objects typically become partially gaseous, but if the rest of it is porous then it's not unusual at all for that to increase in volume also.

Easy example: popcorn.

The links inside the linked post are relative links, such as xkcd which is a link to /c/xkcd@lemmy.world

Boost does not open them when tapped, flashing an error instead.

NewPipe at least already doesn't use the API, it scrapes the website.

... Which it just occurred to me might be one of the reasons Google is pushing that web integrity thing. Dang.
