When I accidentally blocked an instance, any comment from a user on that instance would be replaced by a message like “you have blocked this instance and so will not see this comment.” I don’t know if that’s a feature of my client, Connect, or of lemmy itself.

That’s a fascinating way to spell… Presumably “quarterback”?

I like “growing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional.”

Obviously that’s just restating your comment and I’m not trying to diminish your version in any way. This is just the way I heard it and I wanted to share.

That sounds odd.

edit: Also, while I’d love for lemmy to get huge, it’s cool that our community allows for recognition of people with whom I’ve interacted previously.

Thank you for the information!

Also, I infer from your response that you also remember that part of Red Dwarf, which is awesome.

Maybe.

I’m only familiar with the term “BSc” from Red Dwarf, wherein it’s eventually revealed to mean “bronze swimming certificate”; however, from the context of the joke in the novel (and I think the show, don’t remember for sure), I assume it has some more impressive meaning in other uses.

Given the origins of that series, I was guessing British, but that doesn’t limit it much. My cultural ignorance is preventing me from forming a meaningful theory.

edit: I’m sorry, I thought this was a response to another comment I made, making my response 100% irrelevant. Please feel free to disregard.

edit 2: Though I guess the last line of my unedited comment still applies.

So where do you work?

edit: Though, based on some of the terms you used and the fact that you got a favorable employment agreement, I doubt it’s a country that would consider me.

I want to upvote this, but … Why did you have to shorten “relatives”?

Sadly, DNS filtering does nothing for YouTube ads as said ads are hosted on the same servers as actual videos.

Rest sounds good.

But definitely not the moon.

They didn’t, they’re just in the Delaware/Maryland/Virginia area.

I’m gonna go with wow.

In my experience, kanban and agile might technically prevent an employee from doing nothing, but they also might very well facilitate someone doing nothing productive.

I mentioned in another comment, but in this case I think she’s just old, tired and cuddly. I’m the only one home today, so I guess she defaulted to me (in fact, in this picture the dog is also in my lap), but if anyone else is in the house and has a blanket, good luck keeping her away. Even if you’re a stranger to her.

I think I need to take her to the vet anyway. She has sinus issues. Often, I’ll walk into a room and think I’m alone, only to realize she’s also there because I can hear her breathing (which is so loud that sometimes I think it’s my dog, who’s a gazillion times her size). One risk of letting her cuddle is her rather dramatic sneezes, which will douse you. I relatively recently moved a long distance with her and hoped that it would help, but it made no difference. Poor kitty.

Her name is Maze, by the way. I did some thinking and I believe I adopted her as a kitten 13-14 years ago. Same with Hex, whom I also posted in this community recently.

I’ll look into a heating pad. Thank you for the recommendation.

So was I, to be fair.

I think she’s just old. I don’t remember exactly what year I adopted her, but it’s been well over a decade. These days she’ll hop on any lap and assume this position, especially if said lap has a blanket on.

I have no opinion to express, but it’s clear he’s not wearing hockey pads.

edit: It does bring up a memory for me, though.

Same for this guy! Well, about the latter. I don’t know his feelings on the former.

Ah, sorry. I thought we were talking about general functionality, not specific to the browser or tab functionality. Thanks for following up!
