Did he upgrade the head and handle? If so, it’s still your grandpa’s axe. Did you upgrade the axe? It might now be an axe of your own making. If “same” is extended not just to refer to the materials, but refers to fourth-dimensional quantum axe states, the axe stops being your grandpas axe the moment your grandpa isn’t chopping with it, but becomes his axe any time he returns to use it.

As slimy and nasty as DeSantis is, this doesn’t sound crazy. Who thought permanent alimony was a good idea on the first place? So you divorce, ex-spouse pays you, and they never get to retire or quit their job because you want their money until you die? Why not allow compromises or change? Even paying child support isn’t permanent.

Test comment, please ignore

The toxic behaviour found in a lot of subreddits. Its an inevitable thing that it brews in communities or instances, but it’d be nice if Lemmy held itself above repeating the patterns of the lowest common denominedditor.

Happy four of month

I generally stick to Subscribed sorted by Top Hour, Top 6 Hours, Top 12 Hours, then do the same for All. I don’t get much out of sorting by Hot since I’m usually more interested to read fresh posts with less active engagement.

Driving slow, leaving early and arriving early. I usually drive a bit below the speed limit, and always follow speed limit signs. It keeps people safe, even if their own impatience makes them tailgate eachother 10 cars in a row behind me. Some people like to be in a hurry when they drive and don’t know how to relax and drive calmly, I’ve never been sure why.

Gex.

Lemmy adoption will help grow federation. Lemmy is fairly easy to conceptualize as an end-user, and aside from the bleeding-edge UI/backend bugs, it is easy to use. Common users are unlikely to prefer federation due to attachment to existing communities in non-federated social media, and the 1-more-step required to properly understand instances to get the most out of Lemmy. If certain Lemmy instances hold the majority of the weight of accounts and communities, it will lead to emergent centralization towards specific instances which isn’t good for federation. Persuading people who are used to centralized design not to immediately register for the largest Lemmy instance will be a long-standing conundrum for spreading out federation.
