Ooh, I'd never heard of nor seen these before, thanks!

Who were they there?

The move — the latest escalation of Gov. Gavin Newsom’s pressure campaign on cities to help solve the housing crisis — means Norwalk could lose eligibility for state housing and homelessness grants, and be forced to approve affordable housing projects even if they conflict with city zoning.

I'm confused, how would they fund the housing projects they may be compelled to approve without the grants, given that some of the contention in all of this is an insufficient provision of resources?

What are they?

[–] ALostInquirer@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

I find that it at least got easier after I started to think about this as I created things.

How so? Also for what it's worth, I'm not expecting answers, but some ideas or guidance, whether from others' approaches or what they've come across in others' practice.

What about ON? Symbiotic/commensalist relationship of letting the beetle rest around your eyes for illusion of wondrous eyelashes?

Are the chokers somewhat adjustable to fit different size necks? Do you have any dislike or fear of giraffes? If yes and no, you might look into getting some giraffe dolls that are firm enough to basically wear and display the chokers and ease your selection.

You could even slightly decorate the giraffes to help in sorting them, supposing the wearing of chokers wasn't enough for your tastes.

 

Seems likely big businesses would be obvious targets for tons of unwanted phone calls, so how do they deal with this?

 

Technically, I have some online activity I could try to refer to for work purposes, but it would mean sharing content tied to usernames/profiles I think of more as casual and personal. I could delete those profiles and move the relevant work to usernames/profiles I'm willing to share, but then I'm less likely to use those as much for portfolio building as I wouldn't want to contribute/do things online under a more public-facing profile, or link my personal ones to said profile.

Any which way I think about it involves crossing private/public streams I'd prefer to keep uncrossed, but I'm thinking I may be overlooking some compromises that could work, so what might those be?

Also open to recommendations for similar diagnostic software for other data storage media like SSDs, flash drives, and SD cards. Just wanted to keep the title short and specific. If you're making recommendations for tools for the other types of media, please mention that.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the heads-up on this! Didn't realize that was in the works

[–] ALostInquirer@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

Interesting, thanks! It sounds like you could hide the ability to vote either way then on an instance's frontend, but as you say, it wouldn't really do much to address voting activity from either other frontends or instances.

[–] ALostInquirer@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Yeah, that's along the lines of what I'm asking about, albeit instead of a subscription check more like, I think, however the instances disabling/removing downvoting have done so, but adjusting the scope strictly to the Local or All views.

Another approach to addressing outsider/passive voting behaviors.

 

Given that instances can disable downvoting altogether, it led me to wondering...

What's a spoonerism?

 

A community for seeking and sharing suggestions and recommendations of what else one might like based on their interests and tastes.

Tools, software, books, music, games, tv/movies, whatever else may spring to mind, feel free to ask about and share similar or related stuff to each here.

Asking for clarification as what I've read suggests yes, but is also sometimes coupled with advice to (still?) set a static IP outside of the DHCP address range as well.

Thanks in advance!

 

For admins and moderators, keeping the comment counts including bot comments visible (especially in a moderators' own communities) may be valuable, but not sure if it's all that valuable for ordinary users.

Would it be possible to make it so bot comments don't add to the counts for regular users, or at least for those that have disabled the display of bot posts/comments? As-is seeing an indication of a comment for a post only for it to turn out to be a bot is slightly disappointing at best, and mildly confusing at worst when their display has been disabled.
