  • Redditors, that's what the upvote button is for. No need for posting comments that are essentially just "^this"

    At least the other child comment is adding their 2¢ to the suggestions

    Fill in the blank: I cannot complete the task(s) of __________ without listening to music.
  • I honestly don't mind it normally, but I need the noise cancelling headphones for the losers that blast their shitty soundcloud-tier music off their phone speaker

    What's some really unpopular opinion you have?
  • I hate dog owners letting their dogs piss on my mom's lawn, killing the grass by the sidewalk. When I walk to work in the morning, in NYC I hate dodging piss on the sidewalk as if I'm in SanFran dodging needles.

    Louisiana public schools now required to display 'In God We Trust' in all classrooms
  • official US motto that is used since Civil War

    dub is clearly replying to this aspect of your comment. The In God shit was signed by Eisenhower, a century after the Civil War.

    The In God We Trust and E. Pluribus Unum phrases were BOTH seen and used in the the late 1800s, both in an unofficial manner. HOWEVER, E Pluribus appeared in the Great Seal of the US in the late 1700s, much earlier than the latter phrase.

    Neither was official, but if you're going to pick a "de facto" motto, E. Pluribus Unum was the oldest and most used. Linking to more of your factually incorrect comments is about as useful to this thread as the guy shouting nonsense at the clouds by my office.

    Harris rejects DeSantis’ offer to debate Florida’s new Black history standards
  • Where do you draw the line for what’s acceptable?

    If it's a "what is _____" question (like your original comment), you're guaranteed to find an easy answer on any search engine in literally 2 seconds. Most even summarize the question right on top.

    Finally, just fyi, you can highlight text and right click or long press on it, and the menu should have a shortcut to "Search the web for ${your highlighted text}." Easy way to search on mobile, especially on Android as you can hit/swipe back on Android nav which closes the opened tab, and you're back to doing what you were doing.

  • Correct. That shit is exactly why early 2010s Reddit and (hopefully) lemmy is a much better read in the comments section than today's Reddit. For things that are not straightforward, yeah somebody scrolling on by will answer an interesting question. But I'm sure most people want more meaningful discussion happening in the comments here than people becoming your personal wikipedia bot. Remember "reddiquette"?

    Firefox 116.0 Release Notes
  • Because Joe 6 pack is used to signing into a website once and having it populate the next time he opens the page. Setting the "always open in this container" setting correctly is already asking too much of the average user.

    What is your best school/college life-hack?
  • Do what it takes to pass your classes in university, but prioritize finding an internship or entry level job for your career. No one cares about your GPA, but all entry level jobs want experience.

    To avoid the chicken-and-egg problem of graduating and never getting a job because they want experience, and you can't get the experience unless they give you a job, get an entry level job in college and try to get extra responsibilities in that job for your resume.

  • For me, I use the clipboard a lot and having to hit that clipboard icon at the top right of the keyboard every time I want to paste something really adds up imo. I wish the last copied string would be in the suggested words bar like other keyboards.

    Lemmy is more left leaning because the rights popularity seen on other social media are driven by bots that are not here.
  • Then explain to the class what you do believe in. Give us 3 bullet points you'd want a candidate to also support.

    I'll start as an example:

    • I believe in complete and unequivocal abortion rights for women
    • High speed rail should get more funding in the US, and car based transport (where rail could be a realistic replacement) should not be a cheap as it is
    • Gerrymandering should be ended, and federal level elections should be taken over by a nonpartisan 50-50 committee to create new maps when local governments continue to submit unacceptable voting maps to intentionally stall so they can keep using the old gerrymandered map for the next elections
