Yes and no.

Pending means the sub hasn’t gone through to the home instance of the community. If you’re the first subscriber, this means the there will be no inbound federation bringing the content from that community to your instance.

If someone else on your instance has already successfully subbed, the federating is already occurring, and your instance will be receiving the activity as it comes in.

Your instance will then show it to you, both in your subscriptions and in general, even though the sub is pending.

If your sub stays pending, you may have to unsub and resub to get it to work. If no-one else on your instance has subbed either, then the activity will continue to not show up for as long as it is pending.

He’s cuddly as hell, and gets right up in the business of new and old humans without a care.

Even knows how to play fetch, given I use a toy that he likes to chase when thrown, more than he likes to chew it when caught.

Absolutely, but those shouldn’t be overlooked by anyone, and forgiven only once someone has made the effort to unlearn that shit.

Is the “profound” message here really just that as younger women enter the lives of their aging husbands and then fathers, they tolerate less and less of the historical sexist shittyness, as they’ve grown up a generation later than the previous main female figure in their lives?

Scoffing when asked to change ones behaviour for the better is not a gendered charachter fault. No-one likes being informed that something they’ve been doing, and consider normal, is bad, actually.

And that’s not a reason not to improve. The opposite. It’s a reason to embrace self-improvement, and to learn to do ones best to skip the denial phase.

Something I think most people, of both genders, can be very good at if they want to be.

I’m right there with you. I’m utterly confused.

What is there to forgive? Is thore some inherent shittyness in men that needs overlooking on the part of women, or suppressing on the part of men?

Or is this just talking about how gender equality as improved with each generation, so as the same dudes age, the younger women in their lives are asking them to be more and more fair?

Fake news. Cats always make things better, especially when they’re making things worse.

No. EAC and Battleye developed ways to explicitly support proton, which has to be explicitly enabled by the developer for the game to run.

Proton didn’t change, the popular AC options did. They’ve had proton support pretty much since the steamdeck launched, and it works great as long as the developer of a game bothers checking the checkbox for it.

EAC works on linux just fine, and the fact that Apex runs, means Respawn deliberately allows it.

I just checked the docs for installation instructions, it didn’t seem to make a distinction anymore.

Great. It wasn’t too long ago that MariaDb was still the “recommended” option.

Nextcloud.

Though I think it has some level of support for postgres by now. I should check on that.

How the fuck do you “accelerate” something they are already achieving?

Not sure how much of a future it can have even if you slap on some “speed”.

Also, should they be in a mood to be touched, unimaginable softness.

Satisfactory 1.0 just dropped.

Coffe Stain literally does straight up ASMR trailers sometimes.

im not sure why you think the money coming in from premiums isnt the same money used to pay claims

And I’m not sure why you’d assume I think that.

You’re saying they make their money from denying claims, rather than from premiums paid by the healthy, which they then keep by denying claims from the sick (who also pay them premiums), is a distinction without a difference.

They literally do?

Customers that pay their premiums for years without actually needing healthcare is literally free money for them.

No, I did change it, IIRC I enabled a lot of the ones that weren’t by default.

I haven’t felt the need to use anything else in months, so I’d say it’s very much fit for purpose.

You can always check out one of the instances available for free use to see how it performs.

All of them.

It shows you which ones “agree” on a given entry, so you can tune it to your tastes.

Self-hosted. That’s not a typo, it’s what it’s called. Searxng.

Here’s a list of puplic instances to try or use.

I’ve been using my own searxng instance for a few months now and my god I’m never going back.

Don’t worry, I will never stop posting anime girls

I fully agree. Spotify’s payment model has been criticized for years, but they refuse to consider changing it.

AFAIK youtube music works in the way you suggest, where the money from your subscription gets divided up among whoever you listen to.
