Honestly, the job closest to being actual Santa is delivery people, except without the sketchy omnipresent surveillance putting-people-in-lists part.

Here's the original link:
https://idiallo.com/byte-size/cant-update-to-windows-11-leave-me-alone

It was also crossposted to !hackernews@lemmy.bestiver.se which is still up, but not sure if it'll hasn't federated to blahaj's piefed.
Anyway, here's the crosspost's link: https://lemmy.bestiver.se/post/813593
Might work if you search for it from your instance.

Also, here's the hackernews link:

Idk, maybe that's considered a blogpost and not an article ¯(ツ)_/¯

Maybe popular among users but somehow not popular among devs?

Ah yea that too!
Sometimes you can kinda get there by hitting the End key, sometimes you need to open the DevTools to get to their About page or change the language or whatever option they put below the endless scroll.

I like chunkier scrollbars. Fuck the tiny disappearing scrollbars where you need to mouse over... somewhere.. to maybe be graced with its presence, only for it to be 1px wide for some reason.
Also fuck the endless scroll, especially when you already know what you're looking for is on page 4 because you had to reload the page for some reason but the infinite scroll didn't save your position and you have to go down (without an actual scrollbar) only to "load more" 3 times until you're (maybe) on page 4.

No, I downvoted the 5-12 posts that were placed in front of me because they were submitted within hours of each other and therefore were shown sequentially.

FWIW, You've downvoted 432 posts from PugJesus so far (as seen from SJW anyway, there's probably more that never made it here).
I don't particularly care either way, but at some point, might wanna do yourself a favor and just block them altogether.
Either way, there shouldn't be much surprise at being removed from his shit (to you) communities.

It's not forbidden, but also don't act surprised when whoever you're downvoting excludes you from their community, which shouldn't be a big loss to begin with.

One could always curate their own feed instead.

Maybe... "there is no such thing as bad publicity" ?

It is itself hyperbole and it's by no means absolute, but yea plenty of times where bad publicity is still publicity.

FYI Hyundai also plans to extend the warranty on the infamous ICCU to 15 hears and 400000km.

I've never seen one in the wild, but it's a neat idea for bigger events with people who don't know you.

Honestly, it's really not my place to encourage you to do or not do anything (or her).
I'm just saying this kind of connection is special and something to be cherished, to hold on to it, to nurture it, to enjoy its bliss.

Whichever way works for you both is fine, really.
You can choose to try and make what you want out of this connection. By all means, spend time with her, let it develop into what it may.

In our case, both of us already being happy in our own long-term non-poly couples, that's quite a bit different.
And so we focus on maintaining the privilege to be part of each other's lives first and foremost without blowing each other's lives up.

I imagine some/most go on their whole lives without ever meeting this person for them and I feel blessed.

I'm not a religious, spiritual or otherwise superstitious person.
I don't even know how to say this without sounding crazy, even to myself.

Soul friends are a thing.
I don't even know what exactly, and a soul doesn't have to be some weird metaphysical spiritual soul or whatever, but like whatever makes our innermost selves... us?

I don't think I can fully explain it to someone who hasn't lived through this, but it feels like this person has always been part of my "self", so much that I don't even always see her as separated from me.
Not in a co-dependant way, it just is.
It's almost like having one brain in two bodies.
A new feeling of wholeness that I can't begin to describe, and honestly probably don't need to, at least not to her, she gets it, I get it, whatever.
It doesn't even need to be romantic, though it could be.
Certainly, none of it fits in a nicely labeled societal box.
And yet, this person is far from perfect and doesn't need to be. Around each other, our flaws don't matter anymore, they don't need to be hidden, we don't need to play some role or worry about optics or whatever... it's... her... we accept each other as we are, raw. It's enough, we're enough.
We feel safe around each other, sharing stuff we'd never even approach with anyone else.
Without always realizing it, we heal each other of our past, we understand each other and ourselves better just by having each other. We're brutally honest, yet no judgmental and genuinely caring.

And yet, despite all this, we honestly may not be a good fit as a couple.
I mean there certainly could be worse matches, but we're best friends first and foremost, although the friends label really doesn't do justice.

I realized I don't know why I'm saying all this.
I guess I get excited whenever I see people connecting to each other.
Cherish it for what it is, raw human connection, it's fine even if you don't what "it" is.
Peace

As her parent, the absolute best I can offer you... is kick you the fuck out of there.

You're somewhere between a low-key predator and a coward.

This reads similar to other bait stories that have been posted in the past, with different details but similar bullshit. I realize this probably never happened and this is today's ragebait, but just in case...

Fuck this narcissistic bullshit.

Even now you're still only thinking about how you can either get in her pants or how to save face with her mom.

You've basically stood by, doing nothing, while she was in desperate need of someone who would actually stand up for her while she was being harassed in her own home, half-naked and physically abused by your friends.
She has zero reason to ever trust you.

GTFO of her life, GTFO of here.

Brand and model would help

Well damn

The tech itself would be fine if it wasn't such private/public bullshit.
Public costs with private profits should be illegal af.
