This is actually a HUGE factor in human sexual selection. Other primates have visible Estrous cycles. I.e. what people commonly call going into heat.

This has a big impact on reproductive dynamics. Who mates, when they mate, etc.

Humans, for whatever reason, do not have a visible indicator of fertility, which provides females more sexual selection options. Because it’s not obvious when they’re in heat, they can choose who they mate with at the right time. They can also socially mate all the time, which can increase human bonding.

Soda water. Because getting drunk isn’t on my agenda. But it fits the vibe and people think your having a vodka tonic or something

100%. I think the developer taking the project read only was not a temper tantrum, it was just them signifying they don’t have time to maintain it. So now if you want anything to happen you must fork it.

Mosh plus tmux is amazing.

From a showrunner perspective, you want to have a diverse set of sets, activities, and situations you can perform in. That leaves you either with wealthy characters, who can justify doing these things in these exotic places. Or poor characters who behave wealthy inexplicably.

Ie friends where people working dead end jobs had housing better than most millionaires.

Should we examine your profile?

Your username here is blow me, how is your dating app presence?

Are you putting up any red flags, without realizing it?

I use tinder, it’s been really good for me.

The key is to use the app that is popular in your location.

Attitude is a huge factor, think of it just like meeting random people, maybe having great discussions, maybe having an excuse to go to event with somebody, having a good adventure. No pressure no expectations. If you have a plan people love to join the plan. So the initial swipe match game is what it is. You can have a friend with a good camera take some nice photos, you can show interesting places, interesting things, let the app choose your most engaging photo for you automatically.

When you talk to people find something interesting about them, ask them questions about it, have your own agenda, invite them to events you already have planned and no big deal if they don’t go. Surprisingly most people want to go and see what this cool thing you’re doing is. And then from there you know you can build up.

The dating apps are just a meeting place of people who are interested in meeting people. If you treat it like that, just like a happy hour, you’re going to have a great time

Mvno. Mobile virtual network operator.

It’s like Google voice, but you also get a SIM card and data with it.

The phone number you have on it, does not show up as a VoIP number, shows up as a normal mobile number. Even if you only access it via messenger and not via SMS.

You can use Google fi as a non-voip voip number. It just costs $20 a month.

It’s not frugal, but it’s the most secure way to do it

The connection to the network is fungible.

If the phone number you give everybody is a voip number, like Google voice…

Then it doesn’t matter who your cell phone carrier is. Buy the cheapest one, month to month.

Visible is a good option. Just don’t move your phone number. Leave your phone number on VoIP. Don’t give anybody the phone number of your phone.

A couple reasons, first it’s the easiest to move your phone around if you don’t have to move the number, second nobody can track your location by looking up your phone number if they don’t have your physical phone number. VoIP does not map to your phone

If I’m the post master I’m proud of everyone being able to communicate and the huge dividends this brings society.

I don’t get upset about delivering mail to the prisons. I would get upset if I wasn’t allowed to!

Yeah, if your going to support something support the open source project that doesnt advertise

While he did say those things, it doesn’t mean anyone was willing to fight for it internally. This is why many external companies that do so well on the open market die and wither after they get acquired by big companies. Internal politics don’t have to be rational externally.

i think it was just standard politics, everybody had to take a haircut, and nobody in leadership wanted to fight for that studio, it didn’t have a patron/protector. It got killed because no executive was championing it, not because it was bad.

If you really want this condition, you don’t need to inject oil, just read the The wiki article

If I’m committing to a system, I only want fans. Lowest levels of maintenance ever

Some phone carriers prevent people from doing hotspot sharing of their mobile internet.

Your carrier might be one of them doing that.

If your phone is unlocked, you could install a open operating system that doesn’t restrict you. Like calyxos, lineage os, or grapheneos

Sometimes we need to talk about grandpappy.

Opt-in ; Respecting Agency; Explicit Consent.

Microsoft has every intention of SHOVING this down your throat, and only corporate group policy will be exempted. They will use every nag screen, dark pattern, accidently enabling with updates, randomized installs, to make it happen. Look at what they do with edge, for an example. MS absolutely does not respect consent. #MS-MeToo

Apple for all its faults, respects people when they say No, and if they say it’s opt-in, they have a track record to back that up. Apple says ‘Hey look at this cool new feature you can use’, and I think Horray - more choice.

Skimming all the comments, didn’t see this mentioned explicitly
