Interesting.

So that means match any string that is made entirely of a single repeating sequence, where repititon is possible.

Empty input Or input of exactly 1 character Or input of at least 2 characters, followed by at least 1 something (idk what \1 matches)

Did I get it (almost)?

There are lots of reasons to want alternatives to social media mega-corps, and the people with those reasons have varied likes and hobbies.
Even amongst the people who care about privacy, decentralization, etc, people still have varied interests. All you have to do is look at the popularity of Tiktok content about privacy, security, programming, etc.

Dude is a basement dweller, and just assumed that was the norm for everyone who shared an interest with him.

I have my own thoughts about hurdles that loops will face, but “fediverse is for snobs” isn’t it.

Where?

Lamest flex in history

Because the constraints make it interesting
I want the length limits.

Yeah, the fediverse would be much better place without narcissistic gatekeeps like you here to bring the mood down all the time.

What an absolute neckbeard take

I’m interested, and I hope it’s successful.

I’m not sure how they’re going to attract creators, when Tiktok already has the same features, has a larger audience, and pays… But I hope they can because I’d love to dump Tiktok for something open source.

I wonder how their FYP will work, because honestly that’s a huge part of what makes Tiktok good.

Step 8: wake up for real this time. It’s 9:30 and you’re late.

This is probably telling on myself, but I’m not sure how to read “breeding” here.

I’m assuming (hoping) that they mean the literal dictionary definition of breeding it with other sheep, to produce a herd of genetic mutant giant sheep.

I’m afraid they’re using slang and this dude cloned his fav sheep and fucked it.

American exceptionalism and identity politics have become so ingrained in the culture that it is too painful for people to identify as lower class and needing assistance. Needing help has become considered a moral failing of the individual instead of a failing of the society, and that feeds back into itself to prevent people from changing the culture.

I wanted some of their side projects. Their web-things iot automation controller (and related standards) was pretty sweet. Until they spun it off into its own company without any staff.

Lol yeah
But also let people like stuff. Don’t be a snooty ass about it.

That’s a wild interpretation of what they said.

Dude described a branding problem, not a technical problem.

Anarchocommunism babYYYY 😎

the first thing you do is get a rag

Was because you were downplaying the importance of the rag. The rag is more important than the water is. If you’re cleaning a mess, and your choice is between water and rag, you choose the rag.

How commonly do bidet users scrub with both TP and water in a single sitting? The internet and this comment section suggests it’s pretty rare.

People are choosing between bidet (water) and tp (rag), and in your analogy, you’re saying the sensible choice is to wash something with only water and no rag. Your analogy only holds water (lol) if you don’t actually think about it.

Is that clear enough for you?

Oh I totally agree.

But voting liberal (eg Dems in the USA) gives us more time to find a solution. It’s not the solution, it’s just a stalling tactic. Even when they’re trying to block opportunities, it still results in relatively more opportunities than otherwise. I think there is value in that.

There are times when spoiling a ballot or even voting the other way is good, it sends a message which may (unlikely) cause a shakeup. But to simply never participate just accelerates the destruction.
