Yeah, imo using musicbrainz/picard is great for the process of bringing something into your collection. I encounter errors like others here have mentioned, but they're straightforward to fix. Importantly, it sets up a reference to

I assume the person you're replying to is talking about the Filibuster and supermajority requirements not the direct election history. The filibuster is a senate rule not a constitutional design, so it wasn't part of the "des

It definitely sucks, but it seems likely that gas stations would require it if they were invented today.

Why does the birthright status quo need resolving? Why is there magic pixie dust based on who your parents are? None of these are fundamental truths. The US and the Swiss just chose different laws.

In much of unincorporated america, the most valid form of an address just uses the nearest city regardless of boundaries. Almost nowhere actually guarantees that every bit of land is even in a city limits. At the margins, addresses are unst

Surely a theoretically disgruntled xAI shareholder is going to have a harder time here since they're both private companies and given Elon's proximity to any potential regulators.

People certainly talk about this _on_ bluesky. No idea how much it's escaped outside.

I think the reason it works that way is because they want strong guarantees for the future portability of your skeets. It's sort of a correction for Mastodon's reliance on server admins' goodwill.

Destroying the market for used Teslas and the brand harms Elon Musk's personal wealth which he uses to achieve his personal political goals. Now you may or may not agree with that as a method, but the logic is straightforward.

I've never had that happen (sample size ~5). They accept non-citizen patients, so they probably don't make SSN a required field. (for SSN, never tried to prevent scanning of my ID)

For me the killer kagi feature is that I can manually up and down weight domains in results. I can "pin" and always get wikipedia results or "block" and never get pintrest or raise or lower as needed. Brave search has a

There's a museum in Shanghai with posters going back to Mao that take the same strategy. Lots of highlighting American racism. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propaganda_Poster_Art_Centre https://www.trip

Interestingly, in my part of Los Angeles, the single family homes all got fiber well before the apartment retrofit. It took me joining the hoa board and a year to jump through the hoops for Frontier fios retrofit.

I think that's probably right. The difference is the content. I don't fault people for preferring the X content. It's not even all nazis. However, this is exactly the argument that people use to criticize bluesky. What is an

I obviously can't speak to your specific situation. As I understand it, both X and bluesky require parodies to be labeled. From what I can tell, most content moderation on bluesky is done via labelers, which you need a pds to run, but

I don't understand all the comments promoting the openness of twitter/x. There's a ton of friction to interact with X without an account. Meanwhile, the alternatives mostly allow third party apps, cross posting, and logged ou
