Generally no. It's just a straw man the right wing trans phones have cooked up to rage-bait voters. Just like post-birth abortion.

You can still merge the whole upstream branch manually with a local clone, and git will stop on each conflict for you to resolve them. Then when it's done you can push the merged branch to your fork.

You making a woman, on your computer?

the stupid thing is I still have my children and I adding our MS accounts after creating the local accounts, because I like setting the parental limits once for all the computers. I just can't stand the stupid email-based usernames it creates when signing into the MS account during account creation.

Wow. Talk about professional gaslighting. Not enough people are aware that the Obama-era FTC enacted the policy because AT&T, Comcast, and Verizon were all caught throttling Netflix and prioritizing their own competing services.

I believe that Google wanted in-app purchases in Fortnite to go through Play Store so that Google would get 30%. And Epic wanted to setup their own in-app billing and keep it all.

I absolutely loathe expressions like "days off" and "personal time." It just has a connotation that your life is by default your employer's. That kind of subliminal messaging can get fucked.

All those spiders that you're never more than 10 feet from have started using fitness wearables, and with 8 arms each that's a lot of bluetooth nearby.

In a new live-stream with Ukrainian fans by Fantastic Talk (s), Sapkowski was asked what was he working on lately. Here is his answer:

“I never say these things because with me you never know. Maybe I’ll do something, maybe I won’t. And so far, when I said that I would write something, and then I didn’t write it, people complained as if I had deceived them and as if I had lied."

I see there is a setting for Show Notifications for New Posts but I haven't wanted to select it as at face value I would see that as all posts in any community. Does that setting by chance only apply to communities we moderate? If not is there a setting somewhere for that?
