I used to work with a Michael Hunt. Brilliant guy and normally pretty chill, but woe betide anyone shortening it to it’s diminutive form. I accidentally called him Mike once and he literally never responded to me again.

Hahaha. A rented Opel was what came to mind for me as well. Followed by Plymouth Crossfire and Chevy HHR.

Not a federal ID, but a federal standard for State IDs. And not “only”, but SocSec card is one of the several forms of ID you could use. Not required and not enough by itself.

Between this Anthem, Target, and OPM, it seems likely that most Americans have their SSN out there for criminals to buy.

The same Europe that is home to Orban and Vucic and Erdogan? Yeah, good thing you never elect right-wing ideologues with a penchant for authoritarianism.

Lemmy now has export/import for settings, including blocklist.

How am I to tell who is a tankie, vs a wumao, vs a Russian bot troll? It can be hard to tell who is commenting in good faith.

I’m kidding, of course. I just block them all. No one using these talking points is worth my time.

Gotta love tankies unironically parroting Putin’s disinformation.

its pretty clear. You’re conversing with a tankie.

That reads like ChatGPT used reddit comments to flesh out the “article”.

Just as an FYI, whether lie detector tests are accurate or not, lying in a polygraph interview for a federal background check is a crime. Polygraph interviews can and do sometimes lead to criminal prosecution.

oof. Never noticed that about reincarnation. What could be worse than dying? Being brought back to suffer more.

yeah for my macbook, i use gaffer’s tape.

just buy a little stick-on privacy slider. They’re like 3 for $10

I aoologize, I should have realized it would feel like I was piling on and that wasn’t really my intent.

I’m not saying it aint the ADHD. Not to be presumptuous, but I suspect from the sound of it I am probably a lot like you in some ways. I’m just saying you dont need to bring up ADHD at all. Just accept that you fucked up, apologize, and move on. And that’s what I meant by “own your mistake.” I felt like bringing up ADHD is still deflecting unnecessarily. It doesn’t mean you are a shitty person, it just means you were rude once on the internet.

I understand that I didn’t need to respond at all and that I was adding negative energy where there wasn’t any… generally not a nice thing to do. Looking back on it, I see that.

That’s a very mature way to view it. I respect that.

I fucking suck, I see that

I dont think that is a healthy way to view having made a mistake, especially one so minor. Not that I generally manage to avoid the same trap. I think the mindful approach to guilt or remorse would be to observe and judge the actions, but not to judge ourselves. With this, give yourself some grace. You’re probably your own worst critic.

and I will endeavor to do better.

I’ve always viewed apologies as best summed up by this sentiment. Almost every time I cause hurt or harm, it is unintentional. Unfortunately, that is rarely an excuse. The best I can do is try to make up for it and try not to make the same mistake, in the same way, again.

As someone with ADHD: please dont blame lack of meds for shit like this. You are contributing to the stigma. Just own your mistakes.

Exactly. I also inferred all this from just the two word title and the context of which community it is in.
