Compared to USB-A, not really that much of a game changer (it’s still the most common for me). Though I do not miss the three rotations to get it in.

Compared to Micro-USB? Holy fuck, I almost refuse to buy anything still using Micro-USB ported now. Mainly because I can’t never find the fucking cable for it.

That spider wants to puke up into that bees insides, so not only is it an entomocidal maniac, it’s also a hypocrite.

I’m not sure it’s stated, but I thought the planets that had already been purged by Thanos’ armies, like Gamora’s planet and Xandar were spared the snap.

I’ll never get tired of jokes at ancaps’ expense.

🎵They say the world looks down on the bureaucrats,
They say we’re anal, compulsive, and weird,
But when push comes to shove,
You’ve got to do what you love,
Even if it’s not a good idea!🎵

Just tried, only pissed myself.

It’s a pale imitation of Stage 9.

So is Halloween (Samhain).

Thanks for the reply! It just seemed euphemistic to me as cages have a predominantly positive connotation with safety or protection. Roll cages, faraday cages, and shark cages protect those within. Most other cages are for the protection of those outside, which cars obviously aren’t.

The only negative connotation cages have is animal cruelty or false imprisonment, and even then you sympathise with those within the cage.

Now say car-nut, petrolhead, or even just driver, and I have clear enough picture painted.

Doesn’t quite fit, but I guess. Im curious why the OP chose to use a euphemism though.

 

Having tried several Lemmy clients, I can safely say that Mlem is my favourite in terms of user experience, except one, even though I am sure I’ve read this is possible in Mlem I cannot find how to block an instance, which was relatively easy to do in Memmy.

It doesn’t appear to be an option in any settings menu, nor an option in an instance profile.

If this isn’t, in fact, possible, I guess this post is a feature request then!
