RE: RE: Discord Indexing: Seems like its a completely useless feature. They only index public channels, that is channels accessible by the @everyone role. The problem is that any large server right now is using roles to gate access and prevent spam. Join any big server and you hit a lobby atm.

Dying on the hill that the only saving grace of those movies is Gunn's music taste is impeccable.

my keyboard-only workflow is absolutely cooking why did i never mess with any of this earlier wtf

I have spent a long time now trying to be more Sufferable when I think I should do the opposite

What if we unleashed Smug Business Wrin on the world? What then? What if I was just fucking good at shit in a very public way?

The only two MMOs I've settled on being Good:tm: are RuneScape and Eve Online and I think what they both have in common is that you must dedicate your entire life to them. FFXIV is a soft exception to the rule because Yoshida is an angel. WoW & the rest are cowards that know nothing of Progression

A subpost: You should not create variable pricing based on platform. If your Ko-Fi needs you to charge $37, you should also make your PayPal $37. Seeing "Paypal $35 + Ko-Fi $37" gives off the appearance of a cheap-ass business who isn't confident in their own worth. Make both $40 and call it a day.

visibly passing the $2 fee of your processor off to your customer is a good way to signal to your customers that you're not worth their time, ngl

This is how small town lawyers are born

It has a list of all the questions you’re allowed to ask. Of course, no one really knows which will be asked until each side’s lawyer draws it out of The Hat.

To be very clear: This post is cheese. It is nonsense. Not even cheddar, it's American.

This picture does not do it justice. This fucking slaps. Holy shit.

Not only an incredible talent, but a rare talent who also thought it was funny to just voice random memes every once in a while

Apropos of nothing, if you're considering switching from a recently deprecated browser and want to try Firefox, I just landed `Copy Tab URL` in nightly - it's not bound by default but a quick visit to `about:keyboard` will let you set it, and also take a glance at the other neat shortcuts we have.

worked in sales for like 4 months at a well-known company and they literally used clips from wolf of wallstreet to "motivate" us no I am not kidding in fact fuck it Ill name drop: it was Angi, as in Angie's List.

Constantly was told to sell to people who wouldn't benefit from ads and who didn't have the money. Had one guy tell me he only had $400 in the bank and my manager told me if I didn't sell him she'd write me up lmao

Bone apple teeth folks

We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It's 'buck naked' -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’ -It’s ‘toe the line'

Glad to see this got fixed 👍 Good work on a speedy response

alex benzer@alexbenzer.com

some folks reported not being able to use certain adult-focused platforms (like onlyfans and fansly) — there was an internal miscommunication and these were accidentally added to the list of disallowed domains. this is now fixed! but you may need to refresh your app to get the update. 💙

The replies to this tell me more people are smoking meth & snorting coke than I initially expected.

Something I'm learning about myself is that I'm very bad at doing repetitive piecework but I am very good at designing systems that eliminate the need for it

constantly thinking back to the fact that half the people you see online are either on substances or actively trolling/baiting
