We’ve got an automatic feeder too and mine does the same thing. About a half hour before it goes off he’ll meow up a storm because he thinks I control it. We do get some cathartic payback though.

Our feeder has the ability to record an audio clip to play when it goes off and it has come with some entertaining Pavlovian side-effects. When the mic engages it makes a crackling sound that sounds kind of like a pig oinking. So now if I oink at my cat and call him a little piggy he expects food and sits next to the feeder waiting 😂

Also should probably tell us the general area of the world they’re from

That is so fucking cute

DOGE is just a renamed version of the USDS(US Digital Services Agency) that was established in 2014. Trump literally just changed the name to the US DOGE Service.

I’m not sure why you’re being downvoted because you’re right. The department got renamed with the stupid acronym with the new administration and functions differently now, but it’s existed for just about a decade prior to this happening.

Yes, people genuinely believe that the social credit exists.

The term has nothing to do with Tiananmen square and it’s usage actually predates the massacre by almost 40 years.

What’s a tankie?

You’re conflating Patriarchal gender roles with Stoicism. They are not the same thing and Stoicism is not what OP is asking about.

It doesn’t cause panic, but I don’t back up my photos on my Google drive because I don’t want to and I don’t need to. So every time it forces me to accidentally turn it on, the sooner I stop it the fewer pictures I need to individually delete from my drive. It’s a massive hassle that shouldn’t happen.

Can they also stop harassing me to turn it on? The placement of the accept button is idiotic too because it’s directly over where the normal nav options are. I accidentally turn it on all the time, need to frantically stop the backup, and then log into the desktop site to delete the photos it grabbed. It’s extremely annoying.

That song is actually a reference to the older video that I linked to. It shows the original creator, JT Sexkik as a credit in the beginning.

It’s a reference to a meme video of someone reading misspelled Yahoo answer users asking pregnancy questions. It’s quite entertaining.

YouTube Link to the video in question.

I’ve been asking myself the exact same thing.

The top level comment on this thread, to which you complained about graphical syntax, is discussing the MAU decline over the past 30 days.

If you start at zero, the exact same data is shown as when there is a clearly labeled breakpoint. It contributes nothing other than obscuring the data points and scope of discussion is only for the past month. You’re not making a cogent point.

Just like I said before, a 5% decline is not an insignificant drop or “very slightly declined.” Expanding the scope of the argument to show that it’s actually a far steeper decline in user engagement and then arguing the opposite point is misinterpreting the data. Expanding the scope just shows that the trends are continuously showing declining user engagement with no organic growth other than Reddit fucking up.

Showing the data over an entirely different timescale than what’s currently under discussion means nothing in this context to illustrate your point.

Starting from 0 on the y axis just means you need to change the scale, which like I said makes reading any data points incomprehensible, or end up with an unnecessary amount of whitespace.

All starting at 0 would do is ensure that you have no way to accurately gauge the data points values. It would also just compress the data to an incomprehensible smudge of a line.

The starting point is just so you can adequately see trends for both plots shown and is quite sane. I also don’t know if I could call an ~5% decline and clear trend minimal either.

It’s not gatekeeping, it’s a discussion of semantics. The official definition of cooking is the preparation of food by using heat.
