That's good to know! I was initially confused about how you double a $50k amount and get to $350k, but I'm guessing it works as an additional fine every day and is like:
- Day 0: No fine
- Day 1: Add $50k
- Day 2: Add $100k
- Day 3: Add $200k

I really appreciate this response, I have basically no interest in spending time watching other people play games when I don't even have time to play them myself very often. As a result, I have no idea who the celebs are in this realm of culture, so thank you for getting me up to speed!
That would imply ownership and agency over the retention of our data, which federation kind of fundamentally cannot guarantee. An instance in the Fediverse can only guarantee the right to be forgotten on their own instance. I could see this becoming a big regulatory problem as the Fediverse grows. We're already seeing regulatory issues with CSAM, for example.
Maybe I'm desensitized, but I honestly don't remember any gay moments in this movie. There are obviously plenty of guys wearing really "flamboyant" outfits, but it was contrasted with their toxic masculinity (i.e. behavior mostly associated with the types of people who actually tend to be homophobic), which is what made it so goddamn funny.
And I also have no idea what they're talking about with promoting body transformation. Unless you know going in that the one actress is trans, you might not even guess she is. The main joke that even references genitalia is making fun of the fact that the Barbie and Ken dolls have nothing there...
And all this is beside the point anyway. Modern societies shouldn't be catering to the precious feefees of religious/conservative snowflakes. They can just choose not to see this movie instead of ruining it for everyone.
Aside from being tone deaf, I think this is bad advice. Common breakfast foods are fairly cheap comparatively and I'm pretty sure most nutritionists recommend eating something for breakfast to kickstart your metabolism. If I were skipping/reducing a meal, it would be lunch.
It's not an app issue, you'll notice the same behavior in any Lemmy client. Once you're subscribed successfully, new content should be coming in normally unless, again, there is an instance/federation issue.
Don't forget, they also get legal exposure!
I was able to get video streaming with audio working on Discord using pipewire, but it was a massive pain in the ass and somewhat unreliable. I don't have a lot of experience with Jitsi, but I trust others' recommendation there
I don't know exactly what the percentage of new laptops that can use USB-C charging is, but it's a pretty large percentage. My Lenovo Yoga came with a USB-C charger and that's all it uses for charging. That said, I actually do agree with you that this is not really a problem for laptops and IMHO it's often a lot easier to fix/replace a broken DC barrel type charging port than a USB port on a laptop because a DC barrel generally just has 2 relatively large solder points. I'm a lot more nervous handling my laptop with a USB-C charging cable attached than I would be with a DC barrel. However, I'm in favor of legislation that reduces the number of proprietary port standards (like Lightning).
The addition of the delta symbol is exactly the kind of creativity we need around here. I'd give you Lemmy silver if I could afford it.
Who is Dream and, more particularly, what's the connection to those sneakers?
Good point, but I feel like they could probably just translate that scene without having the innuendo (like the direct translation for "beach off" probably doesn't sound anything like the translation of "beat off", so it would become more of a whimsical non sequitur directly translated).
I think there's a fair amount in this movie that doesn't really translate well outside American/Western culture anyway. For me, that scene was funny because it's repeating a pun that points to the Ken characters' innocence when in the real world, they'd be mocked mercilessly by some people. And it forces the audience to think about their own reactions when insecure straight men sometimes follow sentences like that jokingly with, "no homo," to point out that, despite unintentionally saying something that sounded kind of gay, they are not in fact gay. At any rate, I don't see this scene as an endorsement of homosexuality, but rather a commentary on society's fixation on hypermasculine language.
