well just start asking gpt questions with “please” and “thank you”, and then you’ll be first on the list

they’re going to kill you people first

some brands still have cotton filters and actually do biodegrade…
they’re still poisonous to fish and birds and toddlers… but won’t last as long.
….
but, like i always say, smoking a cigarette through a filter is like sucking dick through a sweater….

nyc is a crazy city

“Chipotle™️, Burning the candle at both ends!”

they are definitely scanning your inbox… you can “opt out” but, i don’t trust that either

well now that twitter belongs to xAI, maybe it’ll get better management… and start banning nazis again….

human driving cars still target bicyclists on purpose so i don’t know see how teslas could be any worse…

p.s. painting a couple lines on the side of the road does not make a safe bike lane… they need a physical barrier separating the road from them… like how curbs separate the road from sidewalks…

i am guilty of hyperbole… i should’ve qualified my infinitives with “just about” and such….
i am more sorry about my inaccuracy than anyone has ever felt sorry about anything

i left it open ended like that because there’s a lot of options….
i’d probably start with selling, like after 5 years people are welcome to copy it and distribute it but not sell it…
but i mean, a lot of variations are possible….

are you sure? have you actually tried? or maybe ask a librarian?
most public libraries are part of a network of libraries… and a lot of their services aren’t immediately obvious….
also, all libraries have computers and free internet access…
i’d like to ask what library in particular, but you probably don’t want to dox yourself like that….

if the library doesn’t have a book, they will order it from another library….
every american library…

i almost wrote that caveat, but decided to leave it low hanging….
as far as i know, though, that only applies to children’s books at this point…

how about: tiered copy rights?
after 5 years, you lose some copyright but not all?

it’s a tricky one but impoverished people should still be able to access culture…

you can, however, go to your local library and read any book ever written for free

the mod of that subreddit “censored” you, not spez or the mods of reddit

without property tax, all land would be owned by corporations whether or not they planned on using it ever….
but an individual living on a property shouldn’t have to pay property tax on their home.
the guy in the picture could have 100 acre of unused land he’s holding on to, too….

another fun one is some cities will seize your property for being $1 off on your property tax payments.

all sorts of people are super satisfied with answers that don’t answer the question….
people tell me that all the time….

some people consider indirect, cryptic answers to be complete

dude, your comments are full of insults and cuss words… i don’t disagree with anything you said, but saying “you’re all fucking idiots and trailer trash” and that sort of thing will totally get you banned there….
banned on most lemmy communities too….
anyways what they did is called shadow banning… a lot of times if you tell a troll they’re banned, they immediately log in with a different account to continue trolling… if you shadow ban someone they’ll think nobody commented and give up… it’s evil though, to use it on people who are actually trying to express an idea, even if it’s crass….
but to save you some trouble:
ALL of the big subreddits are trash, run by shills, and full of bots and astroturfing… the smaller ones are still a good resource, but i mean… posting on conservative leading with “i’m not a conservative” is asking for a fight….
it’s not wrong to do… but it’s wrong to expect them to reasonably engage you.
