Yeah, you’re completely right. Microsoft Teams refers to multiple communications platforms, not just one. Wikipedia and Microsoft themselves made the same mistake as OP here. Hope you can help!

We survived the Cold War. We survived that mild awkward moment where there were just 10,000 humans or something. We survived the Paleolithic by throwing and walking kinda good despite having super-mediocre body builds compared to the lithe apex competition.

Sure, a United Statesian might not know what price elasticity means when they go pro-tariffs, and shoot their foot on a national scale. Sure, “Eastern” youths might stretch themselves systemically thin to leap through an education colander into a limited, demanding job seat. Sure, there’s a whole terror cloister awkwardly just below South Korea, a crap ton of eyes on the Ukraine, and the new context of exponentially advancing tech compared to the last kabillion years.

But I believe in the human spirit. Call me a fool. We don’t even need to be enlightened to not destroy ourselves. We just need to be what we always fuckin been, what we always fuckin will be.

Stupid endurant.

in all three senses of the shit.

We have the Venn overlap of people who want privacy and people who dislike enshittification. Then some join Lemmy.

⇒Nonresponse bias by people who scroll by and don’t care to read other people’s info or post their own. Huge sieve, these comments aren’t even seen.

Then we have curious people who are probably curious about tech or tinkering or protecting themselves or more organic forums like Lemmy.

⇒Nonresponse bias by people who check this out by curiosity (e.g. comment/upvote ratio, are people really giving out their info or faking it with jokes?) but then they definitely choose to not comment. They et al. might upvote the above comment or not, and nope out.

We can’t even get good Linux user demographics. A large survey sometime back said “Wayland was leading over Xorg, according to users who replied” – obviously false, take a look at Indian corporate use of Ubuntu Desktop LTS, or the legacyness of X11.

Blah blah, 2.5/mitosis/deep sea geysers

I assume the envisioned discussion was supposed to be

Q: Thoughts on the Orphan Crushing Machine?

A: The CDC says crushing orphans is bad for our health.

A: The government in Orphania is expanding the definitions of orphans to all seniors, allowing a cascading orphan-crushing effect.

where we all experience the same negative emotion in a fuller, mildly variable way.

But yeah, it’s kind of… predictable, isn’t it?

Done.

• How dangerous really is your job?
• What happens if you get injured? Insurance/etc.?
• What differences do you have when performing for adults vs. children? (since you mention child-friendly, I assume that means you don’t do things that might scare them)
• What are your least tame skills?
• How did you get into performing in the sideshow? Mentors, training, string of coincidences?
• Favorite memory?
• Any frightening memories?

Sorry for the wall x)

Not to be a downer but was this written by ChatGPT?

It’s clearly poetry with a rhyme scheme but most poets don’t waste words. This feels like it wastes words

Edit: lemme make a human poem
