I’m also always impressed by Demi Lovato

That’s not exactly true. He’s talked about buying it for a little bit and was trying to buy enough shares to be on the board. The board essentially made that impossible so that’s when he put out the joke offer to buy it outright. But then he entered legitimate legal proceedings making that offer official and agreed to pay a certain amount in damages if he withdrew the offer. Then he tried to withdraw the offer saying it was a joke. Then they said “ok, pay us the damages you agreed to” and he tried to pretend that wasn’t real. Then eventually agreed to buy to get out of paying damages (and getting nothing out of it) because he knew his excuse would never hold up in court.

So he wasn’t forced to buy it, he was forced to meet one of the two stipulations he agreed to in a contract, one of which was buying it.

I imagine they mean without a cloth, poof, or loofa. As a kid I would put body wash in my hand, lather, and rub it over my body. But it tended to use up soap quickly so either I had to add more soap part way through or the things I washed last didn’t get washed well. Which is why I switched to a poof.

If it’s the same people, they’ll probably get tired of it and move on. But the more we talk about it, the more likely it is that new people want to get in on the “fun”. I’d say to not make memes about the downtime and pretty much act like it doesn’t exist (as users, obviously the admins should take action as necessary to mitigate it and post to be transparent).

The cardboard tube only goes partially through the hole so the majority of the toilet paper is wrapped around nothing

Agreed completely, it’s a workaround that requires some sacrifices.

Technically you can use Shortcuts to set whatever icon you want but it takes some effort to set up. And I don’t think it can use transparency so it’d have to take up the whole square (or out more effort into making the background of the icon match your background). And it’ll take a second longer to load the app as it goes through Shortcuts first

And, like janitors, they usually go unrecognized for the help they give and heavily criticized for anything that’s not perfect.

Personally, I wouldn’t want them spending precious development time on this when you could just block the community and set a reminder on your phone for whenever you want to unblock it.

Also, I read another article and it doesn’t sound like the person convicted was even really an ISIS sympathizer, it was just an idiot who got in an argument on the internet and faked a terrorist attack to get back at the person they were arguing with.

I’m fairly certain that’s not the case. Once they’re convicted and sentence has been handed down, they have to report to prison. They can continue to appeal, but they have to do so from prison. Also, unless there’s legitimate reason the original ruling might be wrong (or they have enough money for good lawyers), appeals general go pretty quick for cases like this. They’re just checking to make sure there was no procedure breaks or new evidence.

It’s been submitted for approval so it’s whenever Apple approves it. In the post, they said that it’ll most likely be about 24 hours which would mean tomorrow morning but it could take longer.

Well it was very different a couple days ago. Things got shook up apparently, I don’t know the full story but a bunch of communities got wiped for some reason.

Cowboys do. They got their thumbs in their belts all the time. Maybe that’s why they’re dying out…

Ben & Jerry’s has been fairly socially progressive for a while, this is not their first campaign like this and it hasn’t seemed to really affect them yet. There’s also the fact that part of Bud Light’s problem was who their average consumer was. Not every company that does something like that will get the same treatment, but when you advocate for something that most of your customers will disagree with, it’ll cause you problems.

For example, take the Chicks (formerly the Dixie Chicks). They took a stand against the war in Iraq and made negative comments about George W. Bush. They were nowhere close to the first band/artist to this, but they saw the most backlash. But it’s because they were a country band so the majority of their fanbase supported the things the condemned.

In these cases, I give them the benefit of the doubt and try to provide a rational argument why I disagree with them. It either sparks a discussion/debate or they’re obviously trolling and I downvote and move on. But some people that seem like trolls are really just ignorant and showing them why you disagree can help them shape their opinion.

For Mlem, I went to their GitHub and found a comment with a TestFlight link. You have to download the TestFlight app (which is for beta testing apps) as well. But they have a set number of testers they can have for each iteration so you might not be able to get in
