A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I know only one Maynard, whose shite is good. That is Maynard James Keenan.

There's also "Doc" Maynard, one of the founders of Seattle.

Http? With no "s"? In 2024? Is you being serious right now?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Your fight is with google, not me.

[–] not_woody_shaw 3 points 3 months ago

Yessir.

A lot of major brands have handled their redirect really poorly, and it produces a prompt or a warning, then takes you to the https version of the page instead of using mod rewrite rules on the server.

Would you suddenly trust google if there was an s?
