@[email protected] is right. What the lines are is very important. But it also matters over what time period.

If we do say, 20 lines per workday for a month, your heart will be fine!

Your nose might fall off though.

Don't you want users to be on the platform as long as possible to maximize ad revenue? If this was just to force people to pay for verification, why wouldn't they make that tier unlimited? I honestly can't even believe this is real.

Can we maybe get screenshots of twitter drama? I really don't want to have to make an account just for that.

So it goes.

100% agree, it's a real life pro tip kind of thing to add to your daily routine. Also the taste is not bad at all with the flavorings or whatever is in metamucil.

It also has other health benefits like reducing cholesterol!

This will be possible to actually implement on Lemmy, whereas reddit was closed source, and didn’t really care about their communities.

Just curious how you think you might go about this. Do you plan on contributing yourself, forking, or using the community to influence the direction/prioritization of new features?

I'm going to assume you weren't politically aware when Obamacare was being passed. It barely made it through as it was. There was absolutely zero chance universal health care could ever have been passed at that time. To claim Obama had the power to enact it is insane.

Also, since Obamacare contained huge expansions for medicaid eligibility, and Obamacare is, as you claim, "literally a conservative system", wouldn't medicaid for all be the most conservative system of them all?

Finally, no, no one is left in ERs to die, insured or not. Heck you don't even need to be a citizen. That hasn't been true since 1986. That said, you would get a hefty bill if they actually know who you are and I do fully support a system where that is not the case and one can get treatment without worrying about the cost.

Obama even had a supermajority for six months of his presidency, and we still had to hear the usual excuses people make in order to deflect from criticism of Democrats.

Another way of saying this is that with only 72 days of congress that Obama actually had a supermajority, he passed the largest expansion of healthcare coverage for Americans since medicare/medicaid.

I guess that's a conservative outcome to you though.

Do you really think they plate the food in the back of the house, then turn around and dump that plate of food into a container, and then wash the plate?
No wonder they need to charge extra.

Cost of takeout bags, containers, IT, all that jazz,

And then we subtract the cost of plates, dishwashers, chairs, menus, tables, IT for their internal POS and seating systems... gosh, sounds like I should be getting a discount!
