Yep, that’s pretty much the standard salad where I live. Most people understand that’s not really healthy, but it still feels healthier than bread sticks and butter. The cherry tomatoes are the extra convincing we need to actually call it “healthy”

I’ve had to train literally hundreds of people over the various jobs I’ve had and it causes me to over explain in almost every conversation.

I got two tricks to figure out how much someone knows about a topic and encourage them to ask questions rather than lie just to avoid being a little uncomfortable.

First, I look for them to use vocabulary that I haven’t already mentioned or if they seem to understand something just by using a couple words.

Second, I ask them to explain something early in the conversation to make it easier to ask if they don’t understand something later. It’s usually really simple, but it really does work to lower communication barriers.

I like to think it makes us feel more like equals trading expertise, rather than like I’m some authority talking down to them.

I hope this helps anyone

Cherry tomatoes are the things you put in a salad at a restaurant to feel healthy, then pick them out once you get back to the table.

You’ll have to ask me after I do it, I’m not sure how I’ll feel

Not op, but I’d say it’s easy to guess why people care about numbers so much. Main reason is because it feels like making a statement and that feels good. It’s a tiny amount of effort for a bigger dopamine reward.

It’s just as easy to guess why people don’t care about them either. They don’t affect anything and can feel meaningless as a result. It just depends on the person

I’ve had them before. If you want to hide them, wear a jacket or sweater. It’s not a big deal anymore though. The only people that ever said anything was friends and family teasing a bit. I’d still have them if my body didn’t reject them so often, but that’s just something to do with me

I kinda thought that was how most small towns worked. We got a couple big factories that take up a big chunk of the workforce here. They have a huge amount of power in controlling the wages for the town, which is always worrying. They pay the highest, but it’s still not very high

I put tor on a flash drive. It bypassed the schools website blocks, so I could go onto any website I wanted. I mainly just went to YouTube to listen to music while I worked. If I really felt like goofing off, I’d go to friv.com and play a bunch of flash games.

Of course a couple friends had me to go to a porn website, but we quickly realized it was awkward and not as fun to be horny when you couldn’t do anything about it.

I hope that my comment didn’t read as me complaining. I fully understand that this is different from reddit and I’m grateful to every developer working on lemmy in any capacity.

I just wanted to be sure I tried all of the popular options to find what works best before fully committing to one. Out of the four, liftoff seems to be the best. The main issue it got with it is that both accounts share the same settings. If I change a setting for one account, it changes the settings for the other as well.

Okay, so I’ve been here for a few days and I’m getting increasingly confused. I used reddit exclusively on mobile and was hoping to do the same thing for lemmy. But it seems like every app has major features missing. I’ve already tried 4 different apps and every one is missing a feature I’d consider critical. Keeping two accounts separate, adjusting settings for two different accounts, commenting, replying, posting, subscribing, and searching for specific instances are all pretty important, but every app is missing one or more of these features.

Is there a quickstart guide anywhere to get more familiar with this? Does anyone know of an app that can do all of this? I’ve already tried jerboa, summit, connect, and liftoff
