My first thought as well. "We don't need to make it easier to vote on election day, because not many people vote on election day" - let's stop and think really hard about that for a minute.

update - after doing some research online, I found I was able to just reply to the text message with "yes" and it confirmed the reservation.

I'm a mod of !communitytv@lemmy.world, although my user is on discuss.tchncs.de. I mainly asked to be made a mod to remove an old sticky post, but I've seen it come back after unfeaturing it a couple of times. Today I tried to unfeature it again, about an hour ago. Currently it does not show up as featured on my instance, but it still does on lemmy.world. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Here is the post in question on each instance:

Years ago, I had to do customer service training for a job, and one thing they said is to always say "you're welcome" instead of "no problem", because some people think "no problem" is rude. But I think it's a generational thing, and it's kind of the opposite with younger folks.

I was wondering if someone could make me a mod of !communitytv@lemmy.world. The mod there hasn't been active in 7 months. I messaged them last week and the week before, but got no response. I mainly just want to remove an old sticky post. Thanks!

Edit: this has been taken care of, thanks!

I'm thinking in the U.S. and Canada. For example, if you're on vacation, you've checked out of your hotel room and have several hours until your flight, and you have some cans of beer left over. I know you could sneakily drink them in a park or something, but I'm just curious if there's any way to do it that's legal.

Was in south Ontario, the sky was clear for about an hour before totality, and then about 15 minutes before, a big dark cloud came in and ruined it.

Check it out - we drill a huge hole through the moon, and put a giant magnifying glass in it. Then, next time there's an eclipse...

This is just like the dumb HR tests that are like "You see a coworker engage in inappropriate behavior. Should you A. Notify your supervisor, B. Punch them in the face, C. Piss on the floor.

Why have taxes when the government can just use GoFundMe for everything?

Hmm, these huge trucks are killing pedestrians, causing worse crashes due to crash incompatibility, destroying the climate, and now smashing through guard rails and flying off cliffs. We'd better change our entire country's infrastructure to accommodate them.

Normally you tap the text of a comment to make the vote buttons appear, but if the comment is only a picture, clicking it will just open the picture. I've only been able to vote by tapping the username and then finding the comment from their profile. Let me know if I'm missing something.

Edit: I've found that tapping text to the right of the username (the score or the time since posted) brings up the vote buttons, so this seems to resolve the issue.

Just based on how often I notice someone mispronounce a word without realizing it (or have done so myself and realized it later). Statistically I'm probably still doing it with some word.

Before playing the game, the participants sniffed either female tears or a saline solution

Why would they not include male tears in the test?

You gotta admit this post is a little ironic.

This raises the question, why was a company allowed to trademark a letter?
