It’s useful to note that there exists Lemmy servers where down votes are not processed. So the high up vote to down vote ratio isn’t necessarily a reflection of people not down voting, it’s potentially a reflection of the servers that allow down votes along with all other servers (generally they all allow up votes).

SomeRandomWordsto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that chiropractors are not medical doctors and "Systematic reviews... have found no evidence that chiropractic manipulation is effective"1·1 year agoAs my sister who is a MT always said: “A massage therapist gives you a massage, a masseuse gives you a happy ending.”
SomeRandomWordsto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that chiropractors are not medical doctors and "Systematic reviews... have found no evidence that chiropractic manipulation is effective"3·1 year agoI can’t believe I know this, but RubMaps used to (might still be?) a thing. If you looked at the outside of them on Google Maps you could very quickly start to pick up on the patterns among the listed locations.
It’s wild because in a lot of cases the FDA does have jurisdiction over the apps, they just choose not to check them.

SomeRandomWordsto Programming@programming.dev•Mozilla will move Firefox development from Mercurial to Microsoft’s GitHub2·2 years agoI keep hearing people only on Lemmy bring up Gitea but I haven’t really heard of it otherwise. What’s the appeal and what’s keeping it locked away with the Lemmy community?

Microsoft doesn’t active go around checking that you’re using the community editions of their products at very small companies, but as soon as they catch wind that you might be using them at a large company they’ll run an audit.

People absolutely think something about it when it happens, and hell sometimes the government even does something about it (as demonstrated in the article you linked). Just a whole lot of us would argue they don’t do enough about it.

Curious, did buying groceries more end up costing more?
When I switched from buying in bulk periodically to buying small more often, I can say that my first few weeks definitely cost more. I had a mindset about buying for X weeks out instead of X days out that took a bit to shake. In the process I realized how much food waste I was having by purchasing in bulk and not fully using everything, and I naturally switched to purchasing less at the grocery store. Both because it meant carrying less home but also because it was cheaper. Now I buy more or less exactly what I need and I can say on average my grocery spending is less now (avg monthly) than it was when I was buying in bulk.

A whole lotta people in this thread who don’t want to acknowledge that this dude is trash, no matter how good or bad their music is.
I wish this was as straight forward as this tries to make it. In the US there has been a shift to re-designate colleges as universities based on the number of graduate and non-graduate programs, requiring at least one of each as far as I can tell. The side effect is that a lot of state colleges are now state universities with individual “colleges” within them for the specific program groups.
Which is to say that some state colleges were correctly rebranded as universities, but you can go to a state college and have it be a university.
(And yes, even further exceptions exist and I look forward to being enlightened about the various universities in the middle of nowhere serving 15 people.)
Samsung S22 Ultra, pretty sure it’s not allowed on the latest Android by the Google Play Store because it was compiled as 32 bit and not 64 bit. You can probably side load it just fine.
