They can pretend all they want, but they would have used a different, less abhorrent response and metaphor if they were responding to an old white guy.

And this is exactly the type of people who argue "you can't have diversity of thought any more." I would be happy to discuss with someone the idea that taxes shouldn't be used for healthcare. I don't agree with it, but it isn't the idea that pisses people off. It's the hyperbolic, attention-grabbing way it was said.

No, you're right. Our cat has asthma and her daily use inhaler is much more expensive than the emergency one.

However, my brother is on the same medicine -- he just uses the over the counter nasal spray version. It's MUCH cheaper but I can't figure out how to use nasal spray with a cat 🤣

Yup. They're super cheap and awesome on the rare occasion they go off. If you place them right, you'll even be alerted to tiny leaks like a slow drip from the toilet supply.

Which drug did you look up? Albuterol can be bought for like $10

We had a stove top kettle growing up but I never heard of an electric kettle until I was an adult. First time I saw one was a pretentious dude doing pour over coffee at work.

At this point, why don't the companies who run Chrome derivatives work together to build a fork that evolves separately from Chrome? Edge, Vivaldi, Opera, etc. will never get the marketshare on their own to rival Chrome, but together, they could make a dent with a unified browser engine.

I find LogRocket's blog to be a great variety of software development related topics.

Yup, that's what I use simply out of not changing too many settings when I install an IDE.

Nice font! I've never thought about using a non-monospaced font for coding, although I'm not sure I can articulate why monospace is the default / standard.

I imagine it has to do with the lack of heads up from Reddit. If the app makers had been given six months before needing to pay huge fees, they could have incorporated other sites and transition their users to alternatives. But they had ~30 days notice and would need to shutdown on July 1 and open again when they can support lemmy.
