@jdr@lemmy.ml @Furbag@lemmy.world Wait, that wiktionary explanation seems weird too. I always thought of homie as being a derivative of “homeboy” or “homegirl”. I could be wrong, but I definitely started hearing homie after those two and have always thought that they were connected. In fact, the wiktionary page for homeboy lists homie as a related term, so to me it seems like the two pages are contradicting each other.
Yes, this is the kind of counter-example I was thinking of as well, as opposed to rent-seeking.
Got it, thanks. I agree that those two things are pretty different from each other.
There’s a pretty wide range of things that are considered passive income. The examples you listed are some of them, and I agree that they are or can be exploitative, but there are many (particularly the ones where someone benefits from monetizing their own creations) that I wouldn’t.
Edit: I’m not trying to give you a hard time. I was trying to better understand what you were saying.
I think that for us to evaluate this one you would have to give an example of a similar act (singer/songwriter/performer) who is not overrated or even underrated in your opinion.
I think this needs a bit more explanation. I have a feeling that you are thinking of some specific examples of passive income that would qualify as labor appropriation (or some other type of exploitation), while there are examples of passive income that aren’t.
Yeah, I wonder that too, especially because I had never heard of it until a couple days ago.
This reminds me that I think it was on Reddit that at some point I found a Mormon porn community.
I didn’t know that, thanks.
Just fyi, here are some other alternatives (note that I haven’t tried any of them, not even matrix, but I’ve heard of these as open alternatives to Discord):
Someone had made a bypass hack that didn’t even need 3D anything, only generated metadata, but the ID vendor has patched it: https://age-verifier.kibty.town/

No worries, thanks!
Honest question, is the ActiveDirectory PowerShell module available for Linux PowerShell? I can’t seem to find a clear answer from a brief search.
Discord does work, but i remember that maintaining it updated was a pain in the ass.
It may be better to run it as a Flatpak. There’s not only an official Flatpak for it, but also various third-party clients available too: https://flathub.org/en/apps/search?q=discord
The rdp client was renamed “Windows App”, remember?
Wait, let me say that this is not accurate without defending Microsoft (fuck them). The rdp client hasn’t been renamed, to my knowledge. What was renamed to Windows app was the other product very confusingly named “remote desktop client”, which was a Microsoft Store app meant to access things like Azure Virtual Desktop, their cloud Windows service, etc. Yes, incredibly confusing product naming from Microsoft, as usual.
Caveat that this only applies to USB chargers. If you find some random non-USB, old-school type charger (like the ones with the round connectors) that fits your device, don’t plug it in until you’re sure that the voltage and polarity are correct.
