@Blaze well it definitely should stop using everyone's Mastodon posts as topics if I can't even go there to see if my replies are propagating correctly.🤦♂️
Also, I was told that in other countries, specifically with hospital, the article use or absence is a difference of state of being vs just being at the physical location.
Like "going to the hospital" is referring to the physical building but not necessarily for poor health while "going to hospital" is specifically referring to being in poor health and like an ER visit or inpatient stay.
@frog Yes I get that now. I was also explained that in the cases without an article, it's a state of being. Like specifically inpatient stay because of serious health issues not just there to visit or other reasons, if that makes sense. We don't use it differently in the US so that's where the confusion lay.
@davidnjoku Thank you. I didn't understand the difference between the state of being and the physical location. The state of being version isn't really used in the US so that's why it always confused me.
@alex Thank you. I didn't understand the difference between the state of being and the physical location. The state of being version isn't really used in the US so that's why it always confused me.
@thesofafox Thanks, I'll look into revolt. Matrix is definitely not ready for mainstream adoption. It's like Fediverse, right? Gotta pick a server that wont just up and disappear tomorrow?😬
Most people don't wanna deal with that and it's not user friendly unfortunately.😔
@toothpaste_sandwich It's either Lemmy instance or a Mbin instance. They're similar softwares that serve the same purpose but with different features. Mbin is a fork of the defunct Kbin.
I don't know which it is, but it's one of those, not its own thing.
@RxBrad Apparently mine likes to use it as a business deal. They reactivated me and said "this time it's free, but if it happens again, it's $20 for each subsequent reactivation"🙄
Even when they sent the email 2 weeks ago, I rolled my eyes and barely read it. Now that I re-opened it, it actually says that NO action would be taken against my account.😒
@mikemccaffrey I feel like whoever footed the bill for this show got caught up in the "we're gonna show the world how dangerous all flights could possibly be due to pilots being encouraged to hide medical diagnoses" and not think about the liability and danger that they themselves caused by doing so.😬
Social Media fool on multiple platforms. I tend to talk about #Fediverse :fediverse: and it's nuances. Also post #AIart using #Midjourney from time to time. I am your typical hippie and weed :veriweed: smoker. Follow me for a variety of topics like #gaming; comments and opinions on tech news; World news opinions; occasional self-loathing and #depression messages. VERY #ADHD. Sometimes my thoughts aren't organized.
