thank you sir. that seems to have done it and looks like its the capitals in my username that caused the issue. was able to login with my username.

sorta but someone who works for a living who can no longer work do to age is not going to get richer by living longer.

thats not how it works. with the super rich the shorter your parents life the sooner you become rich.

I actually did the password reset initially even though it made no sense when it says “No account exists with that user name.” and I tried again and still get “No account exists with that user name.” Is there a way to give it my email and get my username back. I mean I use bitwarden and create the login in bitwarden and then use its paste feature when making the account in order to avoid typos. I also did try using my email as a username but I get the same “No account exists with that user name.” message.

hey thanks. apreciate that. I have been meaning to get on matrix but have not yet.

oh my issue is with piefed.social. Said my application is approved but it does not recognize my username and it directs you to reply to the email with issues which bounces because its a no reply email. So I think its just the domain that is not really ready for signups.

Ive had issues signing up for piefed but its not exactly out of beta I think.

yeah and its sorta silly to even pretend that there is private ownership of land given property tax and regulations. The truth is the state owns the land that it holds by military might and the citizens rent portions for their needs.

yeah its the same with patent. I often think both should only be given to individuals and entities should not be able to have them.

Thing is that copywrite did serve a purpose and was for like 20 years before disney got it extended to the nth degree. The idea was the authors had a chance to make money but were expected to be prolific enough to have more writings by the time 20 years was over. I would like to see with patents that once you get one you have a limited time to go to market. Maybe 10 years and if you product is ever not available for purchase (at a cost equivalent to the average cost accounted for inflation or something) you lose the patent so others can produce it. So like stop making an attachment for a product and now anyone can.

I mean I have not been paying much attention except for church of thighentology but just checked there and a quick scroll or two showed different people posting.

are you blocking the actual communities because like I don’t know what might be wrong with my feed but I don’t even think I have seen 10 communitites. are you maybe just blocking users?

Probably canada beause I like toronto because you can have your dog on busses and trains. for degree I guess I would go math with some minors and likely work in tech given the way things are nowadays.

I had heard about the fediverse at various times and when the api thing hit on reddit I checked it out and found it had matured nicely. Tried lemmy but liked kbin better but then something happened to earnest (still not exactly sure and wonder about it) so moved to an mbin instance. May switch to piefed but its still sorta finding itself and it takes me awhile to evaluate things when im not pushed.

I mean abstract ideas, thoughts, and consciousness come from the brain and emotions come from our endocrine system. So I don’t really see a difference here. That being said. Oh, life. It’s bigger. It’s bigger than you and you are not me…

Likely it would be from a lethal dose of radiation I would endure while fixing a warp drive that was desperately needed.

Dual seems rather limited. I mean unitarians and bahai combine more than two.

I really feel it should not be necessary to ask them to site all sources though. It should be default behavior.

Piers anthony wrote a fantasy series with the idea of it being somewhat educational. It has this thing where the stories take place in different points in history and its like the characters are reincarnated but its not even quite like that. It is that everything that happened in the story has happened to the characters but the time period changes but at any particular point in the stories the characters would remember all the events as taking place in the time period they are currently in. Its hard to describe but I really liked it but I now notice there are five books and I only read the first three.

let me know if wierduncleforaminute becomes a thing.
