who said this is a competition? this makes no sense. respect is not a one way street. if the parent can’t pay attention to the person they wanted to meet with, that’s not quite respectful. your initial comment indicates clearly that OP does not deserve attention and respect in your opinion, and that it is only OP (who was given the offer) who must pay attention to their partner
tldr: you are the asshole if you don’t want to meet. people with young kids need you, they deserve meeting with you! look how lonely they are, you cannot just decline!
If you don’t want to meet her with the kids, there’s little point in meeting her at all.
why does so many people react like this is a date?
I don’t know your culture, but where I live people who meet pay attention to each other. we call this “respect” and “being interested”
Yes you’re the AH.
I’m pretty sure there is a rule on the internet that if someone starts with this, at least the person saying it is an AH.
That’s not a friend.
that’s quite obvious, mr entitled parent, they are acquintances. facebook has destroyed people’s vocabulary.
Why not just say no.
because why not be in touch with old classmates or colleagues sometimes? you don’t have to decline just because they are not a friend! and people say it’s me who is “anti-social”
Also, why mention baby daddies?
wat?
suspiciously specific
I cant comment on dead platform, but did you register on instagram for this reason, or was that an old account? in the former case you don’t have one less accounts. but then one could also argue whether deleting one meta service account and registering another makes a difference
that’s not progress, it is trend. in zero ways it is better.
this is not a kyc requirement imposed on facebook based on laws, but by facebook based on their ToS.
nah don’t worry, they’ll be fine
that’s a problem too, but the discussion was about interacting with google. fuck them for showing ads down our throats, but at least they don’t know who watches the video (when using a proxy like invidious), and so they can’t build a profile of you, and they can’t bombard you with tailored manipulative ads either, just something possibly totally irrelevant.
not just AI systems, but implants too. we need to do everything to make sure it won’t become a necessity, on any level, in any circumstance. but I fear that won’t be enough.
not “no wifi”. It’s “no any kind of wireless connections” and even then I’ll say no.

with every section it just became worse
you’ll be woken up by the sirens though. that is, if they work
bruh! take this, computer!! I didn’t want to search them anyway!!!
I do the same thing too all the time
just like their smartphones and networking devices, right?
and not just through the american archive.org.
but I wpuld say if you can’t hold all the driver files yourself, keeping a list of sha256 hashes or better of them could be worth it too, to later verify their authenticity if you find it somewhere. its also easier to search by hash sometimes
that’s because phone makers were pumping out garbage chargers with bare minimum performance for every single phone, isn’t it?
