    I hate to tell you this, but it’s a factory full of children in China. Those tiny fingers can churn out the codes.

      Write them all down on the first day, then just reuse the list. Don’t get caught.

    The people who downvoted this are the same people that I think Puscifer were singing about in “The Remedy”.

    Fun fact those are actually emailed most of the time. MMS format your phonenumber@carrier.tld

    Which is why they can sometimes get delayed for hours

      Deeply incorrect as most carriers have the SMS/MMS gateways disabled by default. Eg, you have to enable that function on Verizon. Also you’d see an email as the sending party, not a phone number/shortcode

        I mean I use the system literally daily but okay I don’t know if we’re an approved sender or what or how that works. I just know it gets sent out in an email.

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
