ROFLMAO - looks like they had a hissy fit.
The main issues (as my best lesbian friend once chimed in with me) are the people who are rather too quick to find offence, in an aggressive way, rather than offer a correction or an explanation, or simply engage in some discussion to confirm their initial suspicions.
Haha marketing is what it is… a joke I made up some 30 years ago was that, despite what we see on the surface - the evidence proves that women are disgusting, dirty, fat, ugly animals that need a vast array of products to be created so that they can go outside without offending everyone…
So yes, you’re right to find this ridiculous and offensive - but at the heart of it is simple greed, which is the real meaning of the American Dream.
You’re joking, right?
My computer is set to 1. Warn me at 9.25 to accept or cancel suspension at 9.30. 2. Set volume to 10% and suspend at 9.30 (just in case it gets woken up, I once woke it up at 4am and had a radio application wake up the family). 3. RTC Wake set to 5.59 4. 6.25am my wakeup music plays.
I have suspend, also hybrid - where it will suspend, and after a certain time (useful for laptops, mine’s set for 12 hours so I never hit this unless I go on holiday) it’ll hibernate.
Fundamental error - as usual with Windows news.
These ‘Start Menu Ads’ aren’t rolling out to everyone, I have zero ‘Start Menu Ads’. In fact, I have Zero Ads in my operating system.
Why must Windows news always assume that everyone runs Windows? Isn’t this the main bug with all operating systems?
I was watching an interesting debate at Oxford University the other day - they pointed out that in countries where Religion is taken more seriously, the people are less happy and more corrupt.
The best countries, Eurpean countries with great social care and low unemployment, are countries where religion dies out - people don’t care because they’re happy.
USA is very special, the MOST religious (except for our famous Middle Eastern Muslim and Jewish countries) and the MOST violent (same exceptions).
When Religion is high on the agenda, you know it means there’s a ton of trouble… and with the USA, the leader of the country is effectively the leader of the Religion also.
There are a couple of things here… firstly you’re thinking about him being with someone else - that’s not just a ‘breakup’, that’s worse.
Anyway, I found relaxing to be difficult so I went out and did stuff - also I just met lots of friends and tried not to be on my own. During my last breakup, I had someone to meet every day after work for a week - and that put some distance which made it easier.
Should there also be entries to cover Ginger, Blonde, Black, or a million other specific labels which could be targeted?
Isn’t singling out Transphobia a form of predjudice? Shouild we also add to the list a few thousand other terms which some people find ‘edgy’?
That all depends on how, and the context in which it’s done. My first girlfriend would spend hours tickling my back in between sessions - I never forgot those sunny days.
Now with more aggressive tickling - it is akin to a violent attack, and my father used to tickle me until I couldn’t stand it, and then push some more. Often it ended with me in tears… so with my son, sometimes I’ll grab a foot and start tickling it like mad - but I have a MUCH shorter cutoff time so that it ends with him laughing.
So it’s not simple - but consent is a huge issue.
Alternatives to Google, to YouTube, Reddit, Twitter, Facebook, Messenger, alternatives to Chromium/Chrome browsers - these are important things to be aware of.
SearXNG has search handled for me - scraping Bing and Google amongst others (and often I see Google results are low down on my list).
Upvotes are useful for determining what people like and dislike so you can sort posts and comments.
Karma is just a bad way to have someone crucified for expressing an unpopular opinion… anyone remember COVID?
Whatever your opinion (and mine was unpopular - still is, as many Thai’s STILL wear masks in the street - even if they’re walking down the middle of an empty street FFS) a recent study has proven me right - the lockdown did sweet FA (maybe a 1% reduction in deaths from COVID, but an increase from 1.5% to 40% in mental disorders reported in 18-45 year old people and MASSIVE economic and educational damage.
Hell yeah, bring on a bit of nude pussy!!!
When you need a bit more, there are a couple of ways you can do a quick search/copy/paste as new jokes/memes pop up and you get votes for the Lolz. Easy to farm a couple of hundred or more each time.
However, by talking sense in r/Thailand (i.e. from a perspective of someone who actually LIVES here) and call out stupid bullshit posts from wannabes (people who know everything about a country after a week’s holiday in a whore hole) and you’ll get a hundred downvotes in ten seconds.
Karma is crap.
Not really - as the weeks and months go by, people will gravitate… and individual groups can update their names/descriptions if they become aware of a similar instance.
Oh, ok - I missed something.
I started by looking at BeeHaw from a link - but couldn’t get in.
Then Lemmy.ml, which promptly failed to do much of anything, I actually made 5 accounts with the same username in Bitwarden (just join, then search up my BendyLemmy and ‘auto-fill and save’…).
When Lemmy.world stopped responding (last week I also got tons of errors with Lemmy.ml) I just took a back seat, did something else, then spotted several ‘upgraded!!!’ posts in my feeds.
Please help, I can’t for the life of me work out how to Sign Up!!!
GTFO!
Please, anyone that dumb - force them to stay on Reddit. Don’t let them in!!!
Most movies and tv shows are from books, and reading the book is 99.5% better.
Think of talking Bladerunner movie and doing it as a 30 minute short.
r/watchitfortheplot was about my top sub TBH.
Haha.
I find the best way to handle withdrawal is to change your habit. I spent time grabbing a few books, and spent a few days with my Kindle or with Foliate fullscreen on my HDTV.
So before, I’d probably spend time answering r/firefox, looking at r/firefoxcss - now I start with 1/2 hour reading Great Expectations. After reading a chapter, I play the same chapter via audiobook - meanwhile I have a couple of TV/Movie versions queued up to watch after finishing reading.
After that I’d probably get into some DadJokes - I can do that on https://lemmy.world/c/dadjokes
Next up, an hour reading The Midnight Library
Is this thread intended for 1. Android/mobile users 2. iOS/mobile users 3. People with computers/mouse/keyboard or what? It seems most Lemmy threads are pretty exclusively aimed at mobile users.
