Likely owns a vending machine business. They’re easier to return than a handful of quarters if someone uses a 5 dollar bill to buy something for a buck and change.
Question is the same as the post title. I’m using Connect on mobile and very often I’ll click on a thumbnail for an image, the post will open and the image will appear briefly before turning into a broken link. Just wondering if it’s something specific to Lemmy, if it’s just Connect, or if it’s something I’m doing?
This feels like culling the herd with extra steps. Like… Someone smart was like… Hey, we need to get rid of dumb people. How do we do that? Oh, I know… Make a place where the dumb people really want to go by relaxing laws that protect people from being dumb. Then, we’ll make the dummies believe they’re the smart and patriotic ones for moving there. When they all wind up in this insane distopia, let’s just… Infect them with measles and tell them it’s fine! As long as Facebook and a bunch of weirdo authority figures reinforce their dumb feelings of being smart, in the end, we won’t even need a genocidal dictator or gas chambers! The dummies will do the job for us!
I mean… it’s just a thought. That’s not really what’s happening…
I can almost get it, when I watch the state and federal government take 30 percent or more of the money I earned, so they can give it to clowns like Trump and a Biden to do stupid shit that I don’t agree with. And don’t give me any, “be the change you want to see!”, bullshit either. The fact of the matter is, if you’ve got the millions, you can do what you want, pay the fine, bribe the officials to look the other way, and generally be left the fuck alone. If you don’t, and you’ve never been given the tools and/or opportunity to get out from under living paycheck to paycheck to survive, it’s easy to understand the mental gymnastics necessary to believe in this shit. It’s ignorant speak for, “leave me the fuck alone”. Let me be clear that I fully understand and agree with the idea that this idiot wants to steal from a utility company… I’m just saying, if you don’t have the ability, resources, or education to find a place where you can live “off the grid”, looking for magical solutions isn’t hard to understand.
Shit, Disney trained me to believe that all I need to do is wish upon a star…
I stand corrected. “Poisoning” his search results with videos making him look stupid is probably one of the best ideas I’ve heard. Thanks for the education!
I’ve not yet met a device whose Bluetooth name i couldn’t change. Just Google, “How do I change the Bluetooth name on “x device”?”, and substitute, “x device”, with the manufacturer, make, and model of the device whose Bluetooth name you want to change. I believe in you.
