I don't want those fuckers anywhere near my kids. Not only are they fucking nuts, but this is the kind of shit that always winds up with a bunch of pedos "protecting the children"
PARIS, Sept 12 (Reuters) - Apple must stop selling its iPhone 12 model in France due to above-threshold radiation levels, France’s junior minister for the digital economy told newspaper Le Parisien in an interview published on Tuesday....
The mini, due to it's small size and easy to boof design I think would make it the most cancerous of the designs.
Imagine, finally being able to boof your iphone and then the battery goes full spicy pillow and pops. And the inside of the battery is where the real cancer magic happens.
"Oh c'mon. It's not like that. I just wanna talk. We can talk about anything. The internet, attractive females, the matrix, the political assassination of your favorite celebrity. Anything."
So I’ve switched to lemmy since the reddit meltdown started, experienced quite some withdrawal symptoms, occasionally turned back to reddit, more often logged out than logged in. Now I am merely using Lemmy occasionally and by far not as often as I used reddit before. No more doom scrolling....
Depending on which subs you see, the assholes have won. Holy shit the amount of right wing bullshit that got into the place. Like wallstreet silver. I didn't much give a shit before it started looking like the front page of diet stormfront.
The remaining mods are at large, S class window lickers and ableist who have been applying to get a position for years and just now get their chance to goatse the corpse of what was once a great website. Started seeing tons of people getting banned for the most petty of shit. Buddy of mine got a 30 day ban for linking another sub reddit in his comment.
Of course, I got banned too. on my 12th cake day no less, for saying a kids attitude was going to get him beat up in high school or worse.
But if anything, there are so many folks out there that can say they were there before they got spez'd and the assholes took over. It was nice for a while, but in the end, fuck reddit.
The Air Quality Index in my town is currently 260 (very unhealthy) due to a surge in wildfires in western Canada and the northwest US. There are additional smaller fires not shown on this map at this zoom level....
Sorry guys. Shit's kinda fucked up here, but there are some real heroes getting busy up here. We're almost out of stuff to burn I think, and people keep stealing fire fighters gear to try and save their own property so yeah, at this rate, climate will win shortly and there won't be anything left soonish.
Oh no. This is terrible. Granted X was a safe place for assholes, haters, nazis and those who obviously have had violent and repeated harsh brain trauma that shouldn't have ever happened, but so much laughter comes from the bullshit Cusk has pulled I don't know if the internet will ever recover.
Everything this dude does turns to memes of failure.
The former president’s apparent decision to skip the first debate is a major affront both to the Republican National Committee and to Fox News, which is hosting the event.
And it's at this point where you close your eyes, let the filter fly and hope whatever inappropriate crap that comes out is either worth a laugh or stupid enough to end this conversation.
Now that's the guy i want teaching my kids History. Sure, there are more effective ways of teaching it. But if my kid comes home calling the south "the small dick energy failure squibs of the civil wars losing team" after school, I'd be pretty alright with that.
Bahahaha, mother fuckers think that eternal life sounds great? Some of us are in a hurry to get done this one, what in the hell gives them any idea making it longer is a selling point?
Unless there's a jar, my head and human flakes when it's done, I'd like it to be just done, thanks.
So, I will make no secret that I'm rolling my eyes at all of that marketing stuff that goes up every year. But I've been thinking, it doesn't have to be so superficial and pointless. Maybe there's some rare exception out there that took the opportunity to say or do something meaningful....
Not so much a company, but the small town I grew up in had pride days. It was not a real big or fantastic affair, but it was fun, and lots of people were out in the pride gear that I would have never thought for a second would attend a pride event. Even the hillbilly term of "gays days" was tossed around insert the redneck with good intentions meme by older boomer guys as they waited for rainbow soft serve.
I left when I was twenty. Even before then, constantly trying to get away from the redneck small town. My childhood here was miserable as a poc and as someone who was/is as socially well adjusted as bum pickles. Racism, Phobias for each color of a skittle, and a very entitled population where being a hate filled asshole was all but encouraged.
BUT! 23 years later i find myself coming back. Only been back a couple months and it seems like a much friendlier place than i remember and the fact that this event was in the downtown, advertised and endorsed by all the local shops, left me speechless. This is not the same place I left, but replaced by a much more optimistic and caring community.
And as a jaded old dude, the town as a whole, recognizing and celebrating, well that was meaningful as hell to me, and I am sure many of the kids who had to stay deep closeted because of the town they lived in, so many years ago.
I keep going back. Not the level of user before all this spez is a twat shit, but enough that I still cannot deny I have an addiction.
What I have noticed is that the quality of content and users has plummeted. Tons of the people who always complained about reddit being an echo chamber and the worst place in the world for free speech are now louder than ever posting some pretty racist shit and and it just gets worse from there.
Even google users have been reported as upset with the content that is coming up in searches.
Oh dude, what you need to do is start collecting video games.
As I grew up i found myself still playing. Not wanting to stop. Looking at it from a far more mature perspective than i ever had before and thought "Fuck it, horde video games" and these days it is on the same level as those who collect comic books. Can be seen as an albeit childish hobby, but is recognized as also an investment. I mean, my collection of video games is insured for more than new sedan.
Much like dad who collected hot wheels, mom has hutch of ultra expensive china, you have your games and can explain and tell stories in much greater and entertaining details than any tin car. I mean, explain Last of us, or Hentai vs. Evil, it's gonna be a better story than "It's a tbird"
Two U.S. food companies have received the go-ahead to sell chicken grown from cultivated animal cells in a production facility. It's the first time meat grown this way will be sold in the U.S.
How many times would one have to say "I learned everything i needed to know about mass media piracy from u/spez on reddit" for google to really work its magic?
I remember sitting in malls eating vanilla pudding out of miracle whip jars for the same effect. Windex bottle full of of blue kool aid.
If you're lucky one of your friends had a camera or a disposable. There was barely internet. So when you did stupid shit like that, you knew it was stupid and that's why the guard rushes you out the door as you leave a trail of pudding that has been leaking/falling from your chin due to the inability to keep it in your mouth from laughter and a choke hold.
It makes me so happy people still actively do shit like that. Only way more clever and tactful.
Our first computer was an IBM, and the first pc game that i remember is called Kindergarten, i wish i remembered more about it though, i would love to watch on youtube and get a nostalgia boost haha
No lie, I thought the whole time that smug asshole was gonna show up online, or twatting away on the Internets true haven for hate speech, and say he bought reddit or was trying to.
I always thought it was a pretty smart idea on Reddit's side to have the posts and comments be automatically upvoted by their author, saving them the tough choice between playing fair or boosting their initial reach a little; and if you had particularly low self-esteem, this enabled you to reduce your own points by not one, but...
"As reddit user begin to learn and appreciate their new habitats, we see some have already found usage of existing systems to pat themselves on the back. While not unexpected, how quickly, and efficiently they have done so is really remarkable. This digital nature relocation of the Reddit population truly has been fascinating"
A certain stage of development has ended - a prototype was created that allowed me to verify whether such a form makes sense in the #fediverse. Until now, it was a project that I developed in my free time. Now, thanks to the great people from Nlnet, I will be able to devote much more time to it. This time, we have already...
As a new comer, seeing shit like this is refreshing and may be wildly addictive. Road maps, open communication, user base oriented initiatives. This is like heroin when the only update you got from reddit usually was the last one you can't remember them sending.
I for one am excited to see this, and look forward to being along for the ride.
