Lemmy has been great. Only been on about a week, haven't missed Reddit even a litte, and I was a friggin' addict. Mastodon too, been on there for a few years but I don't use it much, I was off Twitter long before that even ca

Anyone who has spent a good chunk of their life trying to keep things as minimal as possible after being “inspired” by such articles can understand the reaction. There’s no reason a sensible comment, even if it’s a bit emotionally charged,

Having something on my face all day and looking like a minor burn victim for an hour after isn’t worth all the space in the universe.

I know very smart, fly-over state born and raised, right leaning individuals, I don't know anyone that calls them rednecks. It's meant to mean uneducated, violent, rapey, racist, fake religious, fake patriot, asshole. The aforemen

Lemmy has been great. I went SDF as a host. Never going back to Reddit. I left Twitter almost a decade ago so I can’t compare to mastodon but that’s been really nice too.

All Google has to do is remove the dependency on the users browser from the "advertising" system. No other form of advertising in history required users to partake in the process of displaying the ad. The only reason we can block

I'm a family premium member. After the recent price hike, it's the most expensive streaming plan I have, by a long shot. uBO does so much more than block ads and I have a no-exceptions policy on whitelisting, even when I'm pa

Seems to only be focusing on mean drunks. I've never had the desire to do any of those things, drunk or sober, and I'm drunk almost every night.

OT: Firefox just asked me if login.microsoftonline.com should be allowed to use it's cookies on teams.microsoft.com. I've never seen a prompt like that before. I like it. Is it a new feature?

IME, the accidental inefficiencies aren't a huge problem. What I hate about some ORMs is that they want to be considered the foundation of a system or, worse, multiple systems, rather than just a tool for implementing pesky infrastruct

Jon Stewart didn't get shunned for talking about it at the time. One might think it's just because he's lefty, but that's only partially true. It's specifically because he wasn't also giggling at the phrase lik

Because it still doesn't provide enough time to verify or refute any claims being made, especially when one sides strategy is to make a barrage of claims to trip up the other for as long as possible. If most people saw the use of that

I think their point was that you absolutely should not trust politicians, policy makers, Youtube/Reddit moderators, etc. They're the ones using phrases like "trust the science". Fauci is a scientist but he's also a

While I do greatly prefer the long-form discussion shows over the short edited segments on network tv, what I'd really love to see become popular, in general, but especially in politics, is super-long-form, unedited discussion in text,

Wow, I got that work. Took about 20 tries but I could see what you meant from the way the page visibly loads. F5. Wait for it... ESC. If you see the "Get The Full Story" banner, repeat with a different timing between F5 and ESC.

Using the phrase “world view” has become a direct indicator of bigotry, misogyny, fascism, and other mindsets that are a real threat to basic human rights. I suggest finding a new euphemism.
