I think it’s medical and insulting use are obsolete lmao

Blasphemy!

I believe the accept term is “communities” rather than sublemmies

Mostly to differentiate us from Reddit and because the name “subreddit” is based off how reddit used to be one big homepage just called Reddit before splitting into multiple “sub-reddits”

I liked them resolving Kiff and Amy’s kids, mostly cause Amy is a strong enough character to hold her own episodes. I can’t think of any other call backs I enjoyed though

It was delayed cause Jon DiMaggio (Bender’s VO among others) was demanding higher pay for himself and his fellow cast

So about 25,000 peoples minimum drinking water per day per bouy. Not too bad there.

Or the overall average water usage of ~13.2 people (went with the first number cause I ain’t researching things rn)

I’m honestly more impressed that someone took the time to check Yahoo. Even my grandparents stopped using it, and their email is on AOL

Lol, you’re good

This is a Beehaw post, not Hexbear. Heaxbear is filled with sorry ass tankies

Agreed. I don’t have 90s Internet memories like a lot of here, but I do have some early 2000a Internet memories, which I honestly think was better than the 90s Internet cause we’d worked out a lot of the kinks.

Forums were a great place to chat with people about whatever and in 99% of cases, people were polite enough. People talked about this and that. I and others shared their discoveries in video games on sites like GameFAQs (rest in peace, I put up so many Mario Kart DD tips).

People treated interactive sites like they were neighborhoods. Sure, a ton of drama would pop up, same as any neighborhood, and sometimes that drama made modernTwitter drama seem tame, but it stayed within the community the majority of the time and it either got resolved or ended up killing the site. Either way people got over it and moved on.

Nowadays, just keeping up with memes and drama is a full time job. Just 5 years ago I could stay on top of things, now it feels like what’s funny changes the second I see it, and I’m not even old (I was just on the Internet at way too young). Hell, rage comics and impact memes were a think for over a decade.

Lemmy has so far felt like a nice middle ground between the old days of things lasting more than five minutes and people not just immediately being dicks (as long as you block everything LG and Hexbear) plus modern comforts in technology.

Absolutely not surprised. I’ve had multiple friends that worked Geek Squad. All of them have admitted to snooping at least once and most have said their coworkers did it constantly.

Don’t take your computer to Geek Squad, folks. They’re all untrained highschoolers following a script anyways

Oh THATS why it’s called Gentoo!

I knew it was a penguin and I knew about the distro, but I never put the two together

I can’t figure out who does more scare tactic advertising - conservative politicians or VPN companies. I swear all of them want you to believe that Russia and China are watching you personally

The visualization is also horrible. Why the hell aren’t the dots aligned with the words?

Is Casper the low end or is it Irish?

It could go either way

Welcome to the wonderful world of the silicon valley tech era! Everything must be profitable at all costs! Everything must steal every tiny fact about you! Everything must include ! Everything must go through enshittification!

Also Chrome books, Android users that don’t care enough to change browsers, and most people who aren’t wholly in Apple’s ecosystem. Lemmy users are more knowledgeable about tech than probably 90% of the population. The demographics here definitely aren’t representative of the real world

What kind of insects do you survey?

And also, what kind of surveys are we talking, cause that word has too many meanings!

no garlic, no onions

Guess I’ll just fucking suffer then

God I feel this. I’m probably not nearly as bad, but I’d like to not have to carefully analyze what I eat anymore

They were definitely hoping to try and find you posting something illegal on Facebook. People do it all the time for some damn reason
