My favorite thing about Lemmy is that you can comment on an article that’s several hours old and get responses. Reddit was so big that if you didn’t comment on major articles within a couple minutes of being posted, your comment would get buried under a thousand other comments and would never be seen. Commenting became a game of which top level comment you could possibly sneak your comment as a response to, even if it wasn’t really a “response” to what the person had said, just to get your comment seen and have a chance at sparking a discussion.

Yeah, living in Colorado has always been weird hearing that we’re “the west”. We’re about as middle of the country as you can get. 3 states to our west to get to the Pacific, 4 states to the east to get to the Atlantic.

Edit: lol at people downvoting geography

It’s a reference to this Onion article that gets updated with a new date and location every time this happens.

The Onion didn’t get theirs listed until 8 hours after OP though, which is why I’m assuming they just didn’t link the article.

You can’t make those marks without positraction, which was not available on the '64 Buick Skylark

A duck’s quack does not echo. A duck weighs the same as a witch.

Haha I’m guessing he was just in an argumentative mood and assumed all replies would be fighting with him. Sometimes that adrenaline kicks in when you see an Inbox notification.

Lol cracks me up that there are people out there thinking free speech means people have to pay them advertising money no matter what you say.

I just found out that Buckethead has released something like 90 albums this year. The dude is absolutely a machine.

Edit: Looks like it’s actually 99. The crazy bastard released 9 albums in the time it took me to write my comment!

The 99 I mentioned were just FROM THIS YEAR! Dude is absolutely insane!

Why does he always hold his arms straight down with his palms turned in and his fingers slightly spread like that? There’s no way that’s a natural posture, but he looks like that all the time. Did someone coach his posture to try to mimic Trump? Because it looks awful.

That reminded me of a time at work where some testing on our project required opening some large XML files. We were using Notepad++ to open them and format them so we could easily examine them. My boss complained about how bad Notepad++ sucked because it was sooooo slooooow to open.

I checked his computer and it turned out that while he would close Notepad++, he never actually closed the file tabs. So every time he opened a new file, it was adding to the hundreds of open XML files. He was literally opening several GBs of XML files every time he launched the app. Frankly, it made me even more impressed with Notepad++ because I would have assumed most other apps would’ve been crushed.

Same! Usually have to scroll way too far to find Red Alert. Guess that’s a sign that the Fediverse is full of us old folks…

That just reminded me that one pizza place used to deliver $4 pizzas to the dorms back in the day. Damn those were good times.

Pretty sure my cat would still kill me if he had the ability. He’ll be like “Give me pets. Scratch my belly. Now DIE!”

I can’t remember which Republican senator - the old turtle or the closeted bottom - that said something like “if we elect Trump we will be destroyed”.

Do you need a VPN just to watch? I always use a VPN if I’m seeding torrents from my PC, but don’t really want to connect my TV to a VPN.

Many years from now you’ll be on your deathbed, surrounded by loved ones. Before slipping away peacefully, you will share with them your only regret in life… not eating more pizza.

jballs,
@jballs@sh.itjust.works avatar

Exactly. It’s gotta be a variant of “these edibles ain’t shit” or “these edibles are weak as fuck”. Then you have to stand up 30 minutes later and BAM!

Damn, didn’t know Christmas has been creeping into November going back almost 40 years! I thought it was more recent.

I don’t know if this is a genuine photo or a recreation. Having a mouse back then would have been pretty extravagant.

Edit: Never mind, the Macintosh 128K came with a mouse in 1984
