LolaCat, in Don't get your hopes too high

There’s no better feeling than making a post to a dead community, and then suddenly tons of posts start flooding in lol.

Fuck Musk, Spez, and Zuck, and throw in Gates and Bezos while you’re at it. Each of them has made their own personal empires of shit.

GreyEyedGhost,

You can’t mention those and not mention Larry Ellison. If it weren’t for him, OpenOffice wouldn’t have forked.

wait explain im confused

NoisyFlake,

The link doesn’t load. What did Gates do that you‘d put him in the same category as the rest?

Gates continued his bullshit well into his philanthrophy days.

And it looks like that the invidious instance that served my original post’s link is temprarily down. So here’s another link.

He is notorious for Microsoft’s anti-competitive practices in the 1990s. But, I wouldn’t put him in that company today. His philanthropy since leaving Microsoft is no joke.

Though what Americans think of as a pretzel is just a sad squiggle of brown dough.

Looks delicious but not overly different from what I’m used to.

My guess is they think you only have the small crunchy ones in the US like these: https://sopuli.xyz/pictrs/image/da54bd14-ef7a-44a2-a8b0-b3087aef4492.jpeg

To be fair, when people in the US think of a “pretzel”, those are the ones they think of. You can buy big bags of those in any supermarket. If you want to get a big, bready pretzel, you have to go to a restaurant.

Holzkohlen,

A restaurant? What about your local bakery? Laugengebäck is amazing, you should eat more of it!

It’s still Bretzel.
Pretzl is like the disabled version of it.

ParsnipWitch,

“The best union organiser is the boss” sort of vibe

I almost had this half-baked thought about the northwestern moose population being separated from the ones in the northeast, but then I remembered that they don't need passports to get into Canada.

Immigration loophole!

Step one: become Moose Step two: cross border unregulated Step three: profit

He DM’d me and told me my elbows are too pointy. 😞

flambonkscious,

That’s a quality example of a lame insult, I think I’ll borrow it

My first reaction upon seeing this picture is “that guy has serious nazi energy” Sure enough, I was right.

I see it too, but does he seriously? I used to go on reddit a lot, but never followed the personalities very closely

BigBananaDealer,
@BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee avatar

i dont think so, but he did edit peoples comments so they agreed with what spez believes

and reddit used to have a running joke of mods and admins being nazis, which the admins also joked about but that was a decade ago

Omega_Haxors,

There are a fair few mods who are genuinely installed by the admins to be fascists, and if any of the other mods complain they get kicked out. Also I have yet to see a single instance of some group in power joking that they’re nazis where they didn’t end up actually being nazis.

saltnotsugar, in I am a problem regardless

Your chances of being shanked by a raccoon are unlikely…but never zero.

TransplantedSconie, in You kids would not remember.

The guy in the photo was raised by black sharecroppers, a target of an assassination, a multimillionaire inventor/carnival worker, and lost it all only to finally find his rhythm after being homeless and destitute.

You’d be gray haired too.

"I also have this somewhat egotistical view that I’m a pretty good leader. I will probably be in charge, or at least not a slave, when push comes to shove.”

In 1995 Steve Martin was 50, so it’s not too far off the mark

Kiosade,

Dude no way, if he was 50 back then he’d be almost eigh— (checks wikipedia) — oh… oh no :(

FUCKRedditMods, in I wonder what they thought of furbies

I’m sure there’s some seagull out there with a 1000-yard stare who went through the most fucked up shit of his life in the 90’s and still remembers it like it was yesterday. He hangs out down by the bars and drinks discarded alcohol out of the trash, trying to forget, and then flies around drunk bumping into things.

The other seagulls look at him and shake their heads with pity “he used to be such a good gull… so full of promise.”

Letstakealook, in A moment of appreciation for a man who is undoubtedly the world's most successful promoter of Lemmy and the fediverse

It really is funny. The only reason I went to reddit is that my phone app for news at the time (2011) took a shit and someone recommended reddit. I downloaded an app and that was the only way I interacted with reddit for over a decade. Then he killed that app and I figured if I’m going to have to adjust to a new app, I’m going elsewhere. What a dumbass.

you got your news from reddit for a decade?

Letstakealook,

You eat pieces of shit for breakfast?
