I don’t know what percentage of women think this way, but I’ve anecdotally seen a fair few of them declare “all men are pigs” or something similar in response to being wronged by someone who happens to be a man. (Not in a mugging/assault type way)

To the lefties: remember that every time you say you “hate all men” or something similar, you’re making the same kind of prejudiced judgments that righties do when they declare all Jews or Muslims to be evil.

To the righties: remember that every time you’re accused of being evil just for being a man, you’re doing the same thing to Jews or Muslims when you say you hate them all.

To the centrists: this isn’t a centrist take. The man-haters on the left are a small minority and the religious and racial bigots on the right are a majority (based on the politicians they elect). Quit being a dipshit and move to the left so we can get single-payer healthcare and stop oppressing minorities.

To the sane individuals: yes, I am on drugs.

AeroLemming,

Imagine how lazy you must be to go to bed early. You should be up doing things. /s (ofc)

AeroLemming,

Right to quiet enjoyment setting up a bowling alley in my living room in an apartment.

AeroLemming,

aaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

AeroLemming,

If it’s normal, why does it bother me so much? The feeling drives me absolutely nuts and I hate it.

To my knowledge, it’s kind of hard to quantify exactly how much information is lost with a normal blurring algorithm (gaussian, box, etc), but it’s usually less than you think. There are certain edge cases where no information is lost at all and the original image can be perfectly reconstructed if it’s simple enough. Even if it’s a normal photo of something complex, a deconvolution algorithm can work seemingly impossible magic on a blurry image without the need for an AI that will hallucinate details.

On the other hand, pixelating part of an image provably removes a large amount of information from that section of the image and no algorithm will be able to de-pixelate something without hallucinating details. Using a big box is the absolute best because it just deletes all information from that part of the image.

ETA: the problem is a lot worse in videos because you can use multiple frames with different offsets to reconstruct a higher quality image even if it’s pixelated.

Louis Rossman/FUTO's YouTube app, GrayJay, now supports Sponsorblock... and shames you if you use it

Seriously this was very surprising. I’ve been experimenting with GrayJay since it was announced and I largely think it’s a pretty sweet app. I know there are concerns over how it isn’t “true open source” but it’s a hell of a lot more open than ReVanced. Plus, I like the general design and philosophy of the app....

AeroLemming,

Instead of not watching them, you can just use SponsorBlock!

I'm currently downloading a show that is on a service to which I subscribe

I have a Galaxy Tab S7 and for a trip to Spain I downloaded some stuff to watch on the flight. When I got on the plane none of the stuff downloaded on Disney+ would play. Maybe an issue with downloading to the SD card? I don’t know, but regardless Disney offers SD card as a download destination so they should make sure it is...

AeroLemming,

Can’t help with music on the phone, but try AntennaPod for podcasts if you’re on Android. It’s FOSS.

AeroLemming,

Just sharing my opinion: I’m not a fan of these kinds of posts. You’re obviously not the asshole and it feels like you just posted this for validation. There is no ambiguity here and the post definitely gives off reddit-esque, “AITA for leaving my boyfriend of 2 months after he cheated on me with 9 people and stole a family heirloom worth $200,000 to fund his heroin addiction?” vibes.

AeroLemming,

Only if the output format is lossy.

AeroLemming,

How does converting to a lossless format cause loss?

AeroLemming,

Oh, I see. That makes total sense. Mobile keyboards have truly wrecked the general population’s ability to use proper grammar. One thing I’ve noticed a lot is that they also tend to insert unwanted apostrophes. For example, typing “its” always corrects to “it’s,” which is very frustrating.

AeroLemming,

Why the fuck does autocorrect randomly capitalize certain words? It’s so irritating. I’ve never had any issue with commas though, so I don’t know where that’s coming from.

AeroLemming,

You are hereby granted external permission to stop cringing at that memory. Some people just react poorly to humor, that’s not on you.

AeroLemming,

I’m GenZ and seeing this shit makes me feel like the boomiest of Boomers. I don’t want your goddamn motherfucking app, you can shove it where the sun don’t shine and take my order the old-fashioned way or not at all.

That is, unless I’m at home ordering delivery and using a centralized app. Having the same interface for every restaurant is so much fucking nicer than trying to figure out the weird quirks of every website or having to call them.

AeroLemming,

I tried to contact my doctor through the online portal and it wasn’t working because those systems have zero quality control. I called them and had to listen to a long-ass pre-recorded message urging me to use the portal that WASN’T FUCKING WORKING before I could go on hold to eventually talk to a person. It’s infuriating.

I have noticed that a lot of leftist memes are just walls of text. Right-wing memes tend to be concise and to the point, often only containing a few short words. They target very different demographics.

Edit: this was meant to roast the right for being simple-minded, but I worded it poorly.

AeroLemming,

And then you never really figure it out because it fucks with your memory too, so you can never review all the amazing ideas you had after you’ve sobered up.

AeroLemming,

I like both. They tell the same joke in different ways and have completely different tones.

Since Brave is apparently absolutely terrible, is Vivaldi any better IF YOU CAN'T USE FIREFOX*? (lemm.ee)

I daily drive Firefox, but more and more websites are starting to break without Chromium, so I still have to occasionally switch to get something working. I was using Ungoogled Chromium until I realized that there was no easy way to update it when that pixel-stealing exploit came out a while back....

AeroLemming,

The issue with boycotting a huge company like Nestlé is that you put in a ton of time and effort while denying yourself lots of useful products and on Nestlé’s end, they lose out on less profit than they bring in in a single minute.

They made $9.7 billion Net income in 2022. That’s over $18,000 EVERY MINUTE. You can’t make a difference and they don’t care. The only ways to enact change are either through the legislative/regulatory route or through the extralegal route.
