Lucidlethargy, to memes in When you need to disable ads and give access to the microphone

What do you mean “this stuff exists”? Show me where it exists on a current streaming platform.

Lucidlethargy, to piracy in Youtube Anti-AntiAdblocker uBlock Origin Filter

It’s more than that. Would you devote 1-5% of your PC resources to others while you watch a video, if you could watch a video without ads? Yes. I bet so.

We are able to easily shoulder the burdens of hosting, yet Google wants to dominate us and force us to use their hosting at the psychological cost of being their sponge for anyone’s paid information campaign. YouTube in 2016 was non-stop Trump ads. Non fucking stop.

FUCK Google.

Lucidlethargy, to memes in Double standards or something, I don't know...

I’m confused… Are the only choices hamas or Israel? Is that how people really see things?

I fucking hate this world sometimes.

Fuck you.

Lucidlethargy, to memes in ‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says the Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens

That’s the onion. It’s a satirical website.

Lucidlethargy, to memes in ‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says the Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens

I’ve never heard anyone say this… Is there a quote I missed? Was it a conservative asshole?

Lucidlethargy, to comicstrips in Future Insight – The Jenkins

Lol 10-15% of our income? I’m sorry… But who can afford that? We’re getting so fucked right now by greed in this country…

My power bill was $500 last month for a two bedroom apartment. This is because I live in a city with the highest energy rates in the nation, all because the company and our local governments are absolutely lousy with corruption. They have posted obscene record profits for the last half a decade while everyone in the city suffers.

My rent was also 21% higher this year than it was in 2020. My landlord bought this place a decade ago at a bankruptsy auction, but like, fuck me right? Gatta keep those rates up when the rest of the city goes up.

I also haven’t saved money since around 2019, since I went four years with a 0% raise due to the company I work for struggling. We were bought out by another company with tons of money, but they decided we were overpaid, since they live in a cheaper city.

My story is not unique. My story is not special. I hear a similar one from people every week. Retirement is a luxury most post-boomers will never experience, no matter how hard we work.

Lucidlethargy, to mildlyinteresting in Guinea Pig for sale at the local market

I kind of agree… I’ve been around these things, and they are incredibly stupid.

I guess I’d draw the line around them purely because in western culture these are pets… But I think practically speaking these are a lot better than actual pigs, which are very intelligent.

We have very strange eating habits when you really think about it.

Lucidlethargy, to memes in They never admit they were just wrong

Being a republican means you never have to admit you’re wrong. You just live in a whole other universe where chemtrails turn the frogs gay, and Trump is an innocent, Christ-like patriot.

Lucidlethargy, to memes in Lemmy might, MIGHT have a small bias towards the left

No, we left Reddit because of what Spez did to it.

Leadership is important when it impacts the bottom. Look at Twitter… That wasn’t capitalism, it was Elon Musk.

I’m not propping up capitalism, I’m just pointing out that bad leaders can easily ruin successful and/or good things.

Lucidlethargy, to comicstrips in Lumberjacks vs. Web Developers

I’m a web developer, and I don’t know any peers in my field that look like that.

Like… That’s just a hipster. They mostly live in Oregon. Nothing against that, that’s just where they collect haha.

Lucidlethargy, to memes in I like the web app more.

And if you’re on Android, the free apps that fully function are…

Liftoff (amazing)

Thunder (amazing)

Connect (great, but not sure if it’s open source?)

Summit

Nemmy

Beyond (tried it and didn’t like that it defaults to Lemmy.ml)

Lemmitof (haven’t tried yet)

Lucidlethargy, to mildlyinteresting in In South Korea, some stores carry "one a day" bananas which are packaged in order of ripeness

So this is interesting… if you see a bunch of bananas, you’re not allowed to break one off? Here in the United States, it’s totally acceptable to do this. You can straight up go around and pull one banans off of 7 different bunches, and nobody will even look at you funny.

Lucidlethargy, to mildlyinteresting in In South Korea, some stores carry "one a day" bananas which are packaged in order of ripeness

Yeah, this is true. I feel like those would all ripen at about the same time. You can guess pretty well, but they often seem to ripen together.

Also, they didn’t wrap the stem. Those will ripen quickly, now.

Lucidlethargy, to mildlyinteresting in In South Korea, some stores carry "one a day" bananas which are packaged in order of ripeness

Seriously… Just pick the exact ripeness of each one in any store where I live. Mix and match, it’s totally, 100% socially acceptable to do this.
