Oh god, I just had a flash of a near future where he’s on the US ballot somehow. It wouldn’t be a huge surprise if he found a way. He could change the name of the States to X too!

Tried Sync, Liftoff, Connect and Lemmotif (I think that’s all the free ones on the playstore as of August '23), and I am always preferring Jerboa.

I was looking for Captain Marvel movie content way back when it came out and accidentally clicked on one of those pitiful right-wing, woman-hating nerdbro videos and my suggestions suddenly became quite heavily peppered with similar horrible content. It feels the same thing doesn’t happen with non-conservative content quite so much. I wonder if there’s just so much right-wing and liberal content that the algorithm’s percentage calculations don’t know how to compensate for this sort of political nuance, or is it something more insidious?

I’m from everywhere, man.

I mean, you implied your experience being a part of an organisation that literally kills people for money and destroys whole civilisations wasn’t a negative one. I feel like you don’t see how hostile you actually are just by existing in that state. My words are nothing in comparison.

Your comment doesn’t even make sense in the context of what OP wrote. They didn’t talk about their personal experience at all really. It was more a universal take about awakening to the role of the military in the modern age. I guess, unfortunately for humanity, you are the perfect candidate to wear a uniform.

I also hate the inclusion of the u/spez freakout about employees not wearing reddit colours in public for fear of physical harm. It is a full-on propaganda tactic, in the vein of Elon Musk or Trump’s bullshit. It immediately puts shade on the userbase. These “journalists” should get their shit together and either write about how ridiculously stupid he was to say that or just not present it at all, it’s barely relevant to the article. For anyone who has actually been following along, the way the article presents that tidbit is inane and completely false at best.

Things can change very fast depending on specific circumstances. I hope you’re more wrong than you think.

The problem is the concept of work hasn’t shifted to keep up with the technological reality that has been created. Jobs should slowly be phased out. We need a new economical concept to take hold that doesn’t rely solely on class and fear to make it trundle along. Jobs should be what you do to grow your own fruit and veggies for fun, while the administration and maintenance of basically everything should be left to technology. Wealth and wealth accumulation should no longer exist or be seen as anything other than childish and irrelevant.

I can’t be bothered with all that and just wash everything at 30c on the quickest setting. Though I do also have to do an extra 1400rpm spin cycle to get rid if the excess dampness as my machine only does max 1000rpm at lower temps.

My main washing gauntlet is my drying regimen as I tend to max out the radiator. I hate slow dried clothes if they are not dried outside, as thicker shirts and trousers and the elasticated parts of boxers and thick socks get a nasty damp smell if no radiator is involved (shitty northern europe weather).

I am currently stuck with a super old ipad3 on ios9.3.6 and the only way I have been able to watch youtube on it is through the edge browser, nothing else seems to work. But the version of edge is so old that there aren’t any working extensions. I have jailbroken it with phoenix and installed cydia (both of which suddenly stopped working), but it turns out the cydia app that lets you install older versions of stuff has also been discontinued.

I have never not used some sort of adblocker, I am shocked at how often I have to interact with the device to skip ads. You also have to unfullscreen to be able to skip so sometimes I just let the ads run.

I get that ads keep youtube chugging along but, jesus christ, maybe it shouldn’t be chugging along any longer. I was trying to watch a 40 minute video yesterday and there were double ads basically every 6 minutes! I feel the freedom to place ads wherever you want in your own video has really destroyed the youtube experience for those who can’t or won’t use adblockers.
