People got depressed with the constant (us) politics barrage and jumped on a cat picture post, then started to post their own cats.

Also, cats are possibly the only thing on the Internet that rivals porn in popularity, so lots of upvotes and OC posts going around

I am concerned that most users won’t understand that either

thats only 39 hamster balls, 0/10

We see this and think of an amazing and essential public service. A capitalist sees this and tries to find a way to make money with it, and the first step is to ruin the free product.

Personally i don’t mind the communism as much (I share many of its beliefs and goals) as the tankieism.

No, China and Russia are not role models but hostile actors. No, their imperialist bullshit and human rights violations or straight up war crimes aren’t justified because the west did a thing that one time and it was also evil. No, the russian kleptocracy and chinese state capitalism are not socialism or communism.

“always” in this case is when you have two or more gpus in your system, which limits the ability to “just” run a vm considerably.

First thing NK does i can get behind

My condolences… do you guys like, work at night? 44C sounds completely intolerable to me lol

Fucking 33C today here in germany. I hope every climate change denier has to spend a week doing manual labor in this insanity

I mean, I think that on basically any advertisement I see. “Why the fuck does anyone buy this shit? It is a literal attempt to get at your money”.

But here we are, ads are everywhere and possibly the most pervasive and intrusive concept we have ever come up with as a species. They get crammed into everything, seep into every place they weren’t before, despite people overwhelmingly hating them.

Yet someone must be eating them up.

i have a very sensitive nose, and let me tell you i have not met a single person who says of themselves they don’t smell and actually don’t, they absolutely do. We are just used to our own and dont register it unless it gets intense.

I’m not saying you should bathe in perfume or obsessively rinse your scalp with bleach, just that if people go several days without using soap on themselves I 100% always smell them. For hair it isn’t much different.

If you do not apply some sort of (proven) cleaning agent to your hair on a reasonably frequent basis, i dont care how in touch with nature and your primal self you are, you stink. If you dont want to deal with the maintenance cut it off, rocking the wrecking ball aesthetic is pretty great actually.

Who’s down for a quick bike ride?

The point was that some sites neglect to develop for Firefox, and simply tell Firefox users to get chrome instead. Meanwhile Firefox works in most cases perfectly fine without any doing on the website’s part if it is simply duped into believing that the firefox user is just a plain old chrome user as expected. Doesn’t work for everything, but almost.

I read that most sites work just fine if you spoof your user agent to windows and standard chrome

I certainly dont blame them, I just made the switch from windows myself a few months ago and have been amazed by my problem free experience.

Perhaps it isnt as effortless for everyone depending on the hardware, I have to concede, but my experience has been nothing but brilliant. My biggest gripe so far has been that the open source rgb controller needs to be set manually for my keyboard (which isnt much of a gripe really).

Let me preach you the gospel of

A user friendly, steam OS like distro specifically made for gaming. About as difficult to set up as a new smartphone, and comes with all the goods needed for gaming preinstalled, like steam, wine (lutris), and various other compatibility features.

It is also an immutable distro, which essentially means you can’t break your system*. If you mess something up you can simply roll back to an earlier configuration.

*you certainly still can, but you would have to actively try

I had the same issue when initially coming to Lemmy, and made several accounts before I got so annoyed I did the research and chose an instance specifically for its federation/defederation policies; which led me to where I am now.

Lemmy.zip has defederated only illegal content such as csam and gore, as well as meta because fuck corporate.

I just generally dislike the idea of an arbitrary censorship list being applied to my content feed, I can choose and block myself.

The smoked marinara dipping sauce is a regional favorite, complementary offered at all meals to the hotel’s guests.

After inhaling thc vapors purely for recreation of course

The issue is 3 years old, I honestly dont know why it is being dredged up again. I also dont know why any of this matters, use something else if you care about the dev beliefs some years ago.
