These shows are both for morons who think this is how nerds act.

It DO! Which one am I mixing it up with then? Briar?

“Protect the kids!” - always the first thing they use.

SimpleX doesn’t even have a desktop client. IT DO! Discord is mostly used for gaming.

It says information used for age checks will not be stored by Discord or the verification company.

Bullshit. Every time some bitch-ass company says this, 4-5 years later they’re like “we were hacked, someone took everyone’s photo IDs!”

The moment this is attempted is the moment I’m no longer on discord.

I’m okay with seeing it from time to time - but when my /all would get flooded with PAGES, and PAGES of the stuff with no normal articles in between, I started muting those users.

Why? It’s too much bandwidth, too much upkeep, I already modded/ran communities larger than lemmy; I DON’T want to do it again, especially if I’m paying out of pocket for it. Having to deal with whiny cry-bitches when you DON’T ban something that they don’t like it almost as bad as having the stuff banned in the first place.

Nope. They’re federated, so no reason they wouldn’t show unless you turn all NSFW stuff off.

Nah fuck that. Mods are power hungry fat morons who exert the editorial discretion of a wet noodle. Almost every community in the fediverse is full of this crap. Things aren’t removed because they’re harmful, they’re removed because some mod disagrees.

There’s also the problem with every instance admin having access to deeper internals; I’m waiting for the day people start getting banned for upvoting the wrong thing.

I found that a total of like 5 people post basically all of the lemmynsfw stuff. Once I blocked them, it almost all went away. Pretty sure the internet is nothing but bots now.

Also, if you’re on the internet expecting all sunshine and rainbows – leave now. The internet is not a place for that. Everything now is rage-bait designed to get more clicks, and the internet has always been the wild west with major hostilities all the time. It’s not a good place to spend your time if you’re looking to relax.

This is a gun control article disguised as a big-oil article.

The lack of liability in terms of gun control makes sense. Guns are designed to kill people. Literally what they are designed for. It doesn’t make sense to hold gun manufacturers liable for someone using their guns to kill someone innocent, as that was not its intended purpose. When used correctly, they’re safe and effective at power equalization.

I read the article hoping they’d … give SOMETHING about how this is supposed to apply to oil companies, but…there’s nothing.

How in hell COULD you apply this to big oil? It doesn’t many any sense at all. The article doesn’t explain it either. The WHOLE article is just about guns.

CRT displays with old pixel art are something I taught her about very early on. Scanlines made things look different; and art looked better on CRTs because they were designed with them in mind.

I mean, I get it – Digital either works or it doesn’t. Analog provides all of that scratchy mess on the screen, distorted audio, etc.

I tried getting the 13yr old a Miyoo Mini Plus; and she said she didn’t want it because it wasn’t about the games - she wanted a real GBC. >_>

My 13yr old collects Tamagotchis, and my 17yr old watches VHS tapes because she likes analog horror. So…yeah, I’m already there.

Something is awfully weird here, because Linux literally runs the worlds infrastructure for the internet. It is not unstable by any stretch of the imagination. Something you’re doing between all distros has got to be the culprit - something you do differently than other people.
