Cigarettes should be too expensive for anyone to buy. They ruin a lot of beautiful moments. I hate being at some party and having some idiot forcing these cancer particles into my nose because they're too lazy to go outside to smoke.
It's a bit silly, because this kind of meme can definitely be interpreted as both a bigoted meme and as a sort of "ironic" kinda meme that is quite often posted in LGBT+ circles. It uses a lot of outdated terms like "Transsexual" and "Hermaphrodite", but then also has the more LGBT+ shitpost stuff like "pet walking on keyboard - Other". And indeed the absurdity of asking gender everywhere in the first place. I choose to pick the LGBT+ positive interpretation, but idk whether that's its actual meaning.
WhatsApp is more problematic to leave though. Where I live, it's the default messaging app everyone uses. I haven't texted anyone in ages. And I can also see why it's the default, WhatsApp is just better than the competition. It's end-to-end encrypted, so Meta cannot read your messages directly, it has good markdown-like formatting support, it's has a lot of features, and it's relatively stable.
I've been using Telegram and Signal with friends, but honestly Telegram doesn't exactly feel safer to me, especially with e2e encryption not enabled by default (last time I checked). And Signal is better, but sometimes just a pain to use. No Markdown-like syntax (though formatting is finally possible via GUI), it constantly keeps desyncing devices that I use once every few weeks, and we've had plenty of bugs with not seeing messages of eachother.
Now, I can accept that to a degree, in return for better privacy. But no way in hell are laypeople like my family going to switch. WhatsApp is too good and safe enough to remain dominant.
That was hard to read, damn. I can read German quite well, but the font basically makes the capital letters a pure gamble to me. I guess this is a lesson to always listen to speaking cats lol.
Edit: Like "Der Vater hat's verboten". "Vater" is written more like "Bater" in this font
Damn this looks good. I'll probably get it even though I already have Assetto Corsa and ACC. Thanks for sharing!
I'm quite deep into a second Satisfactory playthrough. My first one was quite some updates ago, so I'm really enjoying all the new stuff like ziplines, drones, hoverpacks and many more things. This time I'm playing with friends, and the multiplayer experience is definitely still very early-access.
Crashes are quite frequent, and we're having plenty of other glitches like stuff not building (instead the hologram just remains), and other desync issues. We also had to ban blueprint saving since every interaction with saving or organizing them seems to have a high crash probability. Luckily we made a couple of nice ones before the ban that we do seem to be able to use safely.
Nevertheless it's great fun though. We're getting to the endgame and are now doing things that I never got to in my first playthrough (and have also changed afaik) like nuclear power. Being with more people also allows the factory to grow way larger, so its insane to see how large and complicated everything has grown. It's a beautiful mess of many conveyor belts, tractors, trucks, trains, hypertubes, hypertubes launchers, etc.
Lol, that's absolutely not what I mean. Please keep all the "wokies" here. As long as "woke" means accepting people regardless of race, sexuality, gender, etc.
It's always difficult. On the one hand it's not great to de-federate based on political opinion. After all, I'd have no issues with these people posting memes and other content, adding non-political insight in non-political communities, and even discussing politics in political communities. An echo chamber doesn't really help anyone after all. However, these people seem to actively look down on anyone even slightly more right wing as them, and as shown in the examples they also seem likely to aggressively push their views in places where that would not be appreciated. To me defederation seems like the good call, at least temporarily, to ensure that moderators won't have their hands full. But it would be nice to see at least attempts to federate with these extremists, just to give them a chance to play nice. It would be better in the grand scheme of the fediverse to keep things as connected as possible and to avoid echo chambers.
I definitely understand that there is a market for it, but personally I'm not interested. They're expensive, vulnerable, and I have no need for a screen like that. The high prices and vulnerability were excusable in the first few generations, but I feel like we should've advanced further by now. I wonder how many people really use one.
How so? Most of these memes seem to be just She-Ra images with some funny text. Does OP personally know you? Or do the images/text somehow refer to you in some way?
You can't expect the world to accommodate for everything you struggle with. These memes are doing nothing unreasonable to the average person, people seem to be enjoying them. If you are getting triggered this badly by something so benign then you're going to have to solve it yourself. If we would block every meme that triggers somebody on the world, I'm afraid there wouldn't be many left.
I've been there for 10+ years. I'm gone now. Haven't opened Reddit to browse it since Baconreader stopped working. Every now and then I am directed there for answers to my questions, but that's the only thing I use it for now. Lemmy doesn't fully replace it, but maybe it was time to let that braindead browsing addiction die off anyway.
Max is just so good. I wonder if anyone could beat him right now even in equal machinery. I mean, Perez isn't a generational talent, but he isn't bad either. Max just casually pulling a 20s gap on him in the same car and tires is insane. And before that Max did the same with Albon and Gasly, who are also very respectable drivers.
I thought the same, but apparently it was an epic gamer moment.
I'm having a hard time believing that to be honest. As far as I'm aware this year is above average due to El Niño. While the trend is definitely horrifying, there's reason to expect the La Niña years to be a bit colder again afaik. What this year does provide is a bleak look into the not so distant future where this is the norm, not the exception.
Ah okay thanks. I stand corrected then. Kinda silly rule
Are you sure? That quali format with fixed tires was a one-off test right? Afaik those rules don't apply now. They didn't apply in the quali yesterday either. I think it was just a wrong call from Aston
