This shit is so embarrassing

the film doesn't explore it as well as the comics did, but the story is about scott being a shitty, under-developed 23 year old. he is confronted with his past and forced to reckon with how terribly he has treated the women in his life. scott is supposed to help ramona defeat her evil ex-boyfriends but is faced with that prospect that he could become one if he doesn't become a better person. i'd really recommend reading it as the film gives the wrong impression of the story

I was hoping they would just enjoy Elon’s twitter but apparently they really need to pollute the common spaces otherwise they get bored

Normalize software letting you fuck around and find out

The more likely reason for blacklisting the developer is to cause a chilling effect on other developers. Apple has one of the best developer ecosystems and Meta is likely terrified of letting their developers anywhere near Apple. Having good apps is so important to a platform

Yes, it does get better, in my opinion. Keep in mind, the show has never been very popular. It constantly got cancelled due to low ratings.

The love and hype around it is distorted because it is beloved among internet nerds, which means you get a false perception of popularity on sites like Reddit or Lemmy

I’ve been using Kagi lately and one of my favourite features is the ability to raise or lower the priority of a website in your searches. You can even just outright ban a site from your search results

Is it weird that I’m always excited to read the update posts?

Why would they buy a company that is using a workaround when they could just make an iMessage app for android

Unfortunately, most of the original team is gone now. I hope they’ve moved on to better things

Actually I think it is quite a stretch to call them feminists in any way. 99% of the time they ally with the far right and many of their leaders advocate against things like contraception and healthcare for women

LOVE the new app icon! I guess I’m a minority that wasn’t a fan of the other one. The colours were just a tad too gaudy for me.

Also just generally loving all the new features and care being put into this app.

A couple notes:

1. If you use swipe actions too quickly then the arrows will start pointing in all sorts of directions (not import and only if you are messing around with it)
2. The image viewer feels less responsive than the original one in earlier versions. I’m not familiar with this style and I guess I’m wondering what the goal is?

Iirc it’s due to the way federation works. You can see the real number of boosts but the favourites only show the amount from people who are on the same server as you. It’s not reflective of the real number

Me when I write the command to burn down my entire computer and it does exactly what I asked it to

I think we need to keep children off the internet but there’s not really a way to do that other than having parents be more responsible. I think public shaming could work wonders in this area

what do you mean by this

honest question: why does it matter? all data in any fediverse project is public anyways

I need to know how they are handling the server costs involved… even if you host your own instance for just your own uploads, you are still going to be paying a lot whenever people are watching those videos, no?

Video is a way different ballgame than regular social media imo

Isn’t this the one that was shown to have biased data due to opt-in polling? Randomized polling shows less of a divide and more liberal views amongst young people. I can’t find it right now though

I was on Reddit for over a decade and it definitely used to have way more Linux evangelism until the site became more mainstream
