I was right in the edge of Gen Z and Millennial and grew up being the family’s tech kid. It still astounds me now that my younger sisters don’t know how to even look for solutions. They just get me. Having moved out I get texts and calls sometimes. I’ve had to explain that using a computer is a skill that is learnable. I didn’t learn by going to someone else. I had to learn how to learn. That’s the skill we should be teaching kids. Not how to solve the problems, but how to FIND the solution to problems.

Just a reminder for anyone that wants to check up on r/place without giving Reddit your money, there are tons and tons of twitch streams that show how r/place currently looks.

If you aren’t actively helping create the “fuck spez” check our r/place without giving Reddit traffic.

Honestly I’m sad for everyone that works manual labor. Wearing a mask absolutely lowers the chance of both transmitting covid and getting covid, but working in 90+ degree weather lifting heavy shit for 8 hours a day wearing a mask sucks. It gets moist as all hell and fogs your glasses.

lol cope and be normal I guess? I understand insta isn’t great with privacy but it’s a group chat for your room mates. Make a burner account instead of forcing all of them to download some app they’ve never heard of for one group chat with people they are forced to be acquaintances with.

They’re likely all thinking you’re the odd man out because you’re making a fuss over a group chat.

Yeah well when you let 10 people have all the money and resources that tends to happen.

Honestly a comforting read as someone who isn’t a huge Biden fan. Things are improving! As a person in their early 20’s it’s felt like the world fell apart right as I was entering the work force, nothing has been affordable and crime has been a major worry. Seeing that crime is down and we’re likely going to avoid a worse recession is like having a weight off my shoulders.

Keep it up Biden administration.

Literally the plot to a south park episode lol

Does this mean we could finally have a representative under the age of 1000? No we’re just going to elect another dinosaur that thinks homes still cost a nickel? … okay

Is it illegal to burn bibles, Torahs, and other religious texts? If not I don’t see why any one religious belief should get a pass.

I for one can say I actually prefer Memmy. I think the themes look better and it functions a little smoother. I’m sure Mlem will be good though, it just seems earlier on in development.

There's no need for formal conspiracies when all of these economic and political elites share the same ideology, which they learned from their environment growing up in similar positions of privilege within the dominant culture.

Gonna have to downvote until you provide a source. As someone from Utah I’d be interested to read a fact checked article or even see the documents referring to this.

Bro banged on the door and broke a window to try to get in. He was literally forcefully entering a locked house, he didn’t just wander into an unlocked door by mistake.

No telling what the kid was trying to do or would have done if he got in. Home owners have to assume the person trying to kick in the door and breaking a window is there to do harm. Justified self defense to anyone with two brain cells to rub together.

More realistically ruined the parts of the internet that those with money were able to create or buy. Large swaths of the internet (especially now with the fediverse) are decentralized or decentralizing so one rich assholes decisions has less of an impact on overall use and enjoyment of platforms.

Maybe, but anecdotally my boomer aunt bought over $1,000 of apple gift cards and gave the card numbers over the phone to the “Apple support” guy with a thick Indian accent to get her hacked iCloud Photos back so…. I would like to see the different kinds of scams that both generations fall for.

Just make sure you’re buying quality stamps. Wouldn’t want this to go the way of George’s fiancé from Seinfeld.

I mean i took a programming class and damn near failed it my first semester of college so hopefully that doesn’t disqualify me. I work in insurance for now.

I just switched over because Apollo was my favorite time killer, and I can’t stand the Reddit mobile app.

It’s a shit posting page lmao of course it’s a repost from somewhere. No one makes memes just to put them on 196.

I mean I understand why people do it, but it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t suck and doesn’t make work just a little less tolerable for those having to deal with it.

Have you worked manual labor in a mask in the summer?
