  • I think the only apps I have currently giving me notifications that aren't permanent or semi-permanent notifications (netguard, browser, and my local music player app) are my calendar, messaging app, and a single game. I refuse to let either the number of open apps and notifications on my device pile up to more than maybe 5 each, max.

  • Permanently Deleted

    Jump
  • Either schway from Batman Beyond or schkinky (however it's spelt, too lazy to find the episode it's used in and look at the subtitles) from Ahhhhh! Real Monsters!

    Both basically mean the same thing. Only difference is how schminky is used in ARM to describe a person/monster as cool rather than an idea or object.

  • Most of the time I know exactly what I'm getting if I see more than maybe 3+ comments. Usually it's me saying something anti-communist, something on brand enough for me.

  • If I ever got sick from something like COVID, I'd just go back to medieval Europe and let it spread like wildfire. I guarantee this modern disease would absolutely wipe out a large majority of Europe and everywhere else it spreads in the world. And little to no effort besides waiting for if I ever get it (which I thankfully never have had and hope I never will).

  • Definitely take a boat ride to visit Taiwan at least once before any shit potentially goes down in Asia and war breaks out.

    Hell, if it broke out while I was over there, it'd make things easier for me in a way, since I'd be more than willing to help Taiwan in the event of a war by doing whatever the hell they need me to as a civilian who couldn't join the army due to my health. Wouldn't have to be working on helping them from far away, but rather on ground.

  • Eh, the easier money making scheme of selling gravel just seems boring to me

  • Best case scenario, I find some linguist willing to pay me to help with their understanding of the language. Worst case scenario, I'm the only person who can speak this language.

    Also, if nothing else, I could impress people by being the only person in the world who speaks a specific language.

  • I feel as though there is money making opportunity in 8. The language is dead? Nobody alive who can speak the language, so I'd have more or less free reign to profit off of being the only person who could speak it.

  • That's what I used. My usual SearX instance I really like has been failing recently, so I switched to another reliable one, both German hosted instances.

    Edit:

    I have also noticed other strange things, like how I'll have an instance set to English but sometimes find miscellaneous posts in other non-Latin alphabet using languages. I presume that's just because it's a generic thing I'm searching, like a game or some common software. But I still find it weird.

  • That's history that, at least in my region, we learn about in school. For the most part, we let them do their thing nowadays and aren't actively commiting genocide on them. Police brutality on them may speak differently, but the majority of people who aren't racist and/or rich already want the police gone because of their brutality.

    As for the rest of the states, it's a mixed bag due to bad eggs, but I'm fairly certain the official government stance is accepting of the fact we've treated both natives and African Americans bad. It's why we learn about it. Tried looking it up, but was suspiciously finding a lot of content from Chinese embassies in America about how we need to come to terms with the Native American genocides and atrocities, from around the same time as the tribunal, maybe a month or two after people started reporting on it. Very suspicious timing on their part. Couldn't find what I was looking for because I kept getting Chinese (.gov.cn) links over any official US links, which is very suspicious to me because it looks a lot like search result rigging in my eyes.

    Edit:

    Search result rigging, not search engine rigging.

  • Only other alternatives I know are either Safari if you're on an apple device or something like Links/Links2/Lynx if you don't mind text based browsers. Neither are convenient for their own reasons, but it's not like we have any other choices. At least not that I'm aware of.

  • Whelp, I know who to call traitors.tl the free world: anyone who takes the bait here. Not saying America is the better option currently, but definitely a lot better than the "There's No Genocide In Xinjiang Despite An Independent Tribunal Saying There Is!" China team.

  • People don't care and will still buy them anyways. Similar thing has been going down with sports games like madden and nba for years yet people still buy them.

  • Easy Mode:

    Definitely 2 of my favorite Weird Al songs that I don't really hear people ever talk about:

    Don't Download This Song, and Virus Alert.

    Hard Mode:

    I don't listen to non-Weird Al parody songs anymore and haven't since late middle school to early highschool, so I got none in my head anymore.

  • I can only think of a single scene, and it's the dancing mice at the end of Coraline. Was actually amazing seeing that scene in 3D back when it rereleased in theaters in 3D over the summer(?).

  • Can absolutely vouch for Chuzzke Deluxe. Only problem I have with it now is that last I checked, some of the settings don't work if you are on Linux and using proton. Mainly just the setting for windowed mode, if I remember correctly. But that's a minor thing considering how cheap the game is on Steam.

    Edit:

    It's $4.99USD, so it's not really that expensive, but I for some reason thought it was a slightly lower price. Still recommended if you don't mind spending that little amount to pick it up.

  • I'm lucky enough to have an outlook account with a much more professional address than any of my other email addresses, not including than my secondary protonmail account. But I'm definitely gonna have to close that outlook account due to security reasons and get a new one (for professional stuff since I doubt anyone would accept anything other than gmail or outlook where I live).

    Ain't now way anyone is gonna say my gmail account (just used for yt because I like commenting on certain videos) saying I'm a fan of a long since dead yt channel is very professional. My outlook account at least was/is more professional as it is nothing but a few letters that don't spell anything.

  • Well, the only other ones I really actually use besides Lemmy are Mastodon and my InsaneJournal account. Been totally slacking on that, though, so gonna give it to Mastodon.

    I don't include things like Wattpad or yt because I spend most of my time not actually communicating with others on either platform.

  • Maybe I'm lucky, but at the community college I attend I have never had to sit at a desk. Only tables. As a left handed person, I am pretty happy about that, even though I have not had to write much because computers/laptops.
