Hey Niko it's Roman... Let's go bowling send viruses!

I even went to Diggnation Live, here in London.

Thank you for the clarification on this, I'll keep it in mind and noted.

It's nothing surprising to me. This is what I assume Reddit was like before heavy moderation of subs many years ago, and what gets on the front page.

/r/trees used to be one of the most popular subreddits and used to frequently show up on /r/all (the 'frontpage' back then), followed by GoneWild communities iirc (at least that's how it felt like, I mean Spez was a moderator for Jailbait after all) I think Lemmy just doesn't hide it and so it's easier for people to click on and such.

Same here. Tried Sync, felt odd and wasn't to my liking so I went back to using Connect.

This is pretty much exactly what I was doing in the early 2000s, when we got our first family computer. Thank you for the nostalgia.

That's pretty cool to me. May I ask what it was like being into tech at that time? Were there many community efforts for communication at the time, that you can recall? I'm interested in hearing about yesteryear.

My fun fact is that I was born around the same time IRC was implemented. Last week of August, 1988.

This comment resonates with me. We should proclaim the good treatment of others as rightful, not an expectation to follow for anyone else's benefit. Spread Mudita, it's a contagious feeling.

and the boots with the furrr

I know there's a lot of controversy about it, but I enjoyed the story of the beta of Diablo 4. My close friends have been into it and it would be nice to play together, videogame politics aside.

I don't want to pay full price for it, however. I paid that much for Modern Warfare II, though personally I think more hours have been put into that than most games I could think of.

I can understand your concern, though my first wife was from Gentry, AR and I lived there as well (I often forget that as she is an ex wife). It is possible for people to have different experiences to the rhetoric.

Yes

I understand this assumption, however I should mention I am brown. I was born into a Sikh family and there is no denying my ethnicity (I have no issues showing my face if needed).

I suppose my experience would be different to someone else. If it's any consolation, the areas I had apartments in over the years was Fayetteville, Bentonville, and Rogers/Little Flock.

Having lived in America for a few years, and been going there to visit family often otherwise, I have a different perspective to offer than the other comments: I don't have to be proud of the government to have deep respect and admiration for the people I've met.

America is a big place. I've been to around 38 or 39 States, most passing through, though the one thing that stood out is the perseverance of the people.
I think you all should be proud in your general strive for not accepting things that are obviously wrong to you. There are disagreements, but at least you guys legitimately make effort to make things right as you feel things should be.

There's uproar in the streets, yet it's evidence that people do not want to just sit around and do nothing. I've witnessed sincerely compassionate acts of kindness, in ways I'll never forget. I was homeless for a short while, in Arkansas, and there were people so fed up with the lack of government support, that they themselves just bought apartments, and converted them into soup kitchens where they could feed us. One man had a felony, he spent time in prison for being involved in someone else's demise, yet he did this and spoke his story, not to boast in any way but to hopefully inspire many of us to turn our lives around.

It's a shame the government situation is a bit muddled, although it is also a bit of a mess in the UK, though I just think you guys should be proud to be American in some ways, even if your government is trying to convince you otherwise with their dishonest policies.

Hahah yeah Kanye West wants us to call him "Ye".

I'm still calling it Twitter. Always will.

This is exactly what I need! Thank you. I'm sick of hearing about these few people, who think their word is better than ours because of their wealth and inheritance.

I used to check it when it was active and they were adding things to the Top 100-200 quotes, and now I check it for nostalgia. Still makes me laugh all these years later.

I almost forgot about Slashdot! Gosh, that was decent back in the day. I remember unsubscribing from their email newsletter years ago, after I noticed a consistent trend in topics being unfavourable to my ethos.
