1. What are the winning numbers for the next big lottery?
2. What companies should I Invest a big portion of winnings into to become the richest person in the world?
3. What are the names of the specific people I will need to target to either befriend/influence/kill and, which do I need to befriend/influence/kill to take control of the planet?

I don’t get this logic at all. Piracy doesn’t take away a possible purchase. There is an assumption that the media downloaded was ever going to be paid for. In 100% of the cases where I downloaded pirated content, I was never going to pay for the product, even if it was available to me by other means. Further I cannot remove a sale from someone when I never possessed the money to pay for it anyway.

I believe most people that pirate cannot afford to buy digital releases or pay for streaming services etc… (not all cases of course). In these situations nobody loses. The media companies didn’t lose anything because I was never going to buy it, and it wasn’t stolen because they still possess the media.

Edit - I agree with you Lmaydev I replied to the wrong comment.

More like final colonoscopy.

I catch myself sometimes half way through someone talking about something where I was fully paying attention for the first bit of them talking and then tuning back in for the end realizing “oh fuck” but it’s the same. My mind just wanders idk even know to what. There are times though where someone asks me a follow up question and I realize I wasn’t paying attention at all beyond the start of them talking.

This happens to me quite often, I can only take in so much of what someone is saying and then my brain is like “that’s all folks!”

Thanks that worked!, I feel like I preferred the old icon though :/ I’ll get used to the new one I guess.

Thanks, I didn’t realize that. My icon still says wefwef.

Have you heard of wefwef? It’s basically Apollo for Lemmy.

Link to a Reddit post about it, quickest I could find in short order at work:
