Whoever wrote the line "He looks like a redpilled Chip from Rescue Rangers" deserves a fucking raise lmao

It's been almost 27 years since the first Austin Powers movie and the world still doesn't have any sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads.

It’s not surprising. Mostly because, ya know, they aren’t actually sorry.

Normal people: Serling. Although it’s often understandably confused with ‘Sterling’ as that’s a more familiar word and sounds very similar.

Idiots: No, no, no, I am from a parallel universe.

Never forget, Paul Ryan bent the knee.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha

Andy Yen says draft safety standards ‘would force online services … to access, collect and read users’ private conversations’

What the hell Australia. This isn't gonna magically help you prevent the next Emu war.

Oh, this one? Pendulum. Honestly! (Not Pendulum and I’ve never learned who actually did it but I have a cool unknown track in my collection

I think every millennial has at least one napster/limewire era "white whale" song. It was awesome and you'd try to determine who actually performed it for years without ever figuring it out. Mine was a punk song listed as Dropkick Murphys but all I know for certain is it definitely was not them. No lyric searches have ever pulled up a match despite the fact that every few years I'd try again on a whim.

My best guess is that it was probably a late '90s band that never had much of a following beyond whatever local music scene they came from and someone uploaded it from a demo they picked up at a show.

I sure do miss when a sea of red hats meant you were probably at a limp bizkit concert and not a klan rally.

Yep, life was simpler back when there were only six or seven bands on the internet. Vaguely punk sounding? Well that's obviously Blink-182. Punk but with bagpipes? Dropkick Murphys. Dude with an acoustic guitar? Oh that's Dave Matthews Band.

I still remember how annoyed I was when reddit disabled that. It was a useful data point, especially in hobby communities or other places where it can be difficult for newbies to judge the quality of advice/answers they're receiving so I was thrilled to see it here on Lemmy. Going by upvotes alone is not always showing you an accurate picture of a community's reaction to a comment.

lol Jesus tap dancing christ.

None of which work anymore.

Edit: Again, downvoting me doesn't make you any less wrong.

As of July 12th, 2023, Libreddit is currently not operational as Reddit's API changes, that were designed to kill third-party apps and content scrapers who don't pay large fees, went into effect. Read the full announcement here.

None of those work anymore after the API changes. Which is the entire point of my original comment.

Yes, and third party clients, specifically alternate web UIs are not available on Reddit.

Correct.
