  • Top, although it takes more travel time for my thumb or index, depending on use case, it just feels more correct that way.

  • I'm pretty sure Ukraine still opposes Putin so at least we got that.

  • Dark Brandon is making me watch ads on purpose, dear god.

  • My eyes are almost widening and my mouth is almost opening from the surprise I am feeling right now, alas, I am not strong enough.

    This is what my face looks like right now after reading the headline: (..)

  • Problem for me is def going to be modding games, have they fixed alt tabbing between games and desktop yet at least? It used to "crash" the game for me if I tabbed out even for a second.

  • I read "El Hopaness Romantic" and was like, well if they put an L instead of the N in "Hopaness" it would be okay 👍

  • IF I YOUR FAVORITE PRESIDENT TRUMP was in this situation NOW I would LITERALLY WRITE AN AI that HACKS the JEWISH SPACE LASERS SPONSORED by FAUX FAUCI and made THEM DESTROY the hurricane with 8K ULTRA PRESISON believe ME I'VE seen them they're the WORST lasers EVER SEEN but my HACK that was made by ME and the BEST team they're good guys! Very fine people! would have made them STRONG enough TO DESTROY THE HURRICANE. Meanwhile DeSanctimonious who is a BAD man and many of the BEST PEOPEL are saying it! is in BED with BIDEN and the DEEP STATE to STEER the hurricane to KILL my voters! It's true! They LITERALLY called the HURRICANE Hillary! It's the WORST hurricane believe me! I've seen it myself and ALL the GOOD people say it's the WORST! DON'T TRUST THEM! Vote TRUMP 2024 and stay safe!

  • I can get behind that logic

  • This is a repost, of a comment in a thread about posts on Reddit about Reddit, from Reddit, in a response to a response to a comment about Reddit as a reply to "This is a post about Reddit" which is a comment about a post about Reddit that uses a meme-format commonly used on Reddit that has most certainly been used to comment about the state of Reddit on Reddit using a meme instead of text about Reddit by a Redditor on Reddit using Reddits servers to store the meme about the state of Reddit on Reddit so it can be seen by other Redditors on Reddit but instead of being posted on Reddit it was posted on Lemmy.

    Which is an alternative to Reddit because Reddit gatekept it's API, which is used to interact with Reddit directly instead of scraping Reddit, beyond 100 calls to Reddit per minute per API key distributed by Reddit on Reddit instead of per user of Reddit of each API key distributed by Reddit on Reddit meaning all users of a 3rd party app for Reddit would have to share those 100 calls to Reddit per minute of using those 3rd party apps for Reddit, and the CEO of Reddit Steve Huffman spread lies on Reddit using the text post function on Reddit and replies to other Redditors that replied to his post on Reddit about Apollos creator (Apollo is a 3rd party app for Reddit) who used Reddits reply function to spread awareness on Reddit about the state of Reddit and the way Reddits CEO talked mad shit about him.

    This reads like a law.

    Written on kbin.social which is one of the kbin instances for kbin that is pretty much interoperable with Lemmy but has a different interface than Lemmy because it's kbin and most certainly has a different kbin backend as well and it's the website (kbin.social which is an instance of kbin) that I used to write this repost of a comment in a thread about posts on Reddit about Reddit, from Reddit, in a response to a response to a comment about Reddit as a reply to "This is a post about Reddit" which is a comment about a post about Reddit. Which is one of the ways I spent thinking about Reddit for a far too longI'm Gaytime today which kind of destroys the point of this post about Reddit which has been replied to with "This is a post about Reddit" which has gotten a comment about Reddit and a response to a comment about Reddit on Lemmy by three users, each on a different Lemmy instance, which made everyone that participated think longer about Reddit today than they otherwise would have if they hadn't seen this post about Reddit, "This is a post about Reddit", the comment about Reddit, and the response to a comment about Reddit and lastly this lengthy repost in response to a response to a comment about Reddit on a comment about Reddit that is a reply to a comment about this post that says "This is a post about Reddit", and everyone that read this comment has wasted even more time than if they had only seen the post about Reddit, the comment saying "This is a post about Reddit", the reply saying it's a comment about Reddit and the response to that comment saying it's a response to that comment about Reddit.

    I ain't proof-reading allat.

  • Oh just to add to it as well, nobody ever seems to complain about the obvious reposts from Reddit.

  • Weirdly enough, whenever someone posts something about Reddit in !reddit , someone comments about how we should stop talking about it already.

    I can agree with that. There's no use in talking any more about Reddit (Posts like this one are no exception, honestly). On all other magazines/subs. !reddit is about Reddit though, so I just don't get why people don't just block that sub already instead of complaining about it.

    Nobody complains when people on !firefox talk about Firefox or even Mozilla (Yes 'even' because Mozilla is not the browser itself, which !firefox is about, but the corporation behind it).

    There's going to be news about Reddit as long as it exists, and those are gonna be on !reddit for as long as it exists. Complaining about it really does nothing since there are obviously enough people still interested in seeing how it goes. Some people just want to reminisce or rant. This is going to stay for a while, the platform was a massive time sink for most active users. Just block it.

  • It's sad that I was surprised it was just regular porn.

  • That's crazy and all 👍, but it won't make me do the switch from Netscape Navigator

  • The crazy part about it is, that even if every instance blocked everyone, you could always host your own instance and I think if you host one just for yourself and maybe a few friends or something it probably wouldn't even cost a cent.

  • Lemmy.world is the biggest lemmy instance, it makes sense that they attract everyone even those type of people. They don't understand the concept of distribution, of course they're gonna go where the number is largest. I wouldn't go as far as to say it's the admins fault for the people that went there.

  • Difference 2 is it's not really powermodding. At least not from the way I personally understand powermodding. Imo powermodding is when a mod decides to get rid of content they personally just don't like.

    In this case they got rid of a big risk to the instance itself, because, if someone decided to upload pirated content on here it would get federated to all instances that haven't blocked the one initially distributing such content. Like another user said on this topic, this could be compared to torrenting, only without the direct P2P distribution. The risk of course falls on the people hosting the instances.

    Since they host these instances pretty much for free aside of donations, that are not a requirement, and the fact that, like nanometer said, you can just choose not to be part of the instance (and register to another instance), I wouldn't put blame on the admins of lemmy.world in this case.

  • I agree, I have trouble labeling most south eastern european countries correctly as a European myself. Though I was specifically talking about western Europe in this case which isn't as fragmented.

  • Hawaii is way further away from the US than Alaska I forgot it belonged to the US because of that, I am sorry if that offended anyone.

    I would consider Michigan a memorable shape if it wasn't cut in half. As someone that's not from the US, without specifically going out of my way to learn about Michigans shape I would have expected the shape that actually represents Michigan to be two different states.

    And yes, technically NYC itself isn't a state but honestly it's close enough to the actual name, that if I told natives I'm going to the state of NYC they'd know I'm talking about New York and am just being ignorant, and knowing where NYC is, most people could point out the state of New York on a map.

    And yes, I am an imposter because I am from Germany and not the US.

  • Yes this one is honestly a bit apples to oranges-ish, I can kinda understand though because Germany is about the size of a single US state.

    Though it's very hard to fuck up western Europe if you ever looked at a world map. Western Europe only has a handful of countries.

    Compared to a country of 50 or so states where only 3 have a memorable shape (California, Texas, Florida), one has a memorable location (Alaska) and NYC being a household name.
