It is real purty in VR.

I miss listening to ska mp3s on Winamp while playing Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon on that new IMDb website and pausing briefly to chat with a friend through one of my many IM accounts logged into Trillian.

Uh oh!

this was a good choice.

Abstention is, by definition, the refusal to make a choice. And if you are not against oppression, then you favor the status quo.

I played Vanilla WoW a week after launch and was with it all the way up through Cataclysm Mists. After hearing about the multiple shocking incidences of sexual harassment and gender discrimination at Blizzard and upper management's unwillingness to stop it, it was quite easy to delete my Battle.net account and walk away. (Yeah I hadn't played in a while, but I'd intended to come back eventually.)

There are plenty of other games out there. You vote with your dollars, and your vote shows your character.

Q: What do you call 1000 slumlords at the bottom of the ocean?

A: A good start.

Ffs I have been reading your apologist bullshit on Lemmy for far too long. Touch grass.

...a newspaper that totally exists with only the first letter in its name capitalized, no bylines, heinous grammatical errors, and two-sentence leading articles which end without punctuation?

My point was that a laugh react is meant to be a positive interaction (what you said was funny, and I enjoyed your contribution) but has been co-opted as a negative reaction (I'm laughing at what a willfully ignorant idiot you are) because FB only wanted to provide users with positive ways to react. My concern wasn't the level of negativity, only to provide the person to whom I was replying with a other example.

Or using a laugh react as a thumbs down.

Right? I browse Twitter a lot and whenever I do I just kidding no I don't.

Those Sony WEGAs were bananas. Mine weighed 99lbs. I remember.

I drove from Dallas to Toronto in 2017 (you know, for fun), and I was amazed not only at how trim almost everyone looked but also at how many fucking people were on bicycles. Coming from the concrete jungle that is DFW, it was genuinely inspiring.

Who would win? A beautiful drawing my ex made, or one sullen, AI-generated spiky boi?

It's Jen-Hsun, but he goes by the name "Jensen".

"Yeah, but if you go to those countries in Europe, you'll find that almost no one likes the socialized health care they have in their country." - Every American conservative and libertarian ever trying to defend the freedumb of paying thousands of dollars out of pocket each year for basic medical treatment.

some bad actor to step in before that happens. Possibly SA.

Shohreh Aghdashloo is one of the finest actors of our time. You shut your damn mouth.

Edit: Sorry, I just figured out you meant South America. Yeah, I hate that country, too...buncha jerks.

Fuck, Homer Simpson did it better.

"...I hate Houston so fuuuucking much."

I remember listening to showtimes this way because I was the oldest kid in my family and my mom would rarely take us to the movies, and even when she did it was always some rated G film to cater to the youngest sibling, and listening to the showtimes let me imagine a day when I'd have a job and could go to the movies any time I wanted.

Now I have that. I can go to the movies any time I want. And yet... gestures broadly at the garbage that passes for films today...
