  • How is remaining in an unprofitable market a "loss leader"?

    Sometimes you gotta take a small loss for the overall benefit of the company/system.

    You really don't think Twitch did some analysis on this matter before making a decision? Or do you just figure that your uninformed assumptions about their financials are more accurate than their internal analysis? Clearly whatever benefit they were or were not getting from their SK business was not enough to justify the operating costs.

  • And not including post body information beyond anything except the article has always been a strictly reddit based thing.

    This is Lemmy and Federated so I'm against that hard.

    The entire point of the fediverse and Lemmy is that different instances and the communities within them can set things up as they see fit. And I think being so militantly against something simply because people on Reddit did it that way is silly. There's no reason to dismiss an idea simply because it was done that way on Reddit before. Just let Lemmy be its own thing without worrying about how Reddit does or doesn't do things.

    I see no real need why they need to be separated. The difference is negligible to my browsing experience. It does end up making OP need to do one more post though.

    The suggestion is based on the opinion that the content of posts on this community should be limited to objective information directly from/about what is being posted. Opinions, discussions, arguments, etc have their place in comments section, that way people can respond to those individual comments. Having the post itself be a combination of an article and a random musing from the OP means top level comments will be a mish-mash of responses to the article and responses to the OP's post body comment. By requiring the OP to post their comments in the comments section, we ensure that all top-level comments are responses to the linked article itself.

    If we didn't want OP to have an opinion on something posted, then what's the difference between simply not letting them comment then?

    Nobody is saying they don't want OP to have an opinion or be able to comment, it's a simple suggestion to separate the OP's comments from the post body itself.

  • The post body is for whatever the community rules say the post body is for. They have an opinion on what rules this community should adopt regarding post bodies, and I think it's fair that they can voice that opinion. It has nothing to do with whether or not this is Reddit, they just used an example from Reddit.

  • Stop dropping your phone on the fucking train Every morning I clock into work, and 12 hours later I clock out covered in jizz because someone dropped their phone while looking at porn and turned the whole trip into a goddamn gangbang. I can’t take it anymore. I’m literally knee deep in spunk by the end of the day, because all you motherfuckers are apparently lubing up your hands and can’t get a grip. We’ve all had to start wearing blindfolds when we exit the front so we don’t accidentally get a peak and start furiously cranking our cocks to “thugposts” or “femboys” or whatever the newest horny fad is. For the love of god, stop dropping your phone on the fucking train.

  • And I'm the bad person?

    For making this post (and the one in the autism community) in the first place? Not really.

    For refusing to listen when you are told by almost all replies to your posts that you're completely off base? For digging your heels in and being combative instead? For implying through all of this behavior that you understand what everyone else is going through better than they do? Yes. Absolutely.

    You're being obtuse at this point. The correct course of action would be to acknowledge that you obviously misunderstood what people with ADHD and autism go through and resolve to do better in the future. Then you can leave the situation graciously knowing that you've retained your dignity.

  • Is Florisboard still being developed? Hasn't been updated in 18 months according to F-Droid. Some buttons generate a TODO pop-up when pressed and the predictive text still uses placeholder values.

  • It's the same problem I have with people who want me to fix their computer. Any issues that come up at any time in the future, no matter how much time passed or how unrelated it is, was caused by "whatever I did."

    No, Aunt Karen, the malware you downloaded is not from me restarting your Wi-Fi adapter 3 years ago.

    And with these people any negative health issues that occur can only be attributed to vaccines.
