Trickle down economy is a thing….but only in costs, not in profits.

I see it? Maybe I just haven’t noticed but I think .world is fine for me?

Edit: nvm you might be right. I just checked my posts in !futurama@lemmy.world. They normally get 60-100 up votes but the last one only got 3.

It started with a distaste for how Reddit was treating developers and moderators, but now I genuinely believe in the future of the fediverse.

Supposedly The Verge is behind a dynamic paywall, metered based on high use, but I got a block in the first article I clicked on this week. I don’t mind a paywall but be clear on what is behind a paywall and what isn’t. I will stop visiting the site at all if I can’t figure it out.

I wish these sites had an option to pay 50cents or whatever for articles I want to read so i can still support them without having to commit to another fucking subscription.

Half my team quit because I told them about a better job offer I got. Oops. I don’t feel bad it. I stayed because I got a WFH guarantee that was pretty much immediately taken away from me.

On Monday, I got in trouble for waving goodbye to one of my bosses at the end of my day. Not even an exaggeration. That’s exactly what happened. I hate my job.

I’m not saying it was right, but Hunter did get it rough solely because of who his dad was.

I’m not saying he didn’t deserve it, only that it wouldn’t have happened otherwise.

I don’t know that this is worth making a fuss over.

I don’t personally care. Burials and other ceremonies are for the living. I’d prefer something that doesn’t harm our environment and to donate as many organs as possible, but that’s pretty much it.

I like what you said about being a tree. I may steal that.

I don’t have kids. I plan to leave my assets to a charity. Probably something for animals but I haven’t really planned that far ahead yet.

I think it depends where you live. In my city, it’s Indeed. LinkedIn only gives me scammy results. But I know ziprecruiter is better in the west coast so I’m sure LinkedIn works for some people too.

I have been fighting with Docker and Fedora on these exact items all weekend. Good luck

Thank you for doing this game over on The Simpsons community. I definitely stole this from you.

I have sort of been doing my best guess on the difficulty. I have all the episodes memorized, just like you, and I have no idea how hard it might be for the average fan.

Don’t you love scrolling right when the page loads and you click an ad instead?

It’s a feature, not a bug! Haha!

I haven’t set up this yet, but I use AdGuard on my phone and yes, it does leave blank space. Sometimes I don’t realized there was more text to read because it’s empty.

It’s not about the adblocker though. It’s on the quality of the developer. A good developer tells the browser to leave space for ads before it loads them. It makes the page load faster and also prevents the page jumping around as each item loads.

Ironically, a bad developer that doesn’t do that, probably has better website layouts for people who use adblockers. 🙃

Same. I still have my dad on my friends list. He’s just always there, sleeping away. It makes me happy.

I don’t do gift giving! I don’t like doing it even though I don’t like the holidays, but the people on my life decided we’re all adults with adult money and we can just skip it. I don’t have kids of my own, but I do have nieces and nephews. I’ll do something special with them. I prioritize experiences and memories over presents for them.

I know exactly which scene you are referring to hahaha damn this show.

Yes, stop asking!

This reminds me of another great Professor quote.

Prof: I’ve just finished recharging the matter compressor.

Fry: What’s the matter compressor?

Prof: Nothing’s the matter now that I’ve charged the matter compressor.

Neutopia is a great episode. Some of my favorite quotes are in that episodes. The later seasons get a bad rap, but that’s too bad because there some really great episodes in them:

Thanks! I really enjoyed seeing how different all the votes were. I hope we can do this again in the future and get more participation.
