It's not a bug, it's a feature.

I like NoScript in theory, but I had to stop using it. It broke too many websites to the point of unusability for me. I just stick with uBlock Origin and use the element zapper as needed anymore.

Makes sense to me. If you lack the critical thinking skills to see the contradictions in the fairy tales the Bible serves up, you're likely to miss the fact that the guy paying lip service to 'Christian values' is the antithesis to said values.

Or Windows ME. Ugh.

Metaphorically speaking, at least.

If you're not a contractor, power tools. Buy the harbor freight version first when you need it. If you end up using it enough to break it, then you get a quality one.

Interesting. I've apparently never seen the original. The best version I've seen, which I thought was the original, was porn. It just makes the guy's face in panel 4 that much better.

That's dumb. I understand restrictions on uncooked meats, but what harm could a cooked chicken breast do? This is what happens when officials blindly enforce rules without understanding the purpose of the rule in the first place.

You misspelled wonderful.

I prefer to think of them as antisocial media.

Hey now, don't forget Ted Cruz!

Kids these days will never get to experience the joy of finding woods porn.

It's not lost revenue if I was never going to pay for it in the first place.

Now you've made me think about that gif. I know you know which one I'm referring to.

I'm not saying this story isn't true. But keep in mind this source has a heavy pro-Israel bias. I'd prefer to see a more independent source present this story.

Reading your replies, it seems like you've already made up your mind about Lemmy, and don't actually want a discussion.

It's not our job to try and convince you to stay. Go back to Reddit and enjoy it, but don't complain here when the user experience continues to get worse.

Bye.

That's just objectively false. He was mentioned on reddit frequently prior to his suicide, which was a very big deal at the time.

Nothing. That's the whole point of federation.

Other instances would still be online, and it would be business as usual there.

There would likely be discussion about it on other instances, but Lemmy wouldn't shut down just because .world or .ml went offline.

That was a good 10+ years ago. Ever since the redesign, the default Reddit experience kept getting more mainstream. Many of us were able to avoid it by using old.reddit and 3rd party mobile apps, but the apiocalypse ended that for most users. Hence, why a good many users joined Lemmy about 6 months ago.

TL:DR- The enshitification of Reddit was a gradual thing that finally reached a tipping point for many here last June.

I think you may be mistaking hatred of Trump with fervor for Harris.

I'm not thrilled with Harris, but if it's going to be between her and that orange shitstain, it's an easy choice.

Fuck yeah!

Aren't prices supposed to trend downward as technology ages?

Who knew denigrating women would make them not want to vote for you?

I know the Square from my childhood is long dead, but it would be nice if they could stop desecrating it's corpse.

Indeed he did. Years ago, they were holding auditions in my area for a new guitarist after Wes Borland left. They asked people to demo stuff they had written, rather than try to play along with their current songs. After auditions wrapped, they didn't pick anyone and life went on.

Cut to a few months later when their next album dropped. The local rock station that helped sponsor the audition starts getting numerous calls from people saying the material they demoed during the audition got incorporated into songs from the new album. No credit or compensation was given to any of them. From that point on, the radio station rightfully blacklisted them.

Just to be clear, the victim survived the stabbing. Not that that changes the intent of the crime.

Well, using a mobile hotspot will tie the IP address to your phone, so probably not a great idea if your name is listed on the account. Honestly, just use a quality VPN and you'll be fine with your home connection.

This one. Very NSFW.

Looks more like a catastrophe to me.

That song slapped back in the day, but those lyrics were nonsense.

To your second point, it's because most of them hate the US and/or capitalism, and want to see it implode.

Irrelevant. If we're comparing identical items, the expected defect rate should be roughly the same.

Are you kidding? With what he's already said and done? Anyone still on the Trump train isn't going to hop off for that. Most of them probably use it among themselves anyway. His supporters would eat that shit up.

That's a profound statement, EdibleFriend.

It's just south of Las Vegas. Just north of Vegas is the site where the government used to do extensive nuclear testing.

Nevada Test Site

There's a version of the first Harry Potter film where they replaced all the wands with guns. It's not on YouTube anymore, but you can download it from here if you're so inclined.

He has neither the warmth nor depth.

Who the fuck is smuggling half-cooked chicken breasts for this 'gotcha' of yours? Oh, that's right, no one.
