Rabbit Hole:

It’s lice. You get 300 million lice.

Now, can you build the potato clocked, huh?

I usually refrain myself from commenting on other people’s appearances, because God knows I was last in queue, but when someone goes out of their way, and spends lots of money to look like a clown, it’s only fair for them and everyone else to laugh at them.

Plastic doesn’t age well I see.

She’s 54. Act like it.

Lemmy is too small for it to make sense. I can easily read through all threads all the way through the controversial posts and still run out of content daily.

It made sense on Reddit, where accounts could be worth money and/or used for advertising, or some people thought karma points was worth it, or that posts there had influence, which they did for a while. The Unidan affair was only about votes, and showed how a single user manipulated the majority of readers into something that was WRONG ON THE INTERNET, which should be a crime.

Finally there’s also people who view everything as a competition and just want the high score in that imaginary game. Endorphins or something. I’ll admit that I have a longer streak than necessary in some apps too, but I’m no cheater. I wouldn’t get my high off that anyway.

I rarely downvote, but then again, every upvote is like downvoting everyone else, and I surely don’t want to upvote everything.

Maybe this is the 1st. iteration of design, still being copied because nobody bothers making a new design.

People also still say “hello” when they answer the telephone. That’s even older.

They used muzzle loaded cannons at his time, so it makes sense. It’s not only for direction, but for faster rate of fire.

No, you’re not. The internet is unsurprisingly full of people being annoyed with just that.

The most valid explanation is that quotation marks used to mean something else. Before we had bold and italics and underscores, typographers would sometimes use quotation marks for emphasis. This kind of ancient mark-up language can be seen in advertising up until the 1950s or so. It is considered to be wrong now.

A little late…

I would probably feel safer around someone who says that they’re not, than someone who doesn’t acknowledge the potential dangerous situations.

Yes, that’s because it was. The album Chinese Democracy was basically a solo project by Axl.

The Holocaust aka “the final solution” was the result of a logistic issue. The Nazi’s initial plan was to deport the jews.

I have no expectations of USA doing anything different when they realize the cost of keeping people alive in prisons.

Try it, but don’t get disappointed if it doesn’t match your childhood memories at first try.

The ones my parents had in the garden wouldn’t be found in a store. They’re honestly just plain bad, but they’re the ones I remember most fondly.

Apples are much more useful in cooking, except for desserts, where pears are better.

How come?

Using the gift of knitwear. It’s so hip.

Lol.

I believe it’s called data poisoning, which theoretically could be used to hack something in some theoretical situation.

It’s not the case here. He simply left a turd on the sidewalk and then the AI picked it up.

I don’t think they even care about profits anymore.

Billionaires live in the balance sheet, not the P/L statements.

I don’t want rich people to behave.

I want them to pay back the money that they stole, so that there will be no rich people.
