Guy who scammed his friend out of $500: oh, no it totally wasn’t me man. There was a video? Weird it must have been a Randeep Fake

While I appreciate your sentiment, Pandas definitely might beat us. They’re already endangered and they’re fucking idiots.

But you could have

Zapster amirite

Well, digital piracy.

But ye olde Black Beard and the modern Somalian type is very much theft.

“Government decides how Government resources are governed.”

…

Yeah, seems pretty reasonable.

Using the lc keyword to find Firefox communities on Lemmy

Your screenshot and the alt text mention ‘lc’ not ‘lg’ as well. Neat add-on but some time spent actually reviewing what you’re publishing would well spent.

Great recipe! I didn’t have any cheese so I substituted for peanut butter, and thought some jelly might go good with it too so I added that in as well. My oven only goes to 1500 so I put it in the freezer instead.

Being able to use Google maps (which is constantly updated, integrated with my contacts, and actually had a UI/UX team design it’s interface) on the tablet sized vehicle display and car stereo system, in addition to whatever music apps, is pretty nice. As well as Google search via steering wheel controls for managing navigation.

Yeah, I could play stuff with Bluetooth or use the integrated GPS system but the quality of audio is noticably worse and the GPS is absolutely shit but nice to have in a pinch.

Honestly idk what other apps integrate with AA, music and directions pretty much do the trick for me.

Hey, that’s not a fair evaluation of the US ‘Justice’ system. Being rich has a lot to do with your success as well.

It’s a lot easier to shovel a foot of snow thrice than it is to shovel 3 feet of snow that’s compacted, melted down a bit, formed a freezing layer on top and ice on the bottom, and now your shovel is broke because you were trying to pry up that ice with 60lb of snow on top of it.

But at that point you say fuck it and just pay a guy to swing by with his plow and throw out some salt.

I appreciate the sentiment though.

They have a name. They are called communities. A user subscribes to communities.

Community* not sub

Would you consider editing your original post to reflect that :)

So, like, obviously you’re a fucking idiot but beside that what are you even talking about? I’m not going to bother reading your unhinged reply, but seriously, it’s not like anyone is up in arms about this in the comments or frankly care all that much.

Why was it a concern? There’s a valid question, it was an unidentified white powder it could have been something dangerous. Okay there’s a reasonable explanation.

But again, nobody really cares. Wow, people use drugs. Gasp. Get a fucking grip. I’ve found most people who are critical of government leadership using drugs are critical of the hypocrisy, not the drugs themselves, because they understand prohibition is taking away their liberty. Actual liberty, not the kind of hate mongering fascists call liberty.

If people actually cared about something like this happening in China, I’d wager, is because it would be surprising somebody would be brave enough to obtain cocaine and then bring it into a government entity in a totalitarian regime where literally fucking killing you is the punishment for possession.

But again, not gonna read your reply. There’s actually an instance for idiots like you, maybe go find lemmygrad so you can be coddled in your safe space with like-minded shitbags instead of bringing your weird shit here.

Definitely, astroturfing/Cambridge analytica/Russian bot farms coming up on the 2016 US election were the major causes of a shift in the paradigm. The actual results of the election and Brexit then influenced a strong divisive change in society globally. The pandemic brought even more people online who were dropped right into this chaotic chapter in Internet/cultural history.

Gonna be some really interesting studies in the future looking at how all of this played out.

The question that remains to be answered is, are the normies that moved to Reddit responsible for what it became? Or was it a product of the corporate profit driven manipulation of the platform? Time will tell…

Edit: It’s worth noting, I don’t mean to say ‘normies’ a a pejorative term, just the most casual way to differentiate the more tech-savvy, active early adopters that I find many people currently using the platform are, versus those who are simply doom scrolling content on social media.

Also the fact that campaign wasn’t even available on launch. I was pretty excited for some co-op campaign but never even went back after they implemented it months later.

Every instance owner should be looking to sign this. Every time you see Meta bullshit posted, please repost this. Also idk how to tag people and I know he’s super busy as of late but calling on Ruud@lemmy.world to get on board with this as well. With the ever growing size of his community it is his responsibility to help us protect the Fediverse.
