Hilarious that this happens the week of the 5090 release, too. Wonder if it’ll affect things there.

Because the owner of the overarching app will make more money and have more control. Don’t you want that for them? /s

Yeah. Lemmy’s biggest strength (decentralization) has also shown to be one of it’s biggest flaws when micro-managing admins/mods turn their instance into their own personal fiefdom, inflicting their “justice” broadly and without discernment. I’ve been banned more here in under 2 years than on reddit for over 13, almost exclusively for voting “wrong” according to what feedback I can find, which is a a seriously treacherous practice in communities like these. I have no real sense of loss over it, but I do worry the Lemmy-verse will end up with tons of siloed off instances instead of an interconnected community if it goes on unadressed.

“Sex isn’t a bad word”

Insults woman for having too much sex

Make up your mind. Or is sex only OK when men do it?

Teacher nothing, this is every day raising a toddler.

What a meaningless measuring contest that has absolutely nothing to do with the post.

Why in the world would you pick any other day?

I’m not arguing one way or another

You literally were.

Lol, “insufferable”. News flash - there’s no “reason” to care about anything. Learn to find enjoyment in life where you can. You don’t get a reward for choosing to be miserable the whole time.

Cake Day is from birthdays, mate. You know? That annual celebration of creation where there’s usually cake?

Stop letting spez live in your head and just enjoy where you’re at.

Gotta get some clarifying boluses for that.

Depends on what you’re looking for. Most generally, I’d suggest Conan O’Bien Needs A Friend. Aside from the excessive ad breaks, the guests and discussions are almost always interesting.

Have you tried using Flicker? Might come back all fixed. If that doesn’t work you could use Disenchant and just get a new door all together.

For the upteenth time - an llm just puts words together, it isn’t a magic answer machine.

A better adjective would be “Analogue”.

It’s still just an ad. No such thing as bad press and all that.

> Can make anything they could think

> Makes ads

How incredibly sad.

Either one they get, they’ll just have “school-from-home” now, which is a shame.

Fwiw, I don’t blame the devs. That’s just me saying I’m not an expert. I understand it’s a management/corporate decision.

And thanks for the explanation. That clarifies the changes I’ve been noticing.

I think about that show surprisingly often and how amazing a compression method like that would be right now. Our internet and storage speeds have not remotely kept up with the rapidly expanding size of files these days.

I have been just bewildered at the proliferation of excessive scripts and garbage on seemingly every webpage over the last decade. I’m no web-dev, but I’m pretty positive that the vast majority of websites could remove 99-some percent of their javascript bs and their websites would function just fine. So many are pretty much unusable these days. It’s atrocious.
