Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power!

No, but seriously, I occasionally miss being able to just install shit. But 95% of the time, there’s a Flatpak and it’s great.

I mean if my water heater decides to take a shit, I can just call the landlord and they’ll handle it…

I rent, and I wish it was that easy. I have to twist my landlord’s arm into doing anything and she always complains about how much it costs. We had sewage backing up into the basement and she didn’t want to pay for the emergency plumber. Ugh. I dream of my own apartment with a decent landlord.

They said half the price. I lived in a small town in Minnesota for a bit and the pizza options were Pizza Hut, Pizza Ranch, Casey’s, and briefly a local Italian restaurant that didn’t specialize in pizza and may or may not have been arson’d for the insurance money. Casey’s was the most expensive but also the best by a long shot.

In Florida, Hess gas stations carried Godfather’s Pizza and that was great too.

Which “haha person is stupid” kinds of things are making fun of people who are mentally handicapped? And which ones are just making fun of people for being plain old stupid? Or is it ablesist to say that a person behaving stupidly is stupid?

Kinda, yeah. And this is somewhere some hard conversations have to happen in leftist anti-ableist spaces to figure out the way forward. Memes play on stereotypes and cultural shorthand to communicate with very few words, and the culture is ableist so our memes sometimes will be too. There’s a split in definitions - stupid can be a perjorative for disabled people, or it can be a remark on willful ignorance and self-sabotaging malice. And using SAT words to more accurately describe their behavior leads to the wall 'o text leftist ‘memes’ that nobody wants to read. But calling them stupid is still ableist.

In some cases you can get around this by playing on anti-intellectual stereotypes but then you’re usually just using classist stereotypes… am I just forgetting some or is every insult that doesn’t make you sound like an egghead punching down on someone?

IDK. Everything is fucked.

Welcome to Lemmy, in six months you’ll be running Linux, lol.

Did they take inspiration from How to Train Your Dragon or are there a whole bunch of cat-dragons I’m unaware of?

I’ve seen a harmonica gag before, but the kazoos are way more humiliating.

Or a locked door.

I think significant media outlet uptake is more of a Mastodon metric, Reddit has a few high profile media outlet accounts - Tampa Bay Times I remember seeing quite a bit, they did a lot of good journalism about Scientology because Clearwater, but I think a lot of news companies slept on Reddit while it was worth using.

I think we have hit an interesting level for notability though. I use Bazzite Linux, and last month they sent a broken update for their version with legacy Nvidia drivers. I was one of the first people on the internet reporting having problems in a post here on Lemmy. As I stated to search my problem, I found that someone on the Bazzite forums linked to my Lemmy post because they had the same problem. They never commented in my thread and they may not even have an account. When’s the last time you saw a Tildes link in the wild?

I remember the column discourse and a lot of the other stuff on this list, but what’s the cylinder thing?

LOL, as a rank and file, corporate doesn’t care. I pass along feedback, but even if they lose 1% of their business, corporate won’t stop their bullshit.

Yikes, how’d that go?

Well, unless you go the Animal Crossing route and just have one body type. The game asks a binary “choose your style” type question, but I don’t think your answer is used in many places, I can’t actually think of any.

Animal Crossing New Horizons has a maid dress, anyone can wear it, and the island residents don’t say shit unlike previous games. I bought a black one from the Able Sisters a couple days ago.

And this is how I found out. :(

Bummer, they were my favorite chain craft store.

Technically SJW is bilingual French/English but apart from announcements it’s basically all in English here (which is disappointing, I’m trying to learn French, anyone know of a French meme community?)

A transfem Linux furry. Completely unheard of on Lemmy.

No, that’s Florida.

Hey, want to go on a date? There’s a mini golf barcade downtown we could go check out. ;)

notepad++ is Windows only. :/

Oh shit it’s me, lol.

And my parents wonder why I haven’t visited in five years. D:
