The sound… the sound haunts my dreams

“I may not know much.”

That is a complete sentence.

Fellas, is it weak to be attracted to someone?

Right, because Gs are never pronounced with a “J” sound, and acronyms are never pronounced differently than their full terms. Sound logic there; well done. Never mind any of these:

NASA- National Aeronautics Space Uhdministration

NATO- North Ayy-tlantic Treaty Organization

LASER- Light Ayy-mplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation

SCUBA- Self Contained Oonderwater Breathing Uhpparatus

FOMO- Fear ohhf missing ohht

ASAP- Ayys soon ayys possible

POC- People ohhf solor

PIN- Personal id-entification number

BOGO- Buy ohhn get ohhn

POTUS- President ohhf the Uhhnited States

YOLO- You only live ohhnce

AWOL- Ayy-bsent without awfficial leave

ICE- Eyemmigration and Sustoms Enforcement

DARE- Drug Ayybuse Resistance Education

Sync for Reddit was a popular-ish third-party Reddit app. The dev has been working on building a version of it for Lemmy, and the surrounding community has been pretty excited for it. Recently, Sync for Lemmy was released, and there’s been a lot of fanfare, conversation, etc. In my opinion, it’s the most polished Lemmy client by far. Some people are annoyed that the premium features cost significantly more than they did in Sync for Reddit. The dev said it’s to offset the smaller user base, which seems reasonable to me, but it’s spurred a lot of arguments about the paid model.

This seems like a bit of a strawman argument. I haven’t seen anyone say that explicitly—if they have, it certainly isn’t common. I have seen people say they’re willing to pay for a “higher quality app,” and I can see how you could interpret the implication there being that FOSS apps are shitty in comparison. For me, though, I don’t interpret it the same way, and I’d assume positive intent. Some people like Sync better than the other apps and are willing to pay for it. That’s it, really.

I have no idea why so many people are upset about Sync. There are so many FOSS alternatives. Just… don’t use it? It literally doesn’t impact you at all.

I’ve only ever heard it pronounced lim-rix.

This made me laugh though.

It said “may not,” not “can not.” The hotel may choose not to move everyone to a new room.

Are there any movies that capture this period in time?

I have nothing against people that want to use Threads, truly, and I would welcome them to Lemmy. That said, I do draw the line at federating with Threads. I’m here specifically because it’s not part of a big company. If anyone wants to enjoy that content, go for it! Just create an account over there.

Not being snarky, but Google “Embrace, Extend, Extinguish” for some interesting context for what Meta might be trying to do with Threads.

Restaurant menus should be on paper, not a QR code.

If this were Reddit, someone would post, “What a terrible day to have eyes.”

I love when mathematicians use their power for ridiculous reasons.

“me’ve” has got me just cracking up to myself, thank you.

Fair question, tbh

Remember when 2,000 upvotes was enough to get you to the Reddit front page? Feels like that era with Lemmy, and it is sweet.

“International backlash” always cracks me up.
