Best source is a reddit link, sorry.

I thought going in that people had to be overreacting about it, I know he’s a bit edgy and pretty clearly grew up on 4chan but it couldn’t be that bad.

Nah, it’s pretty bad.

Oh, sick, new Bringus post? I’ll be in my bunk.

Yeah I was really bummed to find this out along with all the nazi signposting that slipped past me because I couldn’t hear the dog whistle, he might be the only creator I’ve ever actually gone and unsubscribed to. Shame, too, because some of those videos were actually really good, credit where it’s due (even if that credit isn’t due to IH himself).

I do this for tomatoanus skits as well, those are usually pretty off the wall. My man has an entire storyline saga going on in his ad read sections.

Chucks and Vans are definitely not good shoes. They are stylish shoes, but the shoe itself is a piece of cloth over a piece of cardboard. No wonder you have bad feet, bro, you’ve been walking on trash.

I bought a pair of steel toe boots with good insole and arch support for about $85 three years ago and those things are still going strong. Comfy and durable. If you’ve got big feet or want nicer boots than me, that can range up to about $150, anything higher than that is designer bullshit. Don’t fall for a brand name.

Right, so Finland, France, Germany, Norway, New Zealand, Japan, Australia, Korea, Spain, the Netherlands, and Italy all don’t exist. Got it.

Yes, because naturally no other country in the world enjoys a similar level of prosperity without creating an underclass that they abuse for their profit.

We don’t need to print more money, we have more than enough money. We just need to recirculate the money we do have. There is plenty of money in the USA for most citizens to live a comfortable life without exploitation, but 80% of that money is buried in the pockets of corporations and 15% of the remaining 20% is buried in the pockets of billionaires.

Blame the fact that it’s so difficult to immigrate legally yet an overwhelming number of businesses rely on cheap immigrant labor. This is a feature, not a bug, because they can pay the illegal immigrants less and abuse them without fear of reprisal because if the employer gets any attitude about it, they call ICE and have the worker deported and replaced with the next struggling desperate immigrant.

There is no illegal worker in the US that would rather be an illegal worker than a legal carded one. The system is stacked against them because it saves businesses money to do so.

Semi-related, are there Leftwingers that are righties unwilling to even say the name of?

Arguably Joe Biden, they’ve been calling him Brandon for years. But they make up stupid little nicknames for everyone.

Korpiklaaani’s cover of Ievan Polkka goes absolutely insanely hard

Yes, that’s the only thing I know about them

I’ve also recently discovered Brothers of Metal who despite having the most boring metal band name in history are a pretty good nordic/viking metal band, I’m a big fan of Powersnake by them in particular recently

Truly it boggles the mind.

I was once that first year compsci student. Hanoi kicked my ass, I had to go recruit help from my smarter friends. Though to be fair the teacher didn’t explain it that well and just sort of threw it at us to see which of us would sink or swim. After we all complained about it he gave us a proper lesson on recursion and it was a little easier after that but I still struggled a lot on that project. We also implemented Conway’s Game of Life that semester and I preferred that project by a lot.

but the point I’m trying to make is that there is more than enough content here, if you look for it.

If you’re looking for Linux memes, American politics, or tumblr crossposts, absolutely. Lemmy has you covered in spades. But I miss some of my more niche communities. I miss memes and discussions about Deep Rock Galactic and Guilty Gear. I miss discussing Elden Ring pvp. I miss the Warhammer 40k nerds. I miss /r/JustRolledIntoTheShop. In the meantime I’ve been making do (ineffectively) with Discord groups but it’s not a good replacement.

I’m not going back to reddit, especially now after recent news, but even you have to admit some types of content are lacking. For certain subjects, we’ve got it handled. For many, many others, we just don’t have the mass of users required to build that community. And in some ways that’s good. Not having Lemmy become the seething mass of infinite strangers that Reddit was helps keep us more personal, more manageable. I recognize names here sometimes that I’m happy to see, that rarely ever happened on reddit. But I’ve had radio silence on some of my favorite hobbies and communities for about a year now and it kind of sucks. It sucks to the point that I’m frequently tempted to return to reddit just to check up on some communities, but I’m always turned away by their most recent user-hostility.

It’s clearly a man pissing his name into the snow (in simplified Chinese)

They’re really not that obnoxious. The folks getting their panties in wads about it are either fools, or astroturfers. You do you chief, and I for one support this. Folks get overly triggered about all sorts of stupid little shit, don’t let them get you down. Someday soon a bunch of us will probably wish we did something like what you’re doing.

I mean, ha ha funny joke, but realistically, yes. Someone with no money and no friends or family with money is a waste to advertise to. You fly under the radar by virtue of being a statistically bad investment. You’ll still get hit with all the same shotgun-style advertisement that the rest of us do, but you’re unlikely to find yourself being a priority for targeted advertisement. It’s a little bit of a silver lining to an unhappy situation.

You’re not allowed to keep Jackie hopped on stims in the Delamain until you reach Vic but two hours earlier you had a cutscene moment where you stim a hostage to wake her back up from basically death.

It’s fucking bullshit

Didn’t know Santa Claus was a politician

Fair enough! To each their own. Personally the 200 hours in between shots of dopamine put me off of that. I found myself being bored most of the time I was playing the game and supposed to be enjoying myself.

Though, that said, I found myself bored most of the time running GRifts too. Modern Diablo may just be poorly designed from the base up. The glory days of Blizzard are well behind us, unfortunately.
