Just checked. Mine still say this:
Comment redacted in protest against Reddit’s deranged attacks against third party apps, the community, and common sense.
See ya’ll in Lemmy or Kbin once this embarrassment of a site is done enshittifying itself out of existence.
Monetize this, u/spez, you greedy little pigboy. 🖕
(I edited them manually, though, so maybe it’s that…)

Larry Ellison bought up his competitors and jack up prices on databsae products owning the industry for more than a decade.
It’s well known that ORACLE is an acronym for One Rich Asshole Called Larry Ellison.
One hundred push-ups, one hundred sit-ups, one hundred squats, and a ten kilometre run, every single day.
Also, never, ever use the air conditioning in the summer or heat in the winter, to strengthen the mind.
And of course, eat three meals daily, but just a banana in the morning is fine.
Eventually you’ll go bald, and become fast enough to be able to, while standing with your back to a mirror, turn around and see the back of your head.
Something from Iain M. Banks The Culture. The best books, like Excession would probably be hard to adapt due to the protagonists being mostly ships, but others like Consider Phlebas or The Player of Games could probably make great films or miniseries (and Use of Weapons would probably be great as the later).
Probably excessively expensive in the CGI department if done well, but one can dream.
English ain’t my first language, but I’ve often seen “cleaning” being used without a direct object, either because it’s implied (“put away after cleaning”) or because the action is meant to be generic and not limited to a specific object (“I’m going to do some cleaning”)… in this case it could be both (specific: the cat itself, or specific parts thereof, generic: the cat itself, the other cat, the coach, anything within reach; cats can often get carried away, when cleaning).
Wait, wasn’t red their colour…?
Indeed. Thermite is usually the recommended method to erase hard drives you don’t want to be recoverable.
The story goes that, after watching the film, Reagan asked the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff ”Could something like this really happen? Could someone break into our most sensitive computers?”, and, after looking into it for a week, the general came back with the reply “Mr. president, the problem is much worse than you think.”, which prompted Reagan into setting off a series of interagency memos and studies that led to the signing of classified national security decision directive NSDD-145, “National Policy on Telecommunications and Automated Information Systems Security.”.
So… yeah, things probably actually were that bad, or even worse (except for the AI bit, of course).
Huh. English is my third language and, sure, the accent is quite thick, but I have no problem understanding him.
Brad Pitt in Snatch, now… he is completely unintelligible to me.
He could still be shot from behind. To be safe he should have bulletproof glass on all sides. Also above and below, to account for drones and communist molemen. And make sure it’s airtight, in case someone throws toxic gas at him.
Let me tell you, most people don’t doomscroll 24/7
That’s no excuse for wilful ignorance.
People have kids because that’s what chemistry in their bodies makes them want, that’s what drives us and other species to procreate.
Healthy people also have the ability to control their animal impulses. If you want sex, use contraceptives. If you for some reason want children, adopt.
Things are bad, but these arrogant and condescending comments are extremely stupid.
You’re projecting now. What’s arrogant, selfish, and extremely stupid (and downright sadistic) is to bring more children into this fucked up world.
You aren’t better or smarter than people who have kids.
At least I’m not responsible for the suffering and eventual death of any other human beings.
Having children is morally equivalent to murder by itself (you are directly responsible for your children’s future deaths, which wouldn’t be possible if you hadn’t caused them to be alive to start with), these days it’s murder and torture.
Except for the hands (which are still losers, but small).
Horizontal gene transfer is a thing amongst bacteria, so yeah, possibly (except in no way whatsoever like a wolf dog hybrid, entirely different mechanism).
There’s also ancient viruses, which are much more terrifying and probably have a better chance at having been preserved.
Contraceptives exist, as do abortives in case the first ones fail.
The only two reasons anyone would have kids as the world is going are ignorance, or a sadistic desire to watch said kids suffer. In which case the fun is certainly not consensual (or shared) on the victim’s part.
When one instance enshittifies itself you can just block it.
Also, no greedy little pigboy Spez.
What monopoly…?
There’s multiple app stores for Android, and you can just download and manually install apps if you don’t like any of them… it’s Apple that doesn’t want third party stores in their phones…
Wise. One would steal and sell it, the other would fuck it.
