I was thinking the same thing. Would love a source

This is like sandy hook. When America let all those kids die without flinching, the moment had passed

Probably more like “I’m backing your bitch trump. When (pls god no) he wins, I’ll give you access to space tech and you can crush Ukraine. Please Senpai notice me” <lapping noises> <Elon smells putins dirty asshole>

This was at the top when I opened the thread and I’m glad I read it. Anyone who downvotes you is doing it because you are contradicting their biases. Your comment gave me something to think about.

I think the reason everyone is applauding this is because liberals/left-leaning have read enough literature to confirm the dangers of alcohol and other strongly addictive substances. Newer research shows the positive effects of psychedelics but they’re yet unproven as categorically better than other prescription medications.

When lemmings (who are mostly very left leaning and decently educated) see people doing things that can show the positive effects of psychedelics, they applaud it without much critical thought.

Comments like yours not being downvoted to oblivion and then hidden are the reason that Lemmy is still decent. For now

Android syncthing announced they’re stopping development this year. Open source got fucked double today

What is the joke? Seems a few people have made a similar comment

This was my first thought. I haven’t had the same os installed for a few months max, nevermind 3 years

Totally agree. American people have proven that they will vote for the most rotten cunt possible as long they’re racist and misogynistic enough. You here are dozens of mini-trumps all over the US. This election is a short term requirement that he loses but the work will take years or decades. I hope for the future of mankind

Not suspicious at all

Agreed. Took me a moment to realise they didn’t drop to zero. !dataisugly

I’ve been looking for a decent pair of nail clippers for ages. Just ordered, thanks!

Does her gymnastics title make her more valuable to society?

Read this in Tina Belcher’s voice. Might be watching too much Bob’s Burgers

I upvoted until I got to the end. Had me in the first half

Literally addressed in the first paragraph. They say 80% it’s twice the normal failure rate

Interviewing is a very specific muscle. You should try and do as many as you can. It’s also something you should regularly practice, even if you have a job you love and never want to leave. I’d say every year or two, just go and interview at a half dozen companies for roles that could be interesting to you.

I’ve just been through several rounds of interviews with different companies for a tech role. You want to build a brand and learn to communicate it to others. This doesn’t mean you need to write a laundry list of skills that you’ve obtained but rather define who you are and practice explaining that to strangers.

Nothing can prepare you for an interview scenario except and interviews. I’ve been in customer facing roles as well as being the interviewer and the only thing they have in common with being interviewed is that you’re sharing a table with someone else.

Good luck for tomorrow!

My Apple Watch 7 (two years old) and AirPod pro gen 1 (three years old) are both having hardware issues. I took them to Apple who said “we don’t, we replace and the cost of a watch SE and AirPod pros 2 cost the same as a replacement of your devices”. I now have $600 of e-waste sitting in my drawer.

The experience really turned me off Apple but no one else is better. The whole ecosystem is garbage. I think I’ll learn to live without the watch but there’s no other totally wireless headphones that suit my needs and I’ll end up replacing them.

The gold standard of personal devices has set the scene and consumers are left with no option but to buy devices that have limited lifespans. No such as buy it for life in 2024.

Gamifying the voting incentivises people to make low quality posts and comments. That’s why Reddit is now basically just rage bait fake stories with comment chains that all look exactly the same. And now it’s all just ai generated anyway.

I sometimes visit and read the AITAH type stories and I’m dumbfounded that people can believe or enjoy reading them. All the subtleties and nuances of the early days are gone and it’s a race to who can karma farm the hardest.

The other thing that made Reddit great in early days were the small communities being visible on the front page. It made the content varied and there were different types of posting hitting front page. I think Lemmy is struggling with this because politics is just so loud that we don’t have enough volume of other content being made.
