Reddit@lemmy.world•Two accounts on Reddit post 30%-50% of all content on r/conservative on a daily basis except one day when there happened to be a power outage in part of Moscow
2·2 months agoReminds me of an old soviet joke:
Q: Now that Stalin has died, what happened to his cult of personality?
A: The personality has died, that is true, but the cult lives on.
“Advanced Privacy” app on /e/-os (opensource android ROM) sends me occasional notifications about apps with most trackers haha. Also has a “wall of shame” (it’s literally called that) where you can browse the worst offending apps
Pretty sure there is a sizeable demographic of people who fantasize about falling in love with an elf precisely because their relationship would be like that of a pet and owner
EDIT why did I have to go and type that out. Cannot stop thinking about 1000 year old condescending dommy mommy elf GF now. fml
The original headline is “‘No Way to Prevent This’ says only country where this regularly happens”. If you look closely at OP’s meme, you can actually see the font changes after the “only” (baseline is slightly lower; uses lighter color; kerning of
evein “Prevent” is completely different )But yeah shit take anyway, just because the US is famous for shootings doesn’t mean that it’s any more dangerous than other country
Just for anyone else in the thread: this doesn’t work lmao.
I used to be depressed and anxious af. Took a break from uni, moved back in with my parents, went to therapy, got better, joined a book club, started hanging out more at social centers and talking to people, got a part-time job as a waiter, started working out and paying attention to my looks… still no gf. You can’t become a successful person by merely going through the motions of what you think a successful person’s life looks like. You can’t cargo cult your way into happiness.

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that cholesterol is only found in significant quantities in animal products.
11·4 months agoYou know this will only make people want to dig deeper, right? Whoever is paying you off to pretend like nothing is going on should’ve really told you to use an alt or something.

You Should Know@lemmy.world•No LUFS regulations are the reason you use subtitles to watch TV – Tom Scott YT (7:58)
2·4 months agoCan we stop with this subtle EU propaganda slop? I LIVE in an EU country and I have the exact same problem with modern movies. This has nothing to do with who gets to make the laws, there are only two reasons why everything needs subtitles now:
- Because of advancements in microphone technologies, actors don’t need to speak as clearly and are getting lazy as a result.
- Movies producers are assholes who think that everyone has a 50000$ surround sound home theater system and master the movie soundtracks accordingly – which makes explosions and action scenes sound WAY TOO LOUD on normal people sound systems.

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK about qalculate, an opensource, versatile calculator with nice cli(and gui)
1·4 months agoI love how new versions of the CLI have the result automatically update as you type. Nice to see people going above and beyond to make CLI’s pleasant!

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: there's a browser extension called "SingleFile", which allows you to save any page into a single HTML file.
1·4 months agoAlso recommending ArchiveBox – it takes the shotgun approach to archiving websites, making snapshots with a bunch of different tools, singlefile being among them. You can use it as a one-shot command, or run it as a web server which provides a UI for archiving web pages. Linkwarden is similar.

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: enable smooth display in Android
11·4 months agoIMHO the only reason to go above 60Hz is for better responsiveness in competitive games. Otherwise it’s just a meme, definitely a total gimmick on smartphones.

News@lemmy.world•Trump says he’s designating Antifa as a terrorist organization
2·5 months agoDidn’t he already do that in his last term? I still remember the jokes people made back then, like “how can it be a terrorist organization if it’s not receiving weapons shipments from the US government!?”

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How to find offline alternatives to software-as-a-service and apps with unnecessary internet connections?
6·5 months agoI sadly can’t recommend any communities for this, but what I do know is that search engines have been basically useless for finding software alternatives for a while. Search results are just full of for-profit bullshit trying to sell you their stupid app or low-effort list sites like alternativeto.net. If I need to find an offline alternative to some specific tool, as ironic as it is, I usually just ask an LLM. They work pretty well as a sort of reverse-search engine for finding software based on a description of the features.

Sounds like a very elegant way to fuck over screenreader users

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the weirdest thing you're upset about?
4·6 months agoDuring my quantum mechanics course in year one of uni the lecturer spent the entirety of first lecture essentially ranting about how all of these “interpretations” of quantum mechanics are a complete waste of time with zero practical application. So you’re not alone on this one.
EDIT wait no lmao the course wasn’t even on quantum mechanics it was on electromagnetism, the lecturer just had a personal gripe against all this quantum bullshit lol.











At this point I have completely given up on printer drivers. I just put files on a usb stick and plug it into the printer to print. Printer doesn’t have that functionality? Oh well, it’s as good as broken to me. Biking to the local library will take less time and kill less nerve cells than troubleshooting that piece of crap. I can only pray for people like you who have to work with this mess on the daily.
