I have long since given up on Normies ever coming to the Indie Web, federated or otherwise

Ever since the big Xwitter exodus, when people went to BlueSky when Mastodon was right there.

It is only for people adopting Linux after 2023

If you did it earlier, like me, you’ll have to purchase your socks separately.

Your striped thigh-highs will be delivered in the mail within a month.

You know this human instinct, when if told we can’t have The Thing, we start wanting it even more?

The American government told its kids that they can’t have The Thing, the thing in this case being tiktok (a Chinese-run social media app)

So they found out about an even MORE Chinese social media app (tiktok was openly courting the west, had an English language app etc, while Rednote is made by the chinese for the Chinese and doesn’t even have a client in English) and went there, which slightly miffed the Chinese userbase suddenly having to deal with all those weirdoes who wanted them to stop speaking mandarin and start speaking english.

It’s just a trend. People are trying to ascribe deep meanings to it because conspiracy thought is entertaining, but really, it’s just a bunch of people following what’s trendy, and either way for any eagle burgers pearl clutching about the red menace, Rednote is covered in the ban because it is a blanket ban on any “apps run by a foreign adversary”. You’ll be safe behind the great american firewall soon.

Ofc, I doubt it’ll be enforced for things like temu and wish.

Nobody likes grammar pedants.

THAT died and got replaced last month.

Came home from a trip

Plugged the machine in

Popping sound

It was dead

Fuck all technology based aesthetics except for whatever it was that Lain was serving.

Hexbear has its origins on Reddit’s ChapoTrapHouse which I’m pretty sure has a connection to leftypol in its history.

But sure

My point is:

Hexbear = Jerkoffs, except class conscious

Would be nice if they weren’t jerkoffs but hey, at least they have class consciousness.

Oh another one of these

Short answer:

“What if 4chan was communist instead of neonazi”

Similar level of assholety and low post quality. Better politics. Overall don’t bother, not worth it.

Yeah I mean. To me “shutting down the computer” means I’ll be going away from it

Like if I’m going out the house or to bed.

At that point I just tell the computer to turn off and walk away

Also really, waiting two minutes is not a big deal. Y’all are too spoiled by modern machines. Just go have a cup of coffee/water/diet coke/take a piss while your OS does its thing if you’re doing a reboot for some reason.

Methinks eventually going completely nuts is part and parcel of the supervillain lifestyle

I know what I signed up for.

Now all I need is a hero type who will antagonise me and mess with my plans… But never kill me or take my wealth to reduce my power. And also we’ll have a rivalry that borders on the homoerotic sexual tension.

Had to go and look. (don’t really pay attention to these things normally)

Wooow, 180 seconds (which probably won’t even get to timeout) when shutting down my computer. My life is ruined forever because I had to wait sooooo much. /sarc

Me dissing yet another “SYSTEMD TAKES TOO LONG TO SHUT DOWN >:(((((((” whinememe on a Linuxmemes community.

I stand by what I said. If waiting 2 minutes for your computer to shut down is so life-ruining for you, you probably don’t even know what a real problem smells like & should probably see a therapist about your lack of basic patience and frustration tolerance

It really is… !

Except Piracy is good actually.

Rip my American friends on Telegram (?)

Gluten free bread lacks any of the pleasant qualities of actual bread (my gluten allergy is “makes you have the shits” and not “kills you”)

You can get good biscuits and cake without gluten. Good cereal. Passable pasta. Even decent pizza crust.

Not bread. Not by a long shot. The best gluten free bread in the world is just decent at its best, not to mention costing 15x the price. REALLY not worth it.

you’re not gonna eat a spoonful of jelly

Speak for yourself mangohead

Down with the tyranny of delicious sweet things being spread on salty bread which ruins their taste. I eat jams and Nutella like they’re a dessert.

But im allergic to gluten :(

Still pretty efficient if they also hit the gym and make their arms/back strong.

They carry a lot less than a vehicle, but the travel time is instant.

I feel ‘Magic’ is able to cover a lot of these…

Anyway

Immortality, Insanely Rich, Magic.

I will then become a supervillainous evil wizard. Sorry-not-sorry.

Ad-free internet stuff.

Computer Operating Systems

A lot of Software actually
