Cigarettes should be too expensive for anyone to buy. They ruin a lot of beautiful moments. I hate being at some party and having some idiot forcing these cancer particles into my nose because they’re too lazy to go outside to smoke.

It’s a bit silly, because this kind of meme can definitely be interpreted as both a bigoted meme and as a sort of “ironic” kinda meme that is quite often posted in LGBT+ circles. It uses a lot of outdated terms like “Transsexual” and “Hermaphrodite”, but then also has the more LGBT+ shitpost stuff like “pet walking on keyboard - Other”. And indeed the absurdity of asking gender everywhere in the first place. I choose to pick the LGBT+ positive interpretation, but idk whether that’s its actual meaning.

That was hard to read, damn. I can read German quite well, but the font basically makes the capital letters a pure gamble to me. I guess this is a lesson to always listen to speaking cats lol.

Edit: Like “Der Vater hat’s verboten”. “Vater” is written more like “Bater” in this font

Damn this looks good. I’ll probably get it even though I already have Assetto Corsa and ACC. Thanks for sharing!

Lol, that’s absolutely not what I mean. Please keep all the “wokies” here. As long as “woke” means accepting people regardless of race, sexuality, gender, etc.

It’s always difficult. On the one hand it’s not great to de-federate based on political opinion. After all, I’d have no issues with these people posting memes and other content, adding non-political insight in non-political communities, and even discussing politics in political communities. An echo chamber doesn’t really help anyone after all. However, these people seem to actively look down on anyone even slightly more right wing as them, and as shown in the examples they also seem likely to aggressively push their views in places where that would not be appreciated. To me defederation seems like the good call, at least temporarily, to ensure that moderators won’t have their hands full. But it would be nice to see at least attempts to federate with these extremists, just to give them a chance to play nice. It would be better in the grand scheme of the fediverse to keep things as connected as possible and to avoid echo chambers.

This is simply not true in my experience. Basically everyone I know has to deal with all kinds of shit when installing Linux. Broken graphics drivers, random freezes, the touchpad disabling after closing the laptop, wifi not working, etc. There’s always something. Now I don’t mind fixing that, because I enjoy Linux more despide all of these issues. Andost of my friends manage to solve it as well because they’re programmers like me. But the average person might not be able to solve it and will feel like they’re constantly interacting with a broken system.

Damn I just woke up from a midday nap, wondering what year it is. Very relatable meme

Sheesh that sounds like hell. I hope the pain subsides soon for you.

This is quite normal on festivals right? I see it all the time on festivals, never really cared that much. You can always move somewhere else

Not my experience. I’ve had multiple old games and an old printer that just straight up didn’t work under Windows. On Linux however (using wine for the windows exe’s) it usually does run. Sometimes it does require some googling, but there’s usually someone who tried it before.

For me “Hot” suddenly started showing fresh posts again after 3 days of stagnation. Nevertheless sorting by “top day” is a genius idea that I’m definitely going to use, thx for the tip!

I never said I was 100% against the idea of communism, nor against people who think it’s a good idea. I’m simply against the subset of commies that seems to blindly defend horrible regimes like the Chinese communist party. And sadly the latter seems well represented here, which is the group I’d refer to as tankies.

Sometimes there’s also the line that goes down at the start of the sprint, because the team still had to finish some dumb busywork to complete a story from the previous sprint.

Weird meme this one. I’m 100% against tankies, or at least the type of communist here who seems hellbent on defending regimes like the Chinese communist party or (especially weird) Putin’s Russia. There’s plenty of stuff wrong about western nations, but that is no excuse for defending dictators and authoritarian regimes. And I’m definitely not the angry pepe in the image, because by all classifications I would be part of the “woke left”.

This change may also be explained because many protestors are still gone. I have barely touched Reddit after the blackout, and the only time I did was to support some of these votes. But inevitably I must’ve missed some. It’s probably a bit of survivorship bias. Though it’s probably also partially that people did indeed realize that they can’t miss the thing they’re addicted to for more than 2 days.

How’s this related to lemmy.world tho?

Ah yes, the Sims 3, a famous shooting game /s. But seriously, are there guns in the sims 3?

I think the problem is moreso (as far as I’ve heard) that the owners of the lemmy.ml instance overlap with the owners of lemmygrad, which is basically the table/authoritarian commie instance. There have been some rumours about posts and comments being deleted for being critical of China/Russia. How much of that is true, I don’t know,l. What I have noticed is that there is a higher percentage of tankies on Lemmy, but they’re still usually down voted when they say dumb stuff.

That’s true, and also my mentality. But when I want to fix my PC and my only lead is a post about the issue with a deleted comment followed by “that fixed it, thx!”, I don’t think I will be as appreciative of this idea. Reddit was a beautiful source of information and it’s kinda painful to see all of that going. Nevertheless I’ve also wiped my profile since most of it was no longer necessary anyway.
