Same, we had texting and snake, but if the teacher saw you doing either (aside from maybe shop class) they would confiscate it til the end of class.

Ha, I definitely used it ironically a couple of times over the last 25 years. R.i.p buddy, you’ll be missed…

Yeah, I remember hating the syncing. Just fucking let me select the files and drag it over! Then every software company decided that they needed to idiot proof every fucking thing to the same extent over the next 20 years. I fucking hate Apple’s devs for that.

My work offered an AI chatbot therapist. Like to, I’m not putting all my negative feelings into a company sponsored LLM to fucking have it say, “no relax guy, it’ll be OK.” Like it’s a fucking clanker. It doesn’t have feelings. It’s not fucking real. It’s a slap in the face that they even offer it.

Yeah, and I was watching them starting to get back into them and the news hit. Super sad.

I don’t see him on here, but Trevor Moore hit me super hard. I grew up watching WKUK, and was a big fan. He was only a couple years older than me, and what really resonated with me was that he had a son the same age as mine. It just got me thinking about my own mortality and what grief I would put my wife and son through if I’d passed away, and really put me in a dark place for a while. R.I.P. Trevor.

This one was one of the 1st celebrity deaths to impact me. The worst part was he was not very well known at the time, so nobody knew who I was talking about when I said stuff like “I can’t believe Mitch Hedberg died” which sucked. There was only a couple people I knew that even knew who he was.

I get it, but it was still annoying. Straight to perma ban. I tried to appeal it, pointing out that I had broken no rules and they just muted me. I legitimately don’t think anyone reported my comment, just some mod who likes the guy decided to ban me. It was horseshit.

I called Tim Walz a “spineless fuck” for saying that he would never seek elected office again. Banned from a sub I was active in daily. Apparently you can’t have opinions on public figures if there are bad words involved.

Wasn’t that something proposed in windows phone? I can’t remember and am too lazy to look it up

Damn near 100% of the owners. The Nazimobiles came out after Elon needed all that Saudi money to get him out of the hole he dug saying he’d buy Twitter and in turn started amplifying chud propaganda on Twitter at their request. Anyone with a preorder had an opportunity to cancel and get their money back to not support a fascist. Fuck 'em. Let them eat fire.

This is the way.

How many ~$25 items do you fill out a warranty claim for? Mine went into the bin and I got another.

It sucks ass. I’ve gone through about 5 of them well short of 10 years. I do see that this brand released a new version, but this is the one I had. Absolute garbage. They kept giving false positives, and they have no replaceable batteries so they just become E-waste after you disable them. This is the one I had.

Lol fucking duh

Pretty sure I was unknowingly his drug mule once. He booked 2 cars to pick him up at the airport. 1 for him, and one for his luggage. I was driving the luggage. He booked an SUV, so I was expecting a shitload of items. They brought me 1 backpack. Why’d he book a whole separate car to transport a backpack? Imo drugs he didn’t want to get caught with. I never opened it to see, but I would not be surprised in the least if that’s what it was. Guy was a dick.

Under any previous administration they at the very least respected the law. This administration has given them carte blanche to ignore the law and infringe on the rights of citizens (who they aren’t even supposed to be interacting with). More importantly they weren’t fucking murdering citizens in the streets back then either. This ICE is not the ICE of 2 years ago, not by a long shot. The media is barely even saying how bad ICE is because they fear authoritarian backlash. The world is saying it because we have eyes and ears.

Slap an air tag on their collar if you’re that concerned. I’d rather have less surveillance.

I just got perma banned from a sub for saying Tim Walz was a spineless fuck for stepping down. This was in a political sub. Apparently we can’t be having opinions anymore that aren’t sucking politician dick relentlessly. I messaged them to retort, and they just said something along the lines of we don’t need this kind of rhetoric in the sub. When I replied, saying I just gave my opinion on the actions of a public figure, they muted me.
