“I don’t understand, if you don’t want crushed orphans, just don’t toss them in the orphan crushing machine”

Well maybe they shouldn’t have an orphan crushing machine in the first place.

An M72 LAW rocket launcher tube, sitting in the center of the living room, on end. No coffee table, just that sitting upright in between the couch and TV.

“we’re not doing illegal, and no you can’t check.”

-People doing illegal things

The petco groomer decided to shave my dogs’ entire ass because he “didn’t want to brush out butt tangles today”, his exact words when we went to collect our dog.

He’s a great Pyrenees Collie mix.

His hair went from long and silky with an undercoat, to frizzy, thick, unmanageable mess that has to be brushed twice a day to prevent mats.

Congrats bitch, now my dog will never have his hair be normal again because you didn’t want to do your job right.

Hey they can have my old GPU if they give me a new blank laptop.

I’ve always wanted to try linux

Here’s the thing…

“what non piracy reasons are there”

“If you have nothing to hide then what’s the problem with putting a camera in the bathroom. What non crime reasons could there be?”

Really though, if you’re technically proficient enough for torrenting and vpns, you’re proficient enough to convert to newer formats, too.

So even then, it’s really just not that big a deal. Other than being a once-used format for the platform. And honestly how many devices are still functioning that can only use mobi? Heck I have a 10 year old Kindle somewhere that probably has 4 or 5 different formats from about 10 different sources.

People are a bit nicer in general here, I think, although certain niche subreddit were far more welcoming to newcomers.

I’ve only had two people on lemmy so far tell me my thoughts are stupid without bothering to explain why they feel this way, and only one person has assumed they know my life from a single comment. (homer_so_far.gif)

I have yet to see a single interaction where someone has changed someone else’s mind in an amicable and polite way with both thanking each other for their time though.

I tend to focus less on news post comments though. Someone calling me an idiot because I don’t blindly support something or someone doesn’t phase me.

Someone breaking down my comment about why Picard is a better starfleet captain than Commander Sisko and giving me reasons why I’m stupid for thinking that? That’ll stay with me for a few days.

Perhaps I just don’t interact unless it seems like the general vibe agrees with me, and therefore people are more likely to be nice, because I don’t like rejection and mean comments are just different kinds of rejection, so I hide in places I know will like me.

0 reason to interact when you know there’s a good chance you will come out unhappy, I get it.

Woot! I’m more of a lurker but I comment occasionally (not necessarily smart or informed as they should be ones) and I would love to post in recreations of some of my favorite niche places, but running them is quite an investment…

I’m pumped I can still see star trek memes though.

You do have a point there. But I have a very poor view of companies and their data breaches, so I’m certainly biased.

Two years is nothing. It’s literally a pittance in order to silence to plebs.

My data got stolen from the DOD in 2015, and I still have identity theft protection from it, and STILL have issues pop up every year. Without the last 8 years of protection, I’d be completely fucked.
