  • Props to the camera person for showing the message.

    Every small resistance counts ✊

  • As a one of her foreign subjects. May I say god save the Queen, because nothing will save the Governor General.

    Fuck the queen, fuck the monarchy.

  • Sounds illegal

  • Source? If someone said this, that's basically an admission of guilt.

  • Some. Many, if not most, are just flawed human beings.

    I don't enjoy this "everyone sucks" mentality you see online a lot.

  • Using an LLM for anything other than language, weird software questions, and really terrible low-stakes coding just seems like a stupid idea to me.

    It can save time in certain contexts, but pretty much only in writing you some headings for a report or something. Using it for NUMBERS is insane.

  • Oh yeah, no issue with how you've used it. I'm just publically grumbling about the term's existence haha

  • employee-owned

    is such a euphemism, in my opinion. Law firms are often "employee-owned".

    It has internal shareholders, they're not a co-op, and should be viewed like any other for profit business.

  • Is the Sabbath Sunday? I thought it was Saturday. But regardless, some countries start the week on Sunday.

    It's cursed as heck when we call Saturday and Sunday the weekend.

  • 2015 can be written as Y-2.015E3S4

    When would this ever be required, wtf hahaha

  • I routinely do this in emails and documents. No one has ever questioned me on it because they're used to it from folder/file names.

    Please do join me in slowly changing the world over to year, month, day order.

    (Though I prefer the non-standard dots instead of hyphens, as they are non-line-breaking, and allows for hyphens to be used as separators for other parts in a file along with underscores)

    YYYY.MM.DD is my fave

  • I'm glad this meme is known internationally

  • Is it? Seemed like a dig specifically at the fact that China doesn't have a true union movement. Not a dog at communism in general.

    China isn't communist, nor very socialist, for that matter.

    Capitalism with Chinese characteristics seems more of an apt description.

    Pointing out that China is a dictatorship doesn't mean that socialism is bad.

  • My least favourite argument is them pointing to the reduction in poverty.

    Like, I could say the same for capitalism. Which I won't because capitalism needs to be abolished, but just "there was a massive reduction in poverty therefore system good" is stupid.

    Tankies aren't socialists in my eyes because socialism necessarily needs to be democratic control by the people.

  • Fault based divorce is already a stupid concept (under the law).

    Someone MAY be at fault, but you should never need to provide a reason beyond "I don't want to anymore" to commence divorce proceedings.

    Marriage is just legal protections for the partners in the event of a separation (i.e. rights to split assets and whatnot).

    But it's still entirely voluntary.

    Well, in nice countries anyway.

    Rent is theft

  • Apparently not liking capitalism lumps you in with the tankies.

    Do you even know what tankie means?

  • It's silly that they don't just operate from the browser. It's how I use Patreon on my (admittedly not iPhone) Phone.

    They should have just pulled Patreon from the app store.

    It's not like it's such an impediment to ask users to use their browser.

    In an ideal world we would not have monopolies controlling app stores, but I think Patreon is really stupid for not just abandoning the app store.

  • Don't let Nintendo see this thread 0_0

    You wouldn't emulate a handbag

  • This seems insane to me. You cannot latch the handle to continue dispensing, without actively holding it in Australia (and I imagine most countries?)

    Seems insane because it's removing a layer of protection (you, noticing the automatic shut off mechanism isn't working) for barely any benefit.

    Though, I don't know the statistics on how much this contributes to extra spills or fires.
