  • LibreOffice Leave X/Twitter in favor of Mastodon

    Jump

  • Is there any data on how many actual people still regularly use Twitter? I feel like you're assuming that that's where the users are, and maybe that's still true, but I don't know a single real life person who still actually uses it.

  • OpenAI researcher quits over ChatGPT ads, warns of "Facebook" path

    Jump

  • Seriously. As someone who only did a few prompts and chats when it first came out, I do not understand what people are getting so much use out of. I guess they just mostly trust the bullshit it spits out so it seems like it saves time?

  • British Woman Shot Dead by Father After Arguing About Donald Trump

    Jump

  • Sorry, I think my brain did a swapsies with the J months.

    While I think these types of events do show how news media covers individual violence differently, I find it kinda annoying to have any reports on individual acts of violence on a "world news" community unless those individual actions have larger effects. Reporting individual acts of violence from any "other" side gives people an unhealthy justice boner.

  • Is the current world not terrible or eventful enough that we need to post articles about individual actions from fucking JULY?!

    I guess Lemmy is becoming Reddit.

  • BASED?

    Jump

  • It's nice that you reimburse the shops after your cravings subside.

  • Andrew Tate is ’too smart to read’ and says books are for ‘slow brains’

    Jump

  • I think mocking might work for some people, but there certainly seem to be a ton of people running around with absolutely no shame. These people can't be fought with mockery because they'll just use it to boost their userbase. This is how we've ended up in this weird cult of personality environment.

    IDK the best way to distinguish between the mockable and the unmockable, but it'd be nice to have a method.

  • “This Was Not Accidental”: Scientists Unravel Video Supposedly Showing a Pet Cow Using Tools

    Jump

  • While I think it's a nice thought, I still find the idea that humans are the ONLY "storytellers" to be falling into the same trap as tool use. Just because we haven't witnessed or recorded it doesn't mean that other species don't tell "stories".

    Heck, even crows learn faces and then tell other crows about those faces. If that's not some form of "storytelling" idk what is.

  • Veteran: "My nation is under attack."

    Jump

  • What the hell is this comment? Do you literally need an individual video from every single veteran to believe that there are more of them out there fighting this shit? I'm legitimately confused.

  • Large crowd uses civil disobedience to shut down MSP airport during the statewide economic shutdown in protest of tyranny (Minnesota | 01/23/26 | -15°F)

    Jump

  • It's not right in the middle of the city, but there is a direct light rail train that goes to it and it's not very far.

  • Disagree. Being nice and having empathy is actually really fucking easy, at least to the people you directly interact with. It's only hard when we're burnt out, which capitalism is really good at making everyone.

  • If you're a parent, how do you prevent your kid from watching AI slop?

    Jump

  • You sound like a great parent, and this should ideally be how every parent teaches their kids. Trust, open discussion, and a welcoming environment for questions.

  • I feel that too. I don't think that there's something wrong with you. There's something wrong with society. Nobody does things best the same way, and society has a heavy preference for a specific way of doing things.

  • The show I was watching went from "Free" to "Paid" while I was watching it

    Jump

  • Absolutely agree. When I got out of college, I was like "I have some money finally, I'll support the shows and movies I want to watch by actually buying them online outright and streaming everything else legally!"

    And then several of the things I "bought" got removed from my library several years later.

    Then instead of 2 or 3 streaming platforms, there were suddenly 6.

    Then every streaming service kept shuffling around my favorite shows.

    And suddenly, the experience of paying for the content I wanted to watch became way too cumbersome.

  • Over 19,000 games have released on Steam in 2025, with nearly half seeing fewer than 10 reviews

    Jump

  • So skip those reviews and scroll down to the ones that resonate with you.

    Any bigger game with meme/stream potential is gonna get a few idiots writing nonsense reviews for the lols , but in guarantee that there are still plenty of very relevant reviews that are useful for deciding if you'll vibe with a game

  • Too much can seem like love bombing, but genuine compliments are so rare!

  • Oh yeah then explain Tenet

    Jump

  • Also I think they literally tell you (just not in English) why they're shooting at it at the beginning of the movie.

  • This Lemmy thread is wild. The post says "being kind is free" , it doesn't say shitty people aren't ever nice. Yet several replies are this weird reaction of "no fuck you being nice is dumb".

    Does the mere suggestion - that being kind is a good starting point when interacting with others - cause some sort of defensive reaction here?

  • We're learning more about what Vitamin D does to our bodies

    Jump

  • For me, it isn't a dramatic "I feel different", but I notice myself spiralling and feeling extremely down a lot less.
