where once I dedicated myself to upsetting dipshits on the internet, I now prioritize upsetting dipshits in government.

please do be warned, I'm still very good at upsetting dipshits on the internet. if you're here because you're upset, well... oops.

  • He was the "diabeetus" guy, an old meme. He also played Blair in The Thing.

  • "People were just not ready for" Starfield, says game's composer as he talks "visionary" Todd Howard

  • I honestly don't remember, a cursory search told me $70 but regardless of which it wasn't worth it then and it's barely worth $15 now, from what I know of the game. Tons of different games (No Man's Sky, Outer Worlds 1 & 2, Elite: Dangerous to name a few) do different parts of Starfield 100x better than Starfield does it, often for less money. I can have a far more enjoyable time playing a mixture of those games than by playing a half-baked Bethesda attempt that does all of it -- from the roleplaying to the space exploration to combat in space -- badly.

  • if by that you mean people were not ready to pay $70 for a giant steaming pile of shit, then yes, they were "not ready for it."

  • John Fetterman says Iran girls’ school strike is just a leftist craze

    Jump

  • I am so goddamn tired of having to vote for the least awful choice instead of even a decent choice. Compared to the literal snake oil sales king of TV, almost anyone else looks good -- but we can see how that's worked out.

  • Do people hate each other more each passing day, or is it just hate getting more and more blatant with internet?

    Jump

  • every now and again, I fantasize about living in the far north of Canada with fiber internet and a warm cabin miles away from the nearest living soul.

    Then I remember reality, where I am poor, gay, disabled, American, and probably going to die here either to an Iranian-linked terror attack or my own increasingly christofascist government.

    I don't necessarily hate everybody, but I don't go out of my way to interact with others that much already and over the past couple years I've felt far less inclined to, both online and in real life. Nowadays I mostly just interact with pets, family, and the people I have to interact with to earn money. Lemmy's a nice, impersonal social outlet. People in person aren't necessarily more trustworthy, the veneer of civility is just thicker.

  • Trump promises to endorse Jake Paul for office before the pair enjoy a YMCA dance together

    Jump

  • That's an insult to President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho, and you will speak of that fictional moron with respect. He was still a leader that wanted the best for his countrymen, and knew well enough to defer to the smartest man in the room. That's about as far from Trump as you can get in terms of "vibes".

  • I choose to blame the stroke.

    Actual, factual brain damage is no joke, and there was a reason he won the election he was in. He was genuinely not insane/traitorous before his stroke.

    The more cynical option is that he was always like this and merely wanted to screw over the leftists of Pennsylvania by running under a D ticket, but frankly I think brain damage from stroke leading to sudden onset fascist sympathies is both more likely (brain damage can have really fucking weird effects) and way funnier in a certain context

  • “God is nonbinary”: GOP activates over Talarico’s past comments characterizing him as too radical for Texas

    Jump

  • I don't know either, but I'd say my original point stands. "nothing" is still shorter than saying "everything"

  • I think it'd take less time to write down the things that aren't.

    Lemmy – lacking tolerance and acceptance?

    Jump

  • Sure, but you said intolerance for any non-Linux OS, and that's just simply not true as there are several non-Linux OS's we love. If you were to say Lemmy is intolerant specifically of Windows, that would be more accurate, but I'm also aware of at least one subset of die-hard Windows aficionados on Lemmy who vehemently hate Linux. Definitely a minority, but they're there.

    Also, the db0 instance is pro-AI as I recall, so anyone who's keen on that sort of thing is (to my knowledge) welcome there.

  • On the contrary, I believe everyone here holds a special place in their heart for TempleOS, even if it's not a practical choice. Also most everyone here has mad respect for anyone rocking some other niche nerd shit like FreeBSD or ReactOS etc. (I do, anyways)

    Mostly it's just that Windows has sucked for at least a decade and macOS is just starting on its suck arc.

  • being the "errrrrrm, ackshually, you just committed a logical fallacy 🤓" dweeb in response to someone else being questioned whether they're a fascist sympathizer, when that doesn't actually invalidate what I said at all, when I wasn't even talking to you -- that's an extraordinary kind of self-own, you do know that, right?

    I'm gonna engage with fascists and fascist sympathizers on the same level that they engage in good-faith debate in -- that is to say, on whatever level I want to at any given moment in time. If they aren't one, let them explain what innocent ideas they've expressed that are so poorly received, that have lead them to believe Lemmy is "lacking tolerance and acceptance" -- we've got entire instances dedicated to porn, anarchists, AI lovers, tankies, trans people, furries, the French -- I'm very eager to hear what could possibly be Too Spicy For Lemmy that is not something along the lines of "I want to gas undesirables" or trending towards that direction.

  • far right: we’re gonna exterminate entire social groups because they’re impure

    far left: we’re gonna get everyone’s basic needs met, and do everything possible (including violence) to stop the far right from exterminating anyone.

    You: I literally cannot tell you two apart

    Incredible, thank you for sharing.

  • usually whenever someone complains about this sort of thing, it's because they got told off for espousing fascist bullshit, so please, elaborate for us.

  • public service

  • Dealing with that level of performative bullshit is genuinely agonizing to me. LinkedIn is like my idea of personal hell -- everyone, everywhere, up their own ass and completely full of shit, all the time -- and I have resolved to never have a net worth or job title that would necessitate using it.

  • Sometimes I wonder if the subtext of religion is; if you join one youre telling on yourself that you can easily be manipulated.

  • What about the mass of the ass, beauty of the cutie, direction of the erection, dimension of the extension, the motion of the ocean and the size of the rise? All factors must be accounted for and kept in perfect balance in relation to one another, you can't just give half the formula and then ask the rest of us to extrapolate.

  • How are you going to talk nicely to yourself today?

  • actually it is my belief that one should not be carrying on conversations with oneself full stop, regardless of the nature of their tone.
