A sustained drone campaign that targets people is about as scary as nukes.

I think most artists do, but a lot of people also insist upon them. They also suffer from the problem of being so influential that they were copied to death, which makes them sound derivative even though they were the inventors.

Canadians may not be bicontinental, but they are a little euro-curious.

Those amazon workers don’t even work for amazon, they work for contractors who pay way under the typical wage of UPS and FedEx.

Lot’s of drug induced paranoia.

It is genuinely scary, but most don’t understand how the system works. This is like the Republicans winning Texas except part of the Republican party refuses to work with the other part because they are nazis. So the sane half work with the democrats to keep the Nazis from having influence.

There’s a style to autocratic regimes where the dress uniforms tend to be exaggerated and modern, whereas western democracies tend to display regimental history and use softer stylings. One wants to project power and central authority the other peace, cooperation, and historical influence.

Star Wars and Starship Troopers were both trying to recreate the old SS uniforms, which is exactly what this is. Same influences and source material.

Oh ya well, go back to your country. Oh you already live there? Well…keep doing that!

Lemmy has already hit critical mass. More people means more bots, state actors, and trolls. But it also means more memes and small subs.

I don’t need a reason to boycott the new series. It looks like it’s going to be shiite anyway.

Kinda like how Sara Bareilles wrote “I’m not gonna write you a love song” in response to the execs asking her to write a love song and it was a hit. Now that I think of it, maybe this is a common excuse for artists who write corporate slop. They just blame the system and plead for “irony.”

Wake me up when the knitting pattern can play doom.

My TV is 15 years old and works fine. Getting the best TV out there is not very meaningful anymore.

Faraday laminate around the antenna also.

It’s a lot of dead internet with most posts being dredged up reposts and celeb gossip/worship (which has gotten way worse btw). It’s starting to resemble instagram "memes’ and the nerdier shit is definitely coming over here.

I can get out of lemmy what I got out of reddit a long time ago. It only takes a few hundred smart/funny people to make a chat board good. We’re here now. Hopefully some of the niche communities get ported over soon enough, but the real greatness of reddit was that it was mostly uncensored and intelligent opinion. That’s mostly dead.
