This post has ~800 upvotes and ~150 comments. Lemme is doing great. It would be nice if the smaller communities were bigger, but there was a point on Reddit probably around 2015ish where it became too many people. I am enjoying this way more. Making a comment doesn’t feel like shouting into a crowd of shouting people the way that Reddit does. There is actual conversation.

So stupid. There’s a good stand up bit that covers it - https://youtube.com/shorts/jrBlC3q0Fwo

On a different side of the coin, the virtue signaling also bothers me. I was at a fast casual restaurant and went to use the bathroom and the sign on the door said “Gender neutral bathroom” and I was like “oh word, that’s pretty progressive I like this place” and then I walked in and there’s one toilet and a sink and the door locks. Motherfucker, that’s just a bathroom. You don’t need to specify “gender neutral” when it’s a one-person bathroom. Fuck outa here.

Well they ain’t gonna brick my SreamDeck, so I say go for it Nintendo.

Not that I think this is acceptable behavior, but I’m okay with them pushing people away from their systems into using alternatives.

This is a self-own.

They never should have shot that gorilla.

If you really want to rustle their jimmies, remind them that tomatoes came from South America, and weren’t introduced until westward exploration.

Check out ep 140 of Darknet Diaries. There are some weird sickos out there with a lot of time on their hands.

Step 1 - Create a depression unlike we have ever seen and make people desperate for any job they can get.

But… But line. Line go up.

Youre telling me that exploiting the workers, making life horrible and expensive for the middle and lower class while giving tax breaks to the ultra wealthy makes the line not go up?

B… But line. Line go up!

I used to be really good at video games, but now I just don’t have the time. I remember being able to jump in any CS lobby and jump to the top of the server. I got kicked for supposedly cheating all the time. That was always a good feeling. Knowing that I’m kicking so much ass that people assume I must be cheating.

My crowning achievement is beating Super Ghouls and Ghosts - both times through (second time with the farie bracelet). This was using an original SNES, no save states or anything. Dedicated an entire summer of my teenage life to it. Game is hard, man.

Computers used to be a hobby but I turned that into a career. I’m a principal systems engineer and I like to think I’m good at what I do.

I got really into cooking, and it was maybe a hobby at some point, but now with a family it’s more of a necessity. A lot of the things I learned while cooking as a hobby turned into skills though. I’m not sure how to explain it, but like having cooking intuition. Knowing when to add more or less of something just by knowing. Also just being able to freestyle meals out of what is laying around or knowing what can be substituted with what or how to make ingredients out of other ingredients.

My thoughts exactly. If we could make solar panels more effective and cheaper in addition to having a way to store and quickly discharge that energy safely, we could power houses, cars, etc all without emission. Would love it if the batteries didn’t have short lives as well.

Theres some cool solid state battery tech on the horizon, but it always seems to be on the horizon and never actually showing up.

Hah. I just got my first one today. I immediately chalked it up to spam, but didn’t know it was so widespread. Hilarious.

I’m not even sure I would call it “low income households”, more like “older building/houses”. Plenty of expensive apartment units are in old buildings (I’m looking at you NYC) without proper ventilation.

I own a unit in a co-op in a building that is over 100 years old. I have a gas stove. There is a vent on my above-range microwave but it’s just a filter that blows it back into the room. I do a lot of cooking. I’m in danger.

This is why I always try and find a parking spot closest to a cart corral. People go crazy trying to get a spot closest to the front of the store, but ultimately your last stop before getting in your car should be at the cart corral. Yes, sometimes this means parking further away from the front door, but I have functioning legs and walking an extra 30 feet isn’t a problem.

Nah, the Stop n Shop I go to has portable scan guns, it’s really the best. If I have to shop somewhere that doesn’t have these, it will ruin my day. For the uninitiated, it’s a portable bar code scanner with a little screen on it. You scan items as you take them off the shelf, put them in your bags, and when you are done shopping there is a “checkout” button on the gun/screen that generates a barcode. Scan that barcode at the self checkout, pay, and be on your way. It is peak grocery shopping efficiency.

I used to have this as a kid, but with very thinly sliced apples in there as well. Damn now I kind of want one.

While this article is about upgrading to Win11, not necessarily a clean install, I found the best way to bypass the requirements is to make an autounnatend with Schneegans.de . Make a Win11 installation USB, generate an autounnatend to bypass the requirements, remove bloat, allow offline install (local account instead of Microsoft account), and a couple other little tweaks like dark mode etc. Drop the xml on the root of the flash drive, and boom.

Or… You know… Install Linux.

A little disappointed that it doesn’t have a butthole.
