Plagiarism is a bad thing

Including plagiarising the dictionary

Healthy optimism

Protests are very good at causing civil unrest, damaging public property, making other peoples days worse, and swaying their view further away from your cause

If any of those are your goal, they can be quite effective

For all intents and purposes it was free word

I haven’t really used word in over half a decade since TeX beats it in every conceivable way.

Wordpad was useful in the sparse few cases where I was forced to open a .doc or .docx and couldn’t be arsed to upload the file to Google docs

I guess it will be missed for that

Not everything that isn’t ublock is automatically bad. Especially if you just want an adblocker and not also all the other stuff it comes with

I love the irony that people nuke your comment

You mean like how you fully purchased a premium account?

I wonder why there are no laws against eforced, unilateral contract adjustments like this. Especially considering “no ads” was an explicit part of the original purchase

You’re right that I inverted it numerically

Though, that’s a communication thing. White people are a minority worldwide but never referred to as such. I used the standard way to refer to the different races even though that is statistically incorrect in the hope of it being more directly obvious what I meant

He means Apartheid

That one went so far that south Africa is the only country to voluntarily unilateraly give up its nuclear arsenal when a minority risked getting to power

Toomba 2: The evil swine return is a piece of nostalgia I can never share

God I hate untagged YouTube links. You think you’re clicking on an image or an article, but nope! And now YouTube thinks you watched a random video and your recommendations get infected with garbage outside of your normally watched channels

Ah yes, the internet, where you get downvoted for voicing that you enjoyed seeing a minor pretty happenstance

Once got the 9999 -> 10k voted on Reddit. Super satisfying and gif’d and commented it in the same post. Predictably got nuked

I feel the opposite. Still all but one opinion gets drowned out. It’s just that now the opinion that survives is the one that screams the loudest rather than the mainstream one

I would consider that a downside tbh

Holding spacebar pressed used to play the video at half speed, due to pausing and unpausing extremely quickly

Now it plays the video at double speed, meaning that I have to set playback speed manually when I want to watch in slow motion

I can see this being preferable in the long run, but damn if it isn’t annoying in the present

Lemmy really needs a super-upvote system

That’s a remarkably terrible Wikipedia article

Did he edit his comment? The current version doesn’t accuse Altman of any felony

Correct. That is why I am not switching

Besides, the EU is shown time and time again that it will protect its citizens if the megacorps overstep their boundaries, so the claim that chrome holds too much power is bs
