Negative. I am a meat popsicle.

Yeah, I’d disable that if I could. I’d much rather have no thumbnail than an animated one.
Some mowers are designed that way. Mine advertised “no oil changes”, but really it means I have to add oil a couple times a year instead of draining it.
Chase is copaganda.
Fuck them for these games. It’s an abuse of their market position.
Does Google offer a phone number for me to contact them about problems with their half-assed products? I’ve tried lots of times to reach a human being, but never raised a response as a private citizen.
That’s not what I consider negligible on my phone, which is already resource constrained. Yes, I have a problem with an app that intentionally wastes my valuable resources. I wouldn’t care so much from my desktop, but I mostly just use a desktop client to do things I can’t easily do on my mobile clients.
No big deal. It’s not as if my participation is especially valuable. I would just participate less.
edit: my objection is obviously more in principal than it is practical, but it would hardly be the first time I walked away from software (or a network) on philosophical grounds.
Never heard of, eg, Vioxx or thalidomide, I take it?
That’s a hard NO from me, dawg. If Lemmy goes down that path, I will just not comment. My account settings let me just block bots. I dont need my resources wasted so I can interact with the “good bots”.
Since the requests it uses to fetch communities from the remote instances are unauthenticated, it won’t show you any that are marked NSFW.

I once decided to actually use the dread command.
rm -rf /
I was nuking the OS, so fuck it.
Forgot to unmount my data first…
Yeah, that’s not especially enormous compared to startups in the valley offering huge equity alongside already generous compensation packages.
Which is ironic considering the source.
Mostly because I’m a failure at being a functional human being. Sometimes it’s because I stubbed my toe, or I hit my funny bone. Usually it’s the soul-crushing despair, though.
Apes aren’t monkeys.
I guess it really is an unpopular opion. Lol. I have have eye fatigue issues with HDR too, though.
I also can’t watch 3D for more than 5 minutes without getting a migraine. I don’t know enough about how the display works to know why. Both feel like it is trying to fool my eyes and my brain doesn’t like it. Maybe my eyes/brain get fatigued trying to play along. Some types of HDR seem to bother me more than others. I can watch an HDR movie mostly fine.
A fist bump is a kind of dap, for example…

It…is a real gif though. In fact, there’s more than one used for that meme.( I was posting from my phone and didn’t have time to find the actual gif last night. )

I always have a tablet or an old phone lying around.
