They have a knack for giving us things nobody is asking for.

AOL instant messenger was late to the party. ICQ started the instant messaging fad… that little “uh oh” notification sound is permanently burned into my brain.

Utter BS. I’m on the old end of Gen X and I’m still building PCs for people and troubleshooting their shit when it breaks. I have yet to meet a much younger person who can do it as well.

Yeah, people mostly seem to enjoy those crowd cams. If it’s emblematic of anything it would be something about attention-seeking behavior.

Six books are £5.00

Edit: oops

I haven’t bought the game and probably never will, since I don’t like the Dune-iverse at all. I have friends who play it and it’s a 100% online game. I’m sure you could pretend to play solo but you’re still connected to a remote server.

It’s a Moderately Multiplayer (forced) Online game

No link, just an image.

One of them is dead, so his security is perfect. I’m hoping the other one ups his security game real soon now (due to natural causes, obviously).

Most or all of the GMO crops will both pollinate and germinate. The requirement to buy new seed is legally enforced, rather than a biological necessity.

There have been cases already where pollen and/or seeds have blown into neighboring fields and hybridized with non-GMO crops. At least one grower has been sued by Monsanto for harvesting and selling Roundup-ready soybeans that were hybridized that way.

In dietary terms, literally nothing is wrong with it. There are economic concerns because the business model is to patent (copyright?) the GMO stuff and force growers to buy seed every year, instead of saving seed from each harvest. There’s also some concern that really successful GMO crops, such as Roundup-ready corn, will dominate planting and become a monocrop which could lead to massive crop loss if a blight or other disease evolves to target that particular strain.

The other things in the picture vary between probably-but-maybe-not-harmless (aspartame), definitely harmless (MSG), to actually helpful (fluoride and Prozac).

Bottom line: the meme, when interpreted correctly, implies that pop songs are generally good but somewhat artificially manipulated.

You mean today? Today is Wednesday.

Oh, sorry. Context is not my strong suit

Dancing baby was way before youtube existed

40” UW, 5120x2160. It’s all the real estate I need.

The scumbag known as Marc Andreessen is a right-wing accelerationist. He and his cronies, including Peter Thiel and Elon Musk, want to destabilize and eventually destroy nation-states so that everyone lives in corporatocratic city-states. These are the people who think late stage capitalism is a step in the right direction.

I don’t have a race in this fight.

I downvoted it because it’s not funny. It’s real, valuable information. It’s not the kind of thing that belongs in c/nottheonion because there’s nothing odd or funny about it.
