Food service and retail needs to exist, (commercial sales) call centers should be banned and their owners shunned from polite society.

I wish I could give this comment more than a simple upvote. I want to mail you a freshly baked cinnamon bun.

As they say, horniness is the stepmother of invention.

Fair point, but I would argue that if you had that kind of experience on twitter, you’re weren’t really the target demographic.

Desperate and out of touch, yes, but deliberately fucking up a platform and ruining his “Iron Man” persona? He’s too stupid and too invested in what people think of him.

There’s a version of this conspiracy I could buy though: the Saudis gave him money and stroked his ego knowing that there was no way he wouldn’t fuck the whole thing up. Everyone except him knew how this was going to end. That conspiracy I could get behind.

I don’t buy this conspiracy theory at all, 1) twitter is disinformation heaven, which is very useful to authoritarian regimes and 2) Musky would never intentionally do anything to harm his public image, he’s a textbook narcissist after all.

“I hate that site, I hope someone Musks it up soon”

You mean embedding posts or something else? https://fedi.tips/how-to-embed-mastodon-posts-on-a-website/

Well, perhaps that process would be more difficult and resource-intensive in this hypothetical scenario, so it would be much easier and less hassle to just keep the bodies alive?

This one is easy. As we know from words like “photon” and “triumph”, “pH” is actually pronounced “f”.

So you simply already need to know what you’re asking it, gotcha. Seems easy enough.

I had a coworker in the early 00s that would repeatedly fail to search for something because she would type “www.goggles.com” into the address bar.

I’m starting to feel like a shill because I say this so often, but Kagi is the only one I’ve found that actually does the job anymore. To me a search engine that works is worth the small cost each month, but unfortunately I don’t see paying for search becoming mainstream anytime soon.

And here is the link for anyone who didn’t read it.

How about punk rock is the only thing that is punk rock, starting now?

Wearing band logos are very different to wearing brand logos. A band logo stands for something that you love, a brand is just capitalist nihilism; completely meaningless except signaling how much your garment costs and perhaps that you are stupid enough to believe that buying a certain brand says something about you or aligns you with something. Branding is for cattle.

Her blown up remains you mean?

I use it to make my phone less appealing and thus waste less time on it.

Yes, that’s what I use mine for as well. I have the apps I need to access daily as shortcuts and all other apps stuffed away from sight.

Thanks, I’ll check Blank out as well.

I used to work with an Apple fanboy that knew next to nothing about how computers actually work, but he knew that Apple was the best at everything. Any time someone brought up something about a device or service from any other company or with any other OS, his stock answer was always “switch to Apple”. Any time someone pointed out that their device offered a feature or functionality they appreciated that Apple did not offer in a convenient way, his stock answer was always “You don’t need that.” Sometimes he’d add “why would you want to do that? Do X instead”.

Fast forward to today, I ended up killing him and am writing this from jail.

Mine looks very similar, but I use Before Launcher. Which launcher is that?

As far as I understand, the sole reason is “everyone else is using it”. Which also seems to be the justification for using Messenger, WhatsApp, X, Instagram et al despite knowing better. It’s hard to be outside of the walled garden if everybody else is inside.
