Yeah, I work for your biggest social media comoetitor, why would I not just go post slop all over your platform with the intent of getting you fined?

I dunno, someone just throws this up on social media, and you’re the person in the position to say hey, halt the trains, don’t you do just that out of an abundance of caution?

I typed a response and deleted it because Jerboa isn’t great about showing what I’m responding to. But yeah, you said no it isn’t and I totally agree with you. And I am firmly on board of chastising people who speak with authority when they’re plainly wrong, such as the person to whom you were responding.

So yeah, I think that’s the joke is bad when that is the joke. I think it’s even worse when it’s not the joke and you’re wrong.

I sure do love Lemmy, though. Brings me back to my early forum days when conversation was pointless, like this one!

I must be going crazy because it’s definitely not the joke. This joke is so geared toward the IT crowd. I could walk up and down my block and guarantee I’m the only person who knows how to use TOR, and maybe even the only one who’s heard of it.

Welcome to Lemmy, baby!!!

I upvote things I like. I downvote things by accident, because my back gesture is similar to Lemmy’s downvote gesture.

I obviously also downvote people who are being annoying.

Weed.

Heh, this list used to include beer, beer, beer, beer, beer, beer, beer, beer, wine, wine, wine. So it ain’t perfect but it’s a better alternative.

Except too much water causes nausea and headaches!

One (double) cup of coffee with some stevia, black. Fiber. Water. Water. Water. Water. Water. Fiber. Water. Water. Kratom. Half of a Zero Sugar Peach Snapple. Water. Milk. Fin. Literally every day.

My four year old son cannot game get, but he’ll ask to put that on and he just honks at people. He also likes to be the hat in that Mario game with the hat, can’t remember the name. I Mario, he hats.

I’ve been turning off smoothing for at least 15, years at this point. Not every terrible tech is AI.

When there’s a label for everything, people tend to fit themselves to the label.

Appreciate that, thank you.

I don’t know what those things are!

I’m a soldat!

I have only ever built my own PCs. My i9, 4020 is sitting in my detached garage right now. And because I’m too lazy to brave the elements to walk out there in the evenings, I game far less than I used to. So I’m thinking about grabbing a steambox to hook up to the basement TV, because it’ll be simple. I will plug it in and it will (ostensibly) just work. No farting around.

That’s how I thought “quay” was pronounced. Stupid me!

Crazy, but it’s almost like parenting can make the environment safer!

Lemmy likes to portray Roblox the same way the 10pm news portrayed the Internet when I was in my preteens and teen years, like it was the wild west, everyone was a predator, etc. I let my kids hop on. Their friends include me, their mom (who has an account for some reason), each other, and the kids who live across the street. They like to play the platformers, and they invite me sometimes and we play them.

They’ll get older and they’ll go explore the internet the same way I did. I spent my adolescence and teen years eventually in AIM chat rooms, then forums, and thn Skyping random people, and somehow didn’t become a terrorist, didn’t get predated. I also am of the school of thought that you need to learn things on your own, rather than have no exposure to things that could potentially be bad.

They said “people,” not left handed.
