I too would like this feature but I don’t want to block those user’s comments on other communities.

Does this setting only block the instance’s posts from showing on All, or does it block everything from that instance, similar to defederating?

JFC nuclear weapons are horrifying

Dr. Zoidberg also has mail order degrees in murderology and murderonomy

I think I read once that was due to outdated standards related to low resolution television sets. If too much text was on screen at once you couldn’t make it out on a standard definition TV. They kept doing it that way for a while after HD became ubiquitous just because that’s how they always did it.

I share your frustration though

They rage in favor of the machine Rage Against the Machine rages against

For YouTube content I really like the Tubular app on Android. It has Sponsorblock built-in, which you mentioned, but it also has an option to skip silence.

I find it particularly nice for gaming content, or any point where the YouTuber is reading text aloud.

I must have skipped hundreds of hours of pointless silence by this point

I saw a comic about this once (xkcd, probably?) and going by the scene in the movie, where Legolas has human sized eyes, they deduced that Middle Earth must have an exotic atmosphere

Lmao one of my friends had just gotten a DVD player in his room around when that movie came out. His mom walked in the room when he was watching it, right at that scene, late on a school night. He scrambled to turn off the TV, but that made her think it was porn… Barbie doll/action figure porn.

She just slowly backed out of the room and wouldn’t let him explain

Does it not make tons of noise?

We have an ice machine in the freezer and often it is the loudest thing in the entire house. I also have a mini fridge in the office and the compressor on it runs every few minutes. It would be awful to try to sleep in there

The title for the sequel could be some kind of pun on how the film is faster and/or more furious than what would be reasonable under normal circumstances

I did something like that once. I noticed my sister’s wireless keyboard was still paired to her laptop, so every once in a while I’d hit the CAPS LOCK key.

I was suppressing laughter for about an hour until her temper boiled over and I had to come clean, as she was about to smash the laptop to bits!

Haha that reminds me of the time I helped my upstairs neighbors move. They were super annoying, always shouting over each other and leaving trash bags in the hot sun on their balcony, where the stink could waft into my open window.

I was very excited when I saw them packing their furniture, so I offed to help and we managed to finish it all in only one day. They didn’t catch on and just thought I was being nice! They even tried to pay me but I refused - being rid of them was payment enough

I had one of those too, until it was stolen.

Back in my day your entire music collection could be stolen in an instant.

…up hill, both ways!

Lmao so he’s just swimming back across the river with the goat!

Someone should try animating these solutions. I’m picturing close-ups of the goat wondering why the man has lost his mind

That little rat a has been by my side so long (Debian + XFCE) 🐀❤️

A mutation that severe might indicate chemical or radioactive contamination. Fry’s home in 1999 was a real dump

I recall using Web Spider on Netscape Navigator circa 1997 or so. Then Yahoo! was the big deal for a few years before Google

“an sequel”? Tell me I haven’t been saying it wrong this whole time 💀
