Might have the big dumb
Youtube is not all bad. The algorithm is, but the vast amount of content on it means that theres some genuinely helpful stuff. Videos about repair and fixing, educational videos on any subject in the world, videos about acceptance and self love
There’s no hope for facebook though, except the not so facebook marketplace (im gonna need a resurgence in like craigslist for that)
Shoes are pretty easy to guesstimate for US sizes if you have average feet (width being the biggest reason this fails). Men size is basically women size plus 1.5. This doesn’t work if you have a large foot size though, since women’s dont go up to the same max as men’s
Clothes are 100% a pain. Especially online shopping
I just watched a video about a what if situation of this exact same spongebob scene last night lol
The only crypto that makes kinda sense is the idea of a stablecoin (essentially a layer around a stable currency/reserve), but so far there’s not really a good implementation of one.
All the big crypto coins are just more volatile stocks with shittier tax implications (assuming you don’t try to skirt the law with it)
Cannot relate my work place is completely shut off and I feel like a cave gremlin
Relatable
I’m no longer in the same mental state as I was a couple years back (used to cut) but life is not that good right now still. Maybe it’s because most of my friends are back home while I’m out of state for work. Could also be the absolute cinema happening all around. I kinda just fill time up with work and gym, then turn my brain off during the weekends.
I don’t really have advice cause idk what I’m doing either, but hopefully I offered some solace. Best of luck
I will say all the filipino memes I see are all using tagalog with the latin alphabet. Never seen this alphabet before.
Carlos also cancelled a more immediate $7 billion business plan with Starlink, which makes it closer to 30 billion lost.
Well hopefully with the impending economic downturn the US will get their shit together… Right?
I’m decently sure profanity became known as such because of either religious reasons or class division (along the lines of peasants vs nobles from early/medieval europe) and it just became commonplace.
I would say profanity nowadays though is a lot less taboo. It’s been normalized in culture (hip hop, city culture, punk subculture) and a lot of people are less religious nowadays.
Does anyone else’s search on lemmy actually work as expected? I feel like it never finds anything really relevant. I can search for audio interfaces for example and all the first results are about software in general and not actually the hardware component.
Bad press would work if there were consequences like forcing the CEO to step down
Unfortunately in today’s world corporations and their ceos can get away with almost everything
Feels like it’s been that way since the election to be honest
Lemmy has always been a political outlet, but post election has been out of hands.
I was going to say it couldn’t have been a decade but then I realized the last time I used Skype was about 2015 2016…
demoknight and direct hit soldier are like some of the most fun loadouts though
Even trolldier is fun (granted I suck at it)
That sounds more like free advertisement for Signal
“Our product is banned on twitter!”
Maybe try bamboo? Cheap material if you want to diy it, and its already pretty wind chime shaped
Public utilities are cheaper than private ones. And it’s not like there aren’t city programs for low income. Cali is far from being the most progressive (in comparison to the rest of the world) and they have plenty of assistance programs for all possible utilities.
They censored certain phrases and words, which they plan on no longer enforcing. I agree that they leave hate speech on the platform (reports rarely do anything) but the looser restrictions mean people can post even more hateful content and that paves the way for discrimatory ideologies
30% seems pretty generous. Nevermind the complete collapse of trade and alliances we built over the past century, won’t countries stop using the us dollar as the backing reserve? Which will likely set america on an even further downward trend, especially since the dollar isn’t on the gold standard anymore?
