Im nearing 40 and never knew about it because:

1. Never had an interest in flying to Europe until recently
2. Age is making me delete memories to store new ones

Gate them in their own space.

Lemmy instances with those same challenges would probably just fold and close up.

Can confirm. I set up a pixelfed instance for my city with the goal of moving people from Insta to this version. After about three months, user accounts went from 1-10 signups a week to a hundred a week.

No way did that many business owners sign up. And yep, all spam.

After a while, my random weekend project in Spring became a full time job. I closed it last month.

Tabbing? I just copy and paste my commands from stack overflow AI garbage now.

The biggest sign of aging for me is when you make a reference to a TV show and the person you share it with goes, "ah that was before my time." Then, you realize it wasn't released a few years ago... But more like a decade or two ago.

The biggest hit was someone who asked me about 9/11 because they weren't alive at the time.

Yep! It's how I learned about that Poop Cruise documentary. Or Tiger King. Or all the trash Isekai.

Things I would never walk into a store and just outright buy them. And if I did, it would be like $10-50 bucks, the price of the subscription.

Im like you. I'm a "give me new things".

it took me a few years to understand. Especially since I have a coworker who shared she plays the Office in the background, nearly every day for a few years.

It's comfort food for them. Why do some people play 1000+ hours of the same mobile games? Why do some people do those thousand piece puzzles?

It's just comfort and consistency.

This was my take.

Developer was late. That itself is a trigger.

If you rush me trying to sneak code in, gloves are off.

Hey pal, maybe you're feeling discouraged like nothing is happening.

In foreign countries with tight censorship laws, posting on social media your activities is how you get caught. Especially on a platform like Lemmy, which is both federated so any Tom, Dick, or Johnny Copman can be watching and tracking.

The news is also limp dick to report it. Because they've always been. Look what happened when they political theater Luigi? They dont want copycats. Did you know there's been more and not even being talked about?

So does it exist? Oh absolutely. You don't bring your phone to a protest for safety. So just because you aren't seeing it on the internet doesn't mean there isn't defiance, protests, and good people stepping up.

If you want to see people doing something, get off the internet and see where it's happening. I guarantee you you'll find what you're looking for.

Just don't be a narc and pull out your phone and get people arrested.

Can JW play Dark Souls?

Hmmm...night reign is three players and they always come in pairs.

I was bike riding when one of them flagged me down to chat. Then, the other one rushed to provide backup. I asked if they could think for themselves, and they looked at each other before responding.

Nice kids. Sadly brainwashed.

"Mr Trump, Epstein stole your underaged spa worker? YOUR underaged spa worker? Now why would he do that? Please provide details."

Instead of directly addressing the drivers’ frustrations Indonesian politicians have instead attacked the choice of flag, with Gerindra Party executive and deputy house speaker Sufmi Dasco Ahmad calling it a “systematic movement” aimed at undermining national unity.

If the solution is to ban the flag instead of make moves to solving the problem, then youre the bad guy.

Pokemon Red/Blue hitting with the facts.

Youre doing a thankless job. So I wanted to thank you.

Appreciate the work you do in shaping this to be like an alternative to people Twitter, but for bluesky, and keeping the riff raff out.

Texas GOP fleeing during a Weather emergency: (silence)

Texas Democrats fleeing to stop gerrymandering: Send in the goons

They're still cool! They have lots of cool things they've released over the past few years! Like... Um...

Uh...

Well shit.

Cobb’s arrest follows the arrest of another viral TikTok prankster, Charles Smith, who was charged after allegedly spraying pesticides on produce in an Arizona Walmart

Their little brains cannot comprehend what they're doing isn't a prank, but a crime. Enjoy prison.

I'm so happy you are one of today's lucky 10,000.

I actually wonder how this affected Arby's because every Simpsons fan I know quotes this.

And the one time I went to Arby's, it was real disgusting.
