Nice! This was my first one - definitely had me scouring the entire image once I started noticing the weirdness.

- Comment on Mastercard and Visa face backlash after hundreds of adult games removed from online stores Steam and Itch.io 2 weeks ago:
That’s their goal for sure, what I mean is how are they pretending to justify it?
There’s usually some on-paper benevolent veneer to wrap their hateful bullshit up with.
For example, they hate trans people, but they don’t campaign on that out loud - they justify that hated under the guise of shit like protecting bathrooms.
But this is fucking Steam - access to that bathroom is already under lock and key behind an armed guard. They can’t just pull the “think of the children!” card when the children already have a myriad of protections.
…or maybe they can, considering what just happened. We live in stupid times.
- Comment on Mastercard and Visa face backlash after hundreds of adult games removed from online stores Steam and Itch.io 2 weeks ago:
What’s even the argument here? Steam already has parental control options, age gates, and content filters… if you don’t want your kids seeing that shit on steam, then, like, don’t let em?
…meanwhile, let’s just continue shoving blatant gambling down minors’ throats in the form of lootboxes.

- Comment on THIS happens way too often 2 weeks ago:
Get in the habit of composing your emails in a specific order. My preference is:
Write the title, upload attachments, write the body, choose the recipient(s).
Doing the recipients last in particular gives you that extra few seconds to consider all the other elements so you can realize and correct any mistakes before hitting send. I used to do shit like send w/o attachments or send to the wrong/not all of the intended recipients all the time, but following the same order has basically idiot-proofed it against myself.
10/10, do recommend.
- Comment on Blocking communities doesn't work at all 2 weeks ago:
Community tags would enable that. Vice versa, it’d make those kinds of groupings easy to find and subscribe to for those interested.
- Comment on Blocking communities doesn't work at all 2 weeks ago:
If you’re not able to try different apps, browsers, or filters, you do appear to be fucked.
- Comment on Blocking communities doesn't work at all 2 weeks ago:
Internet speed shouldn’t make that big a difference in a site like Lemmy. If you’re on mobile, consider trying an app (or a different app if you’re already using one). If PC, maybe a different browser? I use Firefox, at about 50 mbps according to www.speedtest.net - lemmy loads up nearly instantly.
Another option is to use filters instead of blocks. I don’t know of a way to do it on PC, but many mobile apps support filters. You’ll have to find the right balance of being broad enough to zap all the redundant communities, but specific enough to not zap the unrelated ones that you might be interested in seeing. IMO that’s more effort than just blocking, but if internet speed is a barrier, that would make for a good plan B.
- Comment on Blocking communities doesn't work at all 2 weeks ago:
Keep at it, if curating All is what you want. That’s how I use this site too, and so far I’ve blocked over 900 communities - it has made All SO MUCH better.
You’ll burn through the redundant communities.
Just don’t try to do it all in one go - hit a few on each scroll and it’ll add up without being a very noticeable effort.
- Comment on Experimental surgery performed by AI-driven surgical robot 2 weeks ago:
We’ve seen this coming ever since machine leaning has been on the public’s radar. The current davinci robot are always wired directly to Intuitive, ostensibly so that their support team can help resolve faults mid-surgery asap.
Every input the surgeon makes is recorded. Intuitive has millions of surgeries of training data.
I’d absolutely hate to put the decision making of my own surgery in the hands of the bullshit generators we call ‘AI’, but I could say the same about some of the surgeons I’ve worked with too… If I really had to choose which one I distrust the least, I’d probably just ask my anesthesiologist to load me up with ‘i don’t give a fuck’ drugs and choose whichever option is cheaper.

Boldly making obvious lies is kinda Russia’s style.
- Comment on We've all done it and it never ends well 3 weeks ago:
If it’s an organization-wide email group address that you’ve been added to, instead of reply-all, you can be extra chaotic by adding that group address as a BCC.
Then just say something stupid like “could you please remove me from this group” so it doesn’t look like you know what you’re doing.
It’ll spam the entire group, AND break any filters people have set up to delete/move/mark traffic hitting their inbox from that conversation.

Don’t put any object in your ass that isn’t designed specifically to be in there.
If you’re into that, just go to your local adult shop and buy a dildo with a wide base so it doesn’t get spaghetti-noodled right past the sphincter.

Placentas always look like a fake rubber model of a placenta. I’ve done hundreds of c sections, and there’s always something uncanny about seeing those things just hanging out in their bucket on my backtable.
