The term you were looking for was “more wary”.

“Weary” means you are tired.
“Wary” means something seems suspicious.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US man stages $1 bank robbery to get state healthcare (2011)⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:
It depends on the state, but where I live you can apply for free health insurance if you are unemployed or making minimum wage (free groceries too). That said, Trump is doing his best to put an end to state welfare programs.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Outer Worlds 2 - Official Story Trailer | Xbox Games Showcase 2025⁩ ⁨⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:
That was my issue with the game too. The concept was good, but the game seemed rushed. You can literally see blank spaces in the map that were obviously supposed to have stuff there (like an extra companion quarters on your ship that was clearly walled off and deleted, for example). The sequel has potential to be great if they take their time on it.

I played them both and was disappointed by both. Didn’t even bother finishing either of them.

Depression is a bitch. :(
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Dying Light 2 worth it?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:
Agreed. The ray tracing effects are pretty but that’s about all the game has going for it.

If you want a good zombie game sequel, play Dead Island 2 instead. It’s slightly shorter than the average game but it’s much better than the original.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨iFixit says the Switch 2 is even harder to repair than the original⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:
I hope you’re right. Nintendo has turned into a bunch of cocky assholes and they need to be taught a hard lesson. I hope the Switch 2 flops so hard, costing them so much that they don’t have any spare money left to continue suing the Palworld devs. They need to be put in their place.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
I was there! Started on Digg after Kevin Rose mentioned it on The Screensavers (TechTV), joined reddit shorty after.

2006-2009 was peak reddit. Then after digg’s suicide, it was the beginning of the end.

And now he’s is trying to bring it back. I wish him the best of luck. Don’t fuck it up this time, Kevin.

We’re in Lemmy.world but I’m sure they got the message.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
And at least the average Lemmy user isn’t a complete fucking idiot.

I remember the early days of reddit, when we would make fun of the kids over at /r/SummerReddit every June. But then those kids grew up, took over the website, and now /r/SummerReddit is all of reddit.

Oh I had no idea. But it makes sense, cause I never see any Russian troll shit on here.

Context?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is lemm.we actually shutting down?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
I ended up moving to !radiolemmy@lemmy.blahaj.zone

See you there!
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is lemm.we actually shutting down?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
I want radiolemmy@lemmy.radio but that instance is more for terrestrial amateur radio so I don’t think my application will be approved. I’ll probably just pick a major instance to minimize the chances that this happens again.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is lemm.we actually shutting down?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
Sorry guys; my bad. It’s all my fault.

Jokes aside, it is going to be an internet radio station run by Lemmy users. We will have live DJs, scheduled programming blocks, and all music will be picked by the community.

This actually a relaunch. I originally launched the station back in 2023 but it barely lasted two months because I couldn’t get enough content nor enough DJs to fill the schedule.

This time around I’m not launching the station until I have enough content to actually function like a proper radio station. I’m shooting for Q3 2025 because I feel like that is a wide enough window to get enough volunteers before we hit the airwaves. It all depends on you.

So if you want to contribute a block of programming, or even just give me a list of your favorite tunes, please read this first, and then PM we what you’ve got.

Also if you want to be a live DJ, please fill out this 4 question application.

Thank you and see you on the airwaves soon!

Dammit, I literally just relaunched !radiolemmy@lemm.ee this week. What unfortunate timing.

To any of my subscribers reading this: I’m currently in the process of finding a new instance. I’ll edit this comment when I establish a new home for Radio Lemmy. Stay tuned…

They only work for me if I take a much larger dose than what the label suggests, but I fear for my liver.

Your attack missed!

You can pull the Enron card when talking about investments in general; your comments do 0 damage.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta shareholders overwhelmingly rejected a proposal to explore adding Bitcoin to the company's treasury, with less than 1% voting in favor of the measure⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
That was so funny I forgot to laugh.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta shareholders overwhelmingly rejected a proposal to explore adding Bitcoin to the company's treasury, with less than 1% voting in favor of the measure⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
Seriously, I do not have faith in USD anymore. What’s left of my paycheck after bills all goes to BTC, and I sell what I need on demand to cover day to day costs. Been doing this since 2019 and it has paid off handsomely.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta shareholders overwhelmingly rejected a proposal to explore adding Bitcoin to the company's treasury, with less than 1% voting in favor of the measure⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
My portfolio disagrees.

Y’all should have bought BTC when the price was hovering around $19K about 3 years ago. I told you the price was going to go up, but no one listened. Now it’s at $105K, I’m $60k richer, and y’all are still whining and complaining that it’s a “scam”.

Hate to break it to you, but bitcoin isn’t to crash and burn anytime soon. It’s still early; buy in now or regret it for the rest of your life.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How does AI-based search engines know legit sources from BS ones ?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
That’s why I like Perplexity; I can just check the sources it used for accuracy. Unfortunately they have a garbage privacy policy; but I use a private DNS with good tracking filters so I’m only mildly concerned.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Here's for 2 years since I joined Lemmy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
That’s why I’m here! :D

The developer of my favorite reddit app (dBrady, Relay for Reddit) decided to play along with Spez’s game and start charging for usage.

So I fucked off, and after testing every Lemmy app I could find, I settled on Voyager. It’s not optimized for foldables like Relay—and it’s swipe gestures aren’t as intuitive—but it’s close and still better than paying to use reddit.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK to ban sale of disposable vapes in response to soaring waste and safety risks⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
I hate that the disposables are so much better than the old method too. You get the perfect hit every time. This is true for both nicotine and weed vapes. They need to be banned. They’re too good for how wasteful they are.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cyberpunk 2 is now in preproduction, CD Projekt says⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Seriously. I’ve lost all faith in this company.

They fixed the performance issues, but at the end of the day, the game is still boring as fuck. IDK how they did it, cause the CyberPunk aesthetic is right up my alley.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cyberpunk 2 is now in preproduction, CD Projekt says⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Good god, just let it die already. Pass the reins on to someone who can actually make a decent CyberPunk game. I do not trust CDPR to make entertaining games anymore.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google Shared My Phone Number!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
I was really getting into that article, and then it just just suddenly ends. How anticlimactic. I was hoping the article writer was a bit more dedicated towards finding out why Google posted his personal number in the first place…
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨BlackRock is Suing UnitedHealth for Giving “Too Much Care” to Patients After the CEO was Murdered⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
How was Tabula Rasa, anyway? Never played it but my friend was into it for awhile.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨they come⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
We have them here. I don’t mind them cause they just hang out in trees all day and don’t bother me.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨they come⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Wow I’m glad that it’s dry as fuck where I am. Giant insects slamming into your doors sounds horrifying.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Digg founder Kevin Rose offers to buy Pocket from Mozilla⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Kevin Rose is in charge again? I thought he sold Digg after the massive failure that was v4 back in 2010.

Either way, I’m glad to see that digg is coming back. Reddit needs more competition. I’m hopeful that they will succeed this time around and steal back the user base that migrated to reddit and helped make them become the evil giant they are today (I am one such migrant).
