- Comment on descriptions of Demons and the arcane rituals required to banish them feverishly relayed by occultists in ghost/horror stories are a direct homomorphism to computers and actually how awful they are 1 month ago:
Do you suppose folks on the moon will shift the clocks by an hour twice a year as well? I don’t like the idea of moon kids having to walk to school in the dark during the winter.
But for real tho, maybe there are some tiny time dilation effects that require a separate time system for lunar missions. But I’m not sure, I’m not a physicist.

Hey at least I know it gets the job done

I appreciate this thread’s nuanced discussion of how file deletion works from a technical standpoint depending on storage medium. But as a user, when I delete something, it should go away forever. I don’t care how.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Nah, just poor choice of phrasing on my part. Clarified in edit above.

Sorry for the vagueness. Pannenkoek is like the authority on weird Mario 64 quirks, and makes excellent videos. As soon as you see that name, there’s no need to keep reading – just go watch the video.
Like, this article could have been one sentence: “New Pannenkoek vid just dropped: [link]”
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I read until it mentioned pannenkoek and immediately clicked away after that.
- Comment on Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time? 1 month ago:
Gboard swiping is okay, but I agree, there are still some annoyances. Random mid-sentence capitalization is a big one for me.
And no matter how hard I try, no matter what the settings are, no matter how slowly and deliberately I motion, it will absolutely never output the word “fuck” when swiping. It will say “fucking”, it will even say “fuckin”, but it will never say “fuck”.
Gucci. Duck. Tick. Duck. Rick. Dick. Gigi. FICO. Guck.
This was barely funny back in 2009, now it’s just embarrassing. WTF even is “guck”.

what troubles me is that you can build this and it will answer your questions, but no one can really explain how it works

- Comment on In Disney's Coco everyone cared about evidence showing their favorite celebrity stole music, which is probably the most unrealistic part of it. 5 months ago:
Don’t forget the less violent folks who find a way to “separate the art from the artist” and continue keeping memories of the villain alive through his music regardless of how much of a villain he was.

but OP had the original idea (I’m assuming), and the courage to post it instead of hide it in comments, and cute anime character

- Comment on What is an average person living in the US supposed to do about corporations raising prices? 5 months ago:
Not buying things is probably the most accessible course of action. I haven’t bought a carton of eggs in probably over a year now. Yes, I heard prices went back down. But you know what? Fuck 'em. Companies can’t just price-gouge and then pretend everything’s cool.

- Comment on Largest Study of its Kind Shows Outdated Password Practices are Widespread 6 months ago:
I copied the list straight from the article, so excuse the awkward phrasing. But yes, the implication is that you could totally use “password1” on some websites.

Now that’s a pee four dollar sign dollar sign omega zero are dee right there
- Comment on Largest Study of its Kind Shows Outdated Password Practices are Widespread 7 months ago:
The article focuses on password requirements that websites implement, not user behaviors. Common bad practices mentioned:
- Permit very short passwords
- Do not block common passwords
- Use outdated requirements like complex characters

- Comment on Does anyone feel like an actual adult? 7 months ago:
There are tasks and chores my parents used to do on my behalf that I now do myself, like making money, paying taxes, handling health insurance, etc. I guess those make me feel like an adult.
But then there are milestones I thought I would have hit by now that I have not, mainly concerning family life. No kids, no partner, nobody to take care of but myself. If I wanna go out and party, or stay in and play video games all weekend, there’s not really much to stop me. That makes me feel immature.
- Comment on [deleted] 7 months ago:
This is kind of sad. I’ve been using the site a fair amount recently to help get through some depressive episodes and the social withdrawal/isolation that come with them. Granted, about 50% of conversations were bots, and 40% were guys just looking for girls to send them nudes, but the other 10% or so was pretty interesting conversations.
I guess this will be the impetus to get back out and socialize IRL again. Or to find a new chat-with-randos service. Or to keep spiraling deeper into depression. We’ll see.

- Comment on WhatsApp seems set on introducing ads, but they won't appear in your inbox 7 months ago:
Oh gosh. Did my critique of ads just become an ad?
- Comment on WhatsApp seems set on introducing ads, but they won't appear in your inbox 7 months ago:
This seems to follow a progression
- No ads
- Non-intrusive ads
- Intrusive ads, but you can pay to make them go away
- Intrusive ads, but you can pay to make them less intrusive
- Intrusive ads and you have to pay just to see the content
- Content becomes ads
- Ads pretend to be content (see Dr. Pepper’s “Fansville”)
- Award categories for ads are featured in major award ceremonies
- Award ceremonies just for ads go mainstream
Actually not sure what’s real vs hypothetical at this point.

- Comment on Bike Riders of lemmy, you okay with me riding my eScooter in the bike lane? 8 months ago:
I wish there were more moderately paced e-scooters using bike lanes. I like to race them lol. Instead they’re usually going against traffic and/or on sidewalks. Please avoid doing those things if you can.
