Fortunately/unfortunately Lemmy isn’t big enough to move the needle on any of these conservative’s radars. Until it proves that it can influence a significant fraction of their demographic they don’t care.

I wouldn’t call what they peddle “toys” unless you can find me any sort of activity people actually use them for besides display.

Oh God I don’t want my YouTube hidden behind multiple paywalls of varying quality. I agree that something should be done about it but it’s frankly a miracle of inertia that YouTube hasn’t been more aggressively monetized.
And yes, before anyone comments with “have you seen YTs monetization!!!”, I do in fact mean even more than the shit show it currently is.

Damn that sucks. It’s so arbitrary.

It’s a small enough industry with expensive enough parts. There’s probably exactly one and a half companies that make cases for uses like this that provide the furnishings for every natural History museum.

How do they keep track of you if you’re alone in the office? I’m just curious.

- Comment on The 1900s 3 months ago:
Sure they do. I’m sure the century cutoff helps too.
If someone one would refer to the 1920s as “the early 1900s” cause it’s over 100 years ago it follows logically to call other parts of the 1900s the mid and late period.
- Comment on The 1900s 3 months ago:
Cause as you get older, you realize that a lot of the hype about people being “old” is manufactured. I’m closing in on 30 and I’m squarely in a zone I thought was “old” when I was 18. But I feel like I still have my whole life ahead of me. And despite a lot of fear mongering, I still feel healthy and ready for anything.
And although I definitely feel like 45 is pretty old, I know that when my parents were that age they were scoffing and telling me “45 is not that old”. I’m sure when I’m 60 I’ll be looking at retirement and think about how it’s actually not too bad to be 60 and it’s the 80 year olds that are really old.
- Comment on The 1900s 3 months ago:
How so? I would certainly call something from 1894 to be from the "late 1800s’ or late 19th century. I mean, we’re a quarter of the way through this century, at some point it turns into history.

- Comment on What? 3 months ago:
I think the joke is kind of like the talking muffin joke. One bird sees a leaf changing color and apparently has a pattern recognizing brain enough to identify that summer is ending and remembering from last year that that means they’ll have to fly south.
The other bird is a bird and it’s a miracle he recognized that the leaf changed color from day to day. He probably doesn’t even remember what migration is, it’s all instinct.

Alternative : save your grease in a jar and heat it up and pour it down the sink the moment your slumlord increases your rent and prices you out of the building.
- Comment on Very thankful 4 months ago:
Unfortunately because of the stigma and the defacto ostracization from certain aspects of society, not the least of which is financial, people in these industries are usually really callous when it comes to extracting money out of the clients. Not to mention the fact that most of society doesn’t need porn or doesn’t need it enough to consider paying for it.
I suppose it’s tit-for-tat. The client objectifies them as a sex object, they objectify the client as a cash cow. But now I’m just describing most capitalist exchanges.

- Comment on Peloton announces $95 “used equipment activation fee” 5 months ago:
Peloton is designed for rich people. They don’t say it explicitly because thar ruins the illusion, but the bike is meant to be a status distinction. You may only own it if you’re eager to be seen as someone who spends too much money on an exercise bike.
