You’re right, racism doesn’t exist outside of America
- Comment on Mmm yesss 7 months ago:
“pooh”, uncapitalized, as the title is if you read it, can also mean excrement informally.
- Comment on Mmm yesss 7 months ago:
It’s alliteration. If you continued reading, you can see that they have a much more professional title right underneath
- Comment on *So far* 7 months ago:
Why are they dumb?
- Comment on A Nearby Star Is Expected to Go Nova This Year. Here's How You Can See It. 8 months ago:
Did you read the article? Or do you just like talking?
- Comment on Is my voice annoyingly high? 8 months ago:
Everyone perceives their voice as lower than others do because you’re hearing your voice travel through your skeleton to reach your ear rather than traveling through air. You’re not crazy and your voice is not annoying.
- Comment on Vim is the original escape room 8 months ago:
I’ve been using Linux as a desktop for over a decade and have never heard of ed before. I’m assuming that its general lack of popularity is why no one talks about it
- Comment on Goodbye matpat ❤️ 8 months ago:
The word “theory” has definitions outside of the context of the scientific process, and it’s pretty obvious that MatPat was not doing anything scientific in his videos. I don’t understand the concern here
- Comment on Please Stop 8 months ago:
Distributed databases have existed for decades. It’s how large healthcare systems maintain electronic health records for their patients across dozens of hospitals in real time.
- Comment on The White House wants to 'cryptographically verify' videos of Joe Biden so viewers don't mistake them for AI deepfakes 9 months ago:
A big issue is that places don’t want to share a link to an independently verifiable video, they want you to load a copy of it from their website/app.
Exactly. This “solution” doesn’t take into account how people actually use the Internet. Unless we expect billions of people to change their behavior, this is just a pointless comment.

What problem would that solve?
- Comment on ‘Enshittification’ is coming for absolutely everything 9 months ago:
How has healthcare software like MyChart been enshittified? It’s probably the tech I care the most about and the tech no one seems to talk about.
- Comment on Who makes money when AI reads the internet for us? 9 months ago:
Will we also have to go to a time where we’ll have to buy physical newspapers so that journalists can make a living? Or do we expect them to also share information just for the sake of sharing information?
- Comment on Ticketek ‘glitch’ appears to re-sell fan’s $659 ticket for Taylor Swift concert — “They said, ‘someone else has it, we don’t know who, we can’t check or track who has your ticket’” 9 months ago:
I think the “full” here is the one who can’t fathom that others value things differently from themself.
Also, her money*. It’s in the summary
- Comment on I love my Gitea. Any tips and tricks? 9 months ago:
Is there a federated git out there yet?
- Comment on For those who lurk on Reddit - my read-only, ad-free, open source Reddit viewer RDX is better than ever now 10 months ago:
Reddit also has enough large communities that I don’t need to participate in the communities I don’t like. With lemmy, it’s either small communities or the constant braindead takes.
- Comment on For those who lurk on Reddit - my read-only, ad-free, open source Reddit viewer RDX is better than ever now 10 months ago:
Good discussion! Glad I’m on this forum!
- Comment on For those who lurk on Reddit - my read-only, ad-free, open source Reddit viewer RDX is better than ever now 10 months ago:
If Reddit had a good UI I would return in a heartbeat. I’m sick of small, practically inactive communities for hobbies and these shallow, poorly developed calls for the end of capitalism being shoved down my throat.
- Comment on Microsoft is adding a new key to PC keyboards for the first time since 1994 10 months ago:
Don’t get a clicky mechanical keyboard then
- Comment on Has google stopped working for finding anything? 10 months ago:
I refuse to believe you haven’t been able to find a Hollywood movie after an hour? That sounds more like an issue with you than Google
- Comment on It's Time to Ditch Evernote for One of These Alternatives 10 months ago:
Trillium lets you run arbitrary JavaScript, plugging into their APIs. It lets you do some cool stuff that you otherwise couldn’t with OneNote. If you do need something more powerful than OneNote, and admittedly most people don’t, I’d recommend downloading trillium and checking out the sample JS code that the developer wrote.
- Comment on Spotify (un)wrapped: Unpacking recommender algorithms 10 months ago:
Why?
- Comment on Larry Bird really knew how to get under your skin 10 months ago:
Link not working
- Comment on I'm Starting A Search Engine For The Fediverse 11 months ago:
You should federate the search engine so that folks can defed from the search as desired.
But then we would need a search engine for all the search engines…
- Comment on it always interesting when multi billion dollar company's costing system is a 63 tab excel 97 spreadsheet at it's core... 11 months ago:
The software my company makes still uses VB5 for the front end 🙃
- Comment on My children will refer to me as father. 11 months ago:
“ohh tati”
Yeah I can make this work
- Comment on Notepad on Windows 11 is finally getting a character count 11 months ago:
No, they’re really not. When was the last time you looked up the stats for household OSs being used?
- Comment on Why scientists are making transparent wood / The results are amazing, that a piece of wood can be as strong as glass 11 months ago:
It might be a better insulator than glass
- Comment on HP exec says quiet part out loud when it comes to locking in print customers 11 months ago:
When individuals boycott companies due to their ties with Israel, it only intensifies my inclination to support those companies.
Why?
- Comment on Inside the 'arms race' between YouTube and ad blockers / Against all odds, open source hackers keep outfoxing one of the wealthiest companies. 11 months ago:
Are we really not okay with using YouTube but are okay with using Twitch?
And don’t deny that using Peertube amounts to using YouTube
