I used VGA up until maybe 2012, 2013. Even longer at my job.
- Comment on We don't use the word 'fascist' because we wish harm on anybody. We use it because words mean things. 3 days ago:
I am German. We don’t call it that. Nobody says Nazipartei, it’s NSDAP. Nazi Party is an English expression and has nothing to do with the etymology of the word Nazi.
Nazi is short for Nationalsozialist. de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi (the english version of this article points to the ideology of nazism, the original is about the term. Use a translator if you’re interested.)
It was coined in the 1920s and it’s not an American term. You call the party Nazi Party because it was the party of the nazis, not the other way around.

Nazi is short for Nationalsozialist though. The party wasn’t called Nazi, the members were.

Nothingness void is just another phrase for "irreversible loss of consciousness. Which is orders of magnitudes more believable than afterlife.

You can recycle it though and it’s economically viable.
- Comment on This Plastic Mr. Fantastic 1 week ago:
PET for example is also feasable to recycle. Problem with plastic recycling is mostly that plastic waste is not just one type of plastic.

Not preordering is about waiting for reviews and bugfixes, isn’t it? If you’re gonna play on day one regardless, of course pre-order makes sense.
- Comment on Spotifies come and Spotifies go, but that folder of badly-sorted MP3s will still be there in the 2050s. 1 month ago:
I have a few thousand mp3s and they are all neatly organised with tags and sorted in folders by artist and album. Whenever I add something i make sure it follows my naming scheme and has all the tags. Has been like that since I got my first few albums when I was like 10.
Maybe I’m on the autism spectrum.

Death sentence is barbaric and stupid though

That’s exactly my experience, minus the creepy aunt and the kink community. My girlfriend is the exact same and I still don’t know how we managed a first kiss. I wouldn’t miss it for the world now, though.

This already exists, look up “Collabora”. It integrates very nicely with Nextcloud.

The dumbass launcher switch is programmable and the battery is close to 5000mAh?
- Comment on Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp 3 months ago:
Signal is based in America but it’s a non profit organization, not a company. Important difference

Technically, human mating seasons kind of exist but its a monthly pattern, not a yearly one. I guess.

If you have a male sounding voice and you are open and friendly and communicate well, gaming voice chats can be a good experience, depending on the game. Mostly they aren’t, though.
- Comment on Kid gave a reasonable answer without all the math bullshit 4 months ago:
The question asks “How is this possible?”
What they mean to ask is “is this statement true if both pizzas are the same size?”. To test whether the kids can compare fractures. It’s wrongly worded and the reaction is bad. If any of it is real. - Comment on I can't hear them 4 months ago:

Butt stuff can be nice and you need a flared base. - Comment on This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast! 4 months ago:

How else could you somehow talk about heat pumps in a completely unrelated video if it wasn’t a little too long winded?

No clothes at all is fine but wearing only a shirt or bra is highly illegal. It just feels wrong.

So it’s true, Lemmy does have something of a misogyny problem. Who would have thought?
- Comment on Religions have some of the wackiest rules 5 months ago:
Even with phimosis, circumcision is not needed in most cases. You can make the foreskin bigger and more flexible with stretching over time. Still, people with phimosis get circumcised without ever even hearing of an alternative option. Shit sucks

If you have 1-2 seconds of audio delay with bluetooth, something is wrong. SBC bluetooth audio has like 200ms max.
Which is noticable if you make an effort, but for non-interactive media, it’s negligible imo.
- Comment on Clean butt 5 months ago:
By butthole is nowhere near my taste buds and designed to pump out fecal matter. Other than my lips. Bidets are cool but I if there isn’t one that’s not a problem.

Different enough that I’m fine with thoroughly wiping my ass. That’s hardly “having shit smeared all around”. I’m regularly under the shower and that’s good enough for me.
