- Comment on What's the best way to respond to a family member who says the COVID vaccines are being used to depopulate? 6 days ago:
I’ve been waiting for over a year now for my dad to send me his source for “the new information that’s come out about the vaccines” when he asked me if I regretted getting it yet…
- Comment on The small scale of Lemmy's active user base is never more evident than in the absence of active members in all the sports related communities. 5 weeks ago:
Go Bills, fellow Reddit expat and I definitely miss just getting news posted about the team and Lemmy is nowhere near that level of activity. I’ve ended up just going back to old.Reddit and browsing new here and there - no commenting, not logged in, so it’s not nearly as time consuming as it used to be. Hopefully someday people will use Lemmy for stuff like this!
- Comment on Report: Apple CEO “cares about nothing else” Than Building Breakout AR Glasses Before Meta 1 month ago:
As somebody who wanted google glass back in the day and thinks AR glasses would be really really cool, this is ultimately where I end up on it, and with a lot of tech in general: the primary usefulness of any of this shit is in accurate and relevant information, and that’s the part of the equation that these big companies are definitely NOT in the business of producing. In fact, they seem to have discovered a while back that inaccurate and irrelevant information being blasted in your face is the real money maker. And now with AI/ML producing so much/filling in gaps, I just can’t imagine that it’s going to get any better.
That being said, I think the tech is so cool. I’d love to travel to a new city and be able to get directions around to different sightseeing spots and real time star ratings above all the restaurants instead of anxiously glancing at my phone the entire time. If we ever get to that level of goodness I’m in, but I have a lot of doubts that it’ll ever be more than another attention-seeking thing attached to your body.

Fellow early 30s 0 point gang right here, my back has been flaring up lately…

Or a zero if they read the point system correctly ;)
- Comment on I'm gonna be really pissed if my chtistofascist parents were right 3 months ago:
If you have the time, I highly recommend the book “American Apocalypse” by Matthew Avery Sutton. Really digs into the history of this whole thing and helps you realize just HOW MUCH of this shit is truly self fulfilling prophecy. I’m currently working up the courage to gift it to my highly evangelical family and forcing them to read it.

Link is broken for me
- Comment on Facepalm on multiple levels 4 months ago:
Yeah but the bald eagle in particular has a proclivity towards cowardice and scavenging, despite its size. Red tailed hawk or turkey is a much more admirable bird

Same bromo, finally felt like it was time. So many good memories on Reddit for me over the last 14 years but finally felt like it was the right move to no longer give it my attention!
