- Comment on Do all American stores have greeters? 1 hour ago:
Lol same here in the UK. If you go into the big supermarket chains like Tesco, Sainsburys and Asda, there are sometimes a whole bunch of registers but only 1 or 2 of them have a human working on them. The rest just sit there as a reminder that human jobs are being replaced by self checkouts.
Even where I work, our company does absolutely anything it can to avoid having to pay people, so we’re often understaffed and overworked.
Tangent over 😅

It was useful back before algorithms and when it was as barebones as Friendica is now.
It’s staggering how awful it has become.

Every single mainstream digital platform on the internet has gone to shit. Streaming, shopping, video/music platforms, social media, creative tools, web search, you name it. I’m tired of it.
The relentless pursuit of profit and growth ruins absolutely everything it touches. Capitalist rot.

- Comment on GTA V was released on this day, 12 years ago 6 days ago:
The problem with V for me was that they released content for GTA Online for years and completely ignored singleplayer. So many heists, weapons, vehicles, outfits, and game mechanics that would have been awesome to try solo, but were only available with a damn internet connection and in a world with other players. Thankfully mods fixed some of that. But it’s not the same because you mostly have to spawn things in with a cheat menu.

I think GTA 6 will be an outstanding game, but I also think it will be Rockstar’s greediest release to date. I will make sure to consider everything before I buy it.

- Comment on 1 week ago:
Really feels like we’re seeing the return of 90s/00s era “Christian parents against obscene media” bullshit. Except this time they don’t get laughed at and ignored, they are in control.
Whether its this or social media algorithms forcing people to censor simple words like “kill” and “fuck”, culture is being completely sanitised by the corporate world and to some extent with government backing (depending on country).
Depictions and even mentions of violence, sex, drugs, and the use of swear words are being targeted. It’s completely regressive.

- Comment on Misogyny or something... Idk 2 weeks ago:
Yes. I work in a place that has dozens of gorgeous women come in every day. It’s incredibly easy to not harass, stare, or generally be a creep. But there’s nothing wrong with having a glance at someone who looks amazing.

- Comment on Time to send a message 3 weeks ago:
Ahh I remember this so well. My friend at school tried to set me up with a girl by getting her to add me on MSN. I never even knew what she looked like but my friend said she was cute. It was such a thrill to my ~15 year old self and I got such a warm and giddy feeling at the idea this girl liked me and that I was potentially going to get a girlfriend.
Eventually she sent me a low res picture of herself on a crappy webcam and I was in love.
After a while I met up with her and my friend + his girlfriend. Unfortunately she showed absolutely no interest in me when we met face to face, much to my disappointment. So that went nowhere.
MSN messenger was the shit in it’s day though!
