  Maybe keep your shitty politics out of your shitty product next time, and then you won’t face political consequences.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking leeches⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s a line to draw between exploiting tenants, and compensation for providing dwelling.

  You might even argue the OP creates this ambiguity based on interpretation of the wording, or poor communication.

  For a productive conversation, let’s be crystal clear where that line is drawn.

  Maybe it’s the other way around… Maybe people predisposed to being lied to will have political views that are that lie.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do most Americans use an iPhone?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Americans don’t really value freedom. Not really. Americans pretend they like freedom, but they will give up all their freedoms for the slightest bit of convenience, and because social media told them so.

  Am I talking about consumer electronics, or politics? Impossible to say.

  US policy doesn’t get to dictate how websites operate in non US jurisdiction. The US acting like it gets to bully the rest world into doing whatever it wants is the whole issue at hand. That’s the point: the trump admin wants to use US influence to intimidate, bully, and antagonize other countries by disrespecting their sovereignty.

  I’m pretty liberal and haven’t had much issue with lemmy.ml. Stay away from lemmygrad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Day 1 Reddit Refugee⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Been on Lemmy since the App/API ban. Haven’t looked back at reddit since, other than the occasional search result pointing to someone’s q&a.

  Side note, anyone else tired of all the sanitized AI slop that pervades search results? The only websites worth visiting these days are user forums (incl. reddit/Lemmy) and wikipedia.

  There is no justice in the US right now. Why bother holding this person accountable when we can’t even hold the highest position in the land accountable for their crimes. The social fabric is unraveling.

  First we learned that idiocracy was a documentary. Now we are learning that Minority Report was a documentary too.

  Damn, what a time to be alive.

  This situation has come to be, through the ignorance and inaction of ordinary people. Your attitude is part of the problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo Targets YouTube Accounts Showing Emulated Games⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I grew up with a Nintendo controller in hand.

  There’s a very good reason I now game almost exclusively on PC. None of what Nintendo is doing is going to convince me to come back. Quite the opposite in fact.

  Cause consumers let them.

  Why do consumers let them? It’s just step one of enshittification : first, be nice to your customers until they become dependent on you and you’re the only game in town…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Final Fantasy 9 Remake May Not Happen as a Single Title⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  OG had three CD’s, three major acts, across a pretty epic journey. Breaking it up into three parts is really not that surprising.

  Personally, I love the expanded development of characters like Jessie.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When you inhale helium from a balloon, do you weigh less?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Let me take this a step absurdly far:

  You may be slightly more buoyant (and therefore apply less force on a scale) everytime you breath in. It’s not the presence of air that has this effect, it’s the decrease in density of your total body (mass/volume) that has that effect. (Helium just contributes a fractional more difference in density compared to air, but how much you breath in probably matters much more than what you breath)

  Except, maybe not. Because the air you breath in partially dissolves in your blood. Dissolved matter does not decrease density, rather the opposite: it packs tightly into the voids, increasing mass for the same volume.

  How much of an effect this has is hugely debatable, probably depends on a dozen biological and circumstantial factors, and this is where my knowledge ends. But it’s fun to imagine.

  However, if you can imagine inhaling but holding your breath at the same time, creating a vacuum in your lungs, then yes, you would be more buoyant, even more than inhaling helium, and the scale would read slightly less.
