  Knowing what those Edgelord goats are up to, I think it’s quite accurate - they’re fucking amazing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Too tired for a witty title⁩ ⁨⁨19⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Ya can’t stop progress!

  (and by progress, we meant substance dependency)

  Just goatse then?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨petition to change name of "Lemmy Shitpost" to "Lemmy Hornypost"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  And it’s wonderful

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Newest Testament: So Hot RN⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If it wasn’t for the hand holding the book I’d think this was slop going by the ammmo belts…

  Its fantastic either way, though

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Life never works exactly the way you want it⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Well… Technically it just ‘outsources the problems’ to those around you, so maybe something to consider.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Life never works exactly the way you want it⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You may be aging?

  There’s an incredible workaround for it, I hear. Cures all ailments, apparently…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is Windows still bloated⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The compatibility is at the software layer, not so much hardware (but really all they’re doing is adding more new stuff, not dropping old).

  Yes, your shitty access database that calls a Borland back-end still works, etc…

  Provided the device drivers aren’t using direct memory access, they’ll typically work, too

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Our Commitment to Windows Quality⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s nothing to android being over 3 times larger in install base (hard to get total #s however).

  Sure windows rules PCs but the technology isn’t that prevalent, and there are far more all encompassing technologies out there - these guys just like the sound of their own voice

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Our Commitment to Windows Quality⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep, I mean, we should have seen it coming in a way…

  Its laughable howuch they’re huffing their own supply, however - thinking windows is one of the most used technologies (what, after radio, eftpos and whatnot! Theyre so fucking proud its revolting…)

  As to whether the shareholders will allow them to claw back these AI hooks, who knows? I for one, doubt it. Hard…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Our Commitment to Windows Quality⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Bingo!

  As someone basically stuck using this shit (well, it’s healthcare so we’re still half stuck on 10 LTSC to be fair), I’m glad to see them talking about less obnoxious defaults!

  I used to do a lot of default config and was pissed that defender blocked the user -based regkeys for disabling their shitty stock ticker widget, for example. Touching notepad was also a travesty.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Catastrophe⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Team effort shit posting!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Am I too late?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This is perfect, OP.

  For those unleashed uninitiated, it’s called ecce homo, I believe. There’s a great background at Wikipedia as usual

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How possibly?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The ‘action movies only’ boyfriends…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How possibly?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m also strongly resonating with pseudo-masculinity!

  Thanks for coining that wee gem

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How possibly?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Where do they get these people?!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How possibly?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That was quite the rollercoaster and I’ve got a complex bundle of sympathy and relating going on (as a kiwi, not the Zionism)

  I’ve no idea who wrote that rock shocker but it came up today and was fun trying to remember

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Guys this game is too hard!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmyshitpost lately⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Is that Miriam margoylees?

  Good sharing, you too - please keep it up!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨lulz⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m sure there’s many other layers to this onion f we wanted to follow the rabbit hole…

  • Eidola’s exceptional album degeneterra comes to mind. From memory they claimed the albums concept was like a tesseract that can be viewed from multiple angles through each song.

  • There’s probably room for some bad religion in there, too?

  • Katatonia probably deserves a mention as well, but it’s all so vague and personal it’s hard to really tie down.

  I haven’t studied any of them, however…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3217: Home Remedies⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  How are you managing that in 30 minutes?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bean virus⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I like this long term prank… Solves Xmas challenges, too (sorta - it’s a bit shitty)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who Wants to Be A Billionaire?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  As stated by the great theologian J. Biafra: “I’d rather stay a child and keep my self respect if being an adult means being like you”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨3.5 Stars⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow, that giraffe is obnoxious

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Being alive in 2026 be like⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No, there’s dozens of different floppy drive faces. I recognize their round eject button on the left. The thing on the right is the activity LED.

  You’re right it’s during the messy HP/Compaq time when they held on to the brand. I remember them from my desktop support days. I thought it was an 8300 but that’s wrong

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Being alive in 2026 be like⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah, isn’t that an older Compaq with a floppy?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U WOT M8??⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Cahm on engerland! Score some fackin goaals!

  …Bangs on drum…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U WOT M8??⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That explains the magical dance required to connect things - too many dialects/accents and historical bad blood (with just about everyone)
