I assume that rule 2 is more of a “don’t post memes that contain politicians”, since nearly everything that we say or do is political in some sense.

“now” is odd phrasing from an 8 day old account.

I think I’ve seen this artist’s work posted here for over a year.

It looks like you accidentally made your post in the larger header font. If you remove the hyphen at the end, it’ll be normal size again.

Saying 6-7 at random times is the gen-alpha “lulz pancake waffles XD”

Some instances are kinda obvious to figure out what they have in common, like the now-extinct VeganTheoryClub, but some are a little harder to figure out, like the ml in Lemmy.ml is for Marxist-Leninists.

Something that’s a little different compared to other social media platforms (and isn’t on your list of thought/questions) is being able to judge books by their covers.

Since you can choose which is your home instance is based on the rules, moderation, and general vibe, the instance someone is from can tell you A LOT about them. There are some users who just mute all users from certain instances, because of this.

If you’re on Lemmy.world (which is based on the Netherlands, but everyone just assumes is from the USA), you likely won’t be muted because of your home instance since it’s basically the default.

Peter Thiel

A right-wing billionaire who is responsible for a lot modern evils, but he sometimes likes to pull the “I’m not evil or racist, I am gay, so I can’t be”.

You may have heard of Facebook, or Palantir, or JD Vance.

For those unaware, this isn’t something like replacing a slur with removed, he edited users’ comments, turning them into insults to other users.

I don’t care that those original commenters were (likely) pieces of shit, and the people who he made the comments insult were definitely pieces of shit, putting words into people’s mouths to make them fight each other is unforgivable. Even if you put out a shitty apology.

It’s another way to say “radio waves”, so when people actually listened to the radio it was a true statement.

Now it’s podcasts.

The last time this comic was posted, it was removed.

The artist of the comic, Stonetoss, is a nazi. The “hero” of the comic is the robot, and this is designed to make us sympathize with robot-hitler.

The biggest weakness is multiplayer games with aggressive anti-cheat. So those are the types of games you play, continue to stay away from Linux.

But for most games on Linux, it is just install and play now through a platform like Steam. I haven’t run into a game that I want to play that doesn’t basically “just work”.

Allegations of sexual assault and rape.

I would say that most people who own a computer use local apps, and that the experience, and long-term costs, of using a local program is often better than doing something completely cloud-based.

They use data from webtraffic to make their charts, so talking about local apps doesn’t really have much to do with this website.

Because this is stonetoss, this feels like we’re supposed to root for the nazi.

Fuck Stonetoss.

In case you need more context, Matthew 6:5-6:

And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

Edit: Please remember that the bible is very internally inconsistent, and it’s obviously not factual. It’s just funny that the people who claim to be christians don’t know their own book.

whether or not there are better sites for exchanging coin to cold wallets with lower fee’s that are trustworthy.

Nothing connected to crypto is trustworthy.

As a gay male; we do not.

Formatting thing: if you start a line in a new paragraph with four spaces, it assumes that you want to display the text as a code and won’t line break.

This means that the last part of your comment is a long line that people need to scroll to see. If you remove one of the spaces, or you remove the empty line between it and the previous paragraph, it’ll look like a normal comment

With an empty line of space:

1 space - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don’t really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

2 spaces - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don’t really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

3 spaces - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don’t really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

4 spaces -  and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don't really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

Are you sure that it’s linoleum, and not VCT?
