I think I largely agree with your broader point. The analogy I go to music. The difference is between drawing your largest possible audience within a niche versus trying to reach the largest possible audience with whatever has worked before. Very few people are actually creating or using them creatively. Most are just recreating or sharing what appeals to them.
Just because they want to be the first one to say it
Or rather because they want to be the first one to take part in the comedy ritual this time.
Not a fan of memes or jokes in titles/general for semi serious publications. Not entirely because srsbusinessonly but more clarity in communication. Leave the excessive meme usage for the science communicators in order draw the groans that sustain their life essence.

As much as I think what this person is arguing is grotesque, I agree with their reply. This was probably a bit needlessly personal tbh.
- Comment on It’s a good thing they died at Gallipoli 2 weeks ago:
That very vocal section who glorifies death and violence are the same people organising, participating in, and attending the parades.
-Source, my feelings.
Countless people participate to acknowledge the efforts and sacrifices of those who died serving their country. Even when we were taught about it in schools the focal points were sacrifice and mateship of those that served and still serve. Present day service members also attend to acknowledge those that came before them. Plenty of it is nationalistic nuthugging but your willingness to just make up generalisation and whatever claims to suit your point is frankly just gross.
- Comment on It’s a good thing they died at Gallipoli 2 weeks ago:
Apparently any clown can write an article these days. Like WWI started because Britain had some weight to throw around; with a quick reference to reality with the “a dead duke” line. Clearly an article aimed at inflaming rage click via shitting on service members. Using those who died in horrific condition to prop up their shitty career and political opinions. ANZAC day remembers those who died in war. You don’t need to agree with every conflict this country has been in to acknowledge those who’ve served it.
Also pro tip, if you’re a journalist and your article unironically includes “this is BAD” then you’re a hack writing for a (paywalled lol) rag.

Is it too early for embracer to dissolve and fuck right off out of the industry entirely? Asking for a mate.

Love Linux, definitely foresee myself having it as a daily driver in the not too distant future. That out of the way, I initially thought “is this even a shitpost” lmao

Just love that sneaky edit btw
I always come back to these buzzword hive mind lemmy hatred posts to observe the ignorance.
So enlightened, just checking back in to try and toss some wise, personal insults because someone had the audacity to post something you disagree with.
She’s getting trashed in the YT video comments too. Who knew lemmys hive mind was so powerful. Couldn’t just be that people dislike Paltrow because she sells pseudoscience (among other reasons). No sir, it’s the hive mind.

Oof what a retort. What? Only old people misspell things? I’ve been on reddit for longer than I care to admit and almost never has anyone replied after 24 hours. That and you opening with an age based sting just led me to guess you were projecting. The username zinger certainly didn’t help either.

Old for mistyping wings instead of ones. Not old, replying to a two day old post. Totally checks out.

Damn good point, the old rage engagement gets em every time.
- Comment on Gwyneth Paltrow Is Full of Regret While Eating Spicy Wings | Hot Ones 1 month ago:
Well, I guess if we sidestep moral accountability for a moment, it doesn’t really make sense is why I bitch. We’re not exactly going to get anything out of it apart from a glance back at her career because it’s not like she’s on the show to promote anything. So my point is what is old mate getting out of it? If he’s just trading interviews for brand exposure now it doesn’t bid well for his show.
- Comment on Gwyneth Paltrow Is Full of Regret While Eating Spicy Wings | Hot Ones 1 month ago:
Why even have her on hot wings? She doesn’t act, is barely in the Hollywood/pop culture landscape and now runs a company selling bullshit to people. Is old mate that hard up for people to go on the show?

Hopefully Elijah Wood being cast means it’ll be weird because otherwise I agree with the other comments, good luck.
- Comment on How can I clean my mouse wheel without taking apart my mouse? 3 months ago:
Only thing I could think of is contact cleaner. I’d make sure it’s compatible with plastic like the brand I buy. Contact cleaner is used for electrical products/circuits and is non conductive. I use it to clean the charging port of my phone when dust gets in there and my vape for similar reasons. Depending on the design of your mouse I don’t see why you couldn’t try flushing it with contact cleaner.
- Comment on What chemicals and tools do I need to clean my bathroom? 4 months ago:
Bleach for pretty much every surface compatible with it. CLR for the shower itself (or a bathroom cleaner specifically for scale and soap scum). Simple Green (or whatever the equivalent is where you’re from) for every thing else. Buy a decent non-scratch scouter (or a couple) as well as some magic erasers to help with any scale that’s resistant to removal. Oh and glass cleaner for the mirror and maybe shower.

How do you get dates because it can be a big factor. My last several relationships have been with people I’ve met in my day to day despite using dating apps to meet people during that duration. Honestly beyond hookups I’d almost suggest staying clear of them. Especially since people are particularly picky on these dating apps and a lot of it is quantity over quality. Meeting people who share similar hobbies/interests to you is the ideal way imo.
