Oh fuck, I think that would have caused Trump to want to pardon him since he’s obsessed with Hannibal
- Comment on Just because you're a slob at home do you have to be an inconsiderate slob in public 3 days ago:
… Yes.
So dont be inconsiderate and gross.
Where is the confusion?
- Comment on Just because you're a slob at home do you have to be an inconsiderate slob in public 3 days ago:
The people who take off their shoes on public transit sure do.
I’d happily place that bet.
- Comment on Just because you're a slob at home do you have to be an inconsiderate slob in public 4 days ago:
So let me at least stretch my legs when it doesn’t inconvenience anyone. Shoes off, socks on.
- Comment on Just because you're a slob at home do you have to be an inconsiderate slob in public 4 days ago:
I think the people who would take off their shoes on public transit are absolutely the kind of folks who will have taken them off in other scenarios, and are far more likely to be contributing to the infestation of seats. Yes.
- Comment on Just because you're a slob at home do you have to be an inconsiderate slob in public 4 days ago:
And my comment remains unchanged.
- Comment on Just because you're a slob at home do you have to be an inconsiderate slob in public 4 days ago:
Those public seats are disgusting and absolutely rife with bacteria, there are studies on that.
I wonder how they could have possibly gotten that way.

Looks like a couple of shitty posts
- Comment on And there was no on line manual 1 week ago:
You don’t…
You absolutely…
Even when it’s “programmed” it’ll still slide a bit short or long & you have to find tune it.
OK yeah fair. Especially if you play with the buttons a lot like trying to press them both at the same time.
- Comment on The last thing Brian Thompson saw before he died 1 week ago:
It could be as simple as he wanted to be found, and his message brought out.
Or it could be something wild.
No way to know yet, but what it doesnt change is the general response from Americans - where it goes from here is the biggest unknown, IMO.

- Comment on In Germany, a Man Who Was Stabbed by a Jihadi Has Been Fined for Criticizing Islam 2 weeks ago:
Wild, its almost like both people got in trouble for their respective crimes.
Just crazy.
- Comment on 2k Launcher has been fully removed from all games 3 weeks ago:
Then they’d have to update the actual game, as opposed to just updating the launcher when a change needs to be made.
Updating the launcher is quicker and cheaper.
- Comment on 8 yr old me after my parents did my woodworking assignment 3 weeks ago:
You’re being incredibly generous if you think he understands any of it.
- Comment on You know what, fuck you [un-Jags uar icon] 4 weeks ago:
It might not be as good a brag down at the country club
That depends on if you’re buying new or you have a classic roadster.
- Comment on Watching passport bros get bodied by SEA women is a complete mood. Get rekt manlet. 5 weeks ago:
I see you’ve met my moron of an uncle. Who is in his late 50’s.
- Comment on Websites: Then vs Now 5 weeks ago:
Yeah, definitely subjective, but to me the early days of the web were before HTML 2 - so up to 1995.
And yeah, so many tables for a long time… Mostly because it was a bit messy to work with and had limitations, not to mention browser support requirements and a pretty fast moving sets of specs…
It was fun though.
- Comment on Websites: Then vs Now 5 weeks ago:
divs were added in the late 90’s… that is not what I’d call early internet
- Comment on How is it that "protecting basic democracy and the rule of law, and not crowning a criminal dictator" wasn't even on the chart?! 1 month ago:
The obsession is because that’s the news friendly way of answering with “racism”.
- Comment on Five flavors 🤤 2 months ago:
A series I personally love listening to while working out. Especially the 80s pop covers.
- Comment on Is Lemmy an effective alternative to Reddit? 2 months ago:
Active subscriber count should be the more active one, but I agree.
Ideally we’d have native multi a communities right now, so I could see all of my subscribed Linux communities in my Linux multi, all of my subscribed ttrpg in the ttrpg multi, etc.
Definitely an improvement that could be in place. I think letting the user combine the groups to see would be best, because then you can group how you’d like. Having multiple communities with similar topics is no different than reddit, but reddit has multis.

One of the rare situations where that specific mustache can make me laugh!

I remember seeing your toaster progress pretty recently!
Congrats!
- Comment on Is Lemmy an effective alternative to Reddit? 2 months ago:
Same as reddit when it was new.
I’d actually say Lemmy feels larger over the same timeframe, but that’s just sticking my thumb up in the air sort of measurement.
The problem with growth is that too much, and it ends up trolls and bots making up the majority, and too little growth means it withers on the vines.
With federation (and the ability to defederate), I think the ideal ground can be found. We’ll see though!
- Comment on Anon finally touches grass 2 months ago:
No, it was Godwin for internet memes.
If you mean image macros, sure. That’s a subset of what a meme is.
- Comment on Anon finally touches grass 2 months ago:
The original idea of a meme came from Dawkins in the 70’s, and “Internet Meme” from Godwin in the early 90’s, talking about message boards, usenet, listservs, etc.
4chan did not start the concept, no. Lolcats came from 4chan, iirc. But internet memes predate the existence of 4chan.
- Comment on I'm as white as snow but I'm still not white enough to eat this. 2 months ago:
Unfortunately, I am. Too much capsaicin messes with digestion (slows it down), and causes more stomach acid.
So with my gastrointestinal system’s hatred of my body (including food allergies which wreak havoc on me), I am at the top tier of too damn white to get to enjoy the heat anymore. So, I guess thanks for a new pepper I can check out!
