For when you really want to blend into the crowd and not be bothered by possible employers or recruiters. Fuck yeah, I might do that then.
- Comment on What is it called when you believe the U.S. political parties shouldn’t exist? 2 weeks ago:
I think parties are fine but a multi party system usually works much better since parties will have to make coalitions and will usually shit on each other a bit less.

That’s so disgusting. Together these company leaders have unprecedented power (much more than they should have) but instead of fighting this administration, they support it.
And no, this is ultimately not good for them. Yes, Trump is easily impressed by hollow compliments and meaningless presents, but he gets upset just as easily. A true lawful administration on the other hand might be annoying with its regulations but it gives you the ability to know what you’re up to and plan ahead for the long run.
Apart from all the other concerns, this behavior is incredibly short-sighted.
- Comment on Leave it to a Bezos-owned company to confuse customers and mislead them for profit. 3 weeks ago:
I remember that I wanted to subscribe to a German newspaper that advertised 6 months for 99ct or whatever. I wanted to see if the regular pricing after the 6 months was good but I had trouble even finding it and when I finally found it, the different subscription options were so opaque that I truly didn’t understand which plan to pick. In the end I didn’t subscribe. I have no idea why some companies make their offerings so inaccessible.
- Comment on What's going on with imgur right now? 4 weeks ago:
Lol same here. I wish Imgur stayed a simple image hosting site
- Comment on Is This Social Media? 5 weeks ago:
Which is not fitting because it’s much more social than something as superficial as Instagram - to me at least. Let’s call what we have here social media and the other stuff can be legacy, corporate or ad based social media which describes it much better.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
~sorry, I threw up in my mouth a bit~
- Comment on Tastes bubbly 2 months ago:
Because one way or the other similar products made it into our mouths before. Shampoo running down your face and some of it enters your mouth is definitely not unusual.
- Comment on It's not just kind, it's kinder 2 months ago:
Or google Struwwelpeter if you wanna see what German kids are exposed to. Happy tree friends is tame in comparison.
- Comment on These totally legitimate comments 2 months ago:
Makes the comments stick out more, increases the chance someone clicks the profile
- Comment on Is there ettiquite for following people on Instagram? 2 months ago:
Follow back who you like to follow. Some people might consider it impolite not following them back but I think that’s kinda silly.
I would approve follow requests always when you are following the person. Sometimes someone follows me but does not accept my request to follow them back and that always strikes me as kinda frustrating, especially if I don’t know who that person is.
- Comment on Reddit bought a giant ad in Paris, urging young french people to create an account 2 months ago:
Put the sticker of a lemmy instance over the Reddit logo
- Comment on Hate when it happens! 2 months ago:
why I never wanted to exercise even as an adult
Seriously, nothing has ruined exercising as an adult as much as gym class. It took me YEARS after being out of school to finally enjoy running.
- Comment on Playdate Season 2 2 months ago:
I got kinda caught up in Dig Dig Dino but to be honest, I‘m lagging behind in giving the newer games a fair shot since the release of the Switch 2 has distracted me slightly
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
Holy shit, I was vaguely aware of this site but I never heard of the whole Byuu situation and just googled it. It’s pretty fucked up.
- Comment on Anon tries to save money 3 months ago:
Yeah and something that is useful for all kinds of situations like circumventing geo-blocking as well. So it’s always a good idea to have a VPN.
- Comment on Techno feudalism, here we come 4 months ago:
I used them on some projects but it feels like copilot is still the best application of the tech and even that is very ummm hit or miss.
Writing whole parts of the application using AI usually led to errors that I needed to debug and coding style and syntax were all over the place. Everything has to be thoroughly reviewed all the time and sometimes the AI codes itself into a dead end and needs to be stopped.
Unfortunately I think this will lead to small businesses vibe coding some kind of solution in AI and then resorting to real people to debug whatever garbage they „coded“ which will create a lot of unpleasant work for devs.
- Comment on How can Doge access critical government infrastructure and fire people if it isn't even a real department? 7 months ago:
To add to this: The Supreme Court has granted the president immunity from any wrongdoing and Trump has pardoning powers. So Trump or anyone close to him can essentially not be convicted, hence the massive corruption we’re seeing right now.
- Comment on I love my smart TV (From Mastodon) - Repost 8 months ago:
I recently got the Bravia XR-55A95L probably going through the same thought process as you. You can indeed just skip all the TOS and set it up as a Basic TV.
However: The software is crap. Complete garbage. Random reboots - I already had to reset it once completely because it no longer showed a picture (and then set it up again). Every day it will show you a notification that it’s not connected to the internet DESPITE having networking disabled completely.
I tried to update the TV from USB and it failed every time. I eventually gave in and connected it to the internet to update it only to see that I‘m already on the newest version (which I assume is also why updating from USB failed with a cryptic error).
I never had this much trouble with a device that costs as much as a MacBook or a high end gaming PC and I would’ve already returned if there competition wasn’t even worse.

Can you give a recommendation? I too looked for big displays and found commercial ones to be used as digital billboards but the specs weren’t all that good (no oled, no hdr).

How long until somebody automates the scraping with throw-away email addresses?
- Comment on Is Threads fully integrated with the Fediverse? 8 months ago:
Where are you based? I think this is not available in the EU since Zuck wants to punish us for being privacy focused and threatening his exploitative business model.
- Comment on Not enough people buying Premium, eh? 8 months ago:
Yeah that I think is the most upsetting part to me. Replace a perfectly fine product with a half baked one.
- Comment on Not enough people buying Premium, eh? 8 months ago:
It is because it includes YouTube Music. A really crappy Spotify clone that nobody asked for.
- Comment on Christmas cheer 8 months ago:
So it ranks higher on social networks that are ad financed. These networks will usually „shadow ban“ content which references illegal things or contains swear words and rank it much lower since advertisers will not wanna put their ads next to it. It’s pathetic.
Also kinda dumb since this post is still about cocaine and whichever ad is next to will still be next to „bad cocaine content“ or whatever.
- Comment on European Federation of Journalists to stop posting content on X 9 months ago:
Yeah it’s a shame that everyone is only pulling out after the US election. They should have done it a year or even two ago.

When this was last posted a few days ago it had much less JPEG. Needs more JPEG.
- Comment on So this is how liberty dies... 10 months ago:
Yeah holy shit, I listened to an interview with him with a legitimate news outlet and he seemed shockingly reasonable. Then i watched some clips of what he said at republican events and it was the usual awful shit.
Dude conforms to whatever is expected of him. No standards, no values, no morals. He’s terrible.
- Comment on dch82 browses Lemmy 1 year ago:
Probably the guy using some weird lemmy client that’s in alpha that triggered a swipe gesture without the user noticing it.

If you’re brainwashed by your own propaganda, this probably feels like a good idea
