Because the stock market is pure fantasy that doesn’t have anything to do with the economy?

Sounds like you maybe had FSR on.
- Comment on meirl 1 day ago:
It’s not complicated. The Usenet provider gives you access to Usenet, and the indexer lets you search it for whatever you want. You then download it with a Usenet client. You can do it manually, much the same way as you download a torrent from any site. if you’ve downloaded a torrent before, you would be able to manage Usenet with no issues at all.
Or, if you’re willing to spend a few hours setting up the Servarr apps on an old computer like I did, you can automate the whole thing. I recommend this option, because you do it once and then you have a seamless way to fetch files from torrent and Usenet both without ever doing anything more than typing in the name of the show/movie. The Servarr apps search for, download, and import media into my library so that I can stream them to all my devices using Jellyfin (or Plex, if you like corpo apps). They even fetch proper subtitles for everything, and I also have it set up so after I’ve watched an episode, it’s deleted to make room for something else. It’s as easy as Netflix, at a fraction of the cost.

- Comment on Discord requiring you to add a phone number **after** the creation of your account 1 day ago:
I mean, if you’re using Discord, then you’re probably not the kind of person to be bothered by this anyway.
- Comment on meirl 1 day ago:
Hmm, pay $20 a month apiece for 20 different shitty streaming services that use ads, or $6/month for Usenet access and $1/month for indexer access, and get every movie and TV show for nothing extra…
Choices, choices.

Why would you apologize for a test not going well? That’s the whole point of a test.

The street outside my house is a county road, I don’t think anybody is gonna see me for awhile.

No, that would probably be a strawman instead.

That’s not an ad hominem. Don’t use words you don’t know the meaning to.
If somebody insults you while also attacking an argument you made, that’s not an ad hominem. An ad hominem is specifically only when someone uses a personal attack to attempt to directly refute your argument. And even then, just because something is a logical fallacy, doesn’t mean it’s a bad argument. That’s called the Fallacy fallacy. Good arguments can still include logical fallacies such as ad hominems.
For example, if I say Kanye West is wrong about Jews being untrustworthy because he’s a shitty person and a Nazi, that’s an ad hominem. But it’s also true. The personal attack takes nothing away from the validity of my argument.

I mean, rules are just guidelines. If you’re that shitty of a person, there’s really nothing stopping the admins of .world from just banning you anyway.

Yes, that’s the one. It works by just using Javascript to check that the browser is OK.

I’m a simple guy. If a website I visit uses any kind of captcha other than Cloudflare’s Turnstile, then I close that website and don’t use it ever again. I’m not interested in wasting five minutes picking which squares have busses in them because ReCaptcha has decided I have to do the captcha 200 times.

I’m not interested in getting a rise out of you, because like rest of the world, I don’t know or care who you even are. I’m just pointing out how fragile your ego seems to be, if you lose your shit on Lemmy about some mediocre comic.
- Comment on Stand-up comic, Steve Hofstetter, explains firing his agency for signing Kanye West 1 week ago:
And I worked the stand up circuit in Toronto.
So, you’re jealous because you faded into obscurity, and he hasn’t yet? He seems to be living rent-free in your head, that’s for sure. One little post about him, and you write a two hundred word rant about it.

I mean, everything should be open source. There’s way too many good games and useful applications that have become abandonware, that could have been saved.

Maybe it’s easier to talk to than a real person. Real people have differing opinions, which is rude.

- Comment on Gemini wont talk about Bernie Sanders 2 weeks ago:
This is absolutely a good thing. There’s enough misinformation out there, we don’t need people getting their news about politics from an algorithm that is used to generate text.
- Comment on Exogate Initiative, a "Stargate Command" basebuilder and management game, released on Steam 3 weeks ago:
Not necessarily. There are examples of good games based on sci-fi franchises that aren’t riddled with shitty micro transactions. Starship Troopers: Extermination is a good example. It’s a base-building online cooperative FPS, and it’s actually a lot of fun. Surprisingly, even though you almost always play with strangers, (unless you have sixteen friends all ready to play) everyone has pretty good teamwork. I often see small groups sortie out in precise strikes into the bug horde to revive downed team mates.
The fact that this game exists, and is also being made by a smaller dev studio, never ceases to amaze me. This is a franchise that has produced several movies, video games, and related media. You wouldn’t expect the rights to something like this to be given to anyone but a big AAA publisher who can fork out a ton of money.
