  True, but maybe a good compromise would be having the fuzzy date in parentheses/brackets if there’s enough space.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨K.I.S.S.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I absolutely hate fuzzy dates, not only because of the problem you mentioned, but also because they can get wildly inaccurate. For example, on youtube I often see something counted as posted a year ago, but if I look at the absolute timestamp, it was actually 1 year and 10 months. That’s too big of a difference to truncate.

  The solution to debt is more debt.

  This is just one of many uses of texting.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hopefully, he will be 6 underground by that time.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I already vote for democrats all the way down ballot for every election, now what? How about democrats do their fucking job and actually try to get elected instead of demanding we settle for fascism-lite or else we get fascism?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hopefully, he will be 6 underground by that time.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  remove fascism vs keep fascism seems pretty “black and white” to me.

  Democrats don’t even want to defund ICE. How are they removing fascism?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hopefully, he will be 6 underground by that time.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  How do you think we got trump in the first place? Democrats kept moving to the right and making things worse until a candidate like trump could seize the moment. So yeah, you will die on that hill because it was a hill built by voting the “lesser of two evils” while both parties moved to be more evil, until we’ve got the current level of evil we have now.

  Pubes, but I don’t like when they get stuck between my teeth.

  Fast food just shrinks portions and jacks up prices in response.

  That’s what a paper bag is for.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone in tech confirm?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sometimes I wonder if it’s me getting old or if it’s tech being more and more about solutions in search of a problem. I feel like we had reached a “good enough” point for a while, but I can’t tell if the “good enough” judgement is just me getting old and stubborn.

  I’m at carolina reaper. What now?

  A broken system will eventually work when the broken pieces have been replaced.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨happy buy nothing day to those who celebrate⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I like to buy the least I can every day. If the economy relied on my purchasing habits, it would collapse.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨card game shop⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Unpopular opinion but I agree. Maybe I don’t hang around enough stinky people, but I’ve encountered far more instances of punch-in-the-face perfume/cologne than body odor.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Scientists have been studying remote work for four years and have reached a very clear conclusion: “Working from home makes us thrive”⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Advancing tech was sold as a way to make all our lives better. Here is an instance of tech making our lives better, but instead companies dismiss it because the real purpose of tech for the capital class is control.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨necessary read⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The non-corrupt ones are a tiny minority and get drowned out by well-funded opposition. If the tide even hints at turning then the billionaires turn to straight-up fascism, as we’re seeing now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨necessary read⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In 2016 both Hillary and Trump had a lower than 50% approval rating and yet they were the frontrunners: pewresearch.org/…/an-examination-of-the-2016-elec…

  Congress has a less than 50% approval rating and it’s made up of elected politicians: statista.com/…/public-approval-rating-of-the-us-c…

  We don’t have a democracy, we have a system where you can only choose which representative for billionaires you dislike the least. They’re all corrupt, any that aren’t are quickly drowned out by well-funded opposition.

  It’s too bad the servers aren’t still up. I loved the multiplayer of Crysis Wars.

  I would try eating this. The texture probably wouldn’t be great, but the taste might not be all that bad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Based and Red Pilled Gigachad, many such cases 😔⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you? Control over the medium is far more powerful than being a mere user of that medium.

  Yeah, it’s less “stability in world events” and more so the west riding high off winning the cold war.
