I thought it was about waterboarding

SAME! Also recommend Alton Brown

And I assume the image is an unrelated demonstrating a rescue operation

They got pulverized

Apparently there’s been a “compress the rich” hashtag going around.

Though That 19 year old didn’t want any part in this, was scared of the whole thing, and only went to appease his father

Yep, I try to upvote everything and comment as much as I can. I’m still confused about how to post to specific instances on Jerboa though. Like I’m typing the name but it’s not showing up in the dropdown

The most discouraging thing that happened was that when I wrote a long and thoughtdul comment and press send, Jerboa gives me the “java type blabla” error, and I lost everything I typed. Then I don’t wanna type it again and I just give up on commenting

Hopefully these issues will be fixed soon! As I understand it it’s not even an issue with Jerboa specifically.

Anyone know why this is happening?

Damn, I don’t have Reddit anymore so I can’t vote or even see the upvote numbers on the comments. Can anyone give me the rundown? This is hilarious

You mean the big expansion pack they released a while back? It was incredible, the devs just dropped it one day out of the blue, all for free, nobody had asked for it but everyone was amazed by it.

Been replaying Into The Breach. One of the best turn based tactic games there is out there.

Holy shit

Agreed!

I’ve been wanting to boycott Reddit for a long time, and the list of problems I had with it was very long. It took this API issue to finally get some community action.

But in short, Reddit is moving away from genuine community, and more towards fake astroturfed corporate content with manipulated comments and unabashed bot activity.

Bots

I have nothing against it OP for sharing this, but the headline of this article by PCgamer is super clickbaity, witholding the key info until you give them a click. There was a subreddit called “saved you a click” that was basically taking clickbait headlines and putting the “prize info” in the post title. I wonder if there will be a Lemmy equivalent.

Yes, it also had something to do with the optical center. No one’s is viewing these cursors at the size of this meme. When they’re tiny, the windows one worked for its intended on cathode-ray tube monitors. New Windows cursors don’t look like that.

That being said, these mac vs windows memes are so stupid. I hate both companies equally but I have to use them both for work. What you gonna do.

Wow I didn’t know they were canning old.reddit.

To them, loss of 3rd party users is insignificant because they’re users they weren’t able to monetize to begin with

I was just commenting that it feels like early 2000s internet. Reject modernity embrace tradition.

Is anyone here old enough to remember SomethingAwful and communities like that from the early 2000s? Lowtax drama aside, during its hayday the community was the source of so many OG memes. Here’s hoping that Lemmy will have that nostalgic feeling.

I uninstalled all my Reddit related apps just so I wouldn’t open them out of reflex. I think this blackout is gonna be permanent for me chief
