The biggest problem is that federation splits the communities between instances. So a single interest may have 5-10 different communities, all with fewer users than on an equivalent subreddit.

I’ve been saying this since the beginning, Lemmy needs a way to follow topics that allow you to subscribe to all related communities at once. And posting to a topic on one community allows it to show up across different communities of the same topic.

They’re the baristas. Because at least they can make latte art while they scrounge for tips from the tip jar.

Yeah… Hopefully not in 10 years, if I do things right.

What species works 9-5? I’d love to have more time off.

And after a month, you realized that you Pavloved yourself into thinking your phone was ringing and hating the song when you heard it casually.

It’s like using your favorite song as an alarm. Don’t know how that doesn’t ruin those songs for people.

“Hey, do you want you and your families to stop suffering from a lack of food, clean water, healthcare, and housing? We can fix that.”

Might be a start. But it’s never approached that way.

People don’t usually want to be terrorists. The places these people come from are the poorest on earth and don’t know anything other than suffering and exploitation.

Is this story leaking from the dimension where the Taliban are global leaders of peace, the Kardashians have Nobel Prizes, and Hippopotamus meat is considered a delicacy?

I couldn’t justify $14 a month for YT Premium especially when YT Music sucks so much. And it’s very likely just going to get more expensive.

If they could stop bundling them both together and give me an option to just get rid of ads, I’d probably go back to paying. But for now, NewPipe is a way better experience.

Hmm, who has better information about COVID… the CDC or Fox News?

Guess which one conservatives believe.

Gonna sideload cocaine while I mainline heroin.

The united states. Our sugar industry lobbied hard for the government to tell everyone that fat is bad for you and funded false studies saying so.

So low-fat and fat-free foods became the norm and to make up for the lack of flavor, companies added loads of sugar to everything and got people addicted to it.

I’m not so sure this copypasta would catch on.

Chocolate milk is the least of the problems. And whole milk should be served because fat is fine for you and 2% and skim just replace the fat with sugar for the taste.

But milk is pretty much inconsequential. There are so many other issues like you mentioned. Zero city walkability, poor nutritional education, food is rarely made fresh and with high quality ingredients, we have too many preservatives, too much sugar, and too many chemicals.

It won’t get better until we fix so many issues.

10 genocides?

I’m realizing now that this would have been super useful when I worked in Loss Prevention way back when. Wish I had known…

“We started this interview and expected it to be a good one, but Sam Altman didn’t answer any of our questions and we have to publish it anyway”

Really want that inheritance, huh?

Hollywood’s (meaning movie and TV producers in general) default is white and straight.

The hetero norm is changing slowly, but the white norm is still very much a thing. Typically for a movie to feature a predominantly POC cast, it’s directed by a POC and listed as a POC movie, rather than just… well, a movie.

Okay, I’m going to be that guy because I don’t see it being pointed out already.

That’s not actual Italian pizza, it’s still an Americanized version.

Real Italian pizza is so thin you have to eat it with a fork and knife and it’s meant for one person, not to share. The one in the picture is still way too thick to be real Italian.

But real Italian pizza in Italy really is on another level. It’s so god damned good, it makes all pizza in America look like cardboard with sauce.

Are you high?
