I share your preference but I find it odd to say it’s not journalism if it’s not available for free. Newspapers weren’t free but they were definitely journalism.

Climate change is actually pretty fucking important when it comes to putting food on the table

PPP got abused too but for some reason they never bitch about that

Imagining all the llm dorks suddenly trying to learn typescript over the weekend

“Weird Al, or as I call him not so weird Al, because weird is such a nasty word. Nasty, nasty word. That’s what they called me. They called me weird, it was very unfair. I’m very Normal. But the media, and the left, the antifa, they called it wrong. They’re weird, everyone thinks so.”

You scan a qr code and watch it on your own phone. Checkmate. I suppose if your smartphone dies/breaks/doesn’t exist you’re shit out of luck. Also I guess that means they keep logs of who you are and exactly when you finished shitting.

What a neat idea, China is such an innovative country.

you really are a reddit refugee huh

Except that guy listened to people who knew more than he did

That’s crazy. There’s no way 2/3 of Lemmy uses Emacs.

Originally it was from the supernatural community writing shipfics about Sam and Dean Winchester.

4. We totally thought about this, and we have a great idea for it
5. Women can’t vote, stupid
6. See 5
7. See 5
