I’m pretty sure this is happening with ADHD meds too.

Was about to say, I’m a healer main who married a healer main. It has its perks

The “two steps forward, one step back” maneuver. Classic.

I saw this coming and switched to GIMP and Inkscape. It’s been a pain but I’ve managed. I’m just the IT guy though, and I would be laughed out of the room if I suggested our marketing team consider making the same switch.

It’s not a matter of seeing it coming. They just don’t care.

Just admiring the kill.

I was thinking about this the other day. I support some very, very technologically limited users and I wondered if anyone out there is working on a distro/DE that looks and feels just enough like windows to get them by

I would never have considered this before they announced Recall. Now it feels like I’m waiting to see just how hard they push it

The difference is none of this kid’s peers will have a similar experience

How about Analogue August or Stop Scrolling September?

I’ll also say, Offline October is pretty dang good.

So your solution is to vote in protest for a party you know won’t win.

I’m actually curious now, what possible good do you think that’s doing?

More like “you think you’re helping but you are not”

In a two party system, voting third party will only ever result in your vote being thrown out. It is taking a stand against reality for the sake of your own personal idealism.

A lot of left-aligned voters learned that lesson the hard way in 2016. If you didn’t learn the lesson, you either weren’t paying attention or your idealism is more important to you than the actual outcome of the vote.

Doing that willingly, despite (or maybe because) the rest of your side screaming at you not to fuck this up again, is absolutely a level of betrayal.

Normies = lurkers

My guess is this saved somebody money.

Simpler design = fewer colors = lower printing cost.

Sometimes this can just be ink cost. Sometimes it can make discrepancies between printers less noticable.

Could still be the other things too

AJJ - People Who Can Eat People Are The Luckiest People

I knew them by their original name (Andrew Jackson Jihad) and was basically given this album as a demo from someone who knew the band.

There is something so raw and real about this album that just did not make it to anything that came later. It was like they gave up the edge that set them apart when they rebranded to make themselves more marketable.

I get it, the original name was bad. Like actually pretty bad. But I also genuinely feel like the name wasn’t the only thing they changed.

Okay then, where did all the young and in-touch people end up?

Gmail has a bad habit of losing my emails anyway. Maybe yours too if you ever used Google Inbox.

I migrated my main account to Inbox and it was honestly the best email experience I’ve had. Unfortunately, the forced migration following its collapse left my Gmail riddled with problems.

Granted, it’s not losing days worth of email. It just occasionally attempts to automatically categorize emails into categories that don’t exist, removing them from my inbox and leaving them in a weird uncategorized limbo space. Once there, I have to search for them specifically before they will show up anywhere.

The worst part is, it is so inconsistent that I have no clue when to expect it. I have missed major bills this way.

I have a coworker who is also an Inbox refugee. He is the only other person I’ve met with identical Gmail issues.

it’s becoming more obvious every day that lemmy is where the old and out of touch people migrated to

Hey I’ve heard there’s this really cool app for lipsyncing and dancing. Apparently it’s getting pretty popular. Sounds like you’d have more fun there

Given how many politicians are deeply closeted, I like to imagine they hurried this one along quietly
