I have a workmate who loves to act dumb. We’ve decided fish aren’t animals, they are indeed fish, we’ve also decided jellyfish are crustaceans.

Do we have to decide to share the Nobel prize or does a committee decide that for us?

My parents: “People in our days were men or women, no in between.”

Also my parents: “Yeah, Joe Bloggs, the guy who’s worn womens clothes and accessories for 40 years.”

Pick a lane, do they not exist or have existed for decades?!

“This is unnatural.” - That Pig, probably.

I can’t believe you’d link to the radical left wing woke Fakepedia instead of the fact based Grokpedia. /S

Stoat made a small mention in their name change blog that there’s a big update in the pipeline to bring in voice chat and screen sharing, two of the fundamental functions used by every Discord user that I know. If Stoat manages to bring those two features in at a similar parity to Discord then it’ll be a legitimate candidate for a Discord replacement.

Unfortunately, from my research most other platforms either don’t have voice and screen share at all or they do but it’s implemented in a way that’s far from optimal.

The micro-hydrogen Avifuel Cells™ they run on are super expensive.

Could literally be me but 10 years instead of 15. I hope you’re doing so much better now and that many positive things come your way.

No idea what you’re talking about.

They’re referring to an old controversy that was a mixture of bad decisions and conspiracy. They’ve now linked an article to the outcome of it. I won’t cover the whole thing but Apple “let slip” and “admitted” to slowing down old phones. This obviously feeds into the planned obsolescence conspiracies but at the time it wasn’t exactly hidden, Apple (one of their higher ups though I can’t think of who) said they were doing it.

The real issue was that it was implemented without transparency. The point is the device underclocks to prevent unexpected shut downs which makes it slower as a trade off for stability. Devices still do this, but it’s now shown in the settings and warns that the battery needs replacing.

The speed with which Mlem introduced the iOS 26 theming was very impressive and very well done!

It’s apps like Mlem that make browsing Lemmy a joy to me.

Get to her house, she’s asks you to run a 1 person train on her, no model trains in sight, confusion…

most people miss it

Well… shit. Can I reroll?

I know you’re joking but this is how a lot replies here feel. Kids don’t even know how to program using punch cards anymore smh.

40 years from now the newest generation will be saying “Grandpa doesn’t even know know what a Cyber Tibulator Strip is let alone how to use it. If you need him he’s out back yelling at clouds.”

Don’t get me wrong here, tech literacy is low but when has it not been?

If the death of Kirky thought me anything it’s that; even here, halfway across the world, the most seemingly sane of us will come out to mourn Trump and remember ‘the good things that he did’. Death is a convenient way to whitewash the hell out of terrible people and make them into martyrs.

You don’t snort a line of magnets before hitting the club? What a square.

This person Wojacks.

The Grand Poxfather loves all his children, no matter how many teeth!
