And it’d be adorably digital-only

Never give Microsoft the benefit of the doubt.

This is the biggest problem with Valve at the moment. They’re awesome, but only because of the current leadership. Once these guys retire or die, it’s very likely Valve will enshittify like every other business.

Valve needs to be hit by regulators at some point. They just have too much market power.

In the future, Google will create a chatbot doppelganger of you and use it to recommend products to your friends and family.

It’s the least greasy browser that actually works with the modern web.

Brother that is a wild fucking story. Write that shit down and turn it into a Netflix true crime mini-series.

Don’t worry about channel creators losing money. It may seem like a dick move, but it’s the right thing to do. When channels see that they aren’t making money on Youtube ad revenue, they’ll be forced to either find another source of income (merch, patreon, alternate site, etc), or quit.

That’s better for you, them, and society as a whole since it reduces the power of a monopoly owned by an evil company.

Turns out that Reddit is a lot easier to quit than most people claim or realize. I still end up there from web searches occasionally, because some communities just don’t exist in lemmy (also lemmy frankly sucks as a place for finding niche communities due to fragmentation and shitty search tools). But besides that, there’s nothing particularly compelling about reddit anymore.

I wonder where people are going though? They’re definitely not coming here unless they’re an adult male technology/linux nerd.

When I deleted my reddit account many years ago, my productivity skyrocketed. It has now dipped considerably since I started using Lemmy, so I’ll probably stop doing that soon.

It’s not just the extra time you get from not using the site; there’s a very real effect on my ability to focus on tasks when I don’t have Reddit/Lemmy as an escape hatch.

I thought that losing my 10yo+ account would hurt, but it turned out that I didn’t give a shit.

It’s an earbud inserted into an ear piercing.

Damn lemmy really doesn’t like this lol

You’re telling me that when I hump a chicken breast from the supermarket that that counts as beastiality?! Wokeness has no limits smh.

Idk, I always wear deodorant so I don’t have enough data to compare.

Maybe you lack the body odor gene and that makes you sweaty when you use deodorant? Or maybe it’s a reaction to the specific brand you use?

Or my grandfather.

I suggested waking up earlier because I don’t know anything about your life/schedule. You’re the one who knows it best, and the one who knows where to find 15-30 minutes to do some exercises. Working two jobs is tough, but people do it all the time while still managing to fit exercise into their life.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to tell you what to do or shame you into working out. It’s your life and if you don’t want to work out, then that’s fine.

I just want to point out that when someone thinks they “dont have time” for working out, they’re wrong. It’s never about time. It’s like if someone told you they don’t have time to brush their teeth and shower every day because they work two jobs, need to walk their dog, and have a bad elbow. Would you take that justification seriously? Exercise is just another routine.

Wake up earlier and do it in the morning when you’re not tired, and don’t do knee exercises until it heals.

Exercise only works if you make it a routine/lifestyle, like brushing your teeth. It’s one of the few things in life that is all positives with zero downsides.

Weight lifting 3x per week. It feels good, and I’m too lazy for cardio.

English is the wokest language. In Spanish, all nouns are gendered. That means when Trump wanted to build a wall, he was actually being woke AF.

I don’t trust anyone who invented Javascript.
