The purpose of government agencies is to create and enforce laws like this. They shouldn't be (just) sueing, they should be commanding the power of the law itself to regulate businesses through legislation, enacting crippling fines and exerting control to outright disallow and directly control and prevent this type of thing from happening at all in any area of their jurisdiction.

Oh what's that, you union busted? With MERCENARIES???! All company officers, go directly to federal prison and each personally pay 15x yearly salary+benefits value. Your company must now figure out who to hire into those roles and now do so under the watchful long dick of the law.

No more of this fucking around cost of doing business stuff. Demolish the leaders and the behavior, and "chill" the people thinking about doing the same.

True, but it is also especially upsetting when something is super fucked up and damages us all and the solution is blocked by widespread apathy, complacent consent, and willful ignorance and malice.

I hadn't even thought to tap and hold on the thumbnail. Download image and link both seem to download the same file as the one that opens normally, so that worked, thank you very much!

Are there any exclamations I can make to express annoyed shock that aren't genital related, religion related, or slurs?

[INSERT THAT HERE] 🙄

How do I save images in the chrome app on Android?

Also, how do I get it to let me pinch zoom?

I mean, let's be real: it's a silly joke and I remember that episode. But, many influences, including ZP and TB have explained why desktop isn't so much a master race, but rather the platform that can do it all, better, because it's the only one that you can seriously upgrade, is fully modular, and is doing fully multi purpose. Pcmr people spend way more money on their pc because you CAN get all these things, and they WANT to. And, you don't have to buy the same games over and over.

I dunno, master race is obviously tongue in check, but it's definitely my primary and home platform because of these benefits and many more.

It's directly attacking twitter and eee fediverse.

Strongly against.

I think there's two definitions, in priority order:

  1. the most accessible side that you're most likely to get in on, the side that's facing you, or
  2. if there's no walls and the bed is in the middle of a ballroom or floating in space, the head of the bed.

50k very active users that try to have integrity is a pretty big deal. Because with that will come development of the platform, meanwhile Reddit is going to struggle with a new chapter of shitty moderation and decreased quality. There are also a lot of people burnt out on the issue and so I expect real numbers from the immediate to be more visible over the next month or two.

Plus, which instances are you looking at for those numbers? Are all the lemmy instances and kbin included in those numbers?

Let's just assume that it's going to be about 1% of reddit's userbase. Does it matter which 1%? How will the platforms evolve? Because both are very different now than before, we're seeing realtime changes across a lot of tech and the internet. A lot of faith was lost by the public in many platforms by the people at all paying attention, and a lot of hope was garnished by the successful move to new platforms.

Stuff is definitely changing. I'm curious what big tech is gonna do to try to restore faith, or if they'll try to pretend nothing's happened and try to sweep it under the rug. A lot of people already try to downplay the events into just numbers, but in reality, there are a LOT of eyes watching and waiting to see what happens. People are tired of the same old capitalist bullshit and want something better, it isn't just ex/reddittors, it's Twitter users, Linux users, Amazon users, Netflix users, students with debt, homeowners, and a LOT of young people. People want better and the messed up economic future is making people pay attention more than ever.

It's all interwoven and something's gotta give.

Lol did you do it on cd, some device, or during a lan ^.^

I still have folders on my hdds that have migrated from very old hdds that are like "xxxPersonNames music" that we used to just copy during our small lans around 2003. I gotta check now to see if I have any old ocremix files in there from around that time. I bet I do...
