Seems like a very mean spirited and spiteful person would have their day made by other people having problems.

I half agree but also I think with every extra step reddit takes like banning people for upvoting posts that mention Luigi we see more people interested in a freer alternative.

What lemmy needs is some new use cases reddit doesn’t have, I’ve been thinking about making an adversary debate platform that basically just offers a different format to a thread designed to make understanding events easier. Also I want to try making gamified chat modes where the main image is altered based on agreement or disagreement in the thread, basically an info graphic of the thread.

I’d love to make some game experiences on it too, I was thinking of a similar collaborative experience where user interactions in the thread alter the main image gameboard - would be great to use the existing floss infrastructure to make something open and fun.

This is stupid, what’s the point if you can’t fire all thirty at once?

Yeah I got it here in England for my budget school uniform, for requiring free achool.meals, for my shoes, for a dozen other signs of poverty…

I love that america tackles it’s own social issues and hate that Brits and other Europeans do nothing but snarky attacks on America as a way of denying our own issues and pretending america is uniquely bad.

That sounds like a job for ai

I’ve been meaning to try this, I’ll give the new version a go

People still repeating this is a real proof no amount of facts or access to information matters if the lie is a fun one that fits your existing biases

That’s really cool, I’m going to have to get one to play with.

I understand what you said, I also understand it’s stupid.

I’m indigenous too so that doesn’t win the argument by shocking me into the stunned silence you hoped.

Why should I think your current racist mindset is acceptable? And if you think racist mindsets are correct then what do you even have against the colonial era brits?

And of course brit isnt a race, are you one of these racists that tries to ignore the actual definition and common usage of the word racism to excuse your racist ideology?

Wow you’ve really brought into the racist mindset and amplified it to genuinely insane levels, I’m actually impressed!

Please tell me you think you’re left wing?

Racists make this argument so often it’s tiresome, ‘Jewish isn’t a religion’ always comes from the same idiots who say ‘this person cant be trusted because they’re a Jew, look their great grandmother was Jewish!’

And ‘I’m not a racist, just a bigot!’ What’s even the point?

Oh and interesting side fact, bigot likely comes from the phrase ‘by god’ which was often used by religious hypocrites and became a byword for intensely religious hypocrites. It came into English during conflict between protestants and catholics - suggesting racism is a sub category of bigotry implies acceptance of the modern meaning derived through common use over time… which is what you’re trying to reject for the word antisemitism, kinda seems then that it’s not a honest approach you’re taking but have brought into logic from racists who are trying to find semantic cover for their hatred of a group of people based on traits they believe are biologically innate in that group.

Yeah he was fun for his time but is painfully out dated now

Your desire to protect antisemites is certainly an interesting choice of things to devote energy to but I don’t think they’ll care about your careful semantics when they’re choosing who to hate - you really think they only hate practicing jews? They hate anyone with Jewish ancestry, Roald was talking about a born predisposition not about some aspect of the Jewish religion.

In don’t know if you’re bending over backwards because to protect a childhood icon of yours or because you’ve got so wrapped up in the Palestine situation you’ve been befriending antisemites and telling yourself it’s OK but you really are making shitty arguments that have been made by a million racists already

Does history not exist to you? You really can’t understand? Or do you say something so stupid because you think it serves some purpose?

I don’t really understand why you’d do this, either you want a retro experience or not? There’s millions of ways to get a better visual experience so why would you modify classic hardware?

It’s really hard writing software and knowing every bit of it then seeing it as a new user to write docs.

I’ve recently gone back to using reddit regularly because it’s the only place with sensible news, lemmy is such a bubble it’s a terrible place to get opinions and ideas from.

Latchkey kids of the 21century have it worse than the originals, parents not there for them but now they’re also helicopter parents spying on them and controlling their actions remotely. I guess we should call them drone parents.

I bet you’d get upset if someone pruned your trashy videogsme collection.

Is it really so hard just to let people enjoy what they enjoy without being a dick about it?
