Idk. The us population definitely isn’t aligned with the us government or vice versa.

Jokes aside, that’s pretty interesting. I didn’t know that’s where those terms came from

The US really is becoming a third world country by the day, isn’t it. God I hate it here

Not op, but I’d say it’s easy to guess why people care about numbers so much. Main reason is because it feels like making a statement and that feels good. It’s a tiny amount of effort for a bigger dopamine reward.

It’s just as easy to guess why people don’t care about them either. They don’t affect anything and can feel meaningless as a result. It just depends on the person

I’ve had them before. If you want to hide them, wear a jacket or sweater. It’s not a big deal anymore though. The only people that ever said anything was friends and family teasing a bit. I’d still have them if my body didn’t reject them so often, but that’s just something to do with me

I kinda thought that was how most small towns worked. We got a couple big factories that take up a big chunk of the workforce here. They have a huge amount of power in controlling the wages for the town, which is always worrying. They pay the highest, but it’s still not very high

At least it ruins their ability to advertise with r/place like they wanted to. At this point, making as much of reddit as useless as possible is the last way to make them listen

I put tor on a flash drive. It bypassed the schools website blocks, so I could go onto any website I wanted. I mainly just went to YouTube to listen to music while I worked. If I really felt like goofing off, I’d go to friv.com and play a bunch of flash games.

Of course a couple friends had me to go to a porn website, but we quickly realized it was awkward and not as fun to be horny when you couldn’t do anything about it.

Good. Technology always makes strides before the law can catch up. The issue with this is that multi million dollar companies use these gaps in the law to get away with legally gray and morally black actions all in the name of profits.

Edit: This video is the best way to educate yourself on why ai art and writing is bad when it steals from people like most ai programs currently do. I know it’s long, but it’s broken up into chapters if you can’t watch the whole thing.

Okay, so I’ve been here for a few days and I’m getting increasingly confused. I used reddit exclusively on mobile and was hoping to do the same thing for lemmy. But it seems like every app has major features missing. I’ve already tried 4 different apps and every one is missing a feature I’d consider critical. Keeping two accounts separate, adjusting settings for two different accounts, commenting, replying, posting, subscribing, and searching for specific instances are all pretty important, but every app is missing one or more of these features.

Is there a quickstart guide anywhere to get more familiar with this? Does anyone know of an app that can do all of this? I’ve already tried jerboa, summit, connect, and liftoff
