If you haven’t confronted them about it, yes. If you have, and they are aware of how you feel, you’re pretty much free to do whatever you want imo, if they’re still trying to play nice after the fact, that’s on them. Stay aloof, and cut ties with them presumably when you’re older and you can.

Kevin Rose is one of the co-founders of Digg, and Alexis Ohanian is one of the co-founders of Reddit. Considering the “success” of both sites it could be a big deal, but more than likely it’ll just try to pass itself off as a Reddit alternative that’ll eventually go to shit or implement a bunch of AI and crypto bullshit.

I was curious when I was hearing the police chatter saying the suspect was wearing a “cream-coloured” jacket, when in the assassination footage it’s pretty undeniably black or a dark colour at least.

Post what you want, comment on everything, make your own community, etc etc etc

I see this all the time like some kind of catch-all for complaints about how effectively dead this platform is.

Not everyone is cutout to pioneer any kind of community, let’s just assume that OP takes this advice to heart, if their interest/hobby is niche enough, what’s even the likelihood of someone else tumbling upon it? Let alone contributing. Maybe this hypothetical other person wants to contribute but they see that it’s only one other person posting anything and they figure, “what’s the point?” Maybe they don’t agree with OP’s opinions and would rather find another “community” where their opinions won’t be contested even if it doesn’t exist. There are a myriad of reasons why, this is going to happen with every channel, fandom, interest group, etc. it’s a natural part of the process. The problem lies in the simple fact that there’s fucking no one here, there are enough bodies to come and stay and go and continue the cycle until a community is established.

Yes, there are plenty of channels or w/e they’re called here, but most of them are effectively islands in a sea of shit you don’t care about (or bots.) They’re not managed, and there’s nothing going on in them. Why is it up to you the user to stop what you’re doing and make something out of nothing? When there are already communities that do exist on other platforms, even if said platforms are trash like Reddit or Xitter are. The majority of users in large communities are lurkers, they might not actively contribute, but they do share content with their own friends or interest groups and that is what’s more likely to bring people in, those people might be people that do end up contributing, or they might be more lurkers. But it feeds into the growth of the community either way.

Most of Lemmy doesn’t have any of that though, because there’s no one here.

Wth is this article, the ring is being made in celebration of them as a watch company. It’s a cute little gimmicky ring because making an anniversary watch is exactly what people expect them to do.

They didn’t make a ring to compete with the Oura or Samsung’s whatever. The article even mentions the Timex ring watch which was similarly made because they’re celebrating 170 years of being in the business. Why even bring up smart rings/watches at all?

It depends, a lot of the time, most cleaning products have that shitty “lemon” smell that fucking sucks, where it’s obviously only masking a more unpleasant smell even if the unpleasant smell is just the actual cleaning product. That usually means it’s even worse when there really is a foul odor present, cause then it smells like shit and lemon.

it should just be, big button for power on and off, and another button for mode/cycle.

For a single piece sure.

I presume the idea here is that you have access to their full library. Personally, I fail to see why I would change my wallpaper enough to warrant even a free app to change it, let alone 50 bucks.

well no wonder you have to shit, why are you ordering burritos at Taco Bell?

speaking of which, what’s a good way to keep all my drivers updated? I feel like I’ve been slacking on that.

this looks like a shittier, less comfortable version of those handheld trackballs from the early 2000s.

-Core is the new term for just aesthetics, and I think that’s much more fitting over punk. Though in the case of steampunk, it’s one of the oldest -punks so getting people to swap over to steamcore or something would probably be met with a lot of opposition.

My reaction as well, I’ve only known him through his statue.

“Don’t be evil”

Shit writes itself.

I remember it being convenient for getting screenshots off it to pc quickly, but I don’t know if there’s a better method of doing so. I rarely, if ever, use the share function to begin with.

the problem is companies have weaponised complacency, there’s too many people that don’t care and that’s why they keep getting away with it. do it enough times and people will begin to think it’s inevitable and just put up with it.
