I consider Israel as the new Nazi-Germany but then in Modern Times. Everything they say and do aligns with the Nazi ideology.

Especially their government, political people and their voters.

Can’t speak for others but I take few day-old accounts and their opinions with a grain of salt. Often it happens that it is just a troll to bait other people.

This really reminds me of “Brave New World”, kind of scary actually.

No, not really. An account/ profile is just that. An account to use to interact with said platform.

Especially on centralized platforms like Reddit, Instagram and such. It just means nothing. Your “karma” on Reddit means nothing, can be manipulated etc. Account can be banned for no reason. Similar on any other platform.

Neither do I use any of these platforms for friends. I keep the accounts private from my usual real life. If I want to keep in touch with someone, it’ll usually be through WhatsApp.

If I lose for example the Reddit or Instagram account. That’s okay. Sucks but okay. These platforms are filled with trash and moderated by trash (including the actual CEOs).

I never really cared about professional sports and probably never will. Everything of it is overpriced and more often than not the fans of any party are insufferable/ extreme. Hooligans and stuff like that.

I once started watching LoL eSports (G2 mostly) and even then I found the fans of any club extreme.

Not true but it seems you love to go off-topic and use whataboutism and therefore I will just block you. That way I don’t have to see your pro-genocide and anti-protesting nonsense.

Do those protesting for Gaza also protest about Sudan, Yemen, Rohingya, West Sahara, Yezidis, Uyghurs, Christians in Nigeria, Kurds, and so on?

Whenever I read this, I roll my eyes. This is one of the most ridiculous arguments.

You have to start somewhere and you can’t put your focus on everything. Plus your argument is a method to move the topic to “do you/they this and this and this and that?” Instead of the actual on-topic.

The hostility has been here for quite a while, though. When the migrating happened from Reddit to Lemmy it was all nice and cozy but after a year or so the hostility was already there. Very often people did not want to acknowledge this (and started to heavily downvote the particular comment stating this). Plus with what is happening* in the world, the negativity from reality seeps into the digital world.

But anyway, the best thing to do is just block anyone who is hostile towards you for no actual reason. Has no point to put energy and/ or time in it.

Wish we could upload videos, I recorded this exact same issue a few days ago with Spotify. I use a modded Spotify and curious to the updates. Thus I checked their App Store and this what’s been spammed on their App Store page;

“We are continuously busy making Spotify much better! Don’t want to miss anything? Make sure you have automatic updates on!”

Though it has a developer account upfront cost to access.

No, not entirely true (luckily). You can use SideStore or AltStore to sideload at least 3 apps freely. The “downside” is you have to refresh every 7 days.

The good side is; SideStore + LiveContainer allows for unlimited apps to sideload and there’s a shortcut to auto-refresh apps each day (so no worries about expiring apps).

However, it is true for most convenience, Apple developer certificate is still the best and usually costs €6-20 euro through third party seller (for one year).

Apollo, the app right?

How Have You Personally Dealt With The Loss of Apollo?

I did not, I just sideloaded Apollo and still am using the app.

Hope you’re doing better now.

Yeah, definitely. Got my bachelor degree in Finance and currently having a immensely relaxing but boring job (which is alright, bit of a relax after years of studying). Just having this as my first Finance job while searching for another better one.

Honestly though, I know it sounds really mean and rude but: I’m truly satisfied seeing them having less good than me.

• One works at McDonalds and served my order 6 years ago and complained how he got ‘‘fucked over’’ by the teachers which he blames for not being able to continue studies.
• One went to jail for a 6-12 months.
• Another guy always acted smart and tried to put me down when we were 13-15. He did not entirely finished his studies, works retail and ended up jobless because the company went bankrupt (probably now having another retail job with a meh-salary).

From what I have heard here and there many of them never got their Bachelor degree. We all come from a ‘‘practical’’ school (teenagers who could not or did not want to actually study). I worked my ass off to actually climb the ‘‘study-stairs’’ and got the Bachelor degree and might go for Masters (Chartered Controller, Public Chartered Controller or Accountancy).

• Important note 1: I’m not saying that working in retail is bad. However, it does feel satisfying seen bullies serving my orders.
• Important note 2: English is not my native language, so some sentences or words might be worded a bit odd.

Growing up for me, the popular kids were actually also usually intelligent and got into good universities. So the stereotype of popular kids being dumb really doesn’t ring true everywhere.

Unfortunately to hear, I at least hope you are also doing better now. Honestly, fuck them. They might be ‘‘smart’’ or having a ‘good job’ but believe me, some parts of their live are quite shit. People always try to show-off their ‘‘good side’’ and hide their bad sides.

No, I was not and unfortunately was often picked to be bullied until I raged and went to his throat to close it (English isn’t my native language so don’t know to explain it otherwise).

After that no bullying but wasn’t popular either. However, fun fact; no one who was popular at that time succeeded it life. They didn’t really went far either education and some even went to jail.

And myself? I got myself from a practical school to now having bachelor degree. So, fuck them.

And that’s why, sir, Massgrave exists.

Yeah, I’m aiming for the NC. I pretty much permanently wear AirPods when I’m outside because it helps against loud noises, avoids Hyperacusis and keeps Tinnitus at a minimum.

Man, I tell you, Apple service is really great (unless I was unlucky and lucky at the same time?).

I had like 4-5 times the cracking issue and each time they changed them for free even out of warranty. The employee told me something along lines of “you have the issue and so we will replace the AirPods Pro besides, there’s a law that a company needs to give a ‘decent product’ to its costumer. Even if out of warranty”.

Personally, I think the person stretched that rule far since it was out of warranty for like a year or one and a half year already. Still thankful.

Really debating to finally upgrade from the original AirPods Pro to the AirPods Pro 3.

Anyone read other books of his and if so, do you recommend them?

Thanks, going to try out LibreOffice. Does it has same (or similar) functions as Word itself?
