fl42v@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Netflix's Adolescence Is a Trojan Horse for Online Censorship and SurveillanceEnglish1·7 months agoYou sure? To me some of the other options look more convenient, so to say, especially if you tend to watch stuff while away from home :)
As a Russian, fuck those assholes and the shithole they’re operating.

Huh, who knew
Riiiiight, a chromium fork with questionable crypyo and a history of even more questionable decisions (referral scam or not blocking all the trackers, for example) is better than a non-chromium non-fork with no crypto and a history of questionable decisions.
fl42v@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Designed by men, for men: Why sex with robots does not have appeal among womenEnglish5·8 months agoIirc, traffic lights are called robots in some African English dialects. Although it’s more like one of those regional peculiarities.
fl42v@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Designed by men, for men: Why sex with robots does not have appeal among womenEnglish6·8 months agoTo me it looks more like they’re saying they’ll monetize their work no matter what, tho. One way is through direct payments by those who consider their articles worth paying for, then they don’t need to sell userdata or show ads; the other way is selling userdata. Well, there’s also non-targeted advertising, but mb it doesn’t worth as much or something (and targeted ads already pay close to nothing from a single viewer, afaik).
Where I personally draw the line is when such subscriptions still include ads (looking at you, “ad-free” disney+) or have unnecessarily large costs and so on. I mean, if they charge close to what they’re making with ads and selling data, we could get most websites ~tracker-free for probably a couple of bucks a month each. This, in turn, lessens the power of ad network owners, which again makes the web better. Although, mb I’m idealizing too much, idk.
fl42v@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Designed by men, for men: Why sex with robots does not have appeal among womenEnglish310·8 months agoIdk what’s the big deal, honestly. Remember the memes about yt premium, “I either give you my money, or my data, but not both”? Well, it’s kinda like that. The caveat is, their payment provider likely still collects data, and some info is saved on the backend anyways, but that’s another can of worms.

fl42v@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Maybe Lemmy can forcibly invent a new term for "ricing". (Good faith pls)11·9 months agoeat so much rice they even run their cars on it
So what exactly? It’s just a stereotype. A stereotypical Russian (that’s where I’m from) would be a gopnik babooshka in abibas riding a bear while playing a balalayka and drinking vodka… And guess what? We find it funny. Well, maybe except babooshkas: many find it weird you stress the “oo” syllable instead of the 1st ‘a’. It’d be the same with black guys and rap music or Texans and guns.
would you defend the n-word
If it originated as a stereotype, stopped being used offensively several decades ago, and was then repurposed into being a praise of sorts.
fl42v@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Maybe Lemmy can forcibly invent a new term for "ricing". (Good faith pls)1·9 months agoAllrighty, so here’s the comment: https://lemmy.ml/comment/16077970 Granted, not exactly how I phrased it at times, but the gist still stands.
body modifications
Citation needed, as they say. I only saw car bodies being modded.
your racism
Bold of you to assume I have smth against groups of ppl based on their race because I’m not into your* guilt complex about your* ancestors inventing X phrases and abusing Y groups of ppl.
Not trying to “worm out”, and still stand on the form being inferior to the meaning; just pointing out a commonly used coinword with the exact meaning ppl are looking for, 'cause at this point I’m inclined to see the world freeze.
* not necessarily yours in particular, just an assumption you’re from the US
fl42v@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Maybe Lemmy can forcibly invent a new term for "ricing". (Good faith pls)1·9 months agoI’m telling you the post explicitly asked about opinions, and the “wrong” ones that used the “r-word” happened to be blocked, and there is a comment from another mod that explicitly tells they’ll remove stuff using that. Although it’s a reasonably short comment that’s easily blocked from view with a medium-sized justice boner, so it’s understandable you’ve missed it.
Although, you’re somewhat right, the meaning of a slur was a bit off in my vocabulary. I’d still argue it isn’t one in context ('cause it neither refers to a person nor is it derogatory in its current form)… However, I’d also like to play along and give you folks another (and, arguably, a more worthy) which hunt target – chinesium. You know, currently a derogatory, currently refers to a particular nation, so…
fl42v@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Maybe Lemmy can forcibly invent a new term for "ricing". (Good faith pls)1·9 months agoThe “r-word” in question refers to the being food discussed (although it’s not really a discussion, given we have the correct opinion and “your comment is getting deleted” opinion) in the post, since we’re apparently deleting comments for using it now. Hence the quotation marks.
As for the 1st paragraph, (a) i’m arguing it’s nowhere like using the n-word at all, and (b) it was said by the Asian dude, so I don’t see how so.
fl42v@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Maybe Lemmy can forcibly invent a new term for "ricing". (Good faith pls)38·9 months agoShould they’ve included a selfie or an id pic? Because when black ppl use that n-word you’re trying to draw parallels with (which, BTW, is still a derogatory towards a person and has no other meanings, as far as I’m aware) nobody gets offended. And, aside from the use of the “r-word”, their comment was a valid opinion on topic asking for that opinion
Innovative as always, I see.
