I can manage to skip FB altogether, but 99% of my friends and family are on Messenger

Libre Office then?

True

Definitely feels emptier than it was a few months earlier, but so far I enjoy the “I’m not just a pawn in an ocean of users” feel that Lemmy gives vs Reddit

Oh that’s one movie I would love to watch.

If you have more than two streaming services it now cost more than cable.

We’ve come full circle, guys!

Much like GIFs, MP3s will never go away.

Sure there are better alternatives, but widespread adoption over decades now is hard to gloss over.

I remember buying concert tickets for me and my gf for under $20. For both.

Fuck Ticketmaster.

omg who the fuck cares. please stop posting Elon being Elon.

I don’t believe this

Please God no. I cannot fathom how people manage to hear my real voice.

I sound so much better inside my skull

Sid Meier’s Civilisation. Got me hooked like what I imagine crack cocaine and meth would do to you.

As much as I would love that to happen, this is basically a death wish

What now? Will he be replaced by one of Putin’s token? Seems like his men were respecting him

YES PLEASE. I fucking swear it genuinely feels like about 15% of the posts here are about Elon.

People need to ignore this prick and move on with their lives

That’s the way I see it as well. And probably why we don’t see that metric often. GDP is more an accurate indicator of financial stability / purchasing power (although also flawed)

If that comforts you, the debt per capita index is pretty much meaningless without any other external factorSwitzerland has one of the worst debt per capita and isn’t a poor country by any means.

The USA also owes over 16T To other countries

Many people pointed this out in the link but yeah, it’s much harder to make edits / entries in wikipedia nowadays.

The rules are more strict and you have to respect an increasing number of rules, etc.

I remember when Wikipedia started to get some steam, it was basically a text editor with very basic hyperlink-style formatting.

Minor changes / typos are still easy to do, but frankly I wouldn’t know how to start anymore if I wanted to create a new entry.

I personally post relevant information to the communities I’ve created and moderate, but I’m not here to be an entertainer. I get a handful of upvotes so I guess it’s useful to some people.

If Reddit fucks up even more I might have a bigger role, but so far it pretty feels like that Milhouse GIF playing frisbee with himself, and I’m sort of okay with that.

They would have never done this to a larger manufacturer, but since the prototype was a passion project by two tech enthusiasts they simply did not care at all. It’s frankly disgusting.
