I’ve pulled one of those wireless trimmers apart when it quit working. I found a rechargeable AA battery soldered in there.

It would be news, and even harder to believe as real news.

Yeah, I’m having trouble seeing this as real news.

Signal with 2 people who actually moved there with me, standard messages app that came with Samsung for most people, and Facebook Messenger Lite for anything that works better there, or contacting people who I’m not close enough with to get their phone number.

Oh man, so many awesomely awful jokes came in this format. Best source of dad jokes around, I miss that meme

I think if a thing like Place were made for Lemmy, it would need to be so different to fit the values of the Fediverse that it would need a new name. Different rules, different way of interaction, different output.

I use it kind of like WD-40 in a farm setting. It’s messy, but not as messy as grease. It’s effective to coat things that constantly wear and have started to rust. I also rub it on my leather boots to waterproof it for cheap.

I had no idea it existed before the API changes were announced.

All these old memes and the excitement around them have showed me that this is indeed a corner of the internet where I fit in. Hello my people!

RIP Vine.
I laughed so hard when Darius posted this one

Wook at all those chickens!

I agree. A few bigger updates here and there about what’s going on, but not constant reposts to where Lemmy starts looking like Reddit.

Google, duck duck go when I don’t want to see ads for days based on what I’m searching, Bing and Perplexity when I want to avoid doing a series of searches to learn something.

I don’t understand why either of these symbols were thought to belong on this particular button.

I mean, it’s only fair.

Yes.

This mod seems familiar. They may be the offending party behind my worst experience on Reddit, and the only mod I ever blocked.

Handed me a temporary ban for responding to a post written to the wrong sub. They didn’t have time to write out a redirect link to copy and paste for lost redditors, but did have time to mark me as trouble and berate me when I suggested redirecting users. Since a temporary ban “wasn’t enough,” they gave a longer ban so I would “learn my lesson.”

Really put a damper on my whole reddit experience.

Is it a benign “attack” to point out the weakness to get enough attention that it gets fixed?
