Idiotic? Lol

Do you have a better strategy?

otp , to News in Dr Disrespect Knowingly Sent Explicit Messages to a Minor, Former Twitch Employee Says

I lol'd

I think the true moral is that many "winners" tend to be assholes and/or scumbags.

otp , to Asklemmy in What’s the worst piece of technology you’ve ever owned?

Probably won't help, but I find that headsets sound much worse when they're connected as a headset. My (completely different headphones/headset) sounds a lot better in headphone mode.

otp , to Technology in Shopping app Temu is “dangerous malware,” spying on your texts, lawsuit claims

I don't believe his claims without evidence, but having a legit cover for nefarious acts is pretty standard, no?

otp , to Science Memes in No red circle. Not sure this one checks out.

See, I didn't get it at first because this is how I picture most of Arizona to look anyway. The visitor's center could've just been a historical camp/checkpoint along some gold or oil rush route or something! Lol

otp , to Science Memes in No red circle. Not sure this one checks out.

Yeah, especially if someone isn't just cross-posting to multiple communities.

Natural reposts by different users in different communities are healthy and expected, especially on defederated social media (if you can call Lemmy that). It's nobody's personal feed.

otp , to News in US Crime Rate Drops to ‘Historic’ Lows With Murders, Rapes, and Robbery Plunging, New Statistics Show

What do you mean? We need to get those numbers UP! It just means more and more criminals are getting away with their crimes.

Now is EXACTLY when we need to be tough on crime!

otp , to Ask Lemmy in What is the superior voting methodology? To whom does each alternative benefit

If the Canadian Liberals thought it'd win them more elections, they would've done an election reform years ago.

...like they'd initially promised.

otp , to Technology in Even Apple finally admits that 8GB RAM isn't enough

buy a new one.

Buy a new SSD and swap out the old one?

...buy a new SSD, right??

otp , to Asklemmy in FOSS programmers, what do you think of horrible people using your software?

Not exploitation? Addiction? Hatred?

otp , to News in New York’s Fat Beach Day gives plus-size people a space to be themselves

She had a podcast she'd promote saying things like it's ok to eat cake for breakfast if you want it

I mean, it is. I don't think eating cake for breakfast is so much worse than eating it after dinner.

I lost a lot of weight with basically calorie counting. I ate whatever I wanted until I hit my limit. If I wanted more, I'd do some exercise to burn off the extra calories.

It taught me a lot about portion sizes and nutrition though (entered everything into a nutrition app, not just calories).

But I'm pretty sure there were some occasions where I had some cake for breakfast, lol

(Also...a muffin, waffles, or pancakes and syrup for breakfast are probably no better than cake)

otp , to News in New York’s Fat Beach Day gives plus-size people a space to be themselves

I agree with what you've said here.

At the same time, encouraging obese people to go outside and get some exercise without worrying about how they look to others seems like something to encourage.

If they can go out to the beach and it wasn't so bad, maybe they can go out to the gym on another day.

This wouldn't happen for everyone, but if it helps a few people, then I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing.

otp , to Asklemmy in (Meta) So many questions here are not open ended. Does anyone care?

could we do something about this?

Downvote posts that don't generate good discussion.

Report posts that are flagrant rule breakers. (I report posts here that aren't actually questions, or bad faith statements that are only barely questions)

But more importantly...

UPVOTE the good posts!

And even more importantly...

POST the kind of content you want to see! Be the change you want to see. If you're just a commenter, you can't complain that there's no posts! Haha

otp , to News in ‘News deserts’: if local newspapers are dying, will local democracy die with them?

Real news, not to be confused with propaganda and misinformation, is readily available online to those with decent critical thinking skills

Propaganda and misinformation is also readily available online, disguised as real news, and is great at targeting people who think they have great critical thinking skills!
