It’s Joe Biden, he’s using her iPad.

It is wholesome. A family in the film even stops to watch the miracle of life.

I’m in Europe, where american football isn’t a thing

In 2024, three NFL games were played in London, one in Germany. In 2025 scheduled games include the same plus a game in Madrid and Dublin.

So it is “a thing”, but not caring about it is understandable.

Sure, but even if TikTok sold it wouldn’t solve the problem. Hell them not selling also doesn’t solve the problem.

The problem is that data is gobbled up and sold. Data/privacy protection laws to stop that would be useful.

So technically you’re right, but the law they passed left a HUGE loophole. And by loophole I mean just don’t be based on those counties and you can gobble up whatever data you like.

Meat Grapes? Why doesn’t it sound like that when I say it.

Based on https://www.theverge.com/2024/11/14/24296537/bluesky-acting-up-outage-down it was down for 15-30 minutes and for some it was just read-only.

Lemmy instances regularly go down for maintenance longer than this.

Twitter used to regularly “fail whale” and in the long run no one cares.

Yes, decentralizing is a good thing. Yes, it’s fun to poke at BlueSky. But in the long run if you have a product that people want to use then they’ll put up with a lot of crap/downtime.

As long as you give people choice you don’t have to worry about change.

Look at Reddit. If they hadn’t killed the API myself and many others would still be there. I used Reddit is Fun for 10+ years. Reddit made hundreds of changes, many of them stupid, but I didn’t care because no matter how many changes they made I could choose to ignore them and use the exact same client/UI I had been using.

Also Lemmy and Mastodon have plenty of good UIs in the form of apps. If you want to change the default UI I say go for it, just provide the old one. If you don’t want to maintain the old one, don’t. Just give folks to the option to maintain it.

Damn. I assumed you could just pay to win. I’m pretty sure white goes first.

Just pick a religion that has respawns, duh.

Link: The Faces of Evil, for the Philips CDi.

Considered one of the worst games ever.

That’s the thing, I don’t think the mechanism exists (or works) yet. I’m confident it will someday, but I didn’t think it worked yet.

Unless I’m mistaken, none of those will block server-side ads.

Big Carl vibes.

You mean poop in interesting unknown locations I, an adult, can poop in locations way more interesting than any animal or child.

I just want to second the dirty gin martini.

I’ve never been a fan of the martini, but dirty gin is excellent.

Genuinely when was the last time you watched The Simpsons?

I’m not going to pretend that the current seasons are as good as the “golden age” that top out around season 10 or so, but to say the current seasons aren’t worth watching is incorrect. The Simpsons continues to tell fun stories and funny jokes.

The Simpsons film was also great and I would be happy to see a sequel.

In the 1994 Disney classic “Return of Jafar” the thief who finds genie Jafar wishes for treasure so Jafar transports him to a sunken pirate ship full of treasure where he nearly drowns and I think is almost eaten by a shark.

So your can twist literal. In this case I did the same. Lawyered.

Twist: Payment is on the form of a text or other short note telling you something memorable they saw, a relative, a friend, a flower, a tree, a cat, a dog, the list goes on. The emotional impact of these notes cause you to weep. Your heart grows. You can’t stop crying. Dehydration sets in. That growth on your heart, it’s a tumor. You die. It looks like the Joker killed you. Genie always wins.

As a white guy I learned this from music,

Uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, cinco, seis.
