that’s one way to get a leg up

yeah makes sense

I understand it’s easier for you just to use a card, so you don’t think it’s necessary, but it’s probably a good idea to carry a few euros at least

you know you could afford way more nice stuff like avocados and macadamia nuts and fresh veggies if you cut down on drug spending

He hated twitter for how effective it was in spreading awareness on progressive issues. Him and all the other billionaires want that platform split up, and it only costs him $44b, a fraction of his net worth.

Neither, portals aren’t real

It may be hypocritical, but have you considered that all of these forms of entertainment are unhealthy? The only difference is that they get more and more efficient with each generation, causing increasing levels of concern from each generation. That’s indicative of a rising trend

The fact that people have been concerned about this for generations doesn’t automatically nullify the point. Attention and focus are skills which children must develop through boredom and long-form focus. TikTok brain is making that harder and harder for children to learn.

Musk is intentionally killing twitter confirmed. First he tried to tank its value and retract his buy offer but was forced in to the purchase by the SEC. So now he’s just playing the long game by killing it step by step with his own hands.

i too am feeling psychologically unfulfilled

I have a habit of scrolling during downtime during the day but I don’t have an attachment to lemmy specifically. One thing I like about this app is how mundane a lot of the posts seem, it’s not overly exciting and doesn’t cause tiktok-style dopamine addiction.

All forms of social media could be argued as being addictive to some degree but lemmy IMO is relatively harmless. Though there is something to be said about rage farming, many of the posts seem to be negative or anger-inducing in some way, but it’s not bad compared to many other platforms. And of course there is the ability to filter your feed by blocking certain communities but the personalization in that regard isn’t as good as reddit was.

oh yeah I misread York as New York. which would have made sense since vikings are known to have been present in newfoundland area (i think)

also, fix your diet

im gonna wait at least several months until it goes on sale. and that way all the good mods will have already been developed

don’t buy launch day, and don’t pay full price, wait for reviews

Murder is bad, but humans are the problem. And humans being stupid chaotic creatures, it often devolves in to dirty things like killing. You can say all you want about right and wrong but this is a messy situation and this is the solution they have been forced in to using, after trying the peaceful method for years

shark fin stew, mmm one of my favorites!

i mean if you think about it godzilla is just ancient mythology except not ancient

in other words its a perfect name

its gonna be so completely average

I get this problem too! But I never thought it was Firefox. That could definitely be the culprit but like others said it’s probably interfering apps or cookies or other data

they just put the scarf vertical

some people say the party divide in the US is based on gender. which may be true to some degree but really I think the true divide is intelligence

republicans have literally just become the stupid party
