Completely agreed!

Maybe joking about the situation.

A parasite, you say?

This guy from Peewee’s Big Adventure. I figure because of a bit of resemblance to Vance.

I guess a weak jobs report here is also part of it?

If you can stand a bit more, the show does become a lot more than what those first few episodes imply.

Maybe I can help!

It’s very small by land area, but it’s 18th largest in population. That’s not large, large, but it’s also not a smaller state.

Agreed all on your second paragraph. Thankfully, at least, there’s a step in the right direction happening, belated and incomplete though it may be.

But… It’s your post taking about negativity, so you’re saying your post about negativity on Lemmy is evidence of negativity on Lemmy? Or the fact the current vote count is negative?

Huh. Maybe it’s the communities/posts I’ve visited but I wouldn’t agree with your assessment of an inherent negativity/hatefulness. Do you have examples we can discuss?

The Glass Menagerie. Introduction of sad, boring characters. Nothing happens. The end.

She must be a graduate!

Fuck yeah. What’s your preferred place to get from? Johnnies is the one I’m most familiar with and enjoy.

Beeper Mini, I can agree the reason for existing is stupid. Not Beeper as a whole. I greatly like having a one stop shop for all of my messaging platforms. It’s a straight up fucking pain in the ass to have Messages, Messenger, Whatsapp, Discord, Telegram, LinkedIn, and more all having their own specific applications with separate lists of people in them. Gaim/Pidgin/Trillian/Adium had the right idea back in the day and if it isn’t done at an application level like Beeper, then I would really like it done at an OS level where all apps of a communication/chat type have their notifications and interactivity bundled. There’s going to be platform exclusive features that don’t have parity that wouldn’t be able to be part through or presented the same, but communications are such a base level function of these devices and the generally one-application-at-a-time type of display of phones makes the balkanization of communication mediums even more annoying.

It’s interesting you mention Apple because while I have every expectation that you’re correct at the moment, the iPod absolutely benefited from piracy. iTunes allowed you to add your own songs to your library to sync with the device, and iTunes could also be argued to have been on a similar model to Steam because you’d pay to ‘own’ the songs and there was no subscription giving you access to songs.
