I’m actually planning to move my retirement into a money market because of the bubble and stock prices ballooning at a speed that just makes me anxious.

I’m waiting until the new year, though, so as not to miss dividends and because Christmas is coming, and with it, likely elevated spending in the US economy.

But I fully expect it to burst and think it’ll be uglier than 2000.

And everyone else is the asshole for wanting you to control your petulant, loud, germy, and annoying little bundle of joy.

Hypocrisy about civility aside, the VP publicly endorsing reporting on one’s neighbors and thought policing is yet another literal page out of the Nazi playbook.

Lots of people have procreated that really shouldn’t have, unfortunately.

Nice.

The cheating bastards need to git gud.

I don’t think screening is the answer, but with Roblox and Discord, the follow-up on reports of predators is lacking and should be punished severely by the courts. I don’t care if your profits go down a percentage point or two, you need to improve your product.

Nice! Fore it’s been about 70% of my library that’s worked, so it’s an unfortunate necessity.

Same. I run a dual-boot with Linux Mint, but have a windows installation for gaming. I do 99% of my computing on Linux now.

I actually like that Mastodon is more manual. Keeps things less combative overall.

LOL no.

Yeah, people have been arguing about it for at least the last three years, since the first big twitter migration.

Everyone just kind of ignored that you could screenshot a post and reply to it already.

They’re certainly trying.

And the weird-ass bugs are popping up all over the place because they apparently laid off their QA people.

A few weeks ago my Pixel wished me a Happy Birthday when I woke up, and it definitely was not my birthday. Google is definitely letting a shitty LLM write code for it now, but the important thing is they’re bypassing human validation.

Stupid. Just stupid.

No.

It’s good when bad things happen to bad people. It’s better when bad people kick the bucket.

Because Lemmy is moderated by human beings.

Also, fun fact, but according to his own public statements Osama Bin Laden was radicalized by the Reagan’s sanctions and their effects on Iraq. (ie, mass starvation)

I feel this meme so hard.

I don’t hate anyone, but I do hate EVERYONE.

Thank you for your heroism, essential worker.

Yeah, sorry OP.

Racism has always and will always be a part of America’s identity. I’d go so far as to say I think it’s part of human nature, given how pervasive and common it’s been throughout all of human history.

Buying goods now, tradable on the black market later, may be helpful

This is a good point. Buying goods in bulk is a guaranteed return on investment and how you protect yourself (somewhat) against inflation for things you know you will need.
