Oh yeah, he’s a massive chunk of the reason that almost everything is as fucked today as it is, I just think trying to pick a singular villain to blame any thing this big on ignores the systemic issues spanning decades that enables this

Who’s the bowl cut guy on the right? I recognize everyone but him (sadly)

Also damn, did not know about Confucius

Ehhh that’s kind of a stretch. Blaming all the shit in the middle east on one person or country really ignores the century+ of bullshit western powers enacted on that region

I think it’s medical and insulting use are obsolete lmao

Blasphemy!

I believe the accept term is “communities” rather than sublemmies

Mostly to differentiate us from Reddit and because the name “subreddit” is based off how reddit used to be one big homepage just called Reddit before splitting into multiple “sub-reddits”

I liked them resolving Kiff and Amy’s kids, mostly cause Amy is a strong enough character to hold her own episodes. I can’t think of any other call backs I enjoyed though

It was delayed cause Jon DiMaggio (Bender’s VO among others) was demanding higher pay for himself and his fellow cast

So about 25,000 peoples minimum drinking water per day per bouy. Not too bad there.

Or the overall average water usage of ~13.2 people (went with the first number cause I ain’t researching things rn)

So my Linux loving friend had their Debian installation nuke itself the other day. They went to boot it up and it just vanished. Completely gone. For zero discernable reason. It worked the night before without issue, it worked for months before that without issue, only to boot up and have everything missing.

All this is to say that using non Microsoft operating systems doesn’t magically make everything better. Everything in computing has issues and there’s no such thing as the perfect system.

Plus, even if Windows was perfect and fully FOSS, you and I both know you and all the other unix people would still hate it. It’s been the same circle jerk since the day unix existed.

Agreed but also fuck teams.

I just think pineapple tastes like ass on or off pizza ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

… There’s fucking tomato sauce not even a 16th of an inch below the ketchup. WTF is wrong with them?

Yeah, cause the rank and file have to work overtime to fix that shit when it breaks

I’m honestly more impressed that someone took the time to check Yahoo. Even my grandparents stopped using it, and their email is on AOL

Lol, you’re good

This is a Beehaw post, not Hexbear. Heaxbear is filled with sorry ass tankies

What service was this?

Agreed. I don’t have 90s Internet memories like a lot of here, but I do have some early 2000a Internet memories, which I honestly think was better than the 90s Internet cause we’d worked out a lot of the kinks.

Forums were a great place to chat with people about whatever and in 99% of cases, people were polite enough. People talked about this and that. I and others shared their discoveries in video games on sites like GameFAQs (rest in peace, I put up so many Mario Kart DD tips).

People treated interactive sites like they were neighborhoods. Sure, a ton of drama would pop up, same as any neighborhood, and sometimes that drama made modernTwitter drama seem tame, but it stayed within the community the majority of the time and it either got resolved or ended up killing the site. Either way people got over it and moved on.

Nowadays, just keeping up with memes and drama is a full time job. Just 5 years ago I could stay on top of things, now it feels like what’s funny changes the second I see it, and I’m not even old (I was just on the Internet at way too young). Hell, rage comics and impact memes were a think for over a decade.

Lemmy has so far felt like a nice middle ground between the old days of things lasting more than five minutes and people not just immediately being dicks (as long as you block everything LG and Hexbear) plus modern comforts in technology.

Huh, definitely thought the dude on the left was Mark Cuban
