Ok this got a nose puff out of me

33 year old in Buck’s County, PA. He filmed a 15 minute YouTube video holding his father’s severed head. The Advocate is the only source I’ve seen so far, sorry. But I have seen the YT video and it’s beyond fucked.

I dealt with quite a range of incomes. I pull their credit reports to qualify them for service. I knew exactly what their financials looked like.

Nope. I worked retail for years at the same yellow-and-blue themed electronics store and they’re spot-on. The absolute worst are the ones carrying tacky designer bags. Think the giant LV logo ones. They were almost universally nightmares to deal with that had $1000 deposit requirements for cell phones.

You’re right and you should say it louder.

I’ve been encountering fewer and fewer of those that still work lately. Most IVR systems I’ve interacted with just disconnect you if they can’t understand your input.

I downloaded my first porn from Kazaa, over dial-up.

It was true at one point, but has since changed. The systems are totally air-gapped and worked 100% of the time, so there was never a reason to change them.

Also true: Boeing still uses floppies to update their 747s.

What really baffles me is how people that have dishwashers manage to do this. Like, use bowl/whisk/cutting board/whatever > put in dishwasher. That way, all you have to do is wash your knives while everything else cooks.

Stress test, yeah.

Same thing with my mother; she started getting pummeled with cc mailers within 6 months of her filing.

'Member buying a game, and getting the whole game?

I 'member.

Sucks for anything that’s not cishet.

Just don’t mention any software that isn’t FOSS. Ever.

Yeah, and if we could stop putting honeybee apiaries everywhere to greenwash the other horrible shit companies are doing, that’d be great.

There’s a big issue now with native pollinators being pushed out in favor of “cute” honeybees.

Imagine not knowing that TV news exists.

It’s just more fedora-tipping condescension that keeps “normal” people from embracing things like Lemmy and Mastodon (or Kbin or Pixelfed or…). If we could all stop huffing the farts out of each others’ FOSS-holes and be a little kinder to people dipping a toe into these alternate networks, maybe we’d have more than 5 comments on a post.

So, the big stink about BPA (a type of plastic) e:below is that it interferes with certain hormones in the body. I don’t know for sure what the concerns are with other microplastics, but I do remember reading they strongly suspect they can do similar things to our endocrine systems, as well as being probable carcinogens.

Lemmy isn’t “too extreme,” a very small subset of Lemmings are just fucking insufferable.
