Ahh, a voice changer right where it belongs: on the ankle.

This was a really fun take. Even though it’s ridiculous, it’s fun to entertain theories like this!

I’ll throw a wrench in the works for anyone who wants to theorycraft further: Say the rocks floating up aren’t caused by gravity at all, but some other force. Maybe extreme winds caused by a massive celestial body approaching the planet’s surface could be strong enough to create enough lift to make the rocks float. Kind of like the vortexes and turbulence you’d create in a pool of water by dropping a bowling ball into it. What sort of properties would the moon need to have for this to be the explanation for the floating rocks?

Elon is a fucking terrorist. Deport his ass back to daddy’s emerald mines.

Play yellow Duck Hunt.

Allegedly, the legit fmovies mirrors are all down. The sites currently accessible are supposedly all clones.

At least, that’s what I’ve been able to gather. There’s a lot of mixed messages floating around this topic right now.

I’d like to think so, but part of me suspects that a large amount of the current users are on mobile exclusively. The old layout isn’t mobile-optimized at all, so those users are probably on the current UI.

For four individual drivers, even more specifically.

This has been a problem on Amazon for ages. Unless you can confirm the seller on the Amazon listing is authentic, you should never buy any storage devices on Amazon, ever.

Kim Dotcom isn’t “just some internet people sharing their stuff”.

I have a PS5, a Switch, and a Chromecast connected to my TV, and that’s already a hellish rat’s nest of cables. I’d love to see his cable management.

neoliberal thatcherites and reaganites that carry out digital mccarthyism

Buzzword mad-libs.

For me, I was enamored with the simplicity of it. You click Start and the Start menu just appears, without having to spend 10 seconds connecting to the internet to refresh a bunch of tiles that I never wanted in the first place. There wasn’t any half-baked “assistant” trying to suggest new spyware for me to install. It didn’t try making me sign into a Microsoft account just to open the photo gallery. The only “bloatware” it came preinstalled with was Outlook Express. The whole experience just made the computer feel like a tool to use for a purpose again.

It’s funny, because I remember thinking when Vista and subsequent versions of Windows came out, that it was amazing we ever survived with something as primitive as XP. But these days, all I want is to go back to that.

I actually briefly used an XP machine a few months ago, for the first time in many years. It was weird, it felt like I was revisiting an old childhood home or something. Everything was right where I remembered it, everything worked the way I expected it to.

I kinda want to go back. We never realized how good we had it.

They might as well at this point. Look at the top comments in any of the main subs these days, they’re all LLM posts. Just bots having conversations with each other. Half of them you can tell because the bot author used a very minimal prompt so they’re all formatted like every basic ChatGPT response.

And those are just from the ones I can recognize from playing around a bunch with GPT. Gotta wonder how many are going completely undetected. The default subs have been absolutely ruined with bots.

I’ve had this open in a tab for several weeks now. Just refreshed, checked new episodes of stuff that’s come out in the last few days, no issues. I wasn’t even aware there were mirrors/clones.

I’m not sure what OP’s talking about, because fmovies is working for me just fine.

I wonder if anybody would be interested in running a Lemmy community for them.

[click click, click click click click] Hmm, why’s it not… Honey, did we pay the mouse bill this month?

Back in the early days, watching a cammed movie was tolerable because the 480p rips that we’d otherwise get were so heavily compressed that there’d be hardly any step up in quality. It was also usually the fastest way I could find a new movie.

These days, releases get leaked from inside the studio all the time, at full quality, so there’s not really any legitimate need for cammed movies anymore.

Spamming links in the replies of trending tweets has been an advertising strategy for years now. You can’t open the replies to any popular tweet without immediately seeing titties and OF links. Blocking links in replies is an easy fix that they could’ve implemented ages ago if they actually cared about preventing spam.

But this isn’t about spam. This is about kneecapping fact-checkers before an upcoming election, on a platform where the owner has expressed endorsement for a candidate. Elon doesn’t want people correcting misinformation, he wants the lies to grow and fester and spread like cancer. He’s already pushed Trump-tagged tweets to users who have the term blocked; he’s not hiding it anymore.

The only socially acceptable use of a Twitter account these days is for encouraging others to get the fuck off of Twitter. Using a Twitter account for any other purpose is reprehensible, and cringe. Stop drinking at the nazi bar.
