Politics are dumb but very, very important. I’m exhausted, but I can’t let that stop me.

I miss the sheer size of the site only because I can no longer find my niche. If I want to talk or read about a specific anime unveiling, there’s maybe a few communities on Lemmy but they’re completely dead. Reddit had the benefit of having a single sub for X thing be modestly active instead of as many communities as you like but nobody keeps up with them.
I had a cool idea that I completely gave up on because I tried to learn how to do it and realized what I was asking was so insanely complicated and time consuming that I couldn’t do it. I play a lot of games, I know what would make a good one, there’s just a gaping chasm between knowing and creating.
Because nobody likes self aggrandizement. The perception that so many people only do it to make themselves appear to be better people because of their morally superior choice is often a vile taste to anyone who hasn’t made that same choice.
We all know eating meat is bad and for the many reasons for it. What we don’t want to hear is that someone made the switch and that their bleeding heart simply couldnt take it anymore.
I eat beyond meat and I do my best to transition, yet, I’d never say that for the purpose of making myself seem like a better person. Vegans typically do.
Starts as proof of concept to get you used to it. Toggle it off, hide it, but it exists. It’s there in the code. Next step is to gradually remove the option to say no. They already tried forcing people to upgrade to Windows 11. They’ll just try harder. It’s too much money for them to ignore.
And this is the straw in which I will instruct Microsoft to suck shit through.
Yep, I do decide what good and bad means. The fucking concept of taxes disagrees with everything you said so kindly fuck off back to your hole, corpo rat.
It’s not hypocrisy. A billionaire is orders of magnitudes richer than a millionaire. A millionaire doesn’t have nearly the same capacity to do overwhelming good as a billionaire does.
A millionaire who chooses not to use their money to help isn’t good but a billionaire who chooses not to use their money to help is decidedly evil.
Much like how you not giving half your sandwich to a homeless guy isn’t good but a restaurant that throws out perfectly good food at the end of the night directly next to a homeless shelter is decidedly evil.
You one of those “if you have more money than me, you have too much money” folks?
Millionaires (can be) good. Billionaires (are always) bad.
The thing is, there was only ever one good billionaire and he gave his money away to such a degree he was no longer a billionaire. While Mark Cuban has done good, surely even saved and improved many lives, he still has a billion more ways to do so. Plenty of good millionaires out in the world, there are no good billionaires.
The mere concept of a billion anything is so hard to comprehend that it serves repeating.
One million seconds is 12 days. One billion seconds is 32 years.
Oh shit the ewaste got to his brain, the retard can’t read! That’s a shame.
There are no good billionaires get it through your head.
You mean the guy who linked a youtube short as evidence? Yeah, no.
Lmao I prefer renewable energy over coal and oil but the morons like you who idolize it while ignoring the fact it’s creating insane amounts of waste is what pisses me off. You need to constantly ignore the downsides of green energy because if you didn’t you’d quickly see how fucking awful it is. The only green energy I want is nuclear. I don’t give a shit if it’s fission or fusion, it’s nuke or nothing babe.
The ewaste from photovoltaic cells is already at a billion kilograms. A billion. They’re not being recycled properly, just like plastic bottles, fuckheads dump them in the garbage. So no, fuck solar and fuck wind, both aren’t worth the massive amounts of garbage they produce. I’ll say it until my dying breath, solar and wind are not the fucking answer to climate change. Stop celebrating them.
If you haven’t figured out that electronics make waste and that nuclear fission is the answer, good, you’re free to fuck right off.
Also, this isn’t an airport, you don’t need to announce your departures, thanks!
Lol your ignorance is deafening. Wonder how long until photovolatic cells overtake vapes. Dipshit.
Are you new to the concept of breaking things? Jesus fuck. Photovolatic panels are already top 5 biggest contributors to ewaste. Please remove your head from your ass. It’s nuclear or nothing.
Use nuclear you goober.
Every day I wake up I gamble if I’ll enjoy it or not.
