Which is interesting, because the point of the phrase is to imply something is so commonplace that it practically has no value. It’s so commonplace you can get a dozen of them for a dime!
So technically while the relative value of the dime in this phrase decreases, the relative value of the phrase itself increases as the dime’s value ever further approaches negligible, ever better emphasizing the point!
Words are fun.
I’m confused why you want to use anything other than old.reddit in the first place
Yonia is truly a modern goddess. What a legendary beauty
Not allowing reviews on the storefront seems minor, but is in fact an aggressively anti-consumer move given the standards of the industry. They’ve got other issues too, but that one gets ignored way too often for me to not mention
My friend, I regret to inform you that you are misunderstanding the meme
Additionally, the puzzles were often trivialized because of the crafting system being too overpowered
If they offered you puzzles and you ignored those puzzles via the crafting system, that sounds like a choice not to engage with the puzzles you claim to want.
Very valid. All the more reason to need something to aspire to, imo.
Bananas. I’m not saying it’s hard now, but it used to be insanely easy to pirate. Everyone I know my age had a PC full of pirated films and music just searching directly on Kazaa or limewire without having ever even heard of terms like “VPN.”
and binge nutrek shit.
I hate how all of the new Trek shows seem so intent on subverting/dismantling the hopeful and utopian world of Star Trek.
Like, at least to me, the whole point of Star Trek is that while we have no shortage of pessimistic dystopian Sci-Fi, there’s painfully few major properties that paint a hopeful picture for the future. Star Trek was always an aspirational look at humanity to me; the new shows seem so focused on being tense and dramatic that they forget they’re supposed to have that aspirational quality.
I answered this in another thread, so I’m just gonna copy and paste my answer here. Sorry if the context comes off slightly odd, like I said it was originally elsewhere:
I’ve thought about the topic and I think I can answer why there has been a rise in step-porn.
I think it’s pretty simple: people are more isolated, and people now socialize online.
We’re simply seeing less of each other than we ever have (especially during the pandemic, but this isn’t specific just to that timeline). Whereas we used to go out and socialize and develop crushes in the real world, for a lot of people, especially a lot of young men, these days the vast majority, if not all, of the non-online social interactions they’re having with the opposite sex are within their own homes. And while our brains may be adapting to this new internet landscape well enough, I think our bodies are still lagging behind. When you’re an 18 year with raging hormones, the sexual drive extends beyond the reasonable brain. And so it attaches to what your libido recognizes as the other sexually viable candidates regularly in your sphere of influence: the women inside your own home. And thus they develop crushes on their mothers, their siblings, their stepsiblings, and are turned on by pornography that lets them indulge in this taboo but still very real crush.
And to be clear, I am attempting to explain the phenomenon, I am not attempting to excuse or justify it. Incest is gross and faux/step-incest may be biologically better but is still pretty socially/culturally fucked.
I’m just glad I grew up in the 90s before our lives had moved so heavily online.
A- I like your wit.
B- I really appreciate this comment because it taught me that if somebody edits their comment Lemmy will also retroactively change the comment notification to the edited text as well (when I saw it originally it was before your edit so the message said “I am an internet person” but now shows your Zuck joke)
@labbbb
Are you a person or a bot?
Has your boss ever said something to you to the effect of “Hey I know you already clocked out but you forgot to do ___; can you knock that out for me real fast before you go home?”
If so, you’ve been the victim of wage theft. Wage theft isn’t not making the whole sum of the value you bring in to the company, it’s not getting any portion of the sum for which you are legally and ethically entitled to.
It depends, largely on your opinion on and experience with Linux.
Just save the post with the save tag and check back, I guess
I’m not defending them, but this was clearly always the plan. It was obvious they intended to enter the market just under competitor prices to establish a foothold and then later charge more and reset the industry standard in doing so.
Again, I’m not saying it doesn’t suck, because it does, but this was clearly the Disney+ game plan since day 1
Got it, only enthusiastic yes men are actually counted as valid members of the community.
Interesting take, gotta admit.
