...shared excitement..? I've not heard a single mention of this artemis mission outside of lemmy and reddit, literally nobody cares about it

"off" is one my favourites. The alarm went OFF so we had to turn it OFF. It means the opposite of itself.

"Sanction" is another example. Your actions were not sanctioned by us, so as retaliation we're introducing sanctions against you.

I feel like it's unfair that only learner drivers get a standardised signal for warning other road users of their incompetence. People who already got their license but are still shit at driving need one to. I'm thinking something like that blue "L" cube with a "D" instead short for "dumbfuck".

At this point I have completely given up on printer drivers. I just put files on a usb stick and plug it into the printer to print. Printer doesn't have that functionality? Oh well, it's as good as broken to me. Biking to the local library will take less time and kill less nerve cells than troubleshooting that piece of crap. I can only pray for people like you who have to work with this mess on the daily.

Totally on board with the message, but, isn't this, like, a direct violation of rule 2? Or are we going with the Gamer(TM) definition of "politics" where any stance that the community agrees with is inherently non-political?

"Advanced Privacy" app on /e/-os (opensource android ROM) sends me occasional notifications about apps with most trackers haha. Also has a "wall of shame" (it's literally called that) where you can browse the worst offending apps

Pretty sure there is a sizeable demographic of people who fantasize about falling in love with an elf precisely because their relationship would be like that of a pet and owner

EDIT why did I have to go and type that out. Cannot stop thinking about 1000 year old condescending dommy mommy elf GF now. fml

It’s far more racist to assume only minorities work for Door Dash

Yeah agreed. Racial profiling is still racial profiling, using euphemisms like "lower class" and "minority" instead of the usual slurs doesn't make it okay.

The original headline is "'No Way to Prevent This' says only country where this regularly happens". If you look closely at OP's meme, you can actually see the font changes after the "only" (baseline is slightly lower; uses lighter color; kerning of eve in "Prevent" is completely different )

But yeah shit take anyway, just because the US is famous for shootings doesn't mean that it's any more dangerous than other country

I personally pronounce it with a hard G even when talking about the mythical creature because that's how it's pronounced in most other languages that have a similar word. Anglos can go fuck themselves with their needlessly complicated phonetics.

Just for anyone else in the thread: this doesn't work lmao.

I used to be depressed and anxious af. Took a break from uni, moved back in with my parents, went to therapy, got better, joined a book club, started hanging out more at social centers and talking to people, got a part-time job as a waiter, started working out and paying attention to my looks... still no gf. You can't become a successful person by merely going through the motions of what you think a successful person's life looks like. You can't cargo cult your way into happiness.
