Jesus Christ what a fucking freak. A rape kink doesn’t mean you want to be raped, freak. Yes women are care about superficial bullshit, and you think men don’t?

You freak. Loser. Weirdo. Incel.

It’s mostly because people consume most content via apps and the web on smart phones now that have screens that are anywhere from 4.5" - 6.5" in size, and sadly more complex logos just don’t look that good when they’re squished into an area that’s a fraction of the total screen size. Where as in the past people might see a Pringles ad or anything related to Pringles on the TV, in a news paper, on a billboard etc which have way more space so the details are visible.

It is pretty unfortunate though, it’s the same reason the Firefox logo (and like everything else lol) was made minimalistic. I miss the old Firefox logo, I didn’t use Firefox in 2005-2009 but that one is definitely my favourite, the 2009-2013 one is nice too though which is when I first started using FF I think. Compared to today’s logo even the 2013-2017 one is great though

Are social studies undergrads often fans of FOSS lol?

How the fuck did you get that from what you just read??

Now we need somebody from Siberia to tell us how they can drive for 5000km and never leave their federal subject (I had to look that up, it’s what the different regions of Russia are called)

I honestly have no idea what you’re talking about, left leaning Americans seem to talk about Canada positively all of the time, in reference to its health care system and generally aboit how they want their country to be more like Canada. The only thing negative they say is in reference how native people have been treated and still continue to be treated there which I think is right.

I am not from either country and this is just based on what I see Americans online say about Canada/Canadians.

Were they making an argument?

Now that’s something I could get behind… €2,352 would be pretty nice lol

Lol, I have been using vDS on my Android phone it’s the DS emulator that I found works best (at least best free emulator.) Most games work well, some don’t seem to translate well to a phone screen though. I wanted to play Sonic Rush Adventure, and it runs fine on the emulator but the on screen buttons just don’t seem to be suitable for that type of game.

Huh interesting. So I guess replies appear in order of when they were made and not weighted based on upvotes, seen as there appears to be no equivent on Mastodon? Quite cool (and a bit confusing) how Activity Pub is stitching everything together. I wish I could see more content from Mastodon show up in Lemmy, not sure how that would work with communities though.

Also, I notice the web version of Mastodon has a really nice UI

Huh, the user tag of the last Mastadon user I saw on Lemmy was also @null, although their tag seems to be showing up correctly for me now

So on Mastadon do you see Lemmy posts as the Mastadon equivalent of a Tweet?

I never see posts and comments from Mastadon users on Lemmy even though I believe it’s more popular so you would expect there to be more or at least a similar number as from Lemmy users. I think your comment is only the second I’ve seen from Mastadon users.

Like the other reply says, the user tag of the last Mastadon user I saw was [name]@null, though yours is fine for me now. Also odd that your attached images don’t show even though Lemmy has that feature too. Maybe these issues will be ironed out soon

Yeah definitely, I was thinking it was so you keep watching the ad till the end to work out what it’s for which is in the same vein

Yeah of course. If you’re referring to what I said about not having people waiting for you to finish, at shops I go to with them there’s one line for like 6 or more machines so people aren’t waiting for any one person, you know? You aren’t the sole reason somebody is having to spend time in the store.

The biggest problem with modern advertising is that they try to sell you on the idea before establishing what the idea even is.

This is definitely a running theme with ads, in fact there has been multiple instances where I have seen an ad, and despite seeing the entire duration I literally have no idea what was actually been advertised to me haha.

I feel like about 4% of all the comments on Lemmy are just people telling each other they use an adblocker

That has nothing to do with the comment you replied to.

Ah I am the opposite, I prefer the self check outs so that I don’t have to talk to anyone. I don’t know why but I always feel obligated to think of something to say when going through human checkout. If there’s an issue with the machine during check out that can be a bit anxiety inducing but the issues are fairly common so I just sort of shrug and am like “it just started beeping” and they make it stop within a few seconds.

For the same reason I’ve been cutting my own hair for nearly 6 years now lol

Yeah of course, you can just go at your own pace and do it in your own time. Don’t have to have 20 people breathing down your neck and judging you for taking 5 seconds too long to find your debit card. Don’t have to talk to anyone, it’s great. People just prefer different things.

Yeah I’m pretty sure fffp3/N95 masks should leave you almost completely protected in normal circumstances, outside of working in a hospital or whatever.
