Since I’m Canadian and live in a major city that gets very busy I can kinda understand it. I do it myself. bump into someone or do the side walk shuffle and I said sorry even though it’s not my fault. Like someone will bump into me and I’ll say sorry.
They’ve already “flocked”. The site and userbase is a shell of its former self and it’s hey day is long passed. The users aged out or just went to places like kiwi farms, random discord channels, etc.
I mean you’re on Lemmy, a good chunk of old 4chan users are here, so you’re amongst them.
nice of them to put everything in one place for easier access for the ruskies.
“Now these thugs will learn no actual lesson and go out and do it again, potentially with a weapon, and their next victim may not survive like Big Balls did.”
Judging by this wet brained morons bloody photo (seriously, look at the size of his head, it’s full of water) don’t think they need a weapon. they handed him his ass. dude got beat up by kids.
and make no mistake these kids learned something alright, they learned that Nazi’s as surprisingly very easy to beat up.
The people. Americans. That’s what we’re waiting on.
the issue is unlike other nations in the world American law enforcement and the military will NOT hesitate to point a tank barrel in your face and pull the trigger. They are MORE than willing to fly the air force over some random town in Ohio and turn it into a parking lot. In places like France the people can riot for being told that Paper should not be thrown in the recycling bin anymore because French Authorities aren’t going to start a mass slaughter of their people, American authorities on the other hand have very little regard for their fellow man.
I was one of those Canadians wondering “why aren’t the people fighting back?” but now I get it. Chances are if the American people start fighting back a good massive chunk of them will be killed. So the question now is are the American people willing to literally DIE for their country? I don’t blame a single one of them if they answer “no.”
Because lets be honest here why throw your life away for a country that has already turned it’s back on you WELL before a Nazi wannabe dictator took office. Make no mistake Americans were STILL struggling under Democratic leadership. So I don’t blame them. They’re tired, they’re all barely surviving, their healthcare is tied directly to their employment (by design). Systems have been building and put in place for decades to ensure they DON’T rebel. Most Americans live paycheque to paycheque. The healthcare they do pay out the ass for is already pretty shitty. So fighting for ones country means you and your family no longer eat, no longer have a place to sleep, no longer have healthcare. again, this is by design.
If you’ve ever wondered how other Dictatorships in the world took power, this is how, this is EXACTLY how. Leverage already established systems, crank them a bit more, take and hold power.
The cards have been MASSIVELY stacked against the American people for a good long while now. Frankly, rebelling isn’t an option. Like Oliver they now have to hold their wooden bowls infront of Furor Trump and ask “Please sir, may I have another?”
I think whomever is modding here today deserves a beer or three.
I charge them more than I would if I was just developing for them from scratch. I USED to actually build things, but now I’m making more money doing code reviews and telling them where they fucked up with the AI and then myself and my now small team fix it.
AI and Vibe coders have made me great money to the point where I’ve now hired 2 other developers who were unemployed for a long time due to being laid off from companies leveraging AI slop.
Don’t get me wrong, I’d love for the bubble to burst (and it will VERY soon, if it hasn’t already) and I know that after it does I can retire and hope that the two people I’ve brought on will quickly find better employment.
For the DC? yeah, it would play burned CDs no problem.
For the playstation? not sure. I had mine modded so I could import games from Japan but I don’t believe it could play burned CDs.
Xbox and the 360 were easy to mod though and you could play burned games on those also.
But yeah the Dreamcast just did it right out of the box. no mods required.
majority of my clients use it, just makes them feel better.
yup, majority of clients use so just makes things easier on them. Dont’ get me wrong I hate it too but they like it so whatever, I adapt.
best decision I ever made years and years ago was to stop being a regular employee and instead do freelance/consulting work. No more interruptions. Emails can be ignored when need be, same with calls and texts, I don’t use whatsapp or any of that. My Jira is PURELY for bug tracking and if anyone that has been invited into it goes off rails on it for something OTHER than bug tracking they get removed.
If I go into an office I leave whenever I want. If someone starts bothering me I pack up and go.
use either Mullvad (yes, I know, the GUI sucks) or set up your own VPN.
the mullvad cli is very quick and easy. it’s a lot faster than what it was. OR set up your own wireguard VPN on your server, again very easy to set up.
I swear US Democrats learn absolutely nothing. All you have to do is jingle some keys in their faces and they’ll applaud.
This is a guy who wants California Cities to force homeless people to move every 3 days. This is a guy who has threatened to cut funding to cities that don’t “crack down” on homeless people.
This is a guy who simply has one of his interns to write funny twitter posts and NOW he’s suddenly “presidential material”.
And some people honestly wonder how Trump was re-elected.
I had a program that came with special CD Labels for the printer where you could make your own cool CD label covers. that was fun.
Or going into a Dreamcast IRC channel to download games and burn them to disk. I think I only ever actually bought like 2 Dreamcast games, Shenmue and Seaman, the rest were just burned to CD-Rs.
I read the manuals for everything now. I think it’s because when I was a kid videogames used to come with great manuals and half the fun was just reading through those. One of my favourites was for the original Heavy Gear on PC. that thing was like a hybrid manual and lore bible. Or old Flight Sim games with manuals that were as thick as text books.
Now you don’t get shit.
I don’t see how it would save time as someone whose job is to currently undo what “time” it “saves”. You can give Claude Code the most fantastic and accurate prompt in the world but you’re still going to have to explain to it how something actually works when it gets to the point, and it will, that it starts contradicting itself and over complicating things.
You said yourself he has to reiterate through the code with the LLM to get something that works. If he already knows it, he could just write it. Having to explain to something HOW to write what you ALREADY know can’t possibly be saving time. it’s Coding with extra steps.
God bless vibe coders, because of them I’m buying a new PC build this week AND I’ve decided to get a PS5.
Thank you Vibe Coders, your laziness and and sheer idiocy are padding my wallet nicely.
Thanks, when I have the time I’ll look into implementing this.

honest question because personally I’m not seeing it or maybe I’m just blinded to it but how is it worse? From what I’ve seen the moderation hasn’t been anywhere near as heavy handed as on Reddit with the exception of nuking bots. Maybe because I’m just blocking certain instances that I’m not seeing it.
