“There’s a man in the bathroom and there’s something hard in his pants!”

Maybe your cell in Guantanamo or El Salvador will have a window. Bahaha just kidding they won’t.

I think we’re getting, or soon will be, to the point where deportation changes meaning to indefinite incarceration.

In my state the rednecks are harder on latinos than they are on black people in general. I think it’s simply because they’re exposed to more black people.

It’s a shame travel is so expensive. A good trip or two to centroamerica just might cure their bigotry.

I have two friends that said they used to listen to NPR but not as much “since they got all political” - meaning calling Trump’s lies what they are, lies. In fact they’re pretty soft on Trump compared to some outlets. It’s frustrating.

Yep! Twitter is going to be Weixin. I’ll go to my grave calling it twitter in a pathetic display of disapproval.

This is just the beginning. He’s going to force the government to run through twitter. Then you’ll only be able to pay your bills through twitter. Then your national ID will be authorized through twitter. Then all banking through twitter. It’s coming.

I’m down 100%. Also give them rifles. Now we’re talking.

Maybe it’s because they’re subverting the largest and most powerful democracy in the world. Wait until the real purges start. I bet you won’t be able to dig a hole deep enough to fit your head.

Go back to Reddit asshole.

Yeah it’s wild. I don’t think it’s good but I’m not doing a great job teaching. One of my gen Z nephews expressed an interest so I gave him my old PC, took it apart with him and put it back together, explained everything.

He rearranged his room and told me when he hooked everything back up his games were super slow. Every time I touch his PC I clean it up from scam shit spyware etc. I pretend not to notice where all this stuff came from.

But this time was different. He’d plugged his monitor into the motherboard instead of the graphics card. He recently redid his room again and got it right this time! Small victories.

For real. I’ve taught people copy paste shortcuts and they act like I’m an alien.

So I’ve been in the DOS/Windows world for at least 30 years. I have never used Linux, but I can configure a Cisco server or switch and stack a rack. Yet I fail your test?

I’m a xennial. I was so excited by computers, and later the internet. It completely absorbed me to the point that I would get up an hour early for school so I could mess around with the computer before catching the bus. A beautiful (ugly) Compaq with a 200n megabyte hard drive, 2 megs of ram. 86 architecture. I was about 11 years old.

I played a few games, but I spent much more time messing around the system in DOS. Making batch files, then working with qbasic. Of course I played Nintendo games as well. After we got internet I used a 28.8kbps modem to upload my own webpage via FTP.

I remember thinking, even as a child/teenager, that the kids of the future were going to be incredible, being born into the digital internet age. I was so wrong. My classmates struggled with computers because they weren’t amazed by them like I was. Touch typing class had nothing on ICQ.

I think there are a lot of xennials on Lemmy. It was crushing to see that the generations before and after us can’t comprehend the basics of computers. Then smartphones happened and everything got so much worse.

OKAAAY

I have ADHD and sometimes can’t focus to do more brain intensive work if I’m in a room with a bunch of people talking. Street/background noise doesn’t bother me at all. I grew up suburb rural adjacent but I’ve worked in huge cities for long periods and it just doesn’t bother me like six people having two conversations would.

It’s said as krokodil correct? Means crocodile because your skin will look like a crocodile’s. I watched a video I wish I’d never seen where some medical workers took off a user’s boot and his foot came off with it.

Congratulations on your success. I hope what’s coming doesn’t touch you too badly. I mean it.

Also fuck the families of some of the 9/11 victims. They filed lawsuits to force everyone remaining in Guantanamo to get sentenced to death. This drug on and on. The site could not be closed while these last few remained.

Would your consider your family threatened when we have inflation at obscene, never-before-seen rates?

It’s a Paddy wagon. Because it was full of Irishmen.
