I’ve been using a Pixel 3 for about 5 years and I love it. I actually got a pixel 7 for work earlier this year and honestly prefer the pixel 3 lol. I’ve had some charging issues because lint gets stuck in the charge port, but I’ve been able to mostly solve those by cleaning out the port with a toothpick.
Same with competitive sports. As a tennis player, if I lose a match I’m usually doubly motivated to get back out there for another one.
Yup that is a real rough pill to swallow when the default is free AND no ads. If I’m going to drop money on lemmy I’d rather just donate to whoever is hosting my instance.
Unfortunately fascism can’t actually work without an “other” to be a scapegoat. Fascism frames history as the struggle of an infallible ethnostate towards prosperity. Therefore any imperfection in the state is the result of the influence of “others” working against the state. Without an “other” fascists would actually need to take responsibility for society’s shortcomings.
It’s important to recognize that fascists are not evil comic book villains. If you are a member of their ethnostate they will come off quite pleasant. They will say “You are beautiful, you are kind, you are wise. We are building a utopia and we’d like you to join us.” Then eventually they will say “We cannot build a utopia because they stand in our way. They are ugly, they are cruel, they are stupid.” And then before you know it you are building gas chambers.
We investigated ourselves and found we did nothing wrong.
But in all seriousness, this feels like the chronological feed given to users was just a straw man intended to make their algorithm look better. Also the claim in the article that Meta’s algorithm does not impact users politics is completely ridiculous and not at all supported by a study like this.
Pillars of Eternity 2. I’m not all that far in, but I’ve been loving it so far. The characters and story feel really well crafted, and there’s just a ton of variability in how you can construct your party and progress. Hopefully the quality continues throughout since the first POE felt like it ended abruptly.
It’s also an oppressive police state where huge portions of the population live in poverty and endure awful working conditions. Oh and they’re actively engaged in genocide against a minority ethnic group. But sure if we just ignore all the downsides it’s great.
Elden Ring is honestly pretty easy with the right builds. It’s just hard really hard on a first blind playthrough since you won’t know what the good items are and where to find them.
But then you have to change accounts, which I understand isn’t difficult, though it’s still something that needs to be done proactively by the user. Would be nice to just have a better content ranking algorithm that gives smaller communities a chance.
Dayumn gotta get me some Lemmy plat to be a big baller.
As a former Boost for Reddit user I’ve been digging Jerboa. Definitely going to check out Boost for Lemmy once it’s available too.
$100k avg salary for a New York tech company? The lowest level employees there almost certainly make well above that. If we’re talking avg salary it’s probably at least $200k.
I like it a lot. Feels like early days Reddit. I do miss some of the niche reddit communities, but on the other hand the main lemmy continues seem much more approachable. My biggest complaint is that Lemmy can be pretty slow at times.
btw the spaces in the links provided by OP effectively break the links if you’re not based on the community’s home server. Would be really great to get this updated.
Wow good for UPS workers. As a tech worker I can say I’m genuinely happy for them. They have a hard ass job. A win for labor is a win for labor, regardless of which type.
