Fat, drunk, and stupid used to be no way to go through life. Now it’s the bare minimum for government employment.
Just a nerd who migrated from kbin(dot)social.

Alright. Normalize both then. And remember that “tax” is a euphemism.


Yeah, half of these I wouldn’t mind. The other half would make me lose my sense of humor.


Retsuko could do with a Xan or two maybe. But I like Keroppi and Keroleen more.


i don’t know about about AI moderation, but I like mbin. I also like the fact that I can interact with the majority of the Fediverse in one account.


Good, we shouldn’t even be thinking about LLMs. Let alone who has a “lead” on the slop machines.

It is - in fact, it’s Melroy’s own instance (which is why it’s still kbin, developed by Ernest). He’s developing his platform, yes, but it’s the ActivityPub commits that I’m interested in.


I have a choice - pay for that, or pay for food, clothes, shelter, and the esoterica of existence - including debts that I got myself into stupidly because I trusted someone I should not have. There’s no amount of the money I need to live which I’m willing to expend on that.


I don’t think I’ve turned a TV onto anything live in about 3 years.


Okay - what team of devs will take over developing ActivityPub threads and Lemmy/Threadiverse?


Candy Crush, casual games, and their ads don’t exist in gaming magazines sold wrapped in plastic bags. The main demographic for game sales is casual players. The main demographic for the ads is teenage boys (or basement dwelling manchildren). They’re different markets.
That can be rewritten to say, “Iran mulls starting a hot world war 3.”
