More like “Because I primarily speak Spanish and little English and essentially all Spanish media is nothing but far right propaganda and pro-capitalist messaging and has been for several decades.”

You forgot Wicked, that was probably responsible for a big boost around the holidays.

I’m sorry, are you under the impression that animal husbandry doesn’t occur in non-capitalist societies?

FYI, when you click the link on mobile, it immediately starts downloading a video file. I can not stress enough how much I do not want that to happen.

I want more of this type of horror. Why does all horror have to be modern or sci-fi?

We have so much history we could be exploring with it! Off the top of my head you could have…

A squadron of Roman soldiers, lost in a haunted forest, struggling to survive/escape as spirits pick them off one by one.

A young Irish sheep herder who accidentally wanders into the Fae realm.

A pair of pre-colonial Native Americans out on a vision quest who become hunted by a skinwalker.

A trader during the Islamic Golden Age encountering an evil djinn.

Monks in ancient China band together to protect their village from a dragon.

Ancient Sumerian demons.

Aztec shamans performing dark rituals.

Pacts with Babylonian gods in ancient Babylon.

Yea, he better watch out or he’s gonna get a $6000 fine instead of $5000.

Ok then why do waiters always make it SO FUCKING HARD TO LEAVE?! Most of the time, I wind up waiting for the check to show up, often I have to flag someone down to get it.

And then, the most ridiculous part of the whole ritual; they drop off the check and then leave! Imagine if that happened anywhere else. Go through the grocery aisle, get all your stuff scanned, and then the person working the checkout just walks away for 5+ minutes.

And then, when they finally show up and take the check with your card, they leave for another 5+ minutes. What is taking so long?! It is 2026, how do you not have a functional POS system??

Places that let you pay with your phone and leave when you’re ready are the best. Even ones that have the waiter come to the table with a pad you can pay on are good. I just hate the black booklets, such a horrible, inefficient way to pay.

Gotta wonder where Binding of Isaac falls on the list since it’s been out so long and it’s players tend to be the ones that put hundreds, if not thousands, of hours into it.

Yea! What gives? People will eat a wonderfully cooked and prepared steak but turn their nose up at an unseasoned chunk of raw beef. They also prefer soft bread over raw flour. Gosh, it sure is a mystery why people have these preferences! As we all know, cooking and food preparation do absolutely nothing and the end result tastes exactly like the raw ingredients.

America bad. Alaska ok.

Because it has ad blockers built in, has Tor built in, blocks trackers by default, and is very upfront and open about how they use your data if you choose to let them. A big part of what this article misses is that the feature is opt-in. It is turned off by default. Some people are weird and want personalized ads, in which case this feature is a hell of a lot more secure than other browsers who have to opt-out of tracking and don’t give a shit about your PII.

Oh wait, I forgot where I was. Umm, I mean… Brave bad! Bad browser!

No it’s not. I mean, maybe if you’re dumb and can’t recognize fake shit, which, from the looks of this comment thread, it appears Lemmy has started down that path.

It’s the “in a bikini” part that’s a dead giveaway. That’s not a detail that would be included in a real headline. That’s extra added to make the situation seem more ridiculous and silly. It’s crazy I even have to point this out, its painfully obvious to me.

Because, shockingly, Discords user base is not made up of people hyper focused on tech and decentralization and open source software. It’s mostly people who just want to play video games with their friends.

They should countersue for lost profits.

And if all your friends are hyper focused on tech and decentralization and open source software, they should have no problem switching!

If, on the other hand, you have friends who fall into the rest of the 99.9% of society, they will react like you suggested they replace all their meals with raw potatoes.

Chiming in to say Sea of Stars. Absolutely gorgeous pixel graphics and music, and a true love letter to old school JRPGs. It gave me nostalgia for something I didn’t even know I lost.

Every time I see a picture of a quantum computer, it just looks like a bunch of Galileo thermometers bundled together. So maybe you’re on to something lol

I mean, except for you, the creator and poster of this misleading image that will only add fuel to the baseless accusations from Mossad. Even if you created this as an edgy joke, it won’t be used that way.

Let me ask you something: Why make shit up at all? Even as a joke? There are plenty of respectable people who have made anti-ICE statements. Hell, even Miss Rachel has made actual statements. Why not just use her actual words? Why put words into someone’s mouth that they didn’t say? What good comes of that?

Sorry, best I can do is vampires again. If you’re good, I’ll also toss in a society of werewolves that they are in constant war with for some reason.
