Thank you, I thought I was losing it. I never knew Tylenol used different stuff in different countries, cool!

uBlock origin was just taken down for me, automatically uninstalled. I’ve returned to my noob roots and gotten Adblock in the meantime, and MAN is it just not the same as uBlock

Seeing the entirety of America instead of just Ohio in this picture is just wrong

POV used correctly???

Yes, for a sense of scale, Pennsylvania (rectangular one in the top right) is about the size of England

Yeah, I was devastated too, because I wanted to get it with my own money one day

Yeah, I had a similar feeling. I understood the intent, but it still felt off

Twisters

Unless we’re counting documentaries, but seeing a documentary of events in the 1960’s in theaters probably doesn’t count as “original” anyways

Thank you for the info!

So, Lemmy is a bunch of separate social media networks that seamlessly* connect to each other? That’s… really cool

Wait…you can browse instances without making an account??? Whoops, lol, I guess I was a little too eager to get Boost for Lemmy working with an account of my own immediately following Boost for Reddit getting nuked.

Is there a good way to browse instances? (Particularly through Boost?)

Also, what are the instances… literally? Like, I’ve never seen social media have groups like this (tied to the account, and separate from the communities, that is)

I think TikTok is stupid. Everything I see about it makes me think it’s stupid, and short-form media is rotting peoples’ brains

But by god, this is America! We have every right to rot our own brains if we want! U! S! A! The State can’t stop us!

Of course! Congress will take out his competition for him! Why wouldn’t he?

Also, why does his opinion matter more to Congress than other Americans? Oh, yeah, I know why…

If such fears were officials’ genuine motivation, one could hope that broader data-privacy regulation might follow

This is what blows it out of the water for me. When the TikTok ban was first floated a few years ago, I liked the sound of legislation to protect user data. But that’s not what it’s about; where’s the new regulations? The new protections? What consequences will Twitter and Facebook and Instagram face? No where, no where, none, none, none. It’s not about protecting Americans from the CCP, it’s about stopping the CCP from getting in on their game

What exactly are instances? I picked one at random that claimed to be “general purpose” because I didn’t know what I was doing (I migrated very recently)

Nuh-uh! MY made up beliefs are better!!!

You excel at what you measure…

The steak will insist it’s a “special military operation”

The two on the right would fool me

but the cybertruck? Come on

Probably bought it from Elon for 62¢
