could you elaborate on what you mean by “performance” of cloud storage? the speed of upload, download?

the average lemmy user is much more tech literate than an average person

people really don’t know that kind of stuff. to many a computer is a computer, it has internet, and plays games… what’s an operating system?

grief is the debt we take on by loving something

there will always be a tragedy at the end

they look like it’s their first time running every time

… this may or may not have been my first thought

animals like being a little fucked up sometimes, as a treat, we all do it

tiktok may be a new app but it will spy on you the most :) it fuelled itself by using the money they got from selling your data to advertise itself in every spare pixel of the internet

no app with an ethical TOS & other acronyms could rise to the top like that. even word of mouth is slowly dying, there’s too much white noise around (bots)

it blew my tiny mind when i found out that there are multiple dwarf planets in long solar orbits in our system

they might be small and enjoy solitude but why are we forgetting about them???

and now apparently there’s also a dwarf planet in the inner solar system that nobody talks about??? rude

just having a bouncer at the door reduces the number of minors significantly. Same way a sticker saying “this area is monitored” will reduce crime in the area, even if no camera is in sight.

should a bouncer actually check people’s IDs? yeah, that’d be nice. but a bouncer that just stands there and does fuck all is much better than no bouncer at all

turnitin once highlighted my page numbering as plagiarism

a cheap phone today is better than a digital camera from 15-20 years ago. but neither can stand up to analogue cameras that use film. we can extract 4k video from footage shot on film in the 80’s (any film footage really, but i mention 80’s because the music video for Last Christmas available on youtube in 4k is a wonderful example)

how is it physically possible to fit a 120mm lens into a phone?

the state as an idea is bad yes i agree. but there are better and worse states, and if i have to live in a state because us anarchists can’t organsie well enough to create a state-less society, then i’d rather live in a better state rather than a bad one

idea: we do the whole leftist infighting thing after we win against the common enemy, deal?

is this loss?

from now on we should only send pacifistic asexual (sex repulsed to be specific, i know you kinky aces exist you can’t hide) vegetarians to space

Ravioooli!

just add a swearword anywhere in your search and Google’s AI gets offended. i never thought the overt sanitisation of the internet would actually be helpful, but here we are

for some reason i had to force my brain to read “sings slipknot” because the only thing i saw was “silksong”

Davinci, Einstein, and Skłodowska-Curie

i want to have a walk with Davinci and see how he sees the world

i want to vibe with Einstein and see how well we click (i think he’d be a good friend)

and i want to chillout with Skłodowka-Curie and chat in Polish about stuff

i like science, but i’m nowhere near a level where i could make a conversation about their passions they’d find interesting, so i’m happy to listen and see their mind work
