I got banned from r/unpopularopinion circa 2015 for trolling. I submitted a post saying that only because something is on Netflix, doesn’t mean that it is automatically good. I got downvoted to hell and a lot of comments showing counter-examples, now that I think about, it must’ve been Netflix PR team.

Anyhow, decided to delete my account that was prior to the Digg migration, then made a new one, but never posted again. Now I’m here and loving it!

I saw an image edit with a Toyota Prius badge and I legit liked it

last week in the subway, there were two people chatting right at the base of the escalator, other passengers were awkwardly shoving past them.

When I got to them I said “you are going to take the escalator or not?” they didn’t reply, but quickly jump into the escalator, then they got out they just stood there continuing talking, at the top. I naturally got shoved into them and told me to look where I was going.

it can be disabled on android, look under emergency broadcasts or wireless emergency alerts

on enterprise, HPE has a similar solution with through iLO, which is not free, of course

I upgraded to a 5700X3D for €200 two years ago and I’m very happy with my decision to upgrade my ageing AM4 desktop. I know that the difference is marginal to the 5800X3D, but I am seriously considering buying one, if the price is reasonable, just to keep my current computer alive just a little bit longer.

I audibly gasped when the trailer announced it will come out on the Switch 1. Got it on day one

I have a similar story to share.

When I was in my early 20s I briefly dated a girl who told me she was having feelings for another woman and was being curious, she eventually broke up with me in order to be with her, but we remained good friends after that.

Eventually she came out as a lesbian and when I told her that I was bi she immediately ended our friendship all even yelled some slurs at me.

AFAIK she’s married with a guy and has kids now

I just migrated my personal projects to Codeberg (and sent a donation their way too!). As soon as I update the origins on my servers I’ll be deleting my GitHub account.

The one FOSS project I contribute to was already being hosted on GitLab to begin with. And my work just announced we’ll be migrating to GitLab as well.

Today is a good day

I’m keeping the typo just because your comment made me laugh, thanks, I needed it

one doesn’t believe he will actually do it, the other one, idk

In my country there’s a guy running for president who wants to revoke women’s right to vote. He is not super popular in the pools, but for some mad reason both my sisters support him.

edit: I’m keeping the typo

I’ve been looking into migrating to Tidal, what other better alternatives are out there?

The only reason I stuck with Spotify for so long is because I don’t really pay for it (long story short, a family member gets a free family plan through her job)

This meme is almost 20 years old

Totally punk, you know what isn’t? being an elitist about a music genres, specially punk

correct, should’ve clarified, I was big into what was at the time, old-school punk. As I was not alive in the late 70s.

I welcomed the punk-rock wave of the 90s with open arms.

I remember being hyped about it since I was a huge fan of Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland, even told some friends to keep an eye on it. I recall watching the premiere of the first episode and even telling more friends about it.

Then the entire thing became super popular before Season 1 was over and then… well you know what happened. I continued watching after Roiland was gone and the show popularity declined, but I am absolutely staying as far away as possible from that fandom

I was really into punk music when I was a kid since the late 80s/early 90s, then the big boom happened in the mid-late 90s, which eventually yielded to pop punk and emo music from the early 2000s. I kid you not, I was bullied as a kid for liking punk music, before it became mainstream.

I still listen to it and I’ve even seen a resurgence coming as it coinciding with the 20 year nostalgia cycle, which is great in my opinion. But being a punk fan before it achieved mainstream success and after it went into decline by 2010s made me feel exactly as this post describes.

I’m on the same boat, I got 2016 around Eternal release date for like €10 and loved it. Then I bought Eternal just last year for a similar deal and I haven’t finished the DLC yet. I am more than happy to wait for DA to go on sale.

I sent a department wide email announcing a new release on an internal piece of software my team maintains, it was very concise, almost like a telegram, it was something like:

To everyone at this department:

Internal Software version 6 has been released.

Added support for ABC feature and fixed the issue with XYZ.

Full details in this link.

Kinds regards, me.

Shortly after I got a very verbose response by someone explaining me why should I use AI to write “better” emails, by better it meant longer and verbose. I replied with this comic
