On the flipside, the American exceptionalism on the Lemmys is par for the course…

The first language I tried to learn as a kid was Batch scripting…

(edit: and then some VBScript along the way! Eventually worked my way to C++ though)

Either my instance updated recently, or I didn’t notice it at the bottom of the block page. So useful thank you!!! No more lemmynsfw spam!

Where is this? I’m moving there immediately.

Space isn’t meant to be the next capitalist playground, which is what we are trying to do.

Regardless of what it’s “meant” to be it will be the final capitalist playground.

Am perfectly fine cutting that behaviour out of my life and my social circle.

This sentence feels so performative and cringey, and yet it still must be said aloud because even my ex-friend to this day defends a similarly shitty guy with a well-documented pattern of abuse.

Well said.

Some think it’s a radical approach, but I don’t see it that way. For all its capabilities, the Internet isn’t real and neither are the relationships we have with people on numerous sites that form its social aspect. Thus, there’s really little logic in giving people second chances, wasting time, attention and effort for them, trying to get through their attitudes and suffering to reach “real” them.

You’re absolutely correct.

I think that saying that someone “failed at life” is a bit stupid because, they would do exactly what you recommend in your own comment; they would give friends & family a second chance:

Regardless of who I cut out though, there is ALWAYS room to come back if they change and grow up.

I’m still hoping my mom will before she passes… : /

Maybe you see things differently, but perhaps there is something more interesting and constructive you could say than: “You both failed at life.”

Of course, arguing online is pretty fun… haha! :)

Website…

I didn’t have to, but I did. You seem to care enough to write a reply?

Yea I’m just blocking this community. I’m tired of seeing this shit on my feed.

What has any of that got to do with the video?

I can work with that, thanks!

Japan?

*reads bio*

Japan.

EDIT: this was my experience in Japan as well: deny the plastic bag from the worker, to buy a plastic bag of 2 apples, individually wrapped in plastic, with the plastic foam sleeves to prevent bruising… and yet Japan still has less single-use plastic waste than America!
