You joke, but in Malaysia, they do have a car named after the local word for mouse deers, kancil (the “c” is pronounced as a “ch”). I learned to drive in one of those.looks like this

After trying a search, opened Lemmy to see if it was my connection, immediately see this meme. Thanks for the troubleshooting confirmation Lemmy

That’s exactly how I think of it, so strange someone downvoted you

In my part of the world all we’re getting are heat waves. Please stop, Ra 😢

That was absolutely amazing, calm, to the point, poignant and just straight truth while on the literal front lines of the protest. Part of me wants a shortened “highlights” version that’s easily shareable to help spread this but at the same time just about everything said feels important.

I hope his message and that of the other protesters gets across to as many people as possible

I see where people might think that if you’re just looking at the immediate context from the October 7th attacks, but I urge you to look into the conditions Palestinian people had been living under for decades, especially in Gaza. Rather than vengeance, when you look into the history, the October 7th attacks feel more like an excuse to go full throttle into carrying out what the Israeli government and hardcore Zionists already been trying to do for a while now.

Took my meme addled brain way too long to remember Chad is also a country

You’re having trouble managing all your usernames and passwords? Have you tried another app to manage all of them? /s (but also I do like my password manager)

Wanted to look up the account and see for myself and apparently he’s parodying NFT bros. A bit disappointed…

On March 29th, 2024, following the post’s virality, Twitter user @AdamBumas[6] was among many who reported that @vydamos’ post was not sincere and that he was poking fun at other NFT holders who were expressing anger at the plummeting value of their apes at the time.

Who knew I’d find breaking news on Know Your Meme

I love how it looks like the cat is looking at the empty box thinking "Yo wtf???”

This makes a lot of sense to me, the US has a good long history of being anti-communist so anything moving close to that has been villanized to the point that any kind of socialist idea faces push back and true leftist views go under-represented. It does feel like the overall movement in the US has been to the right though, but that could be my own recency bias.

Honest question, not trying to start an argument or anything, but what is extreme left when we’re talking about the current political landscape actually? Cause when I look at US politics I don’t see anything close to what I’d consider extreme going on on the left side. Maybe individual people with no significant political power talking about overthrowing the whole capitalist system but yeah, they don’t seem to have any actual political power.

I’ve had the reverse issue, where I wanted to input a large amount of text for ChatGPT to work with. Tried to do a workaround where part of my prompt was that I was going to give it more information in parts. No matter how I phrased things it would always try to start working with whatever I gave it with the first prompt so I just gave up and did it myself.

Took me a second.

But man, I don’t write academic papers anymore, but I have to write a lot of reports and such for my work and I’ve tried to use different LLM’s to help and almost always the biggest help is just in making me go “Man, this sucks, it should be more like this.” and then I proceed to just write the whole thing with the slight advantage of knowing what a badly written version looks like.

I’ve been using this a few months and recommend it as well. It’s serviceable but feels a bit janky. Scrolling and switching between view styles tends to leave black boxes on my device, and the UI doesn’t always disappear while scrolling. But I’d still recommend it for how light and fast it is on top of being FOSS

Truth. I was genuinely angry seeing how Spotify kept trying to buy up everything podcast related. Felt like I was screaming into the void about how platform exclusive podcasts are antithetical to the free and open nature of podcasts. I hope their billions of dollars invested into podcasts continue to bite them in the butts.

Somehow I think Podcasts will survive enshittification. The basis is just RSS and file hosting, so at its core, it’s possible to create and distribute podcasts without huge capital investment. There’s always gonna be some people trying to get their voices out and Podcasts still seems to be the easiest way to do that so until some better method comes out, podcasts will live on.

If you’re talking about Podcast networks, streaming services, ad networks, then yeah, those might face some kind of enshittification and destruction, but no matter what, I’m pretty confident some good podcasts, and some good ways to listen to them, will stick around.

I used to sail the seas like freakin Luffy, but Netflix and Steam (plus becoming a wage earning adult) got me on the straight and narrow for a good long while. Then when all the different services started to compete I started dipping my toes in the water again with some sense of guilt. But after various struggles getting Netflix running in different locations I frequent and my parents not being able to use my account anymore, I have no shame flying the Jolly Roger.

You’ve described my perfect smart watch. I hate the rush for features and better brighter touch screens when all I want is a non intrusive notification device that won’t accidentally call my boss fat when my wrist grazes any other part of my skin.

The Pebble was too good and spoiled my opinion of every smart watch I’ve used since.

Makes me think of how every MTG headline the past few years had me wondering what Wizards of the Coast messed up this time.
