I've been boycotting Amazon since 2004. Waiting for everybody else to see it too. ... See it yet?!?? Everybody?!??

i guess we all should have fought back on internet censorship, rather than fallen back on "well i can still vpn".

Best utter "Computer, end program." from time to time, just to be sure.

Ladies, get real, get self respect, and aim higher than being given princess treatment.

Because of Adobe's hatred and abuse of their users, Adobe lost millions of dollars.

Dear Microsoft,

Could you please squeeze your users a little harder yet.

We're eager for the year of the linux desktop.

Yep. When I looked up the term, I got this summary:

Tofu dreg is a Chinese slang term, literally meaning "tofu residue," used metaphorically to describe poorly constructed buildings or infrastructure that are structurally unsound and prone to collapse. The phrase was first coined by former Chinese Premier Zhu Rongji in 1998 during a visit to Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province, where he criticized flimsy flood defenses as being "as weak as tofu dregs."

"I wouldn't like to be caught without a second backup." -- Miles Edward O'Brian, Chief of Operations, Deep Space Nine. ("The O'Brian Principle").

"" -- Every free software advocate who has been on about this during the entire past 20 years and up to twice that, warning us about these kind of things.

Either the user controls the...

This new CAPTCHA's prejudicial and exclusionary.

Not to mention grotesquely invasive.

Heh. 27, the very age I decided there was one drink I would never drink any more... the next one. (Went t-total.)

Oh noes!

Every item on the list, I have.

I must be one of those dangerous violent extremists the TV warns us about! :O

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez problems?

oh!

so is that how we'll be rid of billionaires?

Thanks for looking out for those who did not immediately see it as a whimsical fabrication.

Linux very much is obscure

To paraphrase Bill Hicks about drugs...

See, I think drugs Linuxes have done some good things for us! I really do. And if you don't believe drugs Linuxes have done good things for us, do me a favor. Go home tonight, take all your albums bookmarks, all your tapes links and all your CDs websites and burn 'em. 'Cause you know what? The musicians servers who made host all that great music web content that's enhanced your lives throughout the years?

Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreal fuckin' high hosted on drugs Linux.

:3 Well, that nearly worked. n_n

(I had intended to add a "they[servers]'re all running linux" meme^1^... but failed to find... instead, this'll do nicely too...)

Heh. Just noticed on this lemmy instance I'm on,

1. Uploading or posting content that is illegal in Denmark, is prohibited.

Without people pushing back on such things as this criminalisation of VPNs, how long before people wouldn't even be able to post about it?

Daunting bubble of censorship making a malignant cancer of ignorance.

;)

*Searches how old Chipotle is*

Chipotle Mexican Grill was founded in 1993, making it 32 years old as of December 2025

Oh wow! Thomas Paine was alive in my lifetime!?

;D lol.

Welcome to USA, I guess.

In other countries, you could probably completely fill a fridge with insulin for $800.

Still the bad joke of the world here.

Biggest prison population, most "asset forfeiture", most chemically polluted "food" supply, paying the most for worst healthcare, relatively non-existent public transport, hegemonic oligarchy pretending to be democracy spreading democracy by "regime change", "education" system indoctrinating insularity and ignorance,

[Edit + these the LLM added for me because it's an exhausting list to manually write] mass shootings as a cultural pastime, student debt as a life sentence, "freedom" measured in gun ownership but not in healthcare access, military budget bigger than the next ten countries combined, "infrastructure week" as a recurring punchline, two-party system that’s just one party with two heads, "justice" system that’s a revolving door for the rich and a trapdoor for the poor, "American Dream" now just a subscription service with hidden fees, [Edit: and the list can go on for at least twice as long again yet.]

and a corporate monopoly media to bind peoples minds by.

... "land of the free", "USA number one!".
