Women in the US are doing that too.

I guess it works, to a point. If your man throws a Shapiro-esque fit over this movie he probably isn't great to be around the rest of the time.

I had fallen off a bit anyway; the amount of click baiting had gone through the roof, quality of videos plateaued. Now caught dead to rights on poor journalistic integrity and allegations of sexual harassment in the workplace?

All so that I can drool over graphics cards I can't afford? Easy choice to unsubscribe.

Be better, LTT

I'm no expert, but I think it's got something to do with prolonged exposure to the sun

The suspect was also killed by police shortly after...

Can't say I feel bad for him, but I'm guessing his death is cold comfort to the family & friends of the victim.

A Google shows that they actually approved something similar back and April and got sued for it, but I haven't been able to figure out how that lawsuit went/is going.

This seems a preposterously terrible decision...

Jesus. The GOP is really trying to salt the Earth with two entire generations...

If the sex worker is consenting without duress and is being treated well (I recognize that's a big 'if') then I'm fine with it. I have no inherent objections to sex work itself so it would feel like a double standard to judge the people who use it.

Unfortunately the moral waters are muddied by the rampant trafficking, drug abuse, etc. within the industry.

Oh, neat. My state did something not completely stupid. I've got some reservations about nuke power as opposed to renewable, but this is definitely better than continuing fossil fuels.

I think the big deal will be if it's sustained. Losing a bunch of users for a month isn't a big deal if they come back, or at least stop leaving. If Reddit loses 3% of its users every month for a year then things will be pretty dire for them.

Can't say I've got much sympathy for Reddit, though.

Hardly the first time someone has smiled in a mugshot, guilty or innocent.

If found innocent then it takes on an 'I told you so' energy. If guilty it makes you look like an even bigger piece of shit.

I wouldn't be surprised if the severity of their situation hasn't fully set in yet. The realization will come crashing down if/when the first of them is found guilty.

Yeah, I dropped Spotify when they started plastering my home screen with ads for podcasts that I didn't want to listen to. If there had even just been a way to hide them after the fact, but no. I guess they really needed to justify the deal with Joe Rogan.

Be reasonable. I supported Bernie too, but I don't think Hillary would have plotted an insurrection...

It's a bit conceited off him to assume he knows what's best for his viewers. A review is supposed to give unbiased, timely, and accurate information about a product and let the customer decide if it's worth their money. A reviewer can give opinions, of course, but only after the concrete numbers. Linus has no idea what $800 is worth to any given viewer; I bet there are many who would happily pay that much for a custom water block if it was the best on the market. To bad we don't know how good it is because ltt didn't adequately test it.

I bought sync pro and have sync for lemmy installed; there's no way to activate pro right now, and afaik that option is not coming.

Presently you can buy a permanent ad removal in-app for $20, you can subscribe to sync ultra for $17/yr, or you can use it free with ads.

It's a good app, and the dev absolutely deserves to make money. If I understand correctly, developing sync is his full-time job. The prices are definitely steeper than with sync for reddit, but Lemmy is a much smaller community. He can't necessarily expect as many sales.

Of course everyone involved knows they will face consequences, but they may feel those consequences are better than the payments. Courts can't garnish paychecks that don't exist and a ruined credit rating only matters if you were ever going to be able to afford to buy a house or car in the first place. Afaik actual jail time isn't really a thing for defaulting on a loan. If the only leverage the government has to get people to pay the loan is to threaten their future financial security, then anyone who thinks the initial promises of security is bogus has nothing to lose.

There's also some people who are willing to take the hit just to send a political message.

That said, I suspect nowhere near 62% of borrowers will actually meaningfully boycott in any way.

I used to watch the wan show, but stopped because Linus was frankly becoming pretty unrelatable. It's sad to see them lose the plot like this, but I'm not surprised. I think Lmg has been growing far faster than they could keep ahead of, and the train is off the rails now...

It doesn't. Encryption keys are not code and are not copyrightable. Distributing them is also not illegal. The word "proprietary" here is meaningless at best and dishonest at worst.

Of course actually using that key to circumvent drm may be illegal, but I'm no lawyer. Send like that would be on Dolphin's users anyway.

Food for thought: if Nintendo genuinely thought they had a good legal argument against Dolphin, why wouldn't they just send them a cease and desist directly instead of just getting them kicked off Steam?

Don't let perfect be the enemy of good. A large portion of Georgia's power comes from natural gas; anything we can do to move away from that is a step in the right direction. Except, like, coal obviously.

While screaming and beating their family.

I've never seen a "Biden 2024 make conservatives cry again" bumper sticker, but that kind of toxicity is commonplace in the republican party

Wow that video is insufferable... What does this actually have to do with cars? I don't see how people being too lazy to put a shopping cart back is really relevant to this sub

Edit: community, not sub. Gonna be a while till I fully work out all of the redditisms.
