I might come across as an obsolete dinosaur (which I probably am) - but I really enjoyed the tracks from Hitman game series, especially Exploration from Hitman 2 : Silent Assasin, and then became a fan of anything composed by Jesper Kyd.

I hate you. How do I unsee that now?

I love you brother…

“galactic balls” - I am so going to use this phrase…

Linkedin is Facebook with a necktie and a blazer on.

Agree? (Lol)

Privacy is not binary, it is a spectrum.

You have no fucking idea what a beautiful thing you just wrote.

Not an email service per se, but rather an email-forwarding service, and offers unlimited duck [dot] com aliases with their browser extension and/or mobile app.

I have used their email forwarding service for a while (it is quite decent) before moving over to Firefox Relay.

And if you wsnt a FOSS option for unlimited email aliases - Duckduckgo is a good option.

Logically yes, downloading or a sharing a digital file is a “lost sale” - but as Aaron Swartz said - “lost sales” are also caused by Earthquakes, Libraries/DVD Rentals, Negative Yelp reviews, Market Competitors, and so on. Why just blame it on file sharing…

I don’t exactly recall when or where I heard/read this quote, but man it is dope

• “it should not be a concern when people pirate your content, it should be when people don’t even want to pirate your content”

I hope you noticed that the key phrase in your comment is “your content”

Good luck claiming any of the content on the streaming platforms as “your”

What’s that about only getting 720p though?

They were sold to ZippoApps, who specializes in adding crapware to apps.

What else would we expect anyway…

I do exactly the same. I always opt for the earliest free prime delivery available, even for just one item in my order.

Fuck their Amazon delivery day and No rush shipping. “Delivery in fewer trips to your home” ? I have exactly zero fucks to give - I need my stuff as early as possible as my prime membership will let me, even if at 4 AM in the morning, because I am freaking paying for it.

And “green for the environment” my ass - I know they don’t care about environment, and I don’t care about the gas tank of their delivery vans.

to see if it was worthwhile.

If you are done with what you were set out to do, then sure, upgrade it if it’s free.

Yeah I agree. Let them die alone, thinking about Alien abduction and crop circles.

“Stilted”?

You sir, are one of those fucking amazing people who profusely apologize for not being a native English speaker and then blurt out 37 paragraphs of perfect English.

You have nothing to be ashamed of - your English is better than a lot of them native speakers ! And always remember this :

“You are speaking English because that is the only language you know; I am speaking English because that is the only language you know. We are not the same.”

And as to your original question - if I ever ask them “what evidence did you see which proves X happens?”, I have almost always been hit with the reply, “Oh yeah? What proof do you have that says X does not happen???”. And then I tell them the anecdote of the Invisible Dragon by Carl Sagan. Look it up if this is new to you, and for a more formal treatment, check out Karl Popper’s theory of Falsifiability.

I have personally converted at least one conspiracy theorist to being an Agnostic. So I know it works. Try them out, it’s fun.

And I also am not a native English speaker to be honest :-)

Europix for me above anything else. Netflix and Disney can go and self-serve their backsides…

Agreed.

One other thing that Jerboa has but very few other apps do - is the ability to automatically retrieve and put in the header of an article when you are about to post a URL of that article. IMO this is a basic feature that every app should have.

I use Jerboa as well as my main lemmy client (Voyager being the stand by). I like the vintage feel of Jerboa, at the same time can’t deny the fact that Jerboa is the oldest and battle-tested client among all.

The only thing Jerboa is missing is a complete search functionality (currently it just searches for communities).

As soon as the capability to search for posts and communities (IIRC a bug was raised in Jan 2022 for this by dessalines himself) - Jerboa will arguably be the best lemmy app around.
