It’s still Dec 31st.

Edit: Greetings all timezones east of here! It is now Jan 1st, and it is YOU who is behind!

GREETINGS FROM THE FUTURE!!! IT TASTES LIKE CHOCOLATE!!! but that might be because it’s cold as balls outside, so I’m having a salted caramel hot chocolate with marshmellows.

What? Yes I’m 42, but it’s fucking delicious!

Why couldn’t it have been Earth???

Wild orgies.

Most Bond villains are just eccentric billionaires using Sci-Fi technologies to become trillionaires through commodity speculation.

You just described Elon Musk.

Are you saying you get smarter as you drink? Or that you need a drink to forget your embarassment?

Ok, NOW the shower thought makes a lot more sense.

Kids crush them into powder, and snort it like coke.

At least we did in the 80s…

Because if you show the original video, thats copyright infringement, and pirating of content.

Show the “reaction”, and it falls within fair use. Even if the reactor doesn’t DO anything.

You got me like oooOOOoooo!!!

Nope. I lived with a girl, and we got cats. Lived with her for the next 4 years with those cats.

We fell apart as a couple. I assumed she was going to take the cats. I wasn’t stopping her. But she wanted nothing to do with the cats.

Which, truth be told, was the outcome I wanted anyways. The cats always loved me more than her.

But for the next 10 years, anytime they’d be sleeping, and I’d pet them, they always snapped their heads up to see who it is.

It’s me. It’s always me.

I can get why they’d have that reaction for the first year. Still in the habbit of multiple people living with them.

But they ALWAYS checked, everytime, until the day they died. They were happy to see me, everytime, but they still checked.

…anyone got a nuke?

Found one. Took me 10 seconds. Super expensive though.

Yeeeeaaaaah. Kids today are just too busy with their skibidi toilet, and their school shooting drills. We didn’t have either of those things when I was a kid. You know what we had??? Jurassic Park! And Jurassic Park is awesome!

Remember when Toys R Us had a giant stack of these, being sold for like $5 each? I think Dreamcast was either already out, or just around the corner. And I said “That game looks cool. Too bad I’ll never get to play it…”

Yep. That tracks.

When reddit first started, it almost failed because there was no content.

So what they did was had staff members post, and reply to each other. They made sure to reply to any actual new people. And then they did this from hundreds of automated accounts.

They simulated activity to promote actual real activity.

I know everyone will disagree with me, but I’d say DON’T flag them as bots. If the bots fool humans, and cause growth of the fediverse/lemmy? Great. In time you can turn off the bots. But only once actual humans are here.

Something like 173 million users.

A bowl is most usefull when it is empty serving your personal data to our overlords, the corporations.

That is an important step, yes.

However another important step is that the default distro needs to basically not even highlight that terminal exists.

If you’re trying to learn how to use linux, and step 1 of the tutorial is “open terminal”, you will lose 97% of your new install base. Then headlines will flood that linux machines are being returned in high numbers.

As much as you guys hate to hear this, the first experience for a new linux user needs to be intuitive. Before they even turn the machine on, they have to know how to use this software. Not because they are experts, but because the space and experience guides itself.

Then as you learn, you can customize a bit more, and from there linux can become a rabbit hole. But the point is, let the individual user control the depths which they dive. Because I suspect 90%+ won’t even change the desktop background. And thats ok.

Make it easy for the dummies, but then you individually can tinker if you want to. And it’s linux, so…ya know. Go nuts. But some people don’t want to do all that tinkering. That vanilla experience is what gets remembered to represent that OS. Even if you customized it and experienced it very differently.
