Masturbator here. Can confirm spit as lube.

Please don’t leave your dark cave.

Start furiously punching EVERYBODY

And a person with THOSE hobbies is on Lemmy??? Well I for one am shocked. SHOCKED I SAY!!!

…not that shocked actually. Next you’ll tell us your linux distro, and a fight will ensue over which distro you should switch to.

How to wisely use $75.

Step 1) Send it to me.

There is no step 2.

As someone who grew up in the 80s, but never watched J.I. Joe…what?

Also, does the show actually recognize Sgt. Slaughter defecting to Iraq?

See, I like this.

I don’t have diabetes. Either type. But I said when I first got to Lemmy that it was very very heavy on tech and politics.

I said in order to grow we need more everything else. The example I used was I have no interest in gardening. But we should get a gardening community. Then I said I don’t know how to play guitar, but there should be a community for guitar players. These communities would not interest me personally. But they’re a sign of a healthy growing platform.

Last night I was browsing ALL and saw a post from a community called “Stop Drinking”. I’m not an alcoholic. I drink on occasion. But I thought it was really cool that community exists. They have a daily post where people pledge to not drink for the day. Taking things one day at a time. I think thats cool. I like that exists for those who need it.

And now this. I don’t have diabetes. This community won’t be of interest to me personally. But I think it’s cool this exists. I don’t know if a type 2 diabetes exists. Quite frankly I’m a bit ignorant on the difference between 1 and 2 is. I used to think type 1 was sugar levels too low and need sugar suppliments, while type 2 was too high, and need inculin shots to level it out. I was told thats wrong. In any event, I hope there is a type 2 community too.

All the communities for all the people! The way I see it, every interest no matter how niche, should get a community. Now granted some of them won’t have as big of a userbase, but that’s ok.

There should be a community for people who still collect POGS. Remember POGS? They should be back. In Lemmy form.

I’m getting off track. My point is, I like that this community exists for those who need it. Keep up with existing!

Not all. Just a huge chunk.

We won’t see the peak until society collapses and all the systems required to fuel that technology fall apart.

We’re currently at a point in history where scientists agree is past the tipping point for global warming, and now data centers are using obscene amounts of water to cool their AI machines.

We have unmarked “government officials”, kidnapping people off the street. Fascism is on the rise world wide.

How is this moment in time not the exact definition of what you’re describing?

I’m not saying either way what has you tired and anxious, so definately still see a doctor. But have you also considered the fact that society itself is now built on the foundation that people need to suffer for billionaires to rub their nipples? You may feel the way you do because gestures to everything all of this is fucked up.

Money.

2032 actually. The year of alien invasion.

The upside is, trumps home planet will finally take him back. You thought that orange skin wasn’t natural? It is. It oozes out of his pours.

I think peak was XP.

Vista was shit. 7 was alright, but not better than XP. 8 was terrible. 10 was worse than 7, but still meh. 11 is dog shit.

Actually, recent trends have shown a dramatic decrease in birth. This is why in the last 10 years republicans are trying to break roe v wade. They want more future workers to exploit.

Amen. Praise be to our savior, Sir Mix-a-lot.

Yeah, ok…but only eliminates SOME of the other industries.

For example, you wouldn’t think ad sales as a sexually abusive industry. Yet I have it on good authority that google had spez get down on his knees and take cock after cock after cock cumming in his mouth, on his face, in his eyes. And as much as he was gagging, they just kept going. Cum everywhere. Bukake ritual to seal the deal on their AI agreement.

Then angry german women in leather came in with massive strapons the size of a forearm. Ramming every inch into him. As he cried and cried, while she smacked his balls with a ping pong paddle.

What? I thought you guys always said fuck spez?

And cumming…and cumming…and cumming…

Maybe I’m stupid, but, I don’t see system requirements. I see it’s linux compatible. I have a retroid flip 2, the snapdragon 865 version, with rocknix. So it’s running native linux. Think that could handle your game? I think it has 8gb of ram.

Kind of strange that they abbriviated “to” with “2”.

Even stranger that I still got it right. Unless you’re messing with me. In which case, fair play. I’m totally clueless sometimes.

Drag and drop worked on windows 3.1. That was like the whole thing. “LOOK WHAT YOU CAN DO NOW!”

At this point, I’m fairly sure pissing people off is the point with Windows 11. It’s full of AI no one wants, refuses to officially run on most hardware that people already have, despite running just fine on that same hardware UNofficially, dropped support for drag and drop, doesn’t let you move the taskbar.

And thats not even to mention the fact that it monitors you, and reports back to HQ with screen grabs and usage activity.

Oh look, ZorinOS, just one singular distro, had 1.6 million downloads in the past 2 months.

Wait, is there any special thing that happened 2 months ago? Oh right. Windows 10 support ended, and microsoft told its userbase “fuck you, you can’t get support for windows 10, and this computer can’t update to windows 11. This computer is now trash!”

Suddenly all these youtube videos pop up “Is your PC unable to install windows 11? Try linux!”

And these videos don’t try to sway you to one distro or another. They point out a few big hitters like mint or ubuntu. I can’t imagine them specifically naming zorin, unless it’s a zorin centric video. But I’m talking about the flood of “try linux” videos that popped up in October.

And that 1.6 million is JUST zorin. That’s the runoff. I don’t have numbers, or sources, but gut instinct tells me that if Zorin had 1.6 million downloads, Mint must have had like 5 million minimum. Every video always reccomends Mint. It’s probably overtaken Ubuntu at some point as most used distro.

And all of this, every single bit of user loss has NOTHING to do with linux. Users are angrily switching. Not happily. They feel abandoned, and forced to switch.

If Microsoft either extended Windows 10 support, or allowed Windows 11 to be installed on reasonable hardware, this linux boom DOES NOT HAPPEN. This is Microsoft saying “Yeah bitch, money is tight! Go buy another computer, loser! You’ll do what we say, and there’s nothing you can do to stop us!”

That’s when users switched to linux. This is pure hubris from Microsoft. It would be interesting if somehow we could get a combined number of EVERY distros doenload numbers.
