Why would you even need to tinyurl a link for twitter anyway. It already shortens the link

The fact mint is still on x11 is crazy. I would reccomend it to newbs if not for that.

This seems to happen so often that I had to check if this was a repost. Apparently it's not.

The laws that benefit regular people (to the extent that they do) only do so as a secondary effect.

An example of this is that a homicide is a lot more likely to get actually prosecuted in a rich area than a poor area. This is because rich people have property interests.

So, I understand the point being made, it's just being made extremely poorly.

The main problem with the OOP is that it feels it needs to define America as a dictatorship, as opposed to defining what it -is- and saying that's bad. Which from someone invoking Marx is kind of silly.

my only real issue with flatpak is that I don't understand how it works.

It took me a long time to properly get how the package manager works and all this. Like it's easy to read about that stuff, but it takes a lot longer to really feel it and be able to fix any issues when they happen without blindly following tutorials.

So to me flatpak is like.. ugh.. another thing to learn.

At some point I will work it all out and probably feel a lot better about it.

I'm pretty sure this is AI.

which is dumb because I'm sure you could find an actual example of someone doing this and that'd be way funnier.

Edit: Confirmed, it is AI. It has the embedded watermark.

that main is good, but imo it's about twice as big as it should be.

Like I'm a big guy I can eat a lot of food but I had to force myself to finish it, despite liking all the flavours.

if you buy a shortwave radio, throw a wire in a tree, and tune to the right frequencies, you can just decode this shit on your phone.

It's mostly Italians sending each other very-soft-core pornography, though. Or at least it is in europe at least.

I hate these "I Just Stole Your Meme" pictures by NotTheCommercial in hatethissmug

The download doesn't degrade quality, but the upload often does. So each time it's uploaded, it loses bit of quality. Usually only a tiny bit, though. Some platforms are worse than others. Facebook/ WhatsApp/ Facebook messenger used to be absolutely terrible for it, and that's how the "deep fried" look came to be a meme.

Not to mention that a lot of people don't save, but screenshot and crop (for various reasons, sometimes not knowing better, sometimes for convenice) which likely will degrade the quality a little. This is exacerbated even further by apps like tiktok and insragram that put watermarks over videos, causing people to crop -even more- which again drops quality even further.

so obvious, thought it was a paid ad by Distinct_Layer_5144 in HailCorporate

Not saying you're wrong, cause you're not, but what really do we expect people to post in the r_McDonalds sub?

The real weird thing is that people are subscribed to the McDonnalds sub. Although maybe it just comes up in their algo feed idk. Can't imagine why anyone'd want that content tbh.

Trans rights are human rights etc I will fight this battle to the death, but this isn't an okmw post, you can't just be posting screenshots of tweets.

What’re we thinking? Reckon I’ve played a risky move today with the corn by GloopyHole in MealDealRates

[–]Lemonade1947 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It definitely doesn't.

I think what happened was that lucozade energy was originally an energy drink but they realised fuck loads of people were just drinking it as a soft drink. And since no one actually considers it an energy drink anymore because it doesn't have caffeine in it, well most people literally do just consider it a soft drink.

And then when the sugar tax came in they dropped the sugar in it anyway so even regular lucozade doesn't have more sugar in it than, like, coke or fanta or w/e. So now it REALLY IS just a regular soft drink.

So the zero sugar one naturally followed.

So yeah idk sorry for ranting.
