Hell yeah! The Ubuntu mono is really easy to read, and there aren’t that many sans-serif fonts that differentiate l and I well.

Ich bevorzuge die Option ohne Nitritpökelsatz!

T.T we are

Listened to Kraftwerk’s “Autobahn” today for the first time to a very similar effect. Can’t say I listened to the whole thing, though, considering it’s a 22 minute piece …

As with all (somewhat) natural ingredients, it’s impossible to get 100% consistent results. It’s just when you boil an egg wrong, it’s very unlikely to go up in flames.

Es gibt eine (1) Zitrone in der Fabrik, und sie wird solange in die Mischbottiche getaucht bis sie gammelt. Dann wird eine neue Zitrone gekauft.

I really don’t understand how so many people just put up with it. I actually helped an older relative with it a couple of months ago, he isn’t even the tech-illiterate type. Mere weeks after that, he’s back to using YouTube with ads.

Consider how advertising on any of those platforms looks compared to five or ten years ago.

How does it look? I haven’t braved the web without an adblocker in years.

Nicolas Cage outfits? Like a suit?

They’re definitely lying about the reach of their ads, this already came up a couple of times during elections. Though in the case of elections, it’s more about the precision of their targeting - apparently, a lot of the time they weren’t even able to precisely target the population of specific election districts. Or maybe just unwilling, who knows.

I’m also pretty sure that a lot of advertising clients are not happy that they’re sharing ad space with porn ads and scam ads.

They could have blocked the sub instead of commenting every day and harassing the separate QC-sub that actually liked the comic. In contrast to Lemmy, on Reddit it’s actually really easy to block comics you don’t like, because they were usually posted to their own subs (and possibly even by a separate user, sometimes even the creator themselves like the Extra Fabulous guy) instead of a general sub/community like c/comicstrips.

That’s a valid opinion. Really doesn’t explain the hate-readers, though.

At the start it was pretty hetero and white, IIRC. Dora might always have been bisexual, but it’s easier to ignore if it’s an informed trait rather than something that’s actually visible. But I think the big giveaway that it was never going to go where rightwingers would want it is the way the main character interacted with these people.

There would definitely be a lot of stuff that would need to be doubled, e.g. I would definitely get into trouble with laundry if I tried to clothe two people with my one person wardrobe, and if my clone is an independent being they’ll still want a PC and phone (it would be really complicated to set up some kind of timeshare system, especially if they’re working a separate job - you could have one clone work in the morning and one in the evening, but not everyone is cut out for working late). Bunking would probably work, but that’s going to get real weird if you’re living in a flatshare or with a partner. And oh, sharing a partner would be a huge problem if we’re assuming the clone is an independent being, even if they’re actually a good sport about it in general.

… es ist ein gutes Lied. Aber nicht sicher, ob mich das zum Gewichtheben animieren würde :D

Same angst, but lots more hopes and dreams. That would definitely be a depressing read.

Was bieten die ihm, das er bei der Union nicht auch bekommt?

If you can moderate, it isn’t really an addiction. At least, not by the strict definition. If you use it more colloquially, sure.

I think that doesn’t really work for physical addictions. Even if you can easily stop using because your mind just works that way, if you used an addictive substance for long enough you’ll get withdrawal symptoms.

It became too “woke” compared to its early days (IDK why people who complain about that kind of thing ever read it, it never catered to rightwingers).

That’s definitely part of it, but I think the main issue is that a lot of the new tech in the last 20 years was used to further the far right (e.g. Facebook, Google) and erode civil rights in general (e.g. privacy, right to repair), on top of constant enshittification and ever-shrinking longevity of devices.
