If Discord was open source, I actually would not mind paying a fee for it. Fixed or reccurring, ideally the former. But that’s never happening. And forget buying that Nitro thing.

Until a viable alternative is presented, I doubt Discord will die anytime soon. Part of the problem is people have a hard time accepting that even if you make the best meal in town, you’ve gotta get people to step inside before they’ll try it. To an extent, this does involve winning a popularity contest of sorts if you want Discord to die.
I think often times folks are torn between enjoying a space/app as is, and making compromises to attract a larger group. IMO Linux has the same issue and that’s part of why die hard fanboys get so aggressively defensive when this is brought up.
It’s the software equivalent of being the bitter "nice guy" that simultaneously wants to attract a girlfriend (users) but is kind of an asshole to women. You might think you don’t stink but please wear deodorant.
Agreed. Lemmy has its own issues .
Makes me with Proton had their own password manager.
Subscribed. Thank you
Because you’re making stuff up. Literally every install of an OS has some little issue here and there-- but this is my mistake for assuming any Linux community could be humble enough to cut the BS and stop acting like Linux is a flawless experience. I’m out, keep hanging out at that ~5% market cap and wondering why folks don’t flock over despite it being free.
He’s delusional. Someone earlier said they think he’ll go bankrupt in 3 years but IMO we’re more likely to see this guy OD or die of heart failure. His kids are going to be thrilled when he dies, that’s for sure.
Sakura Micron 8. Don’t care if it was meant for art and not writing, I love these things.
If mechanical pencils count, then… Rotring 600.
That said, the highest achieving people I went to school with just used shitty Bic pens while folks like me wasted time trying to find the perfect pen.
Hi. This place has a lot of dead communities and people seem too afraid to be the first to make a post or comment. It’s kinda lame, like going to a party hosted by someone who doesn’t know how to host a party.
Like the hobbyist channels are sooooooo boring.
I don’t believe it works “flawlessly” and I’m tired of people exaggerating their experience in such a misleading way. There’s always some hitches and I don’t get why people basically have to cake their OS experience with makeup like this.
Talked a friend out of suicide when COVID first hit and a bunch of people lost their jobs and homes. Now he’s got a pretty sweet work from home job with full benefits and his own place again. Am very happy for him.
I don’t believe I said otherwise. America absolutely has a history of foreign meddling and assassinations. I just wish the discussion went beyond this and people said why they do or don’t like him.
So you believe PBS isn’t verifying their sources and it just airing Israel’s narrative?
And again, do you seriously believe any sane news outlet is going to out their sources in this context? Why didn’t you answer the first time I asked this? You know what you’re doing-- you’re pulling the Trump tactic of saying "any anonymous source saying something I don’t like is lying"
Sources close to the investigation said the captives had been shot in the head in the southern city of Rafah.
Do you expect a media outlet to name its sources in a situation like this?
Also you’re more than welcome to search up the many news articles reporting in on this instead of being a smarmy little weirdo. Israel’s ministry of health also confirmed that they were shot in the head, as confirmed in their autopsy. Given the fact that these people have families who will want to see their bodies, I highly doubt Israel is lying about how they were killed.
But yeah, what’s with the BS snark? So sick and tired of this Mean Girls garbage on Lemmy, it’s so cringy.
I feel like I don’t know enough about Maduro to judge him one way or the other, and I think it’s too simple-minded to just settle on "America doesn’t like him so he must be a man of the people" because that’s an easy way to accidentally overlook all kinds of heinous shit.
Also Maduro got ripped off. $13M for a used Dassault 900EX that’s hot? Wack.

I don’t have any official report but most media outlets’ sources all claim the hostages were shot in the head.
Edit: Here since you guys are fucking babies and can’t be bothered to look up news articles but somehow can be bothered to cry when someone posts a source you don’t like, have a PBS link
Now I’ll wait for someone to cry about that link too because it’s "funded by the Biden administration" or some garbage. I swear you people are like the online equivalent of a grown ass man who can’t cook but is also a picky eater.
I read earlier this morning that the autopsy revealed multiple headshot wounds that were obviously fatal. I agree with you on the last part-- I saw an interview last night with the brother of one of the victims and he was quite critical of Netanyahu, pretty much saying it’s entirely his fault.
Weren’t the bodies found with multiple gunshots to the head, according to the autopsy?
The Israeli Health Ministry said autopsies determined the hostages were shot at close range and died on Thursday or Friday.
In other articles, the ministry says the autopsy revealed gunshot wounds to the head.
I started smoking when I was 13 because it was the only way one could take their shift break without being interrupted/called back into work. Before I smoked, my breaks would constantly get interrupted and I’d be called to do work but after I started smoking? No one dared to break the sacred rule of “don’t fuck with someone’s smoke break”.
20+ years later and I’m still smoking 😎 and hopelessly addicted. I hate it.
And Dollar General is part of the problem, constantly selling garbage-tier products that reek of planned obsolescence. Their entire business model relies on predatory practices that screw over the poorer US consumers they speak of.
Some good news: Dollar General’s stock price has been tanking hard since around the end of 2022.
Edit: Also thanks OP for providing a paywall-free link, very much appreciated. I clicked the original link and thought "damnit, if only OP posted a link witho–oooooh, OP did!".
