Retro consoles shouldn’t have hard drives, or internet access.

You put the cartridge in, you turn the power on, and you sip your capri sun because it’s 1990, and you’re 7 years old, and the world isn’t a dumpster fire.

Time to play super mario bros 3, as was the style at the time.

Burger King does.

At mcdonalds? Well…I AM old, but when I worked there as a teenager, we just ripped open an unmarked brown paper bag, and poured them straight into a metal basket.

Then we dropped the basket in oil, pressed a button, and 3 minutes later DING FRIES ARE DONE!

…what’s the spoon for?

rams into someguy3

No.

You could have every single piece of technology on the planet using AI and it would still falter, because HUMANS DON’T WANT AI! Time and time again it’s been shown that people don’t like this shit. You’re spending money that hasn’t been made, on ram that hasn’t been produced, to be installed in AI data centers that haven’t been built, to run AI farms that have zero interest from humans, to chase profits that will never come.

I would normally say “congratulations, you fell for it again”, except nobody is tricking you here. YOU are the one tricking yourself. Every expert has stated that CEOs everywhere report no actual benefit from their AI use. Tech experts everywhere report that customers don’t want AI in their toilet. Or their toaster. Or their TV. Or their cell phone.

So who is this for?

auto closing/suspending stale communities stale could be defined as unanswered mod reports, no mod activity (no post, comment, login in x time period), no posts

No. I’ve seen several times people ask the admins if they could take over a community. And it happened. Thus reviving dead communities.

staggered new account permissions: wait 24h before commenting, wait 7 days before posting.

Why?

allow community users to flag posts or comments as NSFW.

This one I like.

Voting changes from up, down to up, down or NSFW.

That’s not how it should be done though. The same menu that you pull out that lets you report things to a mod, instead of reporting to mod, it should let you report as NSFW. If a mod approves the request, it then becomes labeled as NSFW.

Ok…but thats not an arguement for or against analog or digital. You’re just making the case for redundancy. You can achieve the same thing by making a copy of analog files, and simply storing the copies in a different place.

NOW if the permanent records burn, there’s a backup. And that’s the point of redundancy.

This implies regular Doug Bowser was known for being wet…

We could call her…Samus! And she’ll wear a bikini when she dies…

I’m also a big tech guy

Well you’ll be happy to know that we don’t body shame here.

We will however relentlessly mock you if you use Windows 11.

Look man…I hate AI too…but you can’t just use it as a scapegoat to cover for humans being humans.

Should the AI be telling him to do more and more drugs until he died? Well, no, but also…maybe don’t do dangerous drugs at all.

Like if chatgpt says to shoot yourself in the face, and you do, is it chatgpt’s fault you killed yourself? Or was it you killing yourself at fault for killing you?

This world is getting dumber and dumber.

I signed up for friendica, after 2 decades of having never used facebook.

It’s blank, and I don’t know what I’m supposed to do.

I can’t comment on what the facebook experience is, but I imagine they don’t just dump you onto a blank white page, with zero explaination.

Note that I am NOT defending or endorsing facebook. I’m just saying the decentralized services have work to do before they can fully be reccomended.

I also recently signed up for pixelfed. It took 3 days to login the first time. And I’m still not sure what the point of collections is. But I did upload 4 pictures.

Those are called “raccoons”.

Fun fact, Bandcamp was started after this one time, at band camp…someone made a mix tape called “Quickflip Tricks Mix '96”

But YOU are.

Can you say “fuck”? What’s your opinion on bleaching my asshole?

Can it work on these android retro handhelds?

Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t it leak a few weeks ago that all you had to do was download the redacted files, that the government themselves released, and then highlight the redacted parts?

I swear that was a thing.

BIG AMERICAN PARTY!!! OH NO! WHO IS DRIVING?? BEAR IS DRIVING! HOW CAN THIS BE??? CAR FULL OF MIDGETS!!!
