Well… Ryujinx didn’t do any of that (as far as I’m aware) and they still got lynched.

Awesome! I really like Yuzu.

Bluesky has its own federation protocol.

Not really.

That… Looks incredibly dystopian.

This is the correct attitude.

Teenager. I’m an artist. I was drawing some characters. Had to find some references.

No it’s not! Spiders aren’t bugs!

The idiot box, now there’s a term that’s a few generations old. TVs aren’t really boxes anymore, so… The idiot panel?

Really? You wouldn’t blame the millions of people that explicitly voted for a convicted, fascist criminal?

If Americans had any sense the race would’ve been between Stein and Harris, not between Harris and someone who shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near a presidency.

I’m blaming voters. 100 million people can be all dumb, and the results of this election is the definitive proof of that.

If people in America were actually smart, actually cared, and actually knew more than the the colour of their front lawn, they’d have voted Green.

When a CEO says this they’re likely looking forward to buying a bigger wallet.

I’m seeing a lot of “democracy is going to die” posts… But… I hate to break it to you:

America is not a democracy. And if somehow it is a democracy, then it’s an incredibly bad one. It’s the least democratic democracy in the Western world.

The two party system, the first past the post voting system, the indirect method of counting votes, lobbying, gerrymandering, the electoral collage. Systems to try and manipulate what a vote means. Systems that try to remove as much democracy from democracy as possible, while still being able to keep up some mock appearance.

Your whole country is fucked and backwards from the very beginning, and that wouldn’t be so bad. But if America does something we all have to suffer for it!

Very accurate meme. This is me seeing that the votes between the two candidates are somehow close. This is me seeing how one of the two is even allowed to run at all.

Do you have family in Iran? Cousins? Uncles? Anything?

I’m not sure if this counts, but dysenteri from drinking contaminated water.

2008 rendered me and my family homeless for 6 or so years. I was a teenager back then.

We were on vacation in Morocco. We were never a rich family, this vacation was something we planned several years in advance. But as we were in Morocco the whole economy collapsed and we were left stranded.

We made it into Spain by selling a bunch of our stuff. Then we were left stranded in Spain. Still realing from the shock of having lost everything, we were living in some plastic tents next to a river. We weren’t allowed to drink the much cleaner water used by the local irrigation, so we took river water and boiled it.

Boiling it apparently wasn’t enough. For a whole week I had snot-like slime with blood clots coming out of both ends. Nothing I ate stayed in or could be digested. Some locals who decided to help us said I looked like a skeleton, like someone from a concentration camp. I felt weaker and weaker, more tired, slept longer until I was basically asleep the entire day. I was told I was dying.

What saved me may have been activated charcoal. My mom had a whole pot of it and was feeding it to me with yogurt.

The Star Wars universe must be stuck in an Octarine field, as that makes light move very slowly.

My jazz playlist on Spotify. I’ve accumulated 40 hours of jazz and funk on that playlist now.

Specifically, during work yesterday (which is Monday at the time of writing) I remember listening to Nubiyan Twist, Web Web, Mop Mop, Jaga Jazzits, Roy Hargrove/The RH Factor, Snarky Puppy, Robert Glasper, Nina Simone, The Dave Brubeck Quartet, Dhafer Youssef, and Wallace Roney.

I don’t actually understand the purpose of karma on Reddit, beyond some sort of metric to feel good about yourself. It’s literally just a number and nothing else.

I’ve seen some people try to devalue what someone said because of “low karma”, so I’d say it’s a good thing Lemmy doesn’t have a karma system.
