Or maybe it’s just the ‘we’ that’s going to be out of the equation, which is fine too I guess. Our particular form of life just isn’t that important in the grand scheme of things anyway.

They were all right though, if by ‘the world’ you mean ‘the world as we know it’.

Everything’s comin’ up Milhouse!

On the face of it this sounds perfectly legit. If you take drugs responsibly you’ll be happy for a while.

I took a shit on the floor of every room. Joke’s on you!

Personally I think growth is a tainted metric. For a capitalist enterprise focused on shareholder value it might be worth something (although you could argue that’s what turned the corporate Internet to shit in the first place). Steady ingress and egress of users is fine IMO. We don’t need growth, we just need stability.

Super relaxed, that comes with the territory of not giving a fuck. Also I make good money.

This guy is me. Fuck your job. Take all you can, give nothing back.

Forgiving yourself is difficult. You have grown enough to realize what you did was dumb. Whenever your brain decides to throw a random cringe memory in your face, consciously tell yourself you’re better now and you forgive yourself for your mistakes. It helped me.

Funny, I’ve always thought of them as terms of honour. At least that’s why I called my father old man. He called his captain that back when he was a sailor. (second edit: fun fact, his last captain was my grandpa on mom’s side. Guess he liked the captain’s daughter.)

edit: I guess it’s a way to acknowledge seniority.

The economy.

Bro don’t

Unrelated to the question but can we please drop the Reddit habit of adding “of Lemmy” to the question? You’re asking Lemmy, no need to add it to every question.

No ill will to OP!

I’m glad you’re leaving that cesspool behind. That said, just not doing the thing is also an option. I’ve replaced Reddit one to one with Lemmy but I’d just as soon forego the whole thing. I’ve never seen the allure of Twitter and I have a Mastodon account but I don’t see it there either.

I think I’m gonna delete that as well and just live without it.

I set up double puppeting for Discord on my Matrix server. Works great for text communication so I don’t have to have the client installed on mobile devices. I do still use the native client for voice and video streaming though.

Here’s to hoping connected cars won’t be obligated through legislation.

Obviously. OBVIOUSLY.

What the ever living capital F Fuck Redmond? They’re blatantly stealing your files, literally! I realize I’m being hyperbolic but Jesus Henry Christ does it get more dystopian than this?

You have a perfectly fine setup with your personal files stored somewhere, happily trucking along and then Microsoft decides to upload YOUR SHIT to THEIR SHIT without even fucking asking? And I’ll bet my left nut that they’ll go ‘oops, your OneDrive is full, better hand over your credit card!’ once it’s done!

Good luck getting in.

The website is a masterclass in minimalist, utilitarian design. I just use that.
