The new description is also good

mercano , to mildlyinfuriating in Reddit: Don't like us anymore? Pay us $50/year!
@mercano@lemmy.world avatar

I canceled by Premium subscription when they canceled my third party apps.

I didn’t think anyone actually paid for that shit, like I thought it was a meme for the longest time.

Mane25 ,

Believe it or not there was once a lot of good will towards Reddit.

darkmugglet ,

That’s the amazing thing. In about a month Reddit went from a well liked company to hated. I would love see the cross section of premium users used third party clients. Reddit just torched all good will for nothing.

drlecompte ,

I was a premium subscriber, simply because I used Reddit a lot, I could financially bear it, and I generally liked how the place was run so I wanted to support them. Now I feel betrayed and my trust is violated, like when your friend borrows money off you and then never pays it back and just laughs in your face for being so naive. So I went from ‘I love Reddit’ to ‘fuck Reddit’ in about a month. Impressive achievement.

I’m not paying $50/y AND my personal data you fucking scumbags

What’s the recourse? Do we start feeding our dogs homemade dog food instead?

MiddleWeigh ,
@MiddleWeigh@lemmy.world avatar

Yea pretty much. As much as I mull over solutions it always comes back to returning to our roots, which happens to be impossible at this point with the current population crisis. I’d imagine redistributing the wealth to alleviate these things would be extremely hard, would probly take a war to get going, or start multiple little wars in the process. It’s really pretty bad. Worse than people like to think. I dont know where we go from here. That’s part of the problem and why we maintain the status quo.

For now you can probly start approximating what is in that food with your scraps, like back in the day. I don’t really know and I hate not knowing shit lol. (Why I’m here)

instamat ,

We have to go full Star Trek and remove profit and personal gain as the motive for doing everything. In the meantime I guess it’s time to start reading up on what a dog’s diet should be.

@MiddleWeigh@lemmy.world avatar

Haha i agree, but getting there is the hard part. Theres so much infrastructure built up around a messed up system that all we can do is slowly change and crawl towards our ultimate goals.

I’d be curious to see someones experience on this, and get the lowdown on if it’s cheaper and more efficient, and if so, how much money they saved etc.

Donjuanme ,

The Oroville had a really good take on this. It took me starting it 3 different times before it hooked me, but damn the third season (all the seasons really, but this season were 90 minutes episodes) kicked.

Mistymtn421 , (edited )

That would be nice, although remember what started it all in 2063 2053 :/

instamat ,

First contact?

Mistymtn421 ,

Oops wrong date! Meant 2053!

<After the war ended in 2053, humanity slowly began to rebuild civilization and the planet, eliminating sickness, hunger, poverty, and despair within two generations. Earth was mostly restored by the 22nd century as the United Earth Government formed, however there were still some lingering effects from the post atomic horror. Star Trek: Enterprise

This is where that paragraph came from (memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Earth) Cool place if you’re into Star Trek

instamat ,

For a second there I thought you were vehemently anti Vulcan!

If I’m into Star Trek… lol

“our costs have gone up amidst am inflationary environment and we have had no choice but to increase prices. Oh hey don’t look at our financial statements, the fact that we made record profits is irrelevant.”

@gkd@lemmy.ml avatar

This is the way. Reddit cannot expect people to dedicate the same amount of time in volunteer work if they don’t enjoy the platform.

zikk_transport2 , to youshouldknow in YSK how to find the proper air pressure for your tires

I always read about what’s printed on tires. 🤷

Otome-chan , to newcommunities in Skeptic - A community for critical takes on pseudoscience, quackery, and bald-faced BS.
@Otome-chan@kbin.social avatar

quacks welcome to chat too? or no?

WowSuchInternetz ,

You can’t have critical takes on quackery without quackery, so I think quacks should be welcomed as long as they refrain from the things we don’t like list. Just as would be the case for the critical thinkers. I’m not saying this is the case, but it is how I would like it.

Jarmer , to futurama in Happy Father's Day
@Jarmer@kbin.social avatar

Thanks! I’m spending my first Father’s Day with my brother who’s also a first time father! We are conspiring on ways our little ones (first cousins) can become fast friends. It’s also fun sharing stories since we are at almost the same stages.

unphazed , to youshouldknow in YSK how to find the proper air pressure for your tires

I learned recently there is usually a sticker under the hood with the weight of refrigerant and oil to be put into the ac as well (really helped me in properly using a manifold gauge and pump on my truck)

There’s also ich_iel on feddit.de (me_irl German version) and danke ich hatte das on feddit.de (thanks I hate it ) and geschichtsmaimais (historymemes German version) on Lemmy.world

Meme = Maimai ?

GaryL , to maliciouscompliance in "Assume the role of a Chinese immigrant"? 没问题.

The handwriting and grammar was perfect. I assume it was an English homework for the student in Hong Kong or Taiwan? (The character was in traditional style which is mainly used by Hong Konger and Taiwanese.)

Melon ,

I think it’s more likely to be history homework for a North American school completed by an immigrant from HK/Taiwan.

pneumapunk ,

Or he’s just getting really into the persona of an 1870s immigrant, who would have been using traditional characters anyway! Such attention to detail :D
