argv_minus_one , in Can't get cancer if you don't have a throat

You also can’t scream, even when you must.

VikingHippie ,

To paraphrase the Alien tagline: at the oncologist’s office, no one wants to hear you scream.

(As opposed to most places, where people love it)

This meme gets a 3/7 (5/7 with rice).

Not sure if the person who made this poster was being pedantic, or if it was intended to make people think, and realize that it could happen to anyone.

VikingHippie ,

Or, to quote the late, great Terry Pratchett: wizard did it.

CanniBallistic_Puppy , in I've been bamboozled, and quite possibly.....hogwashed

I don’t think hogwash means what you think it means.

He doesn’t have to sit around and listen to that hoodwink! My dude clearly got hogwashed good

Nitrate55 ,

Clearly it means OP is a hog and he’s angry somebody washed him.

Player2 ,

Hogtied

mohKohn ,

weird grammar to say someone made it up?

Jay , in This is lemmy or something

My father-in-law recently said very coolly that he had also looked at the DarkNet. Only from curiosity.

Yesterday he put a smartphone in the fridge to get the SIM card out.

That in the meme could be him.

ComfortablyGlum ,

How did he think putting a smartphone in the fridge would get the sim out?

VikingHippie ,

My guess? Magic

Jay ,

After all, the fridge is a magical place!

VikingHippie ,

🎵 it’s the most wonderful place to store beer!🎵

Jay ,

He read “somewhere on the internet” that the SIM card is held in the smartphone by a rubber band. He wanted to destroy it with cold…

VikingHippie ,

As long as you don’t forget the joker!

Mr_Dr_Oink , in Priorities!

But im using sync for free.

Why are people so angry about this?

JackbyDev ,

It’s just a meme because when Sync launched it was all over everyone’s feeds. I don’t think as many folks are as angry about it as it seems but it’s definitely a good topic for meta memes.

Mr_Dr_Oink ,

Im just happy for the influx of posts commenta and votes since sync launched.

Before it was a good day if a post got 50 upvotes Now its common to see 200+ and theres a ton more comments.

Its improved the experience in my opinion.

OceanSoap ,

The people who are actually angry tend to be FOSS advocates. I think they were assuming Sync would have a FOSS type option for users, and were surprised that wasn’t the case.

The rest of us just think it’s funny.

I’m a sync user, btw

Zetta ,

I’m a FOSS advocate, and I have the $20 Sync ad free.

OceanSoap ,

That’s awesome. :)

Zalack ,
@Zalack@startrek.website avatar

Same. I write FOSS software in my free time and also paid.

theragu40 ,

Well you see, it’s important to aggressively gatekeep anything that people start to use and enjoy.

FreeLunch ,

If you are not paying for Sync you are getting ads. So you are still paying (attention, data, you are the product).

Additionally proprietary software has some long term disadvantages that are not visible at first. This is why one needs to always inform people about it as they do not understand these disadvantages.

The biggest issue is that the owners of the proprietary code can change its course whenever they like it. See for example the Reddit Apollo Dev who would have sold out the community for 10 million dollars:

See his own published audio and the discussion on HN:

If I didn’t read it twice, I would have, since too many ads disguised as memes

BudgetBandit , in I love YouTube

Got a new phone and number.

Wanted to log into YouTube.

Had to wait a month to get the verification email because google is a shitshow when it comes to security.

Ended up never using google products since then ever again.

Resistentialism , (edited )

It’s kinda weird how they track you so much, yet they can’t even get their shit together to make recovering your account easier.

They’re option if you can’t get any access codes at all? Delete your account.

So they’re basically saying “yeah we really care that no one else should be allowed access to your account. Not even you if you fuck up. But, we thank you for building an amazing portfolio of your digital profile. Now fuck off.”

If anyone has an issue where you genuinely can’t get into your account. If you have an android tv with the Google account linked, or, and I’m assuming it works as well, an android tv box, go to the built in Web browser. It’ll let you sign into your Google account where you can disable all 2fa.

I got caught out by this, and because I used my Gmail as my Samsung account, I was also locked out of my Samsung account.

And a little tip to Google. If you’re going to forcefully collect all of this:https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/6dbf2f6a-d279-4410-803d-9c776c8e5f39.jpeg

Then let us at least fucking use it to sign into our accounts.

Actually, I said “recovering” which is false. Google doesn’t let you recover.

BudgetBandit ,

I was about to say "well at least they don’t want your contacts“ and then I remembered that you sync your contacts via google.
