Of course not because it’s a load of hogwash. Go play telephone with a class of 6th graders for 5 minutes and then tell me these stories are accurate. Also the events in most of them are clearly impossible situations.

Why not serve fried chicken on Juneteenth? How is it different from serving corned beef on St. Patrick’s day? (old.lemmy.world)

Disclaimer: I am not trolling, I am an autistic person who doesn’t understand so many social nuances. Also I am from New Hampshire (97% white), so I just don’t have any close African-American friends that I am willing to risk asking such a loaded question.

arefx ,

Yes absolutely. I went to high school in the north from 02-06 and took an elective class that was African American history for the first half of the school year and Vietnam War history the second half. My teacher for both was a black woman and the first day of class she asked the class what some stereotypes they have heard of black people were, and of course people mentioned all of them. Whe fried chicken was mentioned she said, and I quote, “No we actually don’t like fried chicken, WE LOVE IT!”. So yeah I mean in the north there’s a lot less hate behind it and it’s more seen as just a “funny observation”. And not to take away from any true hate or racism but the idea of liking fried chicken being a bad thing is so ridiculous to me because fried chicke is fucking amazing.

arefx ,

Yeah I don’t think anyone I’m friends with or close to that is white views it as a negative stereotype at all up here in NY. However if you drive out to small towns in NY there still uneducated racists flying confederate flags on their front porch, unfortunately.

I love this I hope my Goober loves long and healthy like this, all our cats really. Let’s go Murphy!!! I can only imagine the special bond you must have after over two decades. Very special.

arefx ,

A fine French woman she is.

I’m sure plenty of them have nice little deals with the NSA lol

It’s maddening. Somehow valve figured out how to get it to work in steam os in gaming mode but it’s still MIA in the desktop

Is Craigslist Dying?

I went to Craigslist in my local area for the first time in awhile. I used to like “best of” Craigslist because some of them were great, there still are some, but its just not the same. A community I used to visit had about half the number of posts as I remember, and of jobs and things for sale, I would say roughly half the...

arefx ,

In my experience yes. The Facebook marketplace killed it. Which sucks because I refuse to use facebook.

arefx ,

I really wish the anticheat co.panies would get their stuff working on Linux. I know anticheats aren’t 100% effective but they are necessary, if you think it’s bad with them imagine without.

Boeing Will Launch Starliner With Helium Leak (www.extremetech.com)

Boeing and NASA are moving ahead with the upcoming Starliner demonstration launch despite an active helium leak. The launch is now on the books for Saturday, June 1, at 12:25 p.m. EDT. If all goes as planned, Starliner will rendezvous with the International Space Station the following day and return to Earth on June 10. If not,...

arefx ,

Reality sets in and you realize how crazy and insane of a job it actually is. Incredible no doubt for the many who do so safetly but yeah… not exactly safe.

arefx ,

Fuck no

arefx ,

I’d rather save for pc upgrades or a nee standing desk or something like that.

arefx ,

They absolutely are lol 😆 I’d rather have his old pc than a console too though

arefx ,

You can say pedophile… that “pdf file” stuff is so corny and childish. Hey guys lets talk about a serious topic by calling it things like “pdf files” and “Graping”. Jfc

arefx ,

I unironically did this to taper off nicotine and have been smoke/vape/nicotine free for 6 years

arefx ,

It’s not a might at this point.

Oh sweet summer child…

Cyberpunk had a good story and characters, and basis for a game it just was rushed lut the door unfinished. They actually care about making No Man’s Sky better and delivering on their initial promise, then surpassing it when they initially failed and let everyone down. Bethesda doesn’t care. They just want money. They aren’t going to even consider making starfield a good game unless They add an atom shop first and stuff to spend the money on

arefx ,

I was very let down with them on release. The animations are worse though.

arefx ,

Bethesda, EA, Unisoft, Activision Blizzard. All companies I no longer spend my money on.

Americans are choking on surging fast-food prices. "I can't justify the expense," one customer says (www.cbsnews.com)

Kevin Roberts remembers when he could get a bacon cheeseburger, fries and a drink from Five Guys for $10. But that was years ago. When the Virginia high school teacher recently visited the fast-food chain, the food alone without a beverage cost double that amount....

arefx ,

All the fasst food places here pay like 15$ minimum, mcdonalds. Bk, Wendy’s, all the big names.

It’s still shit money but it’s not THAT low.

arefx ,

I make 120k a year installing carpets lol. I absolutely bust my ass but I make more than many people I know who went to college. My dad also installed carpets for 48 years before retiring at 71. I plan to retire sooner though lol but will work for many years to come and pump.up that IRA

arefx ,

Does your dad work for himself or someone else? If he works for himself I don’t know how he’s only making 35k lol. I live in Western New York though (no where near NYC)

arefx ,

We don’t use kickers much any more we use power stretchers so the wear on the knees is not that bad. Our backs hands and shoulders hurt more than our knees.

arefx ,

I will continue to not play EA games. Business as usual.

arefx ,

The games aren’t even that good that it’s worth it tho. They are like 7/10s at best and at worst… yikes.

arefx ,

The USA has been going backwards for some time now. I’m not even some Chinese simp or very political (I made an account on .ml before I even knew what I was doing) but it’s impressive how far they have advanced over the last 20-30 years and how the USA has just stagnated or regressed.

arefx ,

Great post tbh its refreshing to see an intelligent thought out response on social media for a change lol

arefx ,

😆 🤣 😂

Based on a true story (lemmy.world)

My OS is on a 512gb M.2 drive, but the main storage on my laptop was a 1TB HDD, it started making noise about 2 weeks ago so I backed everything up onto a 1TB SanDisk USB SSD. This afternoon it got very clicky when I booted it up after work and icons for a few games I had stored on it, like KSP and YUZU, disappeared from the...

arefx ,

Just don’t store anything important and problem solved. Lol ;)

arefx ,

I know you’re joking but your average IRL United States police officer is painfully painfully stupid or narrow minded.

arefx ,

I’m at least an average intelligence guy, not a genius, but I’m not some compelete idiot. Big game companies treat me like an absolute dumb ass so I don’t bother with their trash (the games are almost always mediocre anyway full of MTX). Just sell me a full working product at a fair price and then charge me for an expansion down the road if you want. Don’t nickel and dime me or promise me.shit I know you can’t deliver. Just talk to me like a human lol

arefx ,

I gotta check this out when I get some time.

arefx ,

Thats silly everyone knows its punk rock to go to punk shows, and hate the establishment.

arefx ,

You can be old and white, and both and be punk rock. Biden and Trump aren’t punk because they just aren’t lol. Not because they are old or white…

arefx ,

Both shitty mainstream rock? Both those bands are cringe for different reasons.

arefx ,

Negative, they are just a mass marketed pop rock product with some light metal riffing added in.

arefx ,

Never lol gotta jeep you chuds outta the real punk scene

arefx ,

I’m ready for a new yo-yo craze 1996-8 was the last great resurgence

arefx ,

Agreed, it’s so cringe

Musk Admits He Doesn't Fact-Check Himself and Has Two Burner Accounts on Twitter (www.rollingstone.com)

Elon Musk‘s erratic posting on X, formerly Twitter, has come back to haunt him once again as a 22-year-old Jewish man pursues a defamation case over tweets in which the tech mogul baselessly suggested the recent college graduate was an undercover federal agent posing as a neo-Nazi during a street fight between far-right...

arefx ,

So busy working all day yet he runs two burner Twitter accounts.

This asshole doesn’t do shit but play Diablo 4 (which sucks ass), tweet, and boss around the people who actually make his companies successful.

arefx ,

Because they want to grow as an individual lol.

arefx ,

Also the people who make decisions at Bethesda should find a new career to ruin.

arefx ,

Steelseries mice!!

arefx ,

I am a native english speaker and the headline absolutely makes sense and is clearly worded, some people just dont think about what they are reading.

arefx ,

But it clearly does not say that if you take your time to think about the words you are reading so clearly you glossed over it without any real reading comprehension going on…
