joel , to asklemmy in What uses of a smartphone do you think most people miss out on?

Oh dang, that’s $32 AUD! Bit out of my price range!

joel , to piracy in Which uploaders do you rely for TV show torrents

Frugal Usenet works great for me

joel , to greentext in Anon is a test subject

They don’t have to tell you the truth. It could have been to test whether being told that it’s “men vs women” affects the readings test subjects provide

joel , to technology in Here's what's happening to ad blockers in Google Chrome (and other browsers)

Yeah same, its been almost 10 years for me. I briefly tried other options like brave, but kept coming back to Firefox

joel , to showerthoughts in Is "food" a social construct?

I agree that the pile-on wasn’t necessary, people tend to just give their kneejerk response and then move on. Having said that, you probably could have explained your case a bit better too in the original post.

joel , to showerthoughts in Is "food" a social construct?

Food is a non-toxic, organic substance that provides nutrition in the form of carbohydrates, protein, fibre, fats/oils, and/or vitamins and minerals. Sure there are some edge cases which you can argue the point in, such as a lump of rock salt maybe, but for the most part it is something which provides sustenance. Sure you could eat mud or plaster and it won’t kill you, but it won’t help keep you alive either, so its not food.

joel , to showerthoughts in The Hyperloop might be a good idea maybe a 100 years from now

I’m with you bro, although we don’t need to mine the moon or asteroids, the tunnels can be airtight enough with reinforced concrete. They’ve already made multiple sustainable concrete formulas, and I think 150 years is plenty of time to assume these will be mass adopted. If fusion has becomea thing and we have an abundance of energy then the costs of such an enormous project will also become more feasible.

joel , to memes in I go out of my way to not crap at work.

idgi, who is that?

Nobody is talking about marxists or leftists here, tankies are a breed of their own

joel , to piracy in Is Windscribe a good VPN for torrenting?

I used wind scribe for a few years for torrenting on my phone andpc and never had any trouble. Once I forgot to turn on the vpn while downloading a movie on my phone at work (using the companywifi 🤦) and got an email from IT saying they’d gotten a warning and not to do it again 🤣😬

They do have a firewall option to prevent scenarios like that

joel , to funny in I don't know what this sport is called, but it looks fun

My first impression was that they were Korean

joel , to funny in I don't know what this sport is called, but it looks fun

I had a friend like that too, he was Sri Lankan and took offense that he was somehow not included in the blanket term of Asian. I’ve since learnt it’s possible to be more specific and say South Asian for countries such as India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka etc, and south-east Asian for countries like Thailand, Korea, Indonesia, Philippines etc

joel , to linuxmemes in Just use it. Now.

Maybe you should read the manual on how to reply to a Lemmy comment
