But in the US, colloquially every 4 year school is a college. People say “I’m going to college.” People don’t say “I’m going to university.”

For real. I watched him convince a hunter not to kill him just by saying “duck season” and “rabbit season” in rapid succession.

Bourbon.

The only things I even recognize from those two are fdroid and lynx.

Old school group chat.

Please tell me there aren’t two more tiers to the right of paranoid. The last tier would just be “homemade pencils only.”

That’s the Cheesecake Factory.

With helium or no?

Was it capitalism or was it refrigeration?

Lol this is a hilarious misspelling of “sweetie.”

I just saw the movie. There is nothing gay about it, unless a shirtless Ryan Gosling is too much for the commenter to repress.

No, I’m not saying Lemmy users checking in represent any material change to Reddit numbers. I’m saying Place gets Reddit a short term boost to demonstrate the site still has pull. And that is what Reddit cares about far more than good content - eyeballs to sell ads to, and comments to sell to LLM companies.

If I saw that without already knowing about Lemmy, I’d assume it was a Lemon Party thing.

Place gives Reddit exactly what it needs most - user engagement. By going, you’re feeding Reddit stats they can show prospective investors and advertisers on unique users, time on site, and clicks even after the protests.

Reddit was very crafty in relaunching Place right now. They can show a material post-API uptick exactly as Spez promised.

Tell me we’re Gen X without telling me we’re Gen X.

Despite sixteen years as an active user, Reddit is dead to me. Even the subreddits I miss because there aren’t as active related communities here (yet) aren’t worth using that fucking app.

Small ones with 100% uptime and a handful of users who don’t interact with each other.

“Next one’s coming faster.”

Duck Duck Go search results are a little lacking, though, like it’s completely missing some possibilities. Looking up tech stuff for a Linux issue I’m having, Duck will miss a site that Google finds - and even if I enter the exact text of the site, it’s completely absent from Duck.

I reread the whole thing and I’m still not sure how heroin plays into any of it.
