It became a federal holiday in 2021

Funny post, but I hate the Tumblr-esque message at the bottom

Companies that rely a lot on their phone apps, but exclude the “cancel/remove account” feature in the app are the worst. This should be illegal or regulated.

No, that is not what I was talking about. In the current environment it is completely possible for some people to only have interactions with bots online, without even knowing. This may get worse and worse in the future. THAT is what “dead” internet implies, lifeless online interactions essentially.

You’re taking the word “dying” too literally

I have no idea how my dog learned this, but whenever anyone says “Window”, he rushes to the closest window and stares outside and barks.

I don’t know if I could live with myself knowing how many lives I ruined, maybe that’s why the shit floats to the top. Sane people are not as accomplished because they “don’t make the tough decisions”.

I don’t get what happens in the backend, but you can’t convince me that these companies should be multi-billion dollar companies.

Sorry, I think I worded it poorly. I was saying that Netflix and Spotify were good, but Netflix got a bit neutered after other companies came in. Spotify is still amazing though.

Just 10mins ago I was thinking how great the digital age started. I liked that when I bought something I can store it anywhere, play/listen (don’t remember if digital movies was a thing) it without any internet connection etc. Then we got Netflix and eventually Spotify and we got even more options, do you want to pay a reasonable price a month and watch/play essentially anything or do you want to keep your stuff forever and pay more? But then other companies wanted that piece of pie and started their own services, neutered existing services, raise prices often, got more aggressive with drm and other limitations. My point is, when things start and they seem good in this tech world of ours, just think a bit outside of the box about how bad it can get, because believe me, you are likely correct with that. When this digital age started, people were fearful too, and most of their fears came true.

I was downvoted to hell in a gaming sub, I made a reply to my comment and provided examples and got upvoted for that. I got banned by the mod for negativity or something even though my post wasn’t directed at anyone, it was just downvoted because I said something without proof initially.

I was “YTA” because I let my friend’s dog into my room while he was whining outside my door at like 2am when my friend was away.
Context: I was letting my friend live with me rent-free for some months with me because he was in-between moving and at one point he asked me to not let his dog into the bedrooms because he ate cheeseburger from my other friend’s room one time. Everyone in the comments was essentially “his dog, his rules”. I deleted my Reddit account after that because I just could not reason with anyone.

This comment is so refreshing to see. I thought I was going crazy for enjoying season 2 and thinking that the animation wasn’t bad.

I have a Hisense and a LG and I never connected them to WiFi. I have not had any issues

Someone hasn’t played Death Stranding

This is correct. We should hate spez for being a skeevy ashole, but let’s not make up random accusations.

This may seem baseless, but I have seen this from years of experience in online forums. You don’t have to take it seriously, but maybe you can relate. We have seen time and time again that if there is no moderation then the shit floats to the top. The reason being that when people can’t post something creative or fun, but they still want the attention, they will post negative. It’s the loud minority, but it’s a very dedicated loud minority. Let’s say we have 5 people and 4 of them are very creative time and funny, but 1 of them complains all the time. If they make posts to the same community then there is a very good chance that the one negative person will make a lot more posts than the 4 creative types.

I agree with you except the headphone jack part. My Bluetooth headset is great, but losing the convenience of using a non-battery device and not worrying about the battery life really is a great loss. I’m so glad my steam deck and switch have a headphone jack.

I was logged out the other day without realizing and for the first time I saw Mr. Beast and other similar content being recommended

Damn, this is the only streaming service I pay for and I use it at my parents and my house
