Modems? I didn’t think those were much in use any more?

Can you link the IMDb? ;)

Why not just GIP Gnu Image Program? Manipulation is honestly kind of a given.

Maybe people don’t say it around you. I’ve heard it, especially as a verb.

Is that a movie called Sex? Pretty sure the developers didn’t know about that either

Unfortunately GNU Image Manipulation Program, when shortened to its 4-letter acronym and common name, is also a slur against people with disabilities.

The developers didn’t name it after the slur on purpose, but they also refuse to change it for some reason :/

apt moo

I feel this in my bones.

Scorpy’s gonna scorp. XD

Cell phones were only for grown ups and maybe rich kids, but anyone could install instant messaging software on the family computer.

Everyone I knew in high school, even if I wasn’t friends with them, had AIM and even Facebook before all of them had phones, because phones cost money.

We use a form of speech from before emojis (:

El oh el

It’s because the regular laugh crying emoji got watered down so if something was really fuuny, one has to escalate.

Yeah they did in response to a different comment elsewhere in t thus thread.

Just adding to this, as an environmental educator I love “nature is metal” moments, like watching a bunny in a field, and a hawk swoops down and kills it. We are outdoors, in both of their habitats. It is part of nature. Still doesn’t mean I want to see humans hurting animals in the context of scrolling Lemmy.

Or maybe dont traumatize people and hope they’ll become vegan instead of hating vegans.

Butchering animals is a sacred skill and has a lot of baggage attached to it. Just look at Japanese society. It should be given respect.

If your argument is that banning gruesome content related to eating animals is similar to banning racial violence in news coverage because people don’t like to see it, then I’ll agree with you. It shouldn’t be banned, and we should all eat less meat. But I still don’t want to see it.

Isn’t this entrapment? I learned about it on The Wire

Pretty convenient.

This is how copyleft code gets laundered into closed source programs.

All part of the plan.
