So you’re saying you’re unemployed?

I usually change the parameters to things like utm_source=yourmom, just for kicks.
They can conjure hurricanes with cloud seeding and steer them with Doppler Radar, but they’re too stupid to do it the day before the election. Go figure.
They’re doing a great job of it, I will say.
gizmonicus@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Linux Reaches 5% Desktop Market Share In USAEnglish37·2 months ago100% this. I’ve been on Linux for 27 years now (ffs I’m getting old), and until proton, I just wrote off gaming as a hit or miss experience, usually not worth the trouble. Now I’ll buy Windows only games without even checking compatibility in most cases. Unless it’s a full price AAA game, I’ll risk the off chance that it doesn’t work.
The costume has a hood though.
Language evolves, the meaning of words change. It’s a natural part of the evolution of language over time. You say hang up the phone or dial a phone number, don’t you? But you don’t literally hang up a phone when you’re done with it or turn a literal dial anymore. But they used to work that way, so we still use that language even though the original meaning is lost.
I would argue that although this phrase originated from dismissing the opinions of actual boomers, it’s become a convenient shorthand way of calling someone out of touch with current social trends without having to adapt new phrases every time a new generation takes the place of the boomers as being out of touch.

If we let BYD into the U.S. market, it could end up destroying american manufacturersEnglish791·3 months agoGood. Fuckem. They make shitty, oversized trucks that are a danger to pedestrians and people who drive reasonably sized cars anyway.

Or it could be worthless because, as this clown already knows, no one can predict the next 30 fucking years like some clairvoyant.
OK, Biff, if you’re so smart, what’s the play right now? Why aren’t you investigating $100 a month in a small online bookstore that will one day be a tech supergiant?

Always look both ways, no matter how long the light has been green. I need to see you’re paying attention though, that’s the thing. So many people in the front of the line are sitting on their phone so sleeping or whatever the fuck. It’s pretty obvious when someone is just checking the intersection before moving vs. not even looking at the damn road.
This goes for more than just driving too. If you’re next in line at the café and you can’t be fucked to think about anyone behind you while you finish sending a text or whatever while the server is waiting to take your order, you’re an asshole. Make your order, pay, then do what you want to do.

No thanks. I’d rather drown.

I almost immediately lost mine. It’s possible to make them attached, AND not suck.

Red pill. You can make money, but you can’t make time.
I for one am really glad none of the stupid shit I said as a kid is still around. I was a complete dumbass, to the bone. If I saw a post from past me, I would be so triggered.
