I got excited when I saw this post because I knew someone in the comments would have a solution!

Didn’t he cheat on his wife and get caught as well?

When I was younger I fell for two - baggy jeans and llamas.

I remember in 5th grade I tried to joke about llamas with one kid and show him the llama song (because he loved llamas) and he said I was just copying him. In hindsight fuck you Hans, you didn’t invent llamas, you were just copying others too, you tool!

Baggy pants were regrettable too…

Got one after the craze had died down and they’re surprisingly fun - just a good quality desk toy

How does that make sense? How does putting a “Download PDF” button on their site with no restrictions make this a “me” problem?

Excellent point - the fact that he is still cashing in on a (bad) book written in the 90’s is absolutely wacky

Shout out to Rich Dad Poor Dad which has never made anyone Roch in the history of its printing.

They definitely weren’t monitoring the one at a time rule… I downloaded the file and now have it forever

I was looking for resources for a custom LLM and noticed they had a ton of copyrighted books and wondered to myself how the heck that was legal

I guess this answers that

I have a four, but most are from instances I’ve moved away from.

Started on Beehaw but when they started defederating from everyone I made a programming.dev account.

Also created a personal instance, but it was too heavy for my NAS to be worth it.

Finally, an Mbin account recently because the communism stuff from the main developers seems to be pretty contentious right now and I want to explore alternatives while I’m still happy with Lemmy. If some “event” happens and I find the need to move somewhere else its good to have an alternative in the pocket

Oh fuck I’m old now

I have concerns about the success of this platform. I am convinced what makes TikTok great isn’t necessarily the algorithm (its good, no doubt) but the volume of content. There are so many users producing content that the amount of content you find enjoyable is always more than you could scroll through in a day.

A platform like this will be boring pretty fast when you scroll through the 100 new videos uploaded that day in an single hour, and you skip many of them. It’s tough to generate enough content without enough users, and most of the content will likely just be aggregated from the other short-form sites. Of course that’s not necessarily a bad thing, it’s a more privacy-friendly way to browse that content, which is a plus.

Also, not particularly a fan of more brain-rotting short form content. It’s crazy how addictive it is and I’m wanting less, not more. But if I had to choose a “shorts” platform I’d sure like a federated, free one to be the one to succeed. But it’s got a long way to go

This is one of my all-time favorite memes ever. It never fails to make me smile and then I’m thinking about it for the next twenty minutes

I used to be really into doing Google Maps and uploading reviews, images, and updating stuff. I got a real sense of community out of it for almost no effort.

But now I’m trying to cut back on Google so much, trying to use Organic Maps more often.

I was also always self-conscious about taking pictures of stuff in a restaurant and eventually couldn’t stomach it anymore.

Damn, you gave me hope but it didn’t work :( I’ll have to do some searching for a solution. Up until now I’ve just accepted it as an annoyance

I noticed this and the fact that Ctrl + Shift + L no longer autofills. That was my favorite feature but for some reason it has stopped working

I spend less than an hour a day, usually. I end up scrolling past a lot of the posts because they don’t interest me and are more long form content, but I like to catch up on the memes and cats

I actually disagree on this one. The show made such bizarre choices and had unrealistic scenarios, it took me out of the story. I actually read the book because I was watching the series and was so confused by some of the story beats that I was convinced the book would explain the reasoning behind them.

Ended up just being mad at the series for not following the book more closely. The changes to the Prophet are just wild - taking a pedophile and making him a protagonist is just a poor choice, from my perspective… Even if you write out the pedophilia why you gotta make him have an army of kids?
