It’s a pale imitation of Stage 9.

Half Life 2: Episode 2 - Part Two

I don’t get it.

Why the fuck is Tron on this list? Tron Legacy is a great sequel.

Free as in markets, not free as in people.

New 3DS Plus Teams 2024 ME+ Pro U

…& Knuckles?

Thanks, I really needed this.

Don’t get me started. Monthly scorecards that are mandated to be distributed via Teams, but you can’t embed files in that sheet, otherwise Teams shits the bed.

Also, who would ever want to adjust volume levels for individual speakers? Every huddle is fucking torture.

Oh, thought you meant those other crazy South Africans.

No, you simply parroted someone else who did say that. Don’t fucking try to “but ackshually..” out of being called out.

What the fuck is stovetop dressing?

I am inclined to agree - trying to weigh things up:

Pros

• Bragging rights to be able to say that we got Threads to defederate from us.
• May hurt Threads' popularity in the short term.
• A warm fuzzy feeling from the above two points.
• Umm... that's it?

Cons

• Potentially undermines the impact the Anti-Meta Pact by not immediately defederating with them, actions are usually stronger in unison.
• Related to the above, any instance federated with them, even if they then become hostile, adds to marketing numbers to allow Threads to legitimise themselves as being connected to X other communities.
• The "Court of Public Opinion" probably won't be too sympathetic to us if we spam mommy Meta's new social network with goatse. I suppose that shouldn't matter, but if we make ourselves too unpopular it may be a pain in the ass if more mainstream instances like lemmy.world defed from us due to making ourselves pariahs.
• Potentially brings the Eye of Sauron upon us.

Weight these how you will, and please let me know if there's others to add to the list. To me the cons outweigh the pros, though I am willing to have my mind changed.-
