Perhaps I live in a bubble of pessimism, but — isn't the looming collapse of civilization well-known, and essentially a certainty?

[-] DougHolland@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

Well, nobody certainly didn't see that coming.

It was probably never true, but for many years I foolishly thought that 'bankruptcy' meant 'going out of business.' That's what it means if a mom-and-pop restaurant or shop declares bankruptcy. When companies get ginormous, though, they never go away. Rite Aid will 'reorganize' itself with fresh investors, and it'll still be a shitty drug store long after everyone reading this is dead.

And maybe some time before he dies, let Zayn Al-Abidin Muhammad Husayn out of this American dungeon.

Whoa. That totally Keanues me. I had thought of the lack of infinite scrolling as a bug, a feature I'd hoped was in development, but this srsly rejiggers my ears and everything in between.

I already spend too much time online, so ... I'm with @dessalines@lemmy.ml — no infinite scrolling, please.

There's a Firefox add-on that does this, but only for Reddit, of course. Click the line and you're on to the next top-level comment.

One of the few things I miss about Reddit (and of course, it's not even Reddit).

I've been here a month after 15 years at the other place, and it's an improvement.

Sorry you got clusterbombed, though. You asked a fair question, something I wondered too when I first got here.

Bad bot. OP is a newbie asking an honest question, and for that they get booted by a bot?

It would make sense to notify a human mod when a post is drowning in downvotes like this one, but it's a mistake to trust the bot to hand out suspensions.
