So you're saying that they need to break up and never speak to each other ever again and that she needs to get a restraining order?? That a quite extreme

That's not toast? It's bread.

They suffer any way. A few thousand people being killed in air strikes is normal there, regardless of what Hamas does.

Have you tried Soya milk? That's my favourite, it is high fat and high protein so it's quite creamy. If you want to substitute dairy with it, it works the best and is also very cheap

I didn't even know co-op power companies were common, it seems like an odd (but good) service to be provided by a co-op. I wonder if there's any in the UK

Jesus Christ what a fucking freak. A rape kink doesn't mean you want to be raped, freak. Yes women are care about superficial bullshit, and you think men don't?

You freak. Loser. Weirdo. Incel.

It's mostly because people consume most content via apps and the web on smart phones now that have screens that are anywhere from 4.5" - 6.5" in size, and sadly more complex logos just don't look that good when they're squished into an area that's a fraction of the total screen size. Where as in the past people might see a Pringles ad or anything related to Pringles on the TV, in a news paper, on a billboard etc which have way more space so the details are visible.

It is pretty unfortunate though, it's the same reason the Firefox logo (and like everything else lol) was made minimalistic. I miss the old Firefox logo, I didn't use Firefox in 2005-2009 but that one is definitely my favourite, the 2009-2013 one is nice too though which is when I first started using FF I think. Compared to today's logo even the 2013-2017 one is great though

I feel like about 4% of all the comments on Lemmy are just people telling each other they use an adblocker

It is weird how he's just completely running it into the ground... I don't really buy that though because he never actuslly wanted the company and only bought it because a court forced him to. Also I honestly don't think he'd want to wash 44 big ones down the drain just to own the libs.

All I can think of is that he's just... maybe kind of an idiot and has just gotten lucky so far lol? It's the only thing that fits as far as I can see.

Reminds me of the "Everyone on reddit is a fucking moron" style posts and comments on reddit that would have like 10k up votes lol. I think the reason for it is everyone thinks they're the exception

Also Lemmy is becoming a larger platform and Twitter- or "X"- is becoming a smaller platform. Sure total users might be down since right after the Exodus but that is obviously normal, a new baseline will be established that's still significantly above the pre Exodus baseline. Then reddit inc will do something else stupid and people on the site will be talking about Lemmy again.

I think there's positives and negatives to having a small platform, and there's positives and negatives to having a larger platform. With a smaller platform, the quality of the comments in general is much higher with less low effort jokes which usually you've already read 500 times. With larger platforms, the smaller communities are much more active because there's a larger pool to draw those people with niche interests from.

I don't think very many people use those definitions for first/ second/ third world anymore. The colloquial definitions of "first world = rich second world = not so rich but not so poor and third world = poor" are more useful anyway due to as you say the Soviet Union not existing anymore so nobody can align with it.
