ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.netto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Young US men are joining Russian churches promising 'absurd levels of manliness'English9·5 hours agoAnd also being so confident, you don’t need another man to tell you you’re a big strong masculine man.
Unpopular opinion:
There’s this edgy incel dude I know, way into anime and 4chan bullshit. I invite him to parties 2-3 times a year because maybe I think there’s hope for him to reintegrate into society.
In the past few months, I’ve been telling him to use AI to run through his thoughts and check them before coming to me. And honestly, his maturity/personality is getting more tolerable.
Or maybe this is delusional on my part. What I do know is he hasn’t shouted “Hitler did nothing wrong” as a joke anymore.

If you look back into history, Automated elevators was a major panic until people got comfortable with the idea.

ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.netto Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•This led to a very confusing discussion in the replies about the varying fares and systems of public transit in the Oakland-San Francisco areaEnglish3·5 hours agoThis is the norm where I live too, AND my city has a relatively good public transportation system.
Glorify unhealthy relationships
So many to call out, but to keep it lighthearted, Gintama plays abuse for laughs.
It’s a great show btw.
I worked at a major tech company in 2018 who didn’t take security seriously because that was literally their philosophy, just refusing to do anything until it was an absolute perfect security solution, and everything else is wasted resources.
I left since then and I continue to see them on the news for data leaks.
Small brain people man.
ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.netto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•This section of Jim Carrey's Wikipedia Article3·5 hours agoNo kidding.
I get excited every time he’s on screen.
I’m a 40 yo man.
I met a guy who would say “pan forward” and “pan it in an angle”.
You folks still say bot? I my company, we say AI.
As an American who does web development, “You guys have multiple languages on your websites?”
I did that with a game I installed and couldn’t figure out how to fix it. So I just uninstalled the game and tried again…
It “woke” something up inside of them
I just checked out Airbnb recently and they have a banner that states the price tag is now the ENTIRE PRICE. No more $300 sticker price followed by $200 of fees during checkout.
It’s a step in the right direction.
Unfortunately, hosts are still bundling bullshit like post checkout clean the floor, wash the roof, and milk the dog else be fined.

This is going to sound stupid, but during college, I took a lot of different types of math and history classes.
As humans, we invented years, and ages. Then we made milestones for what they represented. We said, there are 7 days in the week. We said, there are 52 weeks in a year. Some other BS happen and then culturally we said things like by age 30, you should be married. By age 40, you should have a family.
But imagine if we actually made a week 10 days? Or there’s 30 weeks in a year? Suddenly, this is all BS numbers. Back to culturally, why is 30 a specific number? Or 40? Or any of these numbers?
For me, 40 is just a made-up number. It means nothing. The expectations around the number, bullshit. My friend is 55, and we went bar hopping. I hung out with a 70 and played Frisbee. I pitched go-karts and dressing up like Mario Kart to my 60yo neighbors.
Just made up numbers.
Of course, don’t get weird and and try to shoehorn underage relationships. That’s not the intent here.
Pig buttholes? Gonna call bullshit.
