From what I understand, “whispers” were what private messages were called on twitch. And it’s “then existing,” I don’t use twitch, but I guess it doesn’t exist anymore, that’s what they mean. Pretty poor wording though, don’t blame you for not knowing what the hell they mean.

My cousin only gets the ugliest, most fucked up looking dogs, and I’ll never understand it

Whatever

I hear that India is fun for parties and weddings, but also that it’s extremely dirty and a dangerous place to visit. I’m a man, but I especially wouldn’t want to be a white woman visiting, I’ve seen videos of how they’ll stare with no regard for how she feels - Indian men have a very poor reputation when it comes to how they act towards European/US women.

Okay?

A normal person lmao

Which is fine with me tbh because fuck sales. I’d never survive independently, because I’d tell the customer the truth. And the truth doesn’t sell. I don’t have the energy to lie about how everything is better than it actually is.

I just hope we get cross play before everyone gets tired of the game.

SLAMS

Probably not lol. Seems to me more along the lines of those folks copy/pasting the whole “I hereby claim that nothing on my Facebook can be used without my permission” on Facebook.

Oh is that very recent? I think I’ve been using the instance block feature that my app has. Which blocks me from seeing any of their posts, but I still see them show up in comment threads. I’ll look into this later, would love to be rid of them entirely

Lol yeah, I have to block individual hexbear users whenever I find a thread where the instance hasn’t defederated from them yet. I’d love to be able to block all hexbear and lemmy.ml users

How about a discount for crossing their fingers and loading us up on a Boeing?

Great band though, you’ve got good taste

Beats Skype for Business too, which was Microsoft’s previous offering. And it was BAD.

Oh gee I wonder what the fucking answer might be

Goddamn dude, you skipped millennial and jumped straight to that boomer mentality

Go on mastodon and click on public, it’s 80% spam and ads

90% of the time when I see someone swerving in traffic because they’re blatantly staring at their phone, it’s somebody 50+ years old

Part of it is that the people here have an air of superiority for being in the secret techie club lmfao. It’s as annoying and tribalistic as the stupid “what time does the narwhal bacon?” bullshit from early reddit. I also think the whole concept just attracts shut-in tech types who know a lot about privacy and Linux, but aren’t very good at the whole social thing.
