I’m amazed at all the CCP dick sucking here. It’s like I stumbled into r/Sino

I haven’t set foot in a Walmart since Dec 2014 and I don’t miss it at all. My ex used to order groceries from there but now I get Kroger delivery. Weirdly, we don’t even have a Kroger within 150miles but they’re cheaper and faster.

I’d never order from CVS online anyway. They’re too expensive. The only reason to go there or Walgreens is they’re open 24hr

The local Walmart hired off duty cops and the law says you can just walk out but they have cop attitudes and will fuck with you over anything because of their stupid power trip.

I bought some Beats Solo Buds right after Christmas. I had a trip upcoming and couldn’t wait for shipping so I looked at Best Buy and they said my local store had them. After waiting 20min for them to not find the right model or colour I went across the street to Target and bought them there, which still took at too long.

I order everything usually and my trial back in brick and mortar revealed it’s only gotten worse now.

Not really. I don’t understand the fediverse at a basic level—what makes it different from Reddit or digg. I heard about it on Reddit, but never even used the website there. I came from Alien Blue. It seems like people are just telling me to close this account and create a new one but using more complex language like “migrate to another instance” but I can see every instance and don’t understand what’s the point.

That’s not how the app works and shows things. That seems more like desktop stuff which is not something to do. I can already subscribe to anything I want, I just don’t know what I can write since I’ve randomly been banned or muted without comment and I understand it’s because of the bullshit moderators I’m on. Someone had to tell me I was on world and now I see it by going to my settings. Otherwise everything looks like and works like Reddit in the app

I don’t use the website. I wouldn’t even know where to go. That’s the problem with Lemmy and the fediverse. I’m not some tech pleeb. I could figure it out, I’m sure, but it’s not where I can just open an opp therefore it’s not something I will do and Lemmy will never supplant Reddit because of that

It’s not that easy for some of us. I’m using the voyager app on iOS. Otherwise I have no idea or technical knowledge to get on Lemmy. I don’t know how to change instances and keep what I’ve subscribed to

By this logic they should ban all religious speech from every platform

We don’t have a social contract. It’s everyone for themselves.

And Reddit

Even if they proved it was him it doesn’t matter. When OJ was acquitted, Jurors admitted they did it as a fuck you to the LAPD and justice system.

Thanks for asking because I’ve never understood them before now

The biggest problem is them doing illegal shit like scanning all your photos instead of just what you pick

The prosecution doesn’t get to file for mistrial after a jury has rendered its verdict

And I can still run a 2010 MacBook with 4GB to do photo editing and render non HD video

Bloat is too mild a word for Windows

Checks out

But then you have to remove ALL consumer protections on contracts. Payday loans can start charging 20,000% interest and make you sign a line that uses fancy language to put your car up for collateral. You could prohibit people of a specific race from renting or buying property.

So go that way, but also disband every government agency because if we’re sovereign then that’s it. Every man is his own government.

Or maybe we could just keep the protections we have and expand them to cover an industry that’s thrived on screwing over artists it’s whole existence.

It sounds like you don’t need a laptop, you need a desktop
