If I’m not mistaken, Kutcher’s letter actually referenced the verdict.

TNG is a good entry point, but the first two seasons can be rough. Feel free to skip them if they’re on the verge of turning you off the series entirely.

It would be nice if Lemmy had a way to consolidate cross posts to avoid this problem. I also find it annoying - if they would all collapse down to a single entry in the feed, it would solve it.

The best part is when the publisher shuts down the server on their end so the game breaks even if you are connected to the internet. I’m still waiting for Blood Dragon to get a patch to remove the periodic calls home, but it doesn’t seem likely at this point

I like to say “before the turn of the century”, but someone always gives me shit for it.

I think they were just expressing empathy. If so, I agree with that sentiment. Your family done you dirty. Hope things are better now, or shortly will be.

I really hope it will turn out that they got a bunch of useful stuff from Alex Jones’ cell phone data.

To be fair, the hand wringing activities around exploding heads probably included a lot of soul searching and deciding what is and is not important to the admins. Stands to reason that having learned and made some decisions from that would make the process faster next time around.

The parents are happy, because this means they can get paid for sending their kids to what they consider daycare.

It’s not the years, honey. It’s the mileage.

I still remember the first time someone told me about EverQuest. I legit thought they were trying to trick me.

It’s also worth considering that this high-level definition is describing the circumstances after the system takes hold and becomes dominant. Thankfully, the US is not a fascist state yet, so whatever policies are currently being pushed by Trump and the GOP should be seen as part of an effort to gain power, not as an accurate reflection of what policies to expect after uncontested power has been seized.

And, historically, the followers who benefit from fascism tend to be the ones most closely aligned with and actively involved in promoting and enforcing the fascist regime - not necessarily the patsies who got them there in the early stages.

It’s true, but it only applies to the stuff you don’t want there anymore.

Like the anchor tenant of a shopping mall.

This is why I’m glad I made redundant accounts on multiple instances. When there are problems on lemmy.world, I can just hop on over to another. That’s never been an option with Reddit.

Now if there was only a way to export or sync user settings like subscriptions, it would be perfect.
