You can really spend $1700 for an iMac or $1800 for a MacBook Pro that come with only 8GB RAM in their base configurations. C'mon.

Don't worry, I just checked with the Internet Police and it's fine

get their company name in the news

I feel like this really worked out well for Drinks Company

lemm.ee is cool because it federates with so many other instances. I don’t understand why so many people are set on taking that away when they could just join a different instance that shares their zeal for defederating.

Thank you for posing that question! I think the tendency to blame Russia/China/whomever is a complete failure to address the actual root of the issue.

If everyone who works for a non-American intelligence agency suddenly lost the ability to post on the internet, would Americans start getting along better? Or would a significant percentage of Americans still have a reactionary hate fest running on their televisions every waking hour, their opinions reinforced by Facebook echo chambers full of other actual Americans? I think the difference would be so small as to be imperceptible.

When it comes to tearing each other apart and working against our shared interests, America has a well-oiled machine running that hardly requires any foreign intervention.

If someone tells you no or you try and fail at something, life actually just continues on from that point, and you can try other things

We are upset that we can’t use the emoji >:-[

I don’t personally find these bot posts useful, and I think they clutter up the All timeline, but they aren’t being deceitful or anything, and there may be folks who find these posts useful. I like the lemm.ee federation policy of generally allowing everything unless it’s full of bad actors.

Many instances have disabled uploading images due to an recent attack on Lemmy servers. You may want to check your instance's "meta" community for any announcements about that.

I demand a dedicated button on the controller that makes my character say, "Soo... that just happened"

We're all trying to find the guy that did this

Have you ever, like, really looked at a window? I mean, reeeeaaally looked at it?
