Let me translate: "I made an utterly tasteless and shitty abortion/miscarriage-adjacent meme that got moderated and I CANNOT stop whining about it, but liberals are the sensitive snowflakes around here"

Suuuuuuure, everybody is sensitive but you, pal.

I'm an old, but not quite that old

You can learn by watching anime, but you'll sound like a 14-year-old. Japanese has various levels of politeness that need to be mastered if you don't want people to think you're an idiot.

*source: speak Japanese, lived in Tokyo since late 00s. I often sound like an idiot in Japanese, so don't get your pants in a bunch.

Same! Not sure why Google doesn't crack down on it. They either don't know, don't care, or quietly want to encourage people to become Android devs

You're entitled to that opinion, but if I go out right now and murder someone with my vehicle due to deliberately or accidentally getting drunk, I'm probably going to jail. Corporations have demanded that they be treated as people, so...fine. Let's give them what they want.

Well, you probably just need to buy that shitty Redmi then. My shitty Redmi thinks it's a new Pixel, however, thanks to my dumb ass learning a few new tricks on my old S7 back in the day 😉

Find your exact device here and then look at tutorials for unlocking your bootloader and installing a custom ROM. I had a Galaxy from that era and it's relatively easy to pwn them. As a noob, you should set aside a day for the process and make sure you've carefully read all the tutorials before that day. Careful prep will save you a lot of stress.

This happens with every migration from a large platform. One thing that insulates the fediverse, I think, is that it's non-commercial nature makes it enshittification-proof. There are a lot of significant problems, but it's super attractive that some tech-bro dickhead won't blow up the platform to satisfy shareholders' insatiable profit-lust.

Reddit is now firmly on the enshittification path, so it's only a matter of time before another exodus wave.

That's correct, but a lot of foams and soft plastics are also inherently unstable under normal conditions. Many consumer products have foams or soft rubbery exteriors that will quickly breakdown in a matter of years. These products should just be banned, they just contribute to landfill waste and planned obsolescence.

I agree, and, furthermore, corporate death penalties for this kind of shit need to be an actual thing. Did your actions directly cause disease and death? Yes? Great, we're dissolving your board, banning them form serving on the board of any publicly traded company for a decade, liquidating company assets, and criminally charging anyone who touched this shit with a 10-foot pole.

Jesus Christ. Theme: tell me you're an American without telling me you're an American.

Best healthcare in the...ya know, fuck it, I can't even sarcastically finish the sentence
