One of the churches still has some original buildings from around 1740. Old for the us, not so old for Europe.

Given the Snowden revelations, what an unfortunate choice of names.

The people downvoting you either don’t like your humor or are blind about the rapey bastards.

This is hopefully going to get interesting. I don’t think he can actually put that much together to appeal it.

With all the work it took you’d think they would have done this prior to rollout

There’s probably a word for it in German or Swedish. I bet it’s long and hard to pronounce, maybe with a non-English pronunciation symbol.

There is of course a relevant xkcd page

I have been loving these

I think ‘lemmings’ is the most commonly used term. I would have used ‘motorheads’ myself though.

You can put a turd in an expensive suit, but in the end it’s still just Jamie Dimon.

Thank you!

Hey, hi. Did they not teach you at dipshit school to read the room? Even if anyone was inclined to use your shitty service, you’ve pre-biased them against you by going this route. In the future, try to do better. This is just pathetically inept, and demonstrates you don’t know where the fuck you are. You may have very experienced, knowledgeable personnel, and we’ll never know it because you’re “Corporate Sales Specialist” has no clue how to do his fucking job. Fuck right off, me

I use an iPad. Apple doesn’t seem to care where the file came from, they just make it readable. I was somewhat mad about it, as I have never been an Apple fan, but the actual experience of using the iPad as a reader converted me.

10+ years, I had really started to generate content the last couple years, and will now forever be at 49.5k karma. I even used the shitty app, but left for good when spez started talking about admiring musk. He’s an unredeemable prick.

This reminds me of the song by Owl City. Owl City - Fireflies

Some BBSs had a communication system called FIDOnet that would dial up back and forth in a hierarchy at night to update their forums. You could personally run something called a point on fidonet that was analogous to running an instance yourself on Lemmy. I ran a point in the early 90s.

You can see the costs for lemmy.world on the blog for the associated mastodon instance mastodon.world.

I started reading about Lemmy about ten minutes after reading this the first time. I can’t support that kind of stupid

Same. I’m still on the fence a little about deleting, it’s a fair amount of crap

Thanks! It still feels weird, I had my account for a long time and have a fair amount of karma, but the site has been going to shit for a while and enough is enough. This feels like the very early web or fidonet and I’m stoked to be here.
