No Stupid Questions•I’m small down there and get my fiancé off with a big dildo. Do you see any issue with this?
21·5 days agoNo way - you straight up say she enjoys having sex with you, and you’re making sure she’s taken care of. Who cares how it’s done - you enjoy it, she enjoys it, and you both get to finish. I see nothing but wins here, king.

Mildly Infuriating•The show I was watching went from "Free" to "Paid" *while I was watching it*English
2·5 days agoYou mean it when to “They don’t want my money anymore since they removed it from the tier I was paying into, so they won’t mind me getting it in other ways”
Yup, and you’ll see the idiots I droves coke to defend it, too - “but the water resistance!” As if they’re swimming with their phone or something. The S5 was fine for using in the rain and getting splashed.
When they removed SD cards from the more recent phones, the idiots were out there in droves telling me how nobody uses SD cards but me. Crazy what some people are willing to store on somebody else’s computer, and how much people are willing to over-pay for storage. Absolutely wild.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Why Canada should avoid Australia’s teen social media ban: A call for better solutions -- [Opinion]
1·8 days agoRight, and how does one define it sensibly? Especially when you’re considering a law that affects a group of people as diverse as a country’s population, and when it is regarding something that is dynamic in nature.
Why not make ALL salaries public regardless of if they’re private or public sector? Imagine the fun you could have with that kind of data

Canada@lemmy.ca•Why Canada should avoid Australia’s teen social media ban: A call for better solutions -- [Opinion]
3·8 days agoThe bigger problem is how you define “social media”.
Do we can all message forums and Discord? Wikipedia has the “Talk” section, doesn’t that make it social media?
What about the drives of worthy educational content on YouTube?
What about the flood of misinformation sites that are likely to pop up as they’re going to be much harder to filter out?
Nope, in fact I got good at IT shit because it seldom worked and I had to do the work of troubleshooting and figuring things out. And times were better because we had that ability.
There’s been this stupid drive of “user friendliness” = removing useful power features from software.
Now everybody just expects things to work, and they don’t care about having any ability to learn about it or fix it, and we’re all paying for it. Things are likely getting shittier over time specifically because of people refusing to learn and accepting “If it doesn’t work, I guess I need to buy a new thing”. Fuck that line of thinking - if it’s digital, it can be done eventually. It’s just a case of figuring out how, or waiting a bit for hardware to get to the point where it can be done.
Hold on hold on, are you saying the Lemmy server we registered on is… A LIE? THERE ARE LIES ON THE INTERNET?? Oh noooooo
Meanwhile we still have people screaming about the Sunshine list in Ontario, because it stayed at $100,000 while inflation continued to rise. If it stayed true to purpose, it would be closer to $200,000 now.

Leopards Ate My Face•U.S. veteran "100 percent" regrets voting for Trump after ICE detains his wife. Now she's locked up on Thanksgiving Day — despite not being charged with any crime.English
19·23 days agoThese people are proving on a daily basis that they are unpleasable. Their guy won the election. They are getting daily wins on what they voted for, and yet all they do is bitch and moan when they get what they voted for.
Why the fuck did they vote for this if they didn’t want it? “Oh, but I didn’t vote for me to get fucked” No, but three streets over some guy voted for you to get fucked. And you voted for the person who got fucked yesterday to get fucked. You’re all fucking winning, shut up and enjoy it.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Guilbeault quits Carney’s cabinet over energy deal with Alberta
1·24 days agoI wish I could do that, but it’s not worth the risk when my local guy wins and we lose massively at a federal level, so local guy can’t really do much of anything at all.
brax@sh.itjust.workstoPiracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Plex is now enforcing remote play restrictions on TVsEnglish
21·24 days agoIt is heping Plex by adding to their number of users and further justifying their enshitifcaiton.
The correct move is to uninstall it and use an alternative.
Accepting enshitifcaiton and the downward trend of the status quo is why we have enshitifcaiton and the downward trend of the status quo.
Companies know users will just accept shit rather than be mildly inconvenienced or uncomfortable for a bit while they learn something new, even if it’s a million times better.

5·24 days agoWhich alternative should I have chosen: Voting for who I want and letting Cons win, or not voting at all and letting Cons win.

21·24 days agoThe entire side service they’re they’ve been pushing where they want to inject their own streaming crap into the media server. The whole point of Plex used to be for you to host your own media collection, and was relatively hands-off. But sure, continue to support them by using the software and inflating their numbers. Don’t cry to me when better options crumble and all you’re left with is a completely enshitifed app, what do I know? Lmao

51·24 days agoIf the threat of losing the election was to the Liberals then yes. But until we ditch fptp we’re stuck with a two party system pretending to be a multi-party system.

Yeah, I only use that hot mess of an OS when I get paid to use it lmao
