Yep, that's how it goes with the anti-vaxx movement.

Gen 0 - lived with the reality that multiple people they knew died because of viruses and lined up to get vaxxed when they became available. Then went on to get their kids vaxxed because human ingenuity found a way to curb suffering.

Gen 1 - grow up and got their kids vaxxed because, while they might not have seen it first hand, they remember stories from their parents and were horrified. “Thank god we’re found a way to stop it!”

Gen 2 - get their kids vaxxed because they aren't stupid, and it's just become a routine part of raising a child.

Gen 3 - have the luxury of being so far removed from the horrific impact of these preventable virus' that they decide vaccines should be optional because.... "Don't tell me what to do, science nerds"

Yeah, reading between the lines, it sounds like the poor guy was not in any condition to take care of himself and likely had no idea what was even happening to him for that week. What a horrible way to go.

Meh, I'm not so sure. We need to get used to the fact that reddit's fuckery is unlikely to ever re-produce the massive influx of new users that the API nonsense did in 2023. That was a one-off thing that drove out all the OG users. The people left on reddit are the types that refer to it as an "app" and probably don't even know old.reddit exists. Those kinds of people will grumble but they aren't going anywhere. And frankly, that's fine by me.

Edit: lmao okay, okay, Lemmy got 6 new users today. I get it. My point that we're never going to see another user influx on the scale of the summer 2023 API changes has been proven wrong. Congrats everyone. Let's hope half of them actually stick around.

Yeah, that's pretty damn ugly.

So much respect.

It's almost seven years old, but sadly, more relevant today than it's ever been.

Meh. Only suckers give a shit about the “generosity” of billionaires. Tax them. Tax them down to millionaire status. Why should they dictate what programs get funded? It’s never worked before.. it’s not suddenly going to start now.

I mean, your own tumblr link is proof of that. After all, Gotham’s still a crime ridden shithole, isn’t it? Clearly Bruce Wayne doesn’t know what Gotham actually needs.

Seconded, but they just go by Tuta now.

Yep, it's from a TV show called Parks & Recreation.

Yeah, I don't think it effects browsers.

Yeah, I'm really glad I found out about Jellyfin. I switched to Jellyfin because Plex doesn't let you disable Passout Protection (automatically stopping playback after something like 3hrs) without Plex Pass. I was just about to fork over $95 for a lifetime license when I looked into Jellyfin and discovered continuous playback was the default. I switched that very day and never looked back.

I miss the good old days when reddit admins still pretended to be part of the community. Anybody remember the "when this post is [x hours old] reddit will go down for [xyz]" posts? Then the admins were in the thread cracking jokes with everyone about the fact that their servers were powered by hamster wheels and they couldn't afford a programmer? Oh how the times have changed...

Yep, she was a good girl that definitely deserved better. Tasty treats? Yes. Becoming the face of Elon Musk's neo-fascist movement? No.
