  • I've never understood the appeal of meeting people at bars. If you want to build a relationship with someone, why not do it with someone you already know? Ask out a coworker or classmate or something. Why approach random people in bars purely based on their appearance?

  • It's a problem to have so many single, disaffected men out there

  • I started dating my wife when we were both in high school so I'm lucky that I never had to try to start dating in my 20s. But when I was in high school asking out a girl was as simple as walking up and saying "do you want to go out with me?"

    I asked out girls that I KNEW there was a 99% chance they'd say no, but I asked anyways. The worst they ever said was "no". Nobody ever laughed in my face or told all their friends or spread rumors about me, they just said no thank you and I moved on.

    This was like 2009-2013 mind you; I think young people are a lot more cruel now than they were then.

  • When I work on web projects at home I don't use any javascript at all. Just html and css. Interactions are handled via form submission. I'm working on a forum in asp.net mvc without any javascript at all

  • There's nothing interesting about it. It's a waste of storage space and computational power. It makes the world worse

  • I'd use it to make food

  • Straight up though the world peaked in the 2007-2010 in terms of culture. Everything has just gotten significantly worse since then and I feel bad for the zoomers and gen alpha who have to grow up in the 2020s

  • At work everything I do is in the Javascript/Web world. Typescript backend, webpack react, etc. I use C++ and C# for personal projects because I personally despise Javascript world

  • Shut up lmao

  • Because I'm tired of being told what to be outraged about

  • Im not an evangelist for windows (I won't try to convert you) but I'm unashamed of being a software engineer who uses Windows as my main dev platform

  • Hi I like Windows, I use it as my primary development platform

  • I have literally never seen whatever this post is referring to

  • I think if they were using windows they'd be far more computer literate, but they're just using iPad and chromebooks

  • No it's just that Zoomers only use touchscreen, which are vastly simplified devices compared to a desktop computer

  • Serious question: What makes Dragon Quest special? I've played turn based RPGs from that era and there never really seems to be any distinguishing characteristics between them

  • .ml should be defederated from lemmy.world tbh

  • Windows has a terminal now too!

  • Recently I've started working on coding a forum. I want to add in all the classic features of early 2000s/early 2010s forums like PhPBB and such. The goal would be to have no javascript at all
