I'm here to be cute and be inflammatory. Lemmy is a dumpsterfire and I am a pyromancer raccoon.
Just thinking about how if the Americans lost their independence war the entirety of anglo north America would be like Canada gives me timeline envy.
People who care about grammar, particularly on the internet, live the unfortunate reality of getting upset over something that will never change.
I derive a sick pleasure from seeing people I dislike die. Hihehohohiho
Yeah exactly, what good is a more powerful legislative if it spends its entire existence not doing anything
I agree but at the same time the US congress has been incapable of doing anything to the point where the only feasible way of change is through the US president. Point and case, look at the naked orange baby.
Yeah he just deleted my comment lol. Well I guess that's that, time to pack up and move out
The instance name is cringe and dumb. I'll give you that 😭
Yeah the conservative community is a trainwreck. Thats every conservative community though not just the one on hc. I blocked it when they first announced it lmao because I knew exactly what it would turn into. Probably why I haven't seen any of the right wing extremism stuff people keep talking about lol
Thanks I did just that and was able to see it :)
I mean that entire thread is a dumpster fire but I see what you mean
Yeah trolling is a whatever issue for me, I'm not bothered by it. I haven't seen any right wing extremism stuff. I am blatantly leftist and haven't been kicked out of hc. I think tolerance of leftism sorta disqualifies it from being extremist lmao. I didn't realise so many instances de-federated from hc. When I had my account deleted from lemm.ee with no warning for expressing my disapproval of moderators I joined hc. I'd had fun interactions with Alice before and the instance description stated they had a free speech policy (paraphrasing) so I joined up. There's a few things I dislike such as downvotes not being visible but when I brought that up the whole community actually had a discussion about it which I'd never experienced before and made me feel like I was actually part of a community. I'll think about trying out another instance to see if being de-federated from really bothers me. Ideally I want to be able to talk with as many people as possible.
I think that link is dead?
What's exploding heads?
Or you could visit said communities and make up your own mind.
Thank god
I've realised that while my parents complained about how bad candy is and how much better it used to be, I'll be complaining about how bad technology is and how much better it used to be :(
Nice, good luck :)
Oh so they're stopping this then, right?
Outsider perspective 2nd amendment is a joke, the only thing it guarantees is a disproportionate level of gun crime and perpetuates a police culture of kill or be killed.
You just have to lie about what you're researching.

Found this video about political parties in the upcoming election informative.

Love the unintentional comedy of some parties sounding reasonable before jumping off the deep end.

Do you like the taste of vinegar? Does anyone?
Honestly very confused by how it can be a mainstream condiment/dressing. For me it's just acidic. Doesn't really taste of much but sorta tingles on my tongue/throat. Sorta like when you burp up a little stomach acid or a milder version of when you throw up stomach acid. Very confused about salt and vinegar chips and any sort of vinegar based salad dressing.

crashing out of team fortress 2 matches
Using Mint cinnamon
I can launch the game easily enough. When I start playing in a match everything works fine initially. Anywhere from 30 seconds to 5 minutes into a match my fans will ramp up to full before my PC hangs and turns itself off.
Launching from steam with "-windowed -noborders" in the launch options, without this the game refuses to launch at all. Adding "-vulcan" to this causes no change to the above situation. I've tried running with a steam compatibility tool but it also refuses to launch. Happens when launching with the legacy opengl option too.
Don't know what to do from here, haven't seen anything similar looking online

Did this instance disable downvotes?
Just wondering since I'm not seeing them on my end anymore.
