Jesus, there's some real intellectual elitism being displayed in this thread. Like I understand that the American education system is shitty and a large portion of the population is just functionally literate, and I understand the frustration of having to deal with those types of people and having to explain things to them. But, that's one thing, it's another completely different thing to call them idiots or see them as lesser. They're most likely not idiots, it probably just means they has less help and/less experiences than you did as a kid to better understand some of the things you did. You should never look down upon someone for being less intelligent or less educated than you. Those things are not the entirety of what make up a person's worth. There's things like creativity, emotional intelligence, etc. Everyone deserves the same base level of respect, and if you think you're the smartest person in a room bar none, you actually the idiot.

Windows 11 has been a nightmare for me. Every time I leave the file browser open my fans start up like I'm doing something insensive. Mssms freezes constantly, visual studio freezes constantly. Switching between virtual desktops? Not without waiting 30 seconds. And finally, idk if this is a dell thing or a win11 thing but the "low power mode" that activates if my battery is at or below 10 percent, despite me turning off all battery saving settings I can find, makes my computer functionally useless. Programs don't load, I can't close or open anything. Like the whole point of low power mode is so you have a little more time to wrap up things before you can get to a charger. There's no point to that if you set my PC so low power that it literally can't even run the bloated ass OS on it. I hate it so fucking much.

It's because we're living in a post American assimilation world and they don't realize that happened. But my grandparents would talk about how they'd be slapped on the hands with rulers for speaking Cajun French and now it's a dead language. This law feels like the first step to a similar cultural assimilation.

I also hope so

50% of the wealth in America is now owned by the top 1%, they can effectively ignore what we want and turn a more reliable profit, that is, of course, until the bubble pops.

What's crazy is in my area, most people are Cajun, the Cajuns faced so much discrimination, deportation and even an attempted genocide, and successful assimilation, Cajun French is essentially a dead language. Their Great and great great grandparents were facing discrimination for being accepting of people of color and for not speaking English. Yet due to lack of education of their own history most Cajuns don't realize they're perpetuating the very injustices their ancestors went through, hell, there's a huge population of cajuns that are POC and don't even realize it!

There are several instances where it looks like he has shat his pants, one The Apprentice contestant claimed he's been incontinent since the 90s

That particular 360 is the new Xbox 360 that came with the Kinect and is only about 13 years old

I didn't say either of those things. I said it's in poor taste to specifically make fun of the most vulnerable people in a society in your clapback.

 
 

People say it feels like old reddit and it does to a degree, but in other ways it feels better!

People are so interested in finding alternatives to the systems that we hate, and actually are passionate about supporting those things and developing them into useable and enjoyable platforms.

People are interested in spreading the word about the importance of unions and the climate crisis. Idk if those posts just get squashed on reddit, but I've seen SO much more talk of workers rights and informing others about them.

It just gives me hope about the future for once. Like things are happening that are different, and I know that we can't be silenced here. This is a platform by the people, for the people, and that can't ever be fully taken away.

Just as the title says, I have two accounts on connect

On for sh.itjust.works, and one of lemmy.world

When I'm logged into the lemmy.world the sidebar opening especially lags way more than with the sh.itjust.works account

Edit: it appears to possibly be related to the number of subscriptions rendered in the list.

Before they load things seem to run more smoothly

My notifications on any app I login to say "not_logged_in".

Some apps say I'm not following any communities, others do.

Any time I close out the website, when I open it again I have to login.

Some apps don't let me comment.

Edit: it was an issue with sessions on lemmy.world not my account. It appears the admins are working on this still? Idk, apps are still giving me issues.

 

I hope I'm not costing the dev lol
