See this is the mod for Pacific Drive that we all really want. ;)

I've been using Signal for years, and I can definitely say it's not "garbage". I'm not telling anyone else what to use, but there are far worse options out there for sure.

Any day that starts or ends like this is a good day. Fantastic work. :)

Reddit users who switched to Lemmy, what is the most annoying thing you have seen about Lemmy users? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

[-] xoagray@pawb.social 25 points 1 year ago

My only real complaint is that some of the groups I was in on reddit either aren't here, or are super small here. As far as the people go, maybe I've just been lucky but most folks have been pretty nice, and thus far I haven't really run into the extremist stuff some folks ahve mentioned.

Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world

[-] xoagray@pawb.social 23 points 1 year ago

The thing that really rubs me the wrong way about all this is we pay for Windows, I have 3 licenses for Windows 11 and it's gotten so annoying that I don't even use them anymore. I've been a Linux user for quite a while already and between Microsoft's doing more and more data collection, and more ads, I just walked away from it a couple years ago. Fortunately, I was in a position where I could do so. I feel bad for folks that must use Windows for this or that and can't escape it.

Has anyone else noticed a sudden lack of reading comprehension skills? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Idiocracy is slowly becoming a documentary, and I hate it.

Actually came here to mention this. I can't imagine anyone that wouldn't know the difference considering how popular both breeds are.

First Platinum pen, and first time using Platinum inks. the Curidas retractable pen. (pawb.social)

I love retractable fountain pens. So when I found that Platinum had one I had to give it a try, and I'm glad I did. Overall experience is this is a pretty decent pen, it feels good in hand, and it writes very well. I also got this pen for about half the price of the Pilot Capless. I'm hoping this pen does well as an every day carry. Right now I've been using my Lamy Safari for that, but having a retractable that's both high quality and relatively inexpensive I think might bump my Safari out of that position. The ink also seems to be pretty solid. it's a good looking blue/black. Though I did read that the ink is on the acidic side.

Purple ink in a box of Vert Amazone (pawb.social)

So I ordered a box of Green Vert Amazone cartridges from Jaques Herbin inks a little bit ago, just cracked the box and the first cartridge I pulled out was purple! I didn't expect that, and the rest of the cartridges appear to be the green I ordered. I have to wonder how often that happens.

Figured I'd make my first post here with my newest pen. This was a little gift to myself for 49 successful orbits of the sun. A polished Gravitas Skittle Paisley. I've wanted this one from the first time I saw it.

Sláinte.

Reddit Gives Final Warning to Subreddits Using NSFW Protest Tactic in c/technology@lemmy.world

[-] xoagray@pawb.social 43 points 1 year ago

I only go to Reddit now because of one or two forums that don't exist on here yet, But the more I see stories like this, the more I'm inclined to just say screw it and nuke my account.

You Can't Look at Porn on Any Reddit Third-Party App Now in c/technology@lemmy.world

[-] xoagray@pawb.social 4 points 1 year ago

Eh, honestly I don't care about the porn, but with a lot of subreddits flying the NSFW flag just to piss off advertisers, that makes life a lot more shitty. shrugs Oh well, just one more reason to make myself scarce there.
