You don't know what the word regular means. It does not mean acceptable or morally correct. It's synonyms include "standard", "usual", "typical" etc. It does not imply anything other than that. Dairy milk is the usual, typical, standard substance that is referred to as "milk" by 99.9% of the English speaking world.

No algorithmic suggestions and therefore, no curated daily taste playlists, no sorting your library by genre (at least not as granular and specific as Spotify unless you put in as much work as they do at tagging your music), finding new music manually takes at least 10x more effort and you're limited to the taste you already know you have. If you switch phones you're SOL unless you want to deal with the insanely slow transfer speeds of androids MTP or whatever apples slow ass transfer protocol is. Not to mention your library is limited by how much space you have. My 10,000+ song playlists on Spotify aren't gonna easily fit on anyone's device, and definitely not at the highest quality that Spotify can stream at. Your only hope of getting even a comparable experience is to be tech savvy and patient enough to set up a home streaming server, manually tag all your music, and find an audio app with an interface/features that you like that also supports streaming. Oh and then your home computer needs to be on all the time, and your Internet has to be great, and you must not care about your energy bill that much, and ... I'm just gonna stop. Locally stored music is just not anywhere near as good. It's lame and tedious and nearly pointless. At most, I'd say keep a couple albums you like with high quality FLACs but that's it. You're waisting your time not getting Spotify premium or Apple Plus or whatever the heck

Oh and this is coming from 20+ years of pirating media. Limewire used to be the best, but now it's firmly Spotify etc.

They is grammatically correct for a single person so I'm not even kind of sure what you mean here

You get to work at your 11 o'clock pm overnight shift and your friend asks you if you got any sleep. "Yeah I slept tonight"

I've been saying fuck Israel for years. They've been tearing innocent families out of their homes to occupy their land for their entire existence. No fucking wonder they got radicalized and fight back. It's the same story with the US and Iran man, they helped create all the terrorists that attack them.

Palestine doesn't have an army, they're not allowed to.

This wave of AI singlehandedly radicalized me on data privacy, and even lead me to Lemmy. I used to not give even a little bit of a fuck, but now that my 10+ years of creative writing and online visual art portfolio are being used against my will as training data, I've gone full tinfoil hat. To think that my unique personality, experiences, style, and ideas are now able to be exploited and used by any lazy idiot to make money makes me rage. I switched majors from graphic design to CS because I need more people who think like an artist in charge of this stuff, and I plan on being one of those people. (Or at least a consultant, I mean you gotta dream big though)

You can't convince these nerds that feminism means anything but anti-men. You have to trick them into thinking that they are special somehow, or that it would benefit them in some great way to be a feminist. Especially on the Internet
