Hörde en massa fulla ungdomar ute igår som brölar som vilda djur runt 22:00 som festar iom studenten. Jätteroligt att de firar livet, men asså jag har jobbat hela dagen o försöker koppla av med frun och spela innan läggdags. Känner att vuxenlivet gör mig cynisk.

Who would have though that being told from a young age that you're sick and disgusting for being attracted to different people than them would lead to mental health issues. Sadly I know people who would see articles such as this to confirm their beliefs, "They do drugs and are depressed because they know what they're doing is wrong".

While my country has definitely gone a long way towards being inclusive and accepting theres still a lot of hate behind closed door or in blue collar jobs, mostly from the older generations.

Not an American, and while I do think it's wrong and a breach of privacy rights, I'm hardly surprised.

Came here to say Mirrors Edge. Fantastic game, beautiful theme. But damn did Most Wanted have some great tracks.

Just got back into reading after not doing it for a few years. Right now it's on an app (moon reader) on my phone. Mainly because I downloaded 20 000 leagues under the sea on project Gutenberg. Found myself reading a lot during slow moments at work. Otherwise I prefer to read a physical book before bed or on the balcony.

No idea how accurate this report is. Either way people online tend to be a vocal minority. The vast majority of people using Netflix either aren't on Reddit or other discussion forums, or are simply lurkers who never comment. I find that people that do comment tend to be doom and gloom when it comes to these sort of things. That applies to me too, as I certainly won't buy Netflix due to their content.

But Netflix is large enough that it will probably be fine for quite some time. Even so I do think streaming is declining rapidly due to too many services and studies have shown that people do pirate more when accessing content becomes tedious. It's all a matter of comfort.

Not a chance, I use Facebook only for groups (have rats so in a few niche groups), and the Meta quest headset since it was what I could afford for VR and it's standalone (shame it's not owned by oculus anymore). Other than that I refuse to use metas products and have never felt the need for twitter.

Tiring to see reddits downfall due to corporate greed, just as so many other sites in the past. Honestly surprised old.reddit is still around, seeing how they certainly dont like users using anything but their own inferior app. While spez said it wouldn't go anywhere I have my doubts about that.

This just proves it's not about pricing, just unwillingness to let users choose.
