Bro it's just a great fucking app, specifically for the design and user experience.

Also I (very loosely) know Lj and want to support his work.

You absolutely do not need to use Sync! Enjoy Lemmy through your app of choice!!

The one time payment to remove ads is 20$.

People are really overblowing the price. As other ppl have mentioned, lemmy is less than a fraction of the user base of reddit.

The 4x price increase isn't crazy. Devs need to make a living. I talk to Lj every now and then on Discord. Dude has been scrambling since the Reddit shut down to get out a working product. I really don't think it's price gouging to spend 20$ for an app I'll be using for maybe 30-mins to an hour almost every single day.

Alright I keep hearing about this one time payment to remove ads for 20$. Anyone know where I can find it?

I might end up getting a sync ultra subscription but for now I just want to remove ads.

Also.... I feel like I'm a crazy person but I'm not seeing many or any ads in the first place. or maybe I'm just not noticing them as I scroll.

Thanks in advance for anyone letting me know.

Yo yo what's good.

I've never had significant problems with alcohol. But lately, especially as I've not smoking weed for 5 months or so due to job hunt, alcohol has been my crutch at night more than I care to admit.

I've been selected for a position recently (an amazing upgrade from previous employments) and the background check is still processing. Extremely frustrating. Anyways I've been drinking heavily recently. This may not be much for other people, but for me it's too much.

Something like two Four Loko cans or maybe half or more of a fifth of vodka. Most nights for almost two weeks now. And lo and behold when I woke up today I noticed very very mild but still present gynecomastia.

To the eye it seems no different than but I have the mildest feeling of tissue around the nipple area that isn't muscle or fat. Anyways I've had mild gynecomastia in the past and it went away after weight loss and working out.

I do some research and confirm my suspicions that chronic/heavy alcohol intake can lead to hormonal imbalances and gynecomastia in men.

That's all I needed to lose my crutch for the foreseeable future. There's a lot of things I can tolerate in my life, but I cannot have boobs. And hopefully I get this new job and wanna put my best foot forward!!

I do think once I settle into my job and don't have to worry about drug testing, I will smoke weed occasionally. Goal is to just not drink anymore. Maybe for life??? 🤔 Idunno

My nights will be very different from now on. Won't have that quick escape and easy sleep. But at least, my nights won't have alcohol. Hope everyone out there is staying strong in their plans to stop drinking!!

They touched on this concept in the black mirror episode "Fifteen Million Merits". Very minor spoilers, read on if you dare

Not with a brain implant per se. But had to pay merits or else watch porn ads. And if you don't have any merits, guess what they're unskippable.

Hey dude!!

The file is still downloading via mega, but I just wanted to throw down a kudos!!

Looking forward to watching your re-cut and I'll share my thoughts after watching!!

Just curious, did you manage to include the redone VFX by pixeljoker95? That really would put this edit over the top!!

Anyways, cool beans and thanks 🙏 for sharing.

Pictures would be helpful for visualization

Bro I couldn't agree more.

Gaal is an alright character but bad in the role of protagonist.

[–] aubertlone 2 points 2 years ago

You didn't at all.

Chilling.

Lol gotcha.

I have nothing against anyone else's religion.

Just had to say something, because I like that saying about God's work. But feels disingenuous if I don't mention I don't think there is a god lmao.

I'm an atheist, but I just wanted to say...

You're doing God's work here. Keep it up.

A necropsy performed by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission’s Marine Mammal Pathobiology Lab found the fatal wound was a "14.5 cm long tear in the ventral wall" of his colon.

damn that sucks, unfortunate way to go
