Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Are data broker removal services actually legit?
12·3 months agoWell, they sell you a service to accomplish a result you could easily achieve yourself by thinking for 5 seconds before acting, on an easily-forgettable subscription model, and there’s literally no way to verify that they took any actual action on your behalf or that there was ever any action that needed to be taken in the first place… Yeah, seems legit.

71·5 months agoNo he’s right. There are politicians with any real power in North America who are anywhere close to left. Dems are right and Reps are fascist. It’s right and super-right in the US. Canada isn’t doing any better.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Did anyone else not even know who Charlie Kirk was!?
5·6 months agoI’d only heard of him in the sense of him being one of a flock of fascist wastes of oxygen who grifted around the country spewing hate and violence and making people’s lives worse and more dangerous. He was a name on a list of scum who we’d be better off with them never having been born.
All I’ve learned about him since is that I was fucking right. Having him not exist anymore is a net gain in the long term but he’s still pissing me off for now by the fact that I’m wasting my fucking time and my fucking attention and my fucking blood pressure on his fucking bullshit even more than I was.
He can fucking rot with Rush Limbaugh and Joseph Goebbels and the rest of their fucking detestable cabal of fucking filth. If I never hear his fucking name again it’ll be too fucking soon and the universe still owes me my fucking time back from every moment I’ve wasted having to fucking be exposed to this shit.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why do some people want to go back to the 1950’s?
9·8 months agoBecause they were young then.
Nope.
They’ll take what they choose to take. It’s 2025. Social mobility doesn’t exist, our votes are meaningless, and economic policies change with the seasons.
I have no agency, so it’s not worth the stress.
In this order:
-
Tell other adults you trust about the situation. Your wife. Her parents if possible. More than one other person.
-
Explain to her in very clear terms that you can’t have that kind of relationship. It’s not about what anybody feels, it’s about what is possible.
-
At the FIRST sign of any type of revenge seeking behavior, that’s when you consider the authorities and rely on backup from the adults you spoke to.
She very well might listen to you, process the rejection for what it is, and move on. Or she might flip out and cause you a mess. If she handles it well, she’s learned something and you’ve treated a growing human with respect. If she doesn’t, your ass is covered.
-
Upon death of the HUMAN artist, and with no transferability.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's the best way of dealing with Maga hatred, white power, genocide denial and other things you see a Lemmy user espousing?
61·11 months agoPublicly denounce them, then block them.
Reinforces to the public at large that they are unacceptable, and removes their agency to engage you.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I've seen a few guillotine posts of late, and it got me thinking. While it's a highly efficient means of execution, isn't it technically challenging?
14·11 months agoWell we have plenty of executives to practice on.
This.
There’s no answer without this tidbit.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•DAE feel like DuckDuckGo is now just as good as google for the vast majority of searches?
8·1 year agoI can turn off the horseshit firehose that we call AI, making it far better than google

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What hobbies do you practice that is other people's professions?
3·1 year agoI considered this until I learned how much more IT is paid than me, without needing the education and certifications that I need.
Funny, I can’t seem to remember which port my mouse plugs into on my work computer now.
Gotcha a bag full of titties there
