Synology: we used to make a good product that people liked, but we have decided to enshitify it in the hopes of more profits.

Synology next year: why have all of our customers switched to various linux server solutions (small customers), cloud solutions (big customers), and other brands (big customers)?

I would definitely recommend against them at this point.

Don’t say it or you’re an anti-semite. Shocking that opposing the murdering and starving of people is antisemitic.

I remember as a young man thinking that Newt Gingrich’s Contract on America would be the worst bill I would see in my life. Wow, was I naive.

I would be happy of your stocks got a new basis every year. The delta between the old basis an the new basis is ordinary income and you owe taxes based on that income.

If everyone is a billionaire, then no one is a BILLIONAIRE.

Me: just trying to get some laughs on Lemmy.

You: old peeps want to catch some strays.

I have been listening to the Beastie Boys since 1986. How is that already almost years? Paul’s Boutique is probably my favorite album of all time.

A girl I knew in high school had parents that didn’t let her do very much. She got pregnant her first semester of undergrad. I think she also experimented with some drugs, but I don’t have first hand knowledge of that, just rumors.

Designed to cover the smell of a dirty adult diaper. Your coworkers will be able to smell you coming when they’re indoors and you are in the parking lot.

America was pretty great when the Great Galveston hurricane hit, so we need to recreate that scenario. Still the deadliest storm in U.S. history. Maybe that record can fall? Imagine Katrina, but with no evacuation.

I’m pretty old, so I still speak Dan Rather / Tom Brokaw English (American?). Might have a touch of Walter Cronkite even, although I was pretty young when he retired. I have no skibidi toilet, but I like to misuse it in the hopes of killing it off with my uncoolness. I am definitely excited about the world going to Ohio in a handbasket.

I gues we shouldn’t have made fun of moron for thinking Georgia was Alabama. Disrupting climate change tracking is just an added bonus for super petty grudge holder. Prosecutorial immunity for elected officials was a terrible mistake.

Fall guy. Somehow the blame for his obvious incompetence will not be imputed up the command chain.

One of the reasons i don’t make policy decisions: my solution yo the antivax problem is to develop a bioweapon and a corresponding vaccine. Secretly add the new vaccine into all other vaccines for two years. Warn people that the coming flu season is going to be bad and that a new dangerous strain of covid is spreading to increase vaccination rates. Then deploy the bioweapon. No more antivaxxers.

They imagine themselves as disgruntled owners rather than the slaves. All because of skin tone. Boy is the monkey paw going to bite them in the ass when the orange nazi wannabe brings slavery back.

I wonder if they undeleted comments that moderators deleted.

Let’s play youth football. CTE is even worse for children than adults, but hey sign this waiver for your kid.

And yet somehow you watch a couple of hours of YouTube during which time you drift in and out of consciousness until you have to go pee. Then you brush your teeth and go to bed.

Years ago, I had a cat that loved cantaloupe. He was a stray in terrible shape when we got him (he adopted us). Our theory was that he found a cantaloupe that saved him from dehydration when he was feral. One of the nicest cats I have ever known.

It hasn’t really ramped up to anywhere near the levels I am talking about yet. I am looking at it from a perspective of WW3 woth billions dead before it lowers carbon emissions. Pretty that carbon will not be our worst concern among all of the fallout.

My cat wants food she can kill herself. That and cheese. I have no idea why she is so interested in cheese. Also, we tend to not eat tuna to avoid her pestering.
