I’m impressed that you managed to reach gf level with someone like that.

If I can’t get through a conversation with a person it’s just like, too frustrating for me. Makes me feel crazy too. Like I know I’m being coherent but talking to someone like that makes me feel like I have to try extra hard to understand them even though they’re the ones not making sense.

I still have my galaxy note 4 from ages ago and I want to turn it on again some day and get it to work again.

Right? Like the person who was insisting he was always bald due to some weird blind hatred. Like the guy use to just be a dumb stand up comedian/actor. As far as I remember he wasn’t outspoken in the 90’s like he is now.

Becky Connor. She was such a little bad ass when she was growing up and she does a hell of a job bouncing back from being a widow as an adult.

It did totally feel like a troll.

Yeah the bloatware doesn’t interfere with anything I do. I use some apps like I’m trash so I use a dating app, and I use a podcast app to listen to a show and a banking app.

The bloatware is just kind of in the background and I never fully install it when I get a new phone so it just stays in limbo.

Exactly but I’ve been crucified in conversation for bringing the show up because he was on there.

That’s really cool. You sound like one of my old roommates - he wanted to do the same type of games and do every part of making them.

ugh same.

I don’t know a single person who thinks you can’t like someone’s art because you dislike the artist

I know plenty of people like this.

lol even mods don’t follow rules on reddit and there are private subs where people do whatever the hell they want.

and we all know what reddit mods do.

I am legit trying to figure out why the apologists aren’t getting banned

You know, I would like to know this too. I sure as hell don’t want to interact with those people.

Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to communists who express support for one-party communist regimes that are associated with Marxism–Leninism, whether contemporary or historical. It is commonly used by anti-authoritarian leftists, including anarchists, libertarian socialists, left communists, democratic socialists, and reformists to criticise Leninism, although the term has seen increasing use by liberals and right‐wing factions as well.

this is what I’ve been going by cause I had to look it up as no one can be confirmed to give a straight forward answer on here that I’ve seen.

Never seen terms like “tankie” until I came here

I mentioned this once and then someone became super unhinged at me.

I mentioned that someone became super unhinged at me and that person seemed okay at first but then started talking down to me about politics in general.

It’s fucking weird here sometimes and I couldn’t be further removed from anything “tankie” related but random lemmy users will still screech it at me.

Talked to some knob the other day who was talking about ruling his small business with, and I quote “an iron fist”

Thankfully that’s not a common interaction but I do notice more hostile folks recently.

I actually keep seeing other repost bots show up

Me too. I was bummed because I had already blocked one and then another one popped up. For places I was already subscribed to that didn’t seem to be bot posts before.

I mean I bring my own laptop anyway. I can’t stop other people from using the TV.

Same here. I have the flip 4 z and it’s been great! And before this I had the galaxy note 20 and the galaxy note 4. Both fantastic phones. I do miss having the stylis but I didn’t want to get a fold.

I love that! I want to get more into collecting old tech and restoring it. I plan on getting myself an old computer that runs Windows XP and DOS too.
