What does it mean to “Shout down a speaker”? What are they speaking about and what is the purpose of shouting at them?

We have re-invented trains for the 500th time. Good job world.

I’ve been seeing this a lot lately. Lots of bandwagoning going on. It is what it is though. People are fallible and often just follow the herd instead of thinking.

I’m sorry friend. Stopping is not an option. Drown the memories of your past with the memories of the future.

Web pages of today have so much added on nonsense. It’s not necessarily data farming, but also the frameworks used to develop the website themselves. Modern websites are basically entire software running in the browser even when it is used to run a simple seemingly static page. The purpose of these frameworks is to make complex things more simple for developers to make, but then people end up using them in situations that might not call for it. I think there is a general belief that since computers keep getting more powerful that it is fine to keep making software bigger and less efficient.

That isn’t a good justification to me. If it’s ok for you then it’s ok for the rest of the world too. You might believe ads aren’t bad and that’s fine. At least we can agree to disagree on that as our opinions aren’t reconcilable. If your app can’t exist without ads then I don’t believe it should exist at all. Or any other software in the world.

I’ll let you know in 2 years when it is on sale for at least 50% off.

Put it simply I just hate ads. Anything that puts in ads is terrible. Including Sync for Lemmy who seems to have completely missed the point of getting the hell away from Reddit.

The next terrible thing is automatically generated content and bots, but I guess those are also really just ads.

What is micromobility? I am unfamiliar with this term.

I wish people wouldn’t use Lemmy as a “link aggregator”. Instead of posting links to other peoples content how about having an original thought for once. Why is Lemmy acting as the comments section for some other website?

I’m also convinced these are really just paid for by Apple ads. I’ve never seen anyone care about such a thing.

Report as spam and unsubscribe. If they send you more emails they are in violation of the law for the canned spam act.

Vehicular manmurder is more like it.

I understand the headphones in this scenario would be made by Sony which is why it being partnered with Noctua seems kind of pointless. They don’t bring anything to the table when it comes to headphones beyond the color scheme.

No, because Noctua is not just a color scheme it is a company known for making quality fans. I don’t care about brands. I care about quality products and as far as I’m aware they have never produced headphones before or know anything about making headphones.

The pay for this job is that you won’t take away their rights? I’d hate to see the other jobs you’re offering. 😅

Unfortunately everything is an ad now. It’s the only way these sites are capable of surviving.

I’ve never seen this show, but that guy 2nd on the left looks like some kind of skater punk in space. And that thing on the far right just makes me laugh because of how serious he is being while looking like that. I need to watch some of this just to see what it is like.

Yes, which works for the few, but they know that the majority are completely oblivious and will just consume whatever they are given.

When looking into this show awhile back I heard something about how the CGI effects were done in 4:3, but then a latter release was in 16:9 so all the CGI was stretched because they couldn’t re-render the CGI. Are they implying that this is going to be resolved with this release?
