Yeah I get that!

Its not a great meme but its kind of true, at least for me, I’m someone who likes being alone a lot of the time and I don’t like to be bothered when I’m doing my own thing. They could have replaced "wife " with anyone who lives with you and it would have the same effect.

I experience it all the time too. Hanging out with friends, all staring at their phones. Can’t even have a conversation or wonder anything any more. The pull out their phone and ask grok the millisecond anything comes to question. Zero critical thinking.

Really hate that tech bros have commandeered their brains.

Smartphones, social media and uncontrolled capitalism at work.

People today are boring as fuck and addicted to phones and being enraged at disinformation.

Spotted one

All these downvotes are from unmarried chuds 😅 its a joke guys.

Ya i do that on mastodon! Its fun actually. Its slower at first but you gain followers and find people you like. Its not really chatting though.

OP may I recommend finding an IRC chat? Find a community you like and pop on there. Also less chances its a bot you’re talking to.

Proud of that one :)

Havent looked into this because by the time you wanna deep clean carpet its better to rip it up. A hard floor and rugs are far superior.

House had new carpet when we moved in 7 years ago. Its shit now (cheap hardware store carpeting no doubt ), ripping, holes, etc. Amazingly didnt stain very bad tho, modern carpet doesn’t stain if it isnt white.

For rugs yeah I still just Beat It

Also have heard deep cleaning ruins carpets and actually makes them get dirty faster and harder to clean. Not sure if true.

Split fiction IRL 😅

Exactly.

I love ghost. Great songwriting and their mixes are fuckin solid (Andy Wallace of course)

The songs are good. The person was a POS that I’m glad is gone. Sadly. So many musicians of that era are maga turds.

In for the long haul now.

Nice of the engineer to think of that!!!

Ban all social media that isnt the fediverse. Decentralized and no algirithm. Seems solid to me.

Yep. As I keep quoting Hubert Reeves:

Man is the most insane species. He worships an invisible God and destroys a visible Nature. Unaware that this Nature he’s destroying is this God he’s worshiping.

Have actual close family that recently had kids, refused all vaccines due to religious reasons.

Feel bad for those kids man.

This is my big thing. If theres going to be a data center, every bit of data should by law be public . if it was a factory, we know what its building. If its a mill we know its making flour. We dont know wtf the data centers are processing (likely flock data, best way to bomb brown kids, and making csam images for musk)

Been using next DNS free DNS. They get overloaded sometimes but usually work fine.
