Does that really count as “throw objects” though?

explodicle@local106.comto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•As someone not in tech, I have no idea how to refer to my tech friends' jobsEnglish5·1 year agoHow come they don’t count? They’re figuring out how the machines should work, for money. That’s engineering, right? (I’m an American mechanical engineer)
explodicle@local106.comto Fediverse@lemmy.ml•Announcing Ibis, the federated Wikipedia AlternativeEnglish1·1 year agoI’ve been scared to use that ever since they actually solved “Public reluctance to accept weird new forms of money”.
I’m not defending China here, but since Snowden we now know that American corporate spyware does serve the government. And they are suppressing democracy - this isn’t a democracy yet, and peaceful protests for democracy are met with violent police resistance - Occupy, BLM, etc.
I sincerely hope that Lemmy can grow large enough to serve as a staging ground for democratic protests in America, just because it’s not corporate controlled.
explodicle@local106.comto Technology@beehaw.org•Are We Watching The Internet Die?English16·1 year agoIf it really ramps up, we could share block lists too, like with ad blockers. So if a friend (or nth-degree friend) blocks someone, then you would block them automatically.

There’s nothing wrong or bad with it, but it’s a little gay, so it breaks their concentration and makes them feel uneasy.

explodicle@local106.comto Memes@lemmy.ml•Diablo 3 was not fun and Diablo 4 looks worse...English4·1 year agoI liked summoning in 3, but in 4 it feels like all the monsters just run straight past my summons to me. It’s like having an incompetent offensive line in American football. I just spend every fight running around avoiding monsters because they’re smarter than my skeletons.
explodicle@local106.comto Politics@beehaw.org•The Deep Weird: Consequences of the Rabbit HoleEnglish1·1 year agoCalling them weird isn’t going to work at all, that’s an absolutely terrible idea. Everyone wants weird. We need weird right now, just not their weird. We should be upping our weird game and present options that will work, that centrist libs will say are weirdly communist or anarchist sounding.
Things are about to change big time and it’s too late to stop that. The best we can do is shape it into something good. But nobody is buying tickets on the normal train. If you’re here on Lemmy, then you sure aren’t.

explodicle@local106.comto World News@lemmy.ml•South Korea to suspend doctor licences as strike crisis escalatesEnglish2·1 year agoI’m imagining that I might just leave and try either a different place, or treat it myself. One can’t blame a doctor for “choosing” to be up so long that they’ll make an understandable but deadly mistake.
explodicle@local106.comto World News@lemmy.ml•South Korea to suspend doctor licences as strike crisis escalatesEnglish2·1 year agoIs it rude to start asking them how long they’ve been up? I don’t even want medical advice from someone who’s been up 28 hours.
Can’t they just create pseudonyms?
Always real answer: they invested in BAT.
