miridius@lemmy.worldto memes@lemmy.world•Stop using a browser that violates user freedom and privacy!13·15 days agoI have to use Chrome for work and this whole thing is such a non issue, I switched to uBO Lite and have noticed zero difference.
There are plenty of reasons not to use Chrome but having to use uBOL instead of uBO isn’t one of them

miridius@lemmy.worldto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Trump Congratulates Leader of English-Speaking Country for His Good EnglishEnglish235·19 days agoI despise Trump more than most but this article is silly. Only about half of Liberians speak English, and less than 2% speak it as their first language. It’s the official language because there are 31 different languages spoken in the country and they need something to be lingua franca so why not make it English for added international appeal. India is similar

miridius@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If americans come to germany and act like german public Transport is the best, how frickin bad is american public Transport?3·20 days agoOk yeah DB has been woefully underfunded for decades thanks to auto industry lobbying and so now half the trains are late or cancelled, but the fact that you even can get from any city to any other city by train and then get to anywhere within each city by bus/tram is mind blowing to some of us that didn’t grow up in Europe. There are lots of places where you basically can’t live without a car, it’s insane.
Wow what a read! TIL. Thank you for this

This is lovely and wholesome, but you’re not the type of person the post is about.
Edit: sorry I just realised my comment was kinda glib, so let me elaborate. You didn’t specify but I assumed you approached those women with a friendly air, having a genuine desire to have a conversation with them as equals, and said something like “oh I love that album, have you listened to it?” Putting yourself in their shoes, compare that to a guy who approaches them aggressively, having a deep seated resentment for all women, and lashes out with “pretending you like that band huh? Prove it then, name 5 of their songs!”
miridius@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What the fuck happened to YouTube!?0·1 year agoIs that really how it works? I feel like the whole ad based economy is a sham anyway, I wouldn’t mind if it collapsed and we funded websites through micropayments or gift economy
