Oh. Gmod brain rot.

There's an interesting underlying message that I'm not sure is intentional, but yeah. Bunch of skibidi toilet "fun times" against the monitoring state engaged in war.

To me that says the only place where you're unmonitored in on the shitter, which is accurate given how much of a walled Garden we, the "adults" put together for kids doing remote learning by locked down Chromebooks during COVID. Seems like the youth putting these together were expressing their frustration with basically having no freedom to express themselves or even explore and have fun during the lockdown because of all the restrictions in place; not just the restrictions related to COVID, but all of the restrictions that parents and teachers had the opportunity to enforce very strictly partly due to COVID lockdowns.

It's a fascinating artistic statement from a pre-AI "art" era of only a few years ago.

10/10. Would skibidi again.

Sorry, but that comes off as a bit arrogant. There's still plenty of use cases for wired connections.

Older cars that either have aux or still need a tape deck adapter, that don't have Bluetooth.

Until recently, you couldn't use wireless headphones on planes.

On top of that, there's vanishingly few USB C to headphone adapters that also allow you to charge your phone, so if you're using wired headphones, and you need to charge your phone, you have to stop listening, in order to plug in to charge.

There's a lot of compromises and trade offs.

I'm not saying that one is definitely better or not, there's a thousands of ways to connect everything that works. Not every solution is going to work for every person and every use case.

I get what you're saying, but no. Just no.

IMO, there's no reason that vine needed to be shut down. There's so many ways to monetize that kind of platform, and they basically said "we can't figure it out" and closed up shop.

For feedback, I would just print off the federal labor codes for my country, highlighting specific sections. I'd just hand it to the management verbatim. I wouldn't cherry pick or leave anything out, just emphasize specific passages.

Guess what? That's illegal here.

It would be a thinly veiled threat that I'll ruin their lives if they don't back track immediately... All said without uttering a single syllable.

IMO, not specifically Harlem shake, no, but Harlem shake was a product of the Internet in its prime.

IDK if that makes any sense

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 months ago (9 children)

I'm not even sure what that means. I'm familiar with Harlem shake, but skibidi toilet?

The Internet is a weird place. I love it here.

That's a fair point. I would argue that critique and constructive criticism should not be presented in a way that is, in and of itself.... Mean (to put it simply).

There's a lot of ways to do the wrong thing with the best intentions.

Not edging or cumming, for starters.

Genuine question: apart from the people who would profit from the activities she was fighting against, or the would-be patrons of such a business.... Why would anyone carry hate for what she was trying to accomplish?

I know there's a whole religious argument, which I find to be wretched at the foundation; just because you 'have dominion' over creatures does not imply that it's ok to torture them and/or kill them for their fur unnecessarily....

Anything else? I just can't think of anything.

I would assume that the trolls are attracted to those people because they get more of a reaction to their vitriol. It's sad, honestly.

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Idk why. If it was the same person, the information is relevant to the discussion.

I'm happy to know that they were proud of what they were doing. I hope it was a light in their life.

It's terrible that anyone would hold any hate for someone trying to do the kind of work she was doing.
