I'm just this guy, you know? Except on Lemmy.

Thanks to /u/crank0271 for the name

RIP Kbin.social

  • Data centers are the latest, most visible signs of corruption in our government.

  • Super cool of the media to drop this on Friday afternoon when nobody cares

  • My kid wants to build a gaming PC for their birthday.

    Am I cooked?

  • I estimated the generations for mine and just added two because we came 40 years after. Depending on the fecundity of my line it might be more than that.

  • No, those are 15th generation.

    We came from Germany to Philadelphia via Dublin a little after them because the French burned our house down.

  • As a 13th generation North American I don’t get this meme.

  • I think they were feeling disillusioned well before Trump.

    To me, the whole attitude started back in the late 90s and early ‘00s when groups like Limp Bizkit took off and “The Real Slim Shady” was huge. That attitude feels like the genesis of how these guys act.

    ETA: I’m watching Ben Folds’ “Rockin’ the Suburbs” and it’s exactly that vibe

  • This isn’t new. The HN thread brings up Office Space which is almost 30 years old at this point. Then there’s the joke about senior devs seeing themselves as farmers in ten years.

    Once you do something you’re excited about for a couple decades you start to be less excited about it.

  • I drove seven hours to TN to get maximum totality. The drive home was 14 hours. Just a sea of cars as far as the eye could see.

    Worth it.

  • Another good eclipse map is the one showing the massive traffic jams that start right after local totality

  • I’ve been here since ‘16

  • I vehemently refuse to feel hope.

  • Stopped clock brain is right twice a day

  • “Slams”, v.: Writes a strongly worded letter to people who either don’t care or can’t read.

  • What a stupid world.

  • We live in a boring, ugly, stupid universe.

  • Even when Dems win I don’t feel like I have a seat at the table.

    At best I feel like I’m at the kids’ table. “That’s nice that you want that, sweetie. Now eat your veggies and maybe there will be pie”

  • Oh so it’s never gonna work. Gotcha.

  • I’ve been voting in primaries since the year 2000. When will it start to work?
