I play lots of games from my childhood. Even though it was before my time, Super Mario Bros on the NES is probably the oldest game I regularly go back to. But I love retro games, so I’ll play even older games on occasion.

(her boyfriend is no longer alive)

Because of anti-right wing rhetoric?

Are you aware that Lemmy was originally built by people who wanted a more open and free alternative to Reddit so they could discuss Marxist-Lennism and communism and stuff? Lol

That’s my understanding, at least

Their hardware is too expensive even with this subsidizing it

The commenter you replied to seems to be suggesting that the spying still happens

Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good

When did you see the most activity here?

They were angry before this and they’ll have been angry if this was never mentioned.

For those willing to learn, there’s an opportunity for a teachable moment

Lmao, I love this kind of stuff. It makes dumb people so angry

Professional services and medication cost money, especially not having to wait as much (the “emergency” part). They’re not a charity.

It absolutely sucks what you had to go through.

Cost-of-Living matters, but I think what you said is part of the point of the article.

He smashed an historical building

This immediately made me read your comment in a strong French accent

Wouldn’t want to accidentally grab a white kid in blackface /s

with the exception of two brief situationships I was in cus women suck.

This is part of the problem. You’re blaming an entire gender because you ended up in situationships.

Even if those two women are 100% at fault, you’re not just blaming women, but saying that all women “suck”.

women don’t wanna be talked to for more than small talk

This is part of the problem. Why are you talking “to” women and not “with” them? What do these two different phrases (“talking to” and “talking with”) look like? There’s a huge difference.

Plus getting out is anxiety provoking

This is part of the problem. It’s natural for some people to have anxiety. If you have the means, see if this can be treated by a specialist.

So, I changed my daily driver to linux several months ago and my gf a few weeks ago.

…

So, I changed […] my gf a few weeks ago.

How’s the new girlfriend?

Oh, that’s cool!

Haven’t stayed in touch, but generally seems like unskilled labour. The same kind of job they had in high school, but a decade later.

What are the discovery services?

I get why clickbait exists. As long as I know what the video is actually about from the title/thumbnail, I don’t mind.
