Leave it to Sony to come up with new and innovative ways to harass customers.

Very popular this time of year.

My city’s public pools close at the beginning of August for some stupid-ass reason.

Yep. When I say “I use Keepass” what I actually mean is “I use KeepassXC, Macpass, KeepassDX, etc. depending on which OS I’m on at the time” and AFAIK none of those are actually made by the original Keepass developer.

No, he shouldn’t have switched to Bitwarden. Why the fuck do people keep recommending cloud shit instead of Keepass?

I don’t know where this weird trope of thinking Keepass is somehow obsolete or inferior came from, because it isn’t.

Suing doesn’t matter; the voting will have been over and the disenfranchisement incurable.

They’re daring us to try and stop them by force, in order to invoke the exception in the law another commenter cited. They want to pretend that us trying to stop their coup makes us the “armed enemies of the United States” instead of them.

This is the consequence of failing to prosecute Trump for Jan 6.

I was thinking more in terms of replying to the comments within threads, rather than the posts themselves. But yeah, I guess you’ve got a point that the number of comments under a post might influence its position in some types of feeds.

FYI, I never disagreed with you on the morality of it to begin with. In fact, that’s why I didn’t address that point: I had no objections to it.

Now, seriously, for the last fucking time, knock it off with your needlessly combative attitude! You’re the only one here acting in bad faith!

I don’t know why you’re so desperate to keep changing the topic, I’m just trying to keep it on what I was originally saying and you’re not so I’m done.

I am sick and tired of your ridiculous false accusations.

Here’s what you actually wrote:

Sweden shouldn’t be allowed to do that, just like Trump shouldn’t be allowed to remove people who’ve been living in the US for 24 years.

I replied to the second half of that, the bullshit comparison between Sweden and Trump. You then posted a series of confused objections to things I didn’t claim while insinuating bad faith on my part, but at no point were we ever talking about the thing you apparently think we were talking about!

Don’t pretend “just like Trump” wasn’t your topic.

Do you just lack reading comprehension skills or something? Why do you keep assuming random shit I didn’t say?

Of fucking course Brexit has something to do with it; it’s why he doesn’t have an automatic right to live in Sweden indefinitely. But that is not the same as being the reason his non-automatic application to stay failed three times. Clear now?

You literally called it a leopards eating faces situation

If he didn’t oppose Brexit.

So wait, is he being kicked out because Britain voted for Brexit or because of something he did? You’re not even keeping your story straight.

What do you mean, “my story?” I’m not The Guardian! They’re the ones claiming he’s being kicked out because of Brexit while leaving out the reasons why Swedish immigration authorities ruled against him three times.

Unless The Guardian left some important details involving masked, armed thugs and concentration camps out of the article, what Sweden is doing is nothing like what Trump is doing.

And speaking of things left out of the article, it doesn’t explain why his “three failed attempts to remain in the country” actually failed. It makes me wonder if there’s a good reason for it that we’re not being told. (And that, by the way, also sounds markedly different from the complete lack of due process currently happening in US immigration “courts.”)

I just watched the LTT video about DLSS 5, and the main thought I had was “never mind making questionable changes to these already very high fidelity games; what would happen if you tried to apply it to some old game, like Morrowind or Half-Life?” (In other words, some game that both (a) actually needs graphics improvements, and (b) runs at so high a framerate that you can afford to cut it in half.)

That may be an explanation, but it isn’t an excuse.

What a load of cope on The Gaurdian’s part, trying to blame this shit on Sweden instead of the UK.

Examples:

The problem centres on the Migration Agency’s apparent refusal to allow late applications from people who were not aware they had to formally apply to remain post-Brexit – a process used in only 12 other EU countries.

Yeah, “only” more than a third of the total, so rare and weird!

But in the post-Brexit scenario in Sweden, deportations of Britons have been ordered even when no crime is involved.

As if Sweden shouldn’t be allowed to do that, even though the UK insisted on being considered separate and foreign.

Part of the problem, he says, stems from the lack of communication to registered British people living in the country, causing missed deadline applications.

He said the Sellers’ case was “yet another example of systemic failings in Sweden’s implementation of the withdrawal agreement”.

Blaming Sweden for British immigrants’ own failures.

Sucks for the individuals involved (which I sure hope voted against Brexit, as that’s the only thing that stops it from being a !leopardsatemyface situation), but the UK is getting exactly what it demanded.

To be clear, I’m writing from a Lemmy/Reddit/Slashdot perspective. Maybe on Mastodon/Twitter (or, dog forbid, Facebook) it’s different, but I wouldn’t know because I’ve never used that shit.

How does a project literally named “.NET” manage to fuck up so bad as to need WINE instead of just Mono?

Emojis are modern-day hieroglyphs.

The point is not to change the troll’s opinion; the point is to discredit them in front of whoever else may be reading the thread.

Also, the other action other than blocking them is reporting them and having a mod or admin remove them for everybody at once.

Both of those are better options than individually blocking.
