As others have pointed out, this is also a problem with how they are advertising it.

If duct tape was advertised as something that you can use to hold your roof beams together, you’d have a issue with that.

Since you didn’t actually answer the question, I’m going to have to assume that your town is known to be in the shade.

Maniac.

Your TV is missing

Obviously I didn’t mean literally screaming, you just said that you hoped that someone responsible would notice, I only commented that maybe that same effort would be better directed straight into the eyeballs of the people who are doing this.

You are of course free to write your criticism anywhere and in any way you choose.

I was referring to this:

I sometimes take a moment to point out the obvious flaws in pieces such as this one due to a vain hope that someone responsible for reporting on things involving numbers will one day see such complaints and be inspired to do better.

If you are going to complain about it, why not send the complaint to the people who are writing this stuff? You already wrote the comment, copy paste that to the feedback box. That way theres a 1% chance that someone reads it and learns from it. Just writing on Lemmy theres a 0.00001% chance for that.

But like you said, to each their own, I guess. If screaming to the void makes you feel better, go for it.

Whining on Lemmy is about as effective as writing your complaints on a piece of paper and storing them under your bed.

Have you considered sending feedback either to the reporter or the paper that the reporter works for?

Needs to tap phones with a real friend? I guess I’ll never be able to use it then :D

Also, no android app…?

Also, also, it was not the first social media. Irc-galleria (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRC-Galleria) and other were first :)

Luckily it seems to be making Europe and Canada stronger as well. Putin can weaken the US all he wants, but as long as Europe and Canada are not just standing around with their hands in their pockets, doing nothing, it wont benefit russia too much.

People really don’t know when its appropriate to joke around. I guess the [serious] tag thing, that is (was?) in use in /r/askreddit should be thing here as well.

Yeah I didn’t mean to say that its been that bad forever. Its gotten worse in the last 10-15 years. But it started ages ago, back in the ancient times. I remember my 1987 Volkswagen had a buzzer if I had lights on when the ignition was off. That was a good thing to have tbh, especially back then. But now you get a warning bong just because you have a kilogram of apples on the back seat.

Yeah the beeps and bongs are not a new thing. Clarkson raged about it 20+ years ago. “I KNOW THE DOOR IS OPEN THERES A HUGE GAP NEXT TO ME”

What car is that? So that I know never to buy or suggest one

Pretty randomly. I’m very picky about what I listen to, I’m very reluctant to listen to stuff recommended by my friends etc. I mostly stumble upon new stuff. Either I hear a cool song on a tv-show, like Golden Brown by The Stranglers in Clarksons Farm, or a collaboration with a artist that I already listen to, like happened when I found out about Têtes Raides through Yann Tiersen.

But me being weird about how and when I find music is a pretty pointless thing to talk about since I think most people don’t do things the way I do. I’d recommend making a Last.fm account. Not only does it make lists of what you listen to, it has that “similar artists” thing. I use it mostly to have a list of stuff I’ve listened to, because I like lists. My last.fm account is the oldest account I have (now that google doesn’t let me use my gmail anymore lol), I’ve had it since 2005. Its pretty fun to go check what I listened to in February 2007 or something. I can see where my teenage relationship breakups were, based on HIM being the most listened to artist of a month lol

I demand a accurate and tested answer

How much shaving cream can you fit in your mouth?

What a strange question. OP, have you ever met people? Are you a alien?

So… you posted a question to /c/asklemmy and then proceeded to answer it? Are you asking something or just looking to preach?

Thats why I cant use my google accounts anymore. No gmail, no youtube. Because they want my phone number. Fine, I’ll use Freetube and Protonmail. Thats completely fine for me lol.

Requested account deletion but they’re ignoring that mail.

According to the news article here, you need to post pro-LGBTQ stuff and they will delete your account.
