As if twitter wasn’t a net negative for society to begin with.
At least Facebook was decently capable at helping you keep connected with friends and events at the beginning. Twitter was always gargled garbage to begin with.

I’ve come to realise that Americans don’t like sports per say. They like the spectacle. It explains why they prefer American football to football. Four hours of show to one hour of actual sports.
It also explains their attitude to expansion teams. From a European perspective, getting a fanbase to “love” your team within a year of creation is wild. Most newly created teams in football are detested and get labeled as being “purchased” rather than having fans, even if they win. A fandom is something you get from growing up with a team, and you never, ever change the team.
Pay bonus with stocks in the company. Problem solved.
Oh yes, unlike that toddler response i received.
But. Then you would be the 60 year old asshole? Are you thick or did you not think this through?
Perfect comeback there bud. You definitely made me say “shucks” while I snapped my fingers in a dramatic fashion 😘
I don’t know about you, but that sounds miserable. And what makes you think that you will be excluded?
He probably said something reasonable that they disagreed with 😄
Man, you drank some kool aid didn’t you? If someone doesn’t think like you, then they’re an asshole, in spite of an entire life of not being an asshole. Cool cool
Wrong, but you do you.
Was thinking the same thing. It sounds exactly like inclusion due to irrelevant factors.
I might be coming off a bit too ideological, but i dont think race, gender, sexuality should matter in a profession. Therefore i think DEI is inherently unfair.
But i also see how the tactic applies to anybody that sucks at their job, DEI not included.
So exactly what i said?
With nuance, im talking of inflections from speech. Which you can’t get from text.
Again. Insane take by someone that likely is glued to a phone 24/7.
It’s okay to not answer or answer and say, call me later.
They objectively take longer. And honestly, nuance is lost in text. Especially if you rush it and dont use grammar, use abbreviations slang without context.
Text is good when you need to convey things that take a long time to find. In IT that means, ip-addresses, fqdn, configs etc. But if i need a yes or no answer, i wont be sending an email or even a dm. People have shit to do and they might be waiting for me/the response to get back to their own thing.
Sounds like you need practice. How do you talk to people when you’re not on the phone?
Sure, but cold calling someone is still a dick move
Thats an insane take. Especially for anyone that isn’t slave to the notification storm on a phone.
Why would a call necessarily need “an answer”?. If my parents call, it’s because they want to talk like humans do.
If someone calls because they need an answer, perhaps you should answer?
Granted, i’ve noticed that people call for the most basic things nowadays, just cause they can. That’s the real issue, not calls in and of themselves. Its a skill like most other things.
I think the ideology you think of when you say it’s for everyone, is egalitarianism. Feminism can’t be for everyone in the same way that patriarchy can’t mean “womens oppression of men”.
Unless of course, you’re looking to confuse with the terminology.
“Heaven can wait”, but ditched the religious connotation.
I like it. I’m getting pretty sick of the attitude of most lemmyposts, which alligns with the darker coffee. Depressive nihilism is not hot.
No! Death can fucking wait. I’m not done here yet.
