I think OP is the grandma in this scenario and just hit puberty in real life.

Finally a reason to upgrade from my C64!

Your honour, I asked her if she wanted to have it and she said no. I wasn’t sure what that meant so I asked again. And to make things clearer I told her that “yes” and “maybe later” where the only options. She still didn’t say yes, but after some time I decided that “later” had come. So I Azure you, I did nothing wrong.

So that’s what you meant when I asked you to do the dishes.

Since you got time, take a single minute and focus only on your breath, for like 10 breaths.

Makes it easier to doom scroll without identifying yourself with that feeling of doom. Also it makes me feel gratitude. Don’t know why, but I’ll take it.

I think you’re correct. In South Korea at least 22 people died. The article you linked doesn’t mention any casualties (or I didn’t notice them).

I mean, technically, I guess (insert Futurama technical correct meme), but with that defintion everything is a puzzle.

I just breathed in, what do I do next? I can’t inhale more air. I have to think fast! Maybe if I breath out, I can then breath in again… It worked! Amazing!

Wow, so the “x” on screen means I have to press the “x” on my controler while it’s highlighted!?

Damn, thanks for spoiling that puzzle!

I don’t think being on Lemmy counts as reading and writing. hehe

I would be so happy if there was a Linux version!

Thanks dog!

We need that template! 👷

The other guy never stood a chance! That’s the power of the F.O.R.K.L.I.F.T. system:

Forklift
Observe
Rule the situation
Knockout your competition
Lift her into your arms
Initiate eye contact
Fuck
Target your next cargo

We can do it, we can create our own Internet, I mean Lemmy, without pitchforks and torches! At least until Lemmy gets relevant. Well, as “relevant” as reddit used to be.

Basically I see two options:

1. This works for advertisers and based on your “profile” you are strongly influenced by the ads shown to you. So might just as well give your data to Meta and Google, who already sell profiled (and not individualised) ads.

2. This doesn’t work for advertisers and you are not strongly influence by the ads shown to you. So the advertisers could just as well put a link somewhere and hope it is found by their target audience.

Also I don’t my browser, my OS or any other core component on my system to be in bed with people who are trying to extract as much money as possible from me.

There are radio stations, financed through ads. And they check if people are listening by calling random persons to ask them what station they are listening to.

So this is a viable business model and nobody is stopping anybody from putting plain pictures and links on sites and just estimate the page visits, but online advertisers want to know more. They always want more.

At the same time, a browser is the essential software to browse the web. So this is as if your TV was like:

Yo, many people mute their TV during commercials and don’t pay attention, which kills the poor networks. So I made a deal with advertisers and will check what your doing, while I provide unmutable ads , but don’t worry, your privacy is very important to us and we only care about providing to you the best TV experience possible.

I… I think the mind trick is working on me. Which would imply that this actually is what I was looking for…

Which means not I, but Obi Wan was the degenerate pervert the whole time!

And as an unstoppable force of nature and chaos… you order some stuff online and get food delivered.

Behold! Our mundane god of meaningless is looking for ways to fill the void inside!
