What was the best "worst. movie. ever"?
  • Tiptoes

    Samurai Cop

  • Meta won’t say what happened to taxpayer data it may have illegally collected
  • Oh well ain't that a surprise. Boycott Meta products.

  • (Linux users !) What was the first Linux distro that you used ?
  • Arch. Went in at the deep end.

    Suffice to say that I no longer use Linux. Got it built with relative ease though inevitably hit issues along the way, but got tired of having to use terminal for everything. Would not recommend Arch as your first distro unless you already love existing in a terminal.

  • Kbin: What is your favourite (or least favourite) horror film?
  • REC (Spanish) is probably the most successful horror that actually has me on edge most of the film.

  • Threads attracts 30M users in 24 hours despite design flaws, privacy concerns | Ars Technica
  • That Meta swooped in right when Twitter were at their lowest point? I feel like this isn't very surprising. I also think that this isn't actually going to be the revolutionary platform some people are making out it will be.

  • How do you personally feel about anonymity in the Fediverse?
  • And is this not also just the case across the clearnet in general? I keep seeing posts about the fediverse and anonymity and I'm wondering what gave people the impression it was necessarily any better in this regard than the internet they're already used to.

  • TikTok video showing DoorDash driver cursing at customer over 25% tip sparks online debate over tipping culture in the U.S.
  • A business' way of having the customer pick up the bill for them not paying their staff properly. Really unfortunate that this has become so socially expected.

  • Never thought I would get emotional about losing an app
  • I felt this, but as the end of the month drew nearer and I adjusted to the idea of losing Reddit more, it has actually felt like a really cathartic process for me. Using PowerDeleteSuite on my profile, creating a new one here, searching for new communities within it. I honestly think this change will be a net positive for me personally. Reddit was absolutely swamped in noise and low quality content, it had been for years. A communal shift into a new world, that holds different values at the forefront, and by default (smaller, federated communities) content quality should improve. It reminds me a little of the old message board days.

    I'm just waiting on a kbin app that goes at least some way to being as good an experience as Apollo was, as I'm mostly a mobile user.

  • Never thought I would get emotional about losing an app
  • Depends how you define 'worthless'. In the case of Apollo, it certainly wasn't financially worthless for him. And just to be clear, I have no issue with a quality app developer making money doing what they do.
