I need to try this!

Wikipedia articles and science news articles. I keep rotating through them to clean up my browser, but each article has more links I wanna read. I need to take a day and just read them all already! lol

Quit pretending there’s a “bot army” downvoting you

@jet@hackertalks.com is the one who started the investigation of the downvoting bots, and listed the details at https://hackertalks.com/post/8713785

Thanks! Turns out there may have been a bit more to it than that. I made someone mad so they started a bot army to downvote all my posts. lol

Another poster discovered it when they looked into why I was getting downvotes regardless of what/where I was posting. They wrote about their discovery of the bot army here: https://hackertalks.com/post/8713785

Good point! A bit of a a bait-y headline.

Oh and I just used that joke on my gf, and took all the credit. She rolled her eyes, then laughed. So just know that someone else laughed, but I took the clever credits. :)

Ok, I laughed at that. You win the interwebs, guy!

Have my upvote! LMAO

I truly wish there were more here with your outlook. Seems like so many here lately have been doomscrolling and just wanna lash out and base their entire identity on politics.

I still like it here better than Reddit, but ugh, hopefully Lemmy can stop being so hateful. I am on both Reddit and Lemmy, and Reddit doesn’t seem to be as personal about it’s hate and insults like Lemmy is sometimes.

But yeah, in the end, we’re all gonna make it, brother. Some people just need to go outside more to realize it. lol

P. S. I think that there’s a wide continuum of posters. It’s not all one guy with one ideology and 100,000 accounts.

Of course, I’m just being a bit dramatic to make my point, because you have to admit that Lemmy DOES skew one way heavily. The vast vast majority of Lemmy leans left.

So far. More and more people are coming on every day. So it may even out.

But even regarding our growth, I see lots of posts saying that people should be banned if they are conservative.

And yeah, my crypto worked out awesome last time, and will this time. But I don’t invest a lot in either crypto or stocks.

I only invest what I can afford to lose. Which is why I never panic when market dips happen.

My use of the “Mulch the rich crowd” as people who will, at least (or perhaps at most) express the desire to grind up billionaires, or maybe millionaires into more useful biomass, such as mulch for their vegetable garden or community allotment.

Seems to be happening today! How come no celebration? I remember seeing Lemmy posts where people wanted to see wall street burn to the ground! Then it’d get hundreds of upvotes. What happened? Where’s that crowd?! lol

Here’s the real reason, IMHO: Because for all of the anti-wall street talk, and the anti-wealth talk, the fact is that Lemmy users on average make more than most americans. So when shit like what’s happening happens, it actually affects them. The very fact that there are so many Lemmy’s worried about their stocks shows that they are the part of the very crowd the like to see destroyed. It was all for upvotes.

Reality hits different.

Now as much as I would love to see this continue to happen. And Lemmy actually be as poor in reality as they pretend to be, I know the market dip won’t last. No millionares are gonna lose their status. All the crying Lemmys who are making $100K a year will be just fine, and they’ll continue acting like they make $15K a year and then watch their stocks rise in between fake justice warrior postings.

So yeah, I am fucking loving the news. Loving what is happening. And I think people are getting exactly what they deserve.

Also, I’m already poor. The wall street news hasn’t changed my life at all. No one tiny bit. Except that my little extra fun money is now being used on buying stock and crypto cuz it’s all cheap! lmao

My day was awesome. Went for a walk this morning before a light drizzle rain. Went to the movies with my gf. Then we fixed dinner and watched another movie. Took her home and now studying some programming stuff.

Mine are going awesome. I decided I would retire this year. Did it. I decided I would become super fit. Did it. Decided I’d get lean enough for a six-pack. Did it.

Decided I would learn programing; doing it. It’s been a great year so far!

Yeah, until the end when some multiverse thing happens and they are brought into the current Marvel uni. lol

But I love the retrofuture look and feel to this movie. And I loved FF when I was growing up.

Most of Lemmy and Reddit. LMAO

Great points!

I saw that movie! A Cronenberg movie. I usually like his movies, but that one wasn’t very good.

That has nothing to do with anything I said though.
