Triggered? It didn’t trigger me. It made me feel the need to announce my pity for you.

You’re the new Lemmy user from Reddit literally spreading poison on your armpits then acting like a walking billboard for companies that are poisoning you and ripping you off.

Found the suburban white person; these late stage capitalists are so completely brainwashed into the capitalist death cult that they have a deep, all-encompassing longing to define their individuality by loudly announcing what products they endorse and giving a shit about what products complete strangers use.

It’s best not to answer the question because they are just waiting for someone to mention a product that they don’t endorse so they can debate them endlessly about that choice and how it goes against their carefully-curated brand identity.

Elaborate, please.

Me too!

I think we all know at this point what happened to Gus. To summarize, Gus Johnson was at one point like the golden boy of YouTube, as a comedian who made short form skits which often would break into tens of millions of views per video. If you weren’t there for his prime, it was insane. Him and his best friend Eddy Burback, who moved from Chicago specifically to live with him, and their podcast, were also defining periods of the commentary craze of the late 2010s.

In August/September 2021, Gus Johnson broke up with his girlfriend Abelina Sabrina, with both sides stating on twitter that it was mutual. In October 2021 however, shortly after the breakup, Sabrina made a video on her channel alleging emotional abuse from an ex boyfriend years prior who had taken advantage of a near fatal ectopic pregnancy she had underwent to manipulate her. These included tidbits such as the ex arguing with doctors and medical professionals to not provide her medical service, forcing her to get an abortion in the earlier stages even though she had wanted to keep the baby, and probably most famously and disgustingly, going to drink and get wasted at a bar with friends while Sabrina had a life threatening medical operation to remove the fetus. Right after the videos release, many speculated on the identity of the aforementioned ex-boyfriend, universally settling on Gus Johnson. While initially ignored by Sabrina, she would end up liking tweets accusing him, and eventually came out and confirmed that Gus was the boyfriend. As a result, Eddy Burback publicly distanced himself from Gus, and the podcast was cancelled. Gus would release an apology video that was widely panned, and then go into hiding for a few months, before resurfacing in his first public appearance of 2022 on the stream of the controversial PaymoneyWubby. In contrast, Gus was much more defensive, retracting his apology and sharing his side of the story. While this was initially seen as controversial, spawning from a video response from Nickisnotgreen, the whole dispute eventually died down. Now, Gus is really struggling popularity wise, with constant viewer decline, and a polarizing image that he has not escaped from.

So, what has happened since the PaymoneyWubby stream? It’s so bizarre that a figure of Gus’ size (4 million subscribers at his prime), who had such a meteoric downfall, just got forgotten about like that. In contrast, his former collaborator Eddy Burback has garnered pretty impressive popularity after leaving the podcast. I remember when he had like twenty thousand subscribers. I just have not heard about Gus in a hot minute. That was the most painful online controversy I can remember. “Boys support boys” was always a very wholesome brand he created, and it seemed like his actions had just betrayed everything he stood for.

I posted the wrong vid. I stopped watching him because

• he’s an out of touch old dude
• he is an absuive Dad, forcing his kid to play an instrument that he isn’t interested in.

So share a link. You’re here on the fediverse. We like open source software and Rust!

Then link it or

shut the fuck up.

Open source it or shut the fuck up.

It’s cool and all. But a completely new art form? I think you’re overselling it…then again, if it’s a marketing tactic, it’s a solid one.

It deserves it. That software works SO poorly right now. I went to edit a post I made and it crashed the app. Figuring that was a fluke, I tried again and it crashed the whole app every single time without fail.

Another time, I tried to post a video that was cropped to Loops and IT LOST MY ACCOUNT PERMANENTLY and won’t let me use that username anymore. Guess I don’t need a Loops account anymore? 🤷‍♂️. Tech support was nonexistent so I just wait until hopefully the dev gets his head out of his ass long enough to fix his buggy, shit software that makes the rest of the fediverse seem like dumbasses.

The best part: the sole dev of both of these apps doesn’t think he needs any help and refuses to open source them. The Kobe Bryant quintessential ball hog of software engineering.

People are so sexist!

Don’t they know that an Asian woman was the director of the project? Looking at the standard thought-process from the big studios nowadays, that alone should have brought the project success.

Oh sick. What’s it written in?

As others have mentioned, this movie looked like

dogshit.

This is what happens when you give an inexperienced, low-budget DoP a 100 million project because of little more than gender.

More like, “Tim, this was a good idea. JavaScript web apps are incredibly unsafe.”

It figures that a dev who uses JavaScript would want PWA’s protected. IMO, the most significant con to losing web apps is that apps need to go through apple for approval. Otherwise, it’s just wise to protect your users from unknown code execution.

Ps. Even if I did support this (I don’t) online petitions are merely a “please add my email address to many spam lists” petition that falls on deaf ears 100% of the time.

Nix/NixOS with flakes, direnv, and lorri.

I’m baffled by this photo. It is objectively below average and yet it’s being shared here like it’s some brilliant work of photographic genius.

• horizon doesn’t match the cropping and doesn’t do anything interesting that would make it seem intentional.

• random roofs of tents are creeping into frame and again, they don’t seem intentional

• underexposed and muddy

• it’s shot at sunset but we don’t even get the hint of extreme contrast that sunset offers. Did you shoot a jpeg in a situation that would have been far better with raw and post-processing? It certain seems like it by the look of the blown out street lights.

I honestly could take a better photo by just waving a camera around and taking massive amounts of photos then selecting one.

More accurately, they’re Kotlin which is Java.

Java, huh? Is that an inherited tech stack or was that by choice?

They both suck.
