It’s frustrating that these trolls keep contributing to the big lie that “Lemmy is not ready yet” and that there’s “no viable alternative to Reddit”.
That’s not frustrating at all! That’s GOOD! It’s proof they see Lemmy as a threat, and right now, it is!
It’s simply, many independently controlled things, that can interact with each other like they’re centralized. But there’s not one person with their finger on all of it like FB.
So you’re looking forward to being part of the problem, just what the internet needs more of. Awesome.
Typically over the years it’s Android apps I regularly use that are written well that are a benefit to my day to day life. I’ll typically throw a little money at least once a year. I’ve thrown AntennaPod money a couple times in a year because I live on that thing, that app is completely indistinguishable from any mainstream app, looks great, it’s feature rich and I feel is better than half the proprietary apps out there.
Extremely! Same dude I just agreed with on a reply called me a cunt (didn’t elaborate why) right below it. It’s the agree with me 100% on everything or it’s full on attack. Yet accuse wolfballs of being intolerant bigots. Good ol’ pot calling the kettle black!
That’s what a troll does! Their purpose of existence is to be an ignorant douchebag.
Run well? You ever been there?
On the Ronald McDonald thing… who cares? Why are you that hypersensitive? Welcome to free speech. On the “Illegals” thing, that was referring to people from other instances coming on and down voting the crap out of things which was made pretty clear… so?
On the Dr Oz thing, I disagree. Somebody isn’t a RINO because they’re on the right and say they have compassion for trans athletes, but MANY now regardless of what side of the fence you’re on have a cult like belief that you either subscribe to 100% of an (assumed) political ideology or you’re canceled. But again, moron or not, free speech.
I have compassion for trans athletes, and trans people in general, I can’t even imagine what it must feel like to think you’re in the wrong gendered body for what your brain is telling you that you are, but I’m also not going to pretend that especially in the case of a professional athlete that a biological man doesn’t have a huge unfair advantage over a biological female. Changing your name and clothing, and even taking a bunch of hormones doesn’t remove that advantage. That simply can’t be ignored. This is only a thing because it’s been politically charged. If an athlete tests postive for PEDs they’re kicked out on their ass and labeled a cheater. But when they biologically have more muscle mass, more bone mass and all around more power it’s ignored you’re cancelled and labeled a “bigot”. Sorry, that’s bullshit. That’s simply ignoring the biological differences between men and women, if there wasn’t a diffeerence as some people living in a dream world actually claim, then why do trans people have to load up or hormones, hormone blockers, be prescribe other anabolics etc?
I’m for everybody living their life the way they want, but that doesn’t include disconnecting from reality to do it.
Hopefully you don’t ban people on your own thing for asking for something to be Pirated based on political beliefs.
Difference of opinion… Blocklist. That fits.
Google has always maintained what they do, and we know their an advertising company. They’ve always told everybody what they’re doing (in million word TOSs that’s only a lawyer can read) but they told you. Terrible for privacy… But they told you.
Apple started scanning photos and messages and used the excuse that the whole planet must be pedophiles. That has a way of pissing people off way more! Gote me off iPhone and back on a DeGoogled Android!
Track what you eat and drop the carbs down. BMI is completely useless, my bodyfat is around 10% and my BMI says I’m Obese.
I’d get over the gym shyness, gyms are great, everybody regardless of level they’re at is all working to better themselves, with many different goals. Don’t get brainwashed by Planet Fitness commercials. If your dumbbells are a full set, you can do a lot, but motivation is very difficult to have and sustain long term working out at home. Gaining muscle should also be a goal, muscle drives your metabolic rate, the less muscle mass the lower your TDEE, meaning easier to gain weight as well as just not being as metabolically healthy. Having a good amount of muscle and bulking are worlds apart.
Grab the Cronometer app or use the website and tracking is about as easy as it gets, doing it blind is impossible. Failing to plan is planning to fail.
Good Luck!
Easy, because it lets me run GrapheneOS, not into my phone being a house arrest anklet, nor it being my personal data miner.
