Actually I retract, it’s real: Bohdan Vasylkov, a Ukrainian barber. He has an Instagram page and the images are heavily post processed I suppose.

We’re talking about Jay Graber, the CEO of Bluesky. Tetris11 thought she was a man so I corrected that. Jay Graber is notoriously a woman, which I find important because she’s a woman tech CEO in a pile of white dudes.

You got me there, firefox is the only snap I really use. Probably can be removed and replaced with apt version but honestly I don’t care much. I tend to clean reinstall frequently and I leave as much in the default setup as I can.

If it works, it works. But it does cause me to have another step to update everything, which is slightly annoying. And yes I don’t like Canonical’s insistence on snaps. I just try to avoid them really.

Ads, certainly never seen them.

Great catch. The leftmost tooth in the right image is a dead giveaway, unless he had a strange cleft lip (the left image shows that is not the case).

The image isn’t funny if it isn’t real. But it’s too good and also blurry to be obvious.

Edit: it’s real.

“he’s hot” there ya go

Unpopular opinion: I love Ubuntu. No, I don’t use snaps at all. I have an Nvidia GPU and it’s literally the only OS working out of the box. Yes I tried Debian, I’m too busy to fiddle with drivers. No, I can’t get rid of the GPU, I depend on it for critical workflows. I love the minimalism of Gnome. Never liked KDE/Cinnamon honestly, they’re too busy for my tastes. For 15 years I’ve tried other distros and I’m always back on Ubuntu. I’ll ride the purple penguin to my grave.

Downvotes only please.

“But think of the children!” 😂😂😂

This kind of mature and genuine response is only seen here on Lemmy lol. Anyways I do agree, our celebrities matter and culture is important.

I bow at the girth of your penis, superior-san.

Again just explaining it and not disagreeing. I actually literally asked ChatGPT to come up with a prompt to generate your reply, here is the prompt:

Write a reply that is mildly sarcastic but still informative, starting with “Since it’s beyond you, I’ll take the time to explain.” The reply should explain that different people have different values, describe how some people devote energy to following the intersection of culture and politics, others to online communities, and some to neither. End with a slightly condescending line implying the explanation should now be within their understanding.

Just here to explain the downvotes: “ChatGPT, come up with a response to someone who dislikes celebrities, use a touch of sarcasm and make the tone slightly condescending in a plausibly deniable way. Make it generic enough it could apply to almost any hobby, in order to trivialize their point”.

Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they should that they didn’t stop to think if they could.

It reminds me of a time where things were better. They focused less on shiny, soulless graphics and more on the heart of the game. Our minds filled in more details and it was fine. Games today are much more likely to have glittery graphics and be not fun or even predatory. Then you have indie games, they might not be technically perfect but they’re much more likely to have that heart.

The U.S. general electorate was polled. A minority of 27% agreed with the following statement: “we should eat billionaires”, but a supermajority of 78% agreed with this one: “purchasing organs from third world countries should be legal”.

It has some real “Ukraine should just stop fighting a losing war” vibes. I wonder how much Alphabet paid them for that article. Probably not much.

She*

Jay is a woman.

Uplifting news, remote Venezuelan village raises $5,000 selling their spare organs to help pay for local child’s legal bills.

It’s not just nostalgia. Things were less enshittified in that era. The writing, story telling, world building, and creative direction were far superior and games were weirder. That’s why I like the style anyways
