You lose so much in world building and character building with these seasons that are barely longer than a movie. I've had someone tell me that any season longer than 8 episodes is just padded with filler episodes and I felt so sorry for them. I don't think they've ever seen a high quality long form show and it's really sad.

With modern miniseries length seasons, you never get those slice of life episodes or interesting side stories or anything at all that doesn't serve to advance whatever the major story arc of the season is.

Pretty sure that's the plot of a movie from a few years ago.

The dollar sign comes before the number. Putting it behind the number is just another effect of micro plastics. 😢

I'm not sure someone that can't form simple sentences correctly should be using software as powerful as you attempt to describe.

Username checks out.

I really hate people who censor naughty words like bitch and fucking in screenshots. If you're too scared to see the word written, maybe just don't share the thing at all.

Some company made one once, back in the early 2010s. I think they released a successor the following year, but neither phone sold well enough to keep going. It would be cool as hell if that were more common, though.

If NASA goes with Boeing for the rocket, they can expect the rocket to disassemble itself halfway into the atmosphere.

It's a reference to this:

Larson is taking the phrase out of its normal context and riffing on it in an absurdist way for laughs.

I hate when 10 year olds on Tumblr talk like they know shit. They don't. They're 10 and are as dumb as your typical 10 year old. You wanna know about antioxidants and whether or not they're all that? Here:

Spoiler alert; antioxidants aren't recommended because we breathe oxygen and are setting ourselves on fire. 🙄 You'll also note that various alleged benefits require more research and study to confirm, as current information is inclusive.

Feels like Epic should shoulder some of the blame here as well, considering they allowed the fossil fuel company in the game at all. Fuck both of these companies.

You're absolutely 100% wrong about this. That's not how DDG's app tracking protection works. I've tried almost every available Lemmy app on the Play Store and only Sync triggers DDG. Links are handled by the system's browser, either in an in-app window or a full browser window. They do not trigger DDG because they are not trackers in apps. DDG's app tracking protection works to protect you from trackers in your... Wait for it... Apps. Not websites. If website trackers caused DDG to trigger, then Chrome/Firefox/your preferred browser would be at the top of that list any time you browsed for even a moment, because most websites have embedded trackers.

That said, Sync has been the most polished and smooth app I've used, so I've been running it, but I'm hopeful that when Boost launches, it won't have the same approach Sync does with tracking.
