Rothe@piefed.socialto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•I've been alive for the entire narrative of the internet and it's crazy to think any of the newer generations will be able to sort it all out for themselves.English4·14 days agoThey will learn its history as well as they will learn all other kinds of history. Which means some of them will be really proficient, but most will only know a smidgen of truths and half-truths, because most people don’t really care about history.
Rothe@piefed.socialto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that only by being yourself will you find people who like the real you. No one can beat you at being you, but you’ll only ever be second best at pretending to be someone else.English1·14 days agoIt’s mostly just a pointless platitude.
Rothe@piefed.socialto Technology@lemmy.zip•YouTube will restore channels banned for COVID and election misinformationEnglish2·20 days agoTo create more brainwashed morons who will simp for their oligarch overlords.
Downvotes are only blocked on that instance to user accounts created from it. Accounts from other instances can still see the downvotes (and vote).
Rothe@piefed.socialto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•There are no laws! We made the whole thing up!English2·24 days agoSo why do you need an external creator to believe in them?
Rothe@piefed.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•Mods react as Reddit kicks some of them out again: “This will break the site”English21·27 days agoNo, piefed is just another front-end to the fediverse.
That is a disingenous excuse. Most xkcd comics are pretty universally relatable. In fact it is known mostly for its almost complete absence of US centrism.
Noone would have written like that. That is a printing typeface. Handwritten fraktur is very different. Anyway the writing in OPs picture is medieval, while the printing typeface is obviously early modern, 17th-19th cenutry.
Rothe@piefed.socialto Memes@lemmy.ml•These animals are poisoning the blood of our discourseEnglish11·1 month agoThat is not a thing that has ever happened. Conservatives are completely fine with dehumanising their enemies and criticise toxic discourse at the same time. Contradiction is baked into the ideology, and they thrive on it, because there is one set of rules for the in-group and another for the out-group.
That is what I am planning on doing as well. I am not going to install their ad-, bloat- and surveillance-ware.
Rothe@piefed.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Hypothetical-- you can only choose two cuisines to eat for the rest of your life. What might they be?English31·1 month agoIt seems to be a belief many Americans have, but usually they are mainly familiar with American Italian cuisine, which is quite different from mist actual Italian cuisine.
Very few Jews came from Germany to Israel, because most German Jews had been murdered by the nazis. By far the most came from Eastern Europe, especially Russia, Ukraine and Poland.
Still an unusually high number of villages for one county.

Rothe@piefed.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•Kick faces possible $49 M fine after French streamer Jean Pormanove dies on airEnglish2·2 months agoI see. It is google translate though (the translation duckduckgo provided was even more horrendous).
Rothe@piefed.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•Kick faces possible $49 M fine after French streamer Jean Pormanove dies on airEnglish351·2 months ago“Salut maman, Comment tu vas ? Coincé pour un moment avec son jeu de mort, avait-il déclaré. Ça va trop loin. J’ai l’impression d’être séquestré avec leur concept de merde. J’en ai marre, je veux me barrer, l’autre il veut pas, il me séquestre”. (“Hey Mom, how are you? Stuck for a while with his death game,” he said. “This is going too far. I feel like I’m being held captive with their shitty concept. I’m fed up, I want to get out, the other guy doesn’t want me, he’s holding me captive.”)
I think it is quite entertaining. The part I get no joy from is how his fascist followers still clings to every word he says despite himn being clearly completely unhinged.
Hopefully this kills him. The world will be a better place for it.
