TSG_Asmodeus (he, him)

Man, can you even still download that? Man, it’s the only programme I can think of that I never had an issue with. Even the default skin is so usable.

I still use, Jesus, version 5 or something. Nothing has managed to be as handy as old winamp.

Sorry, to be clear I got it for 275 CDN, which is roughly 200 USD.

But when it comes to the headrests I cannot find anything for under roughly that price. :/

The last time I found one it was 200 USD (which is basically what I paid for the entire chair).

I just want to say, I’m in my 40’s and most of my friends are late 30’s/early 40’s, and those chairs are starting to cause some of them some serious issues. If they’re the ones that have the ‘racing car’ style seats, where the left and right are forward of the back, that design is to combat G-forces while driving. When you’re stationary though, they can cause your shoulders to bend forward. Over a year or so, no big deal. Over 5-10, it starts to cause issues.

I highly recommend the Steelcase Leap (v2, is what I have).

However, you may need the headrest, and they are extremely expensive/hard to find, just a warning.

I got my Steelcase from a place that resold them, so it was like 275 Canadian. Still, a great chair.

Sorry, which states are you referring to? I don’t have local knowledge of that place.

That are ignorant people out who’ve been fed some bullshit by society about what the gay community is and isn’t.

They aren’t hateful and would in fact be friends and allies but your approach of “there is no ignorance without hate therefore I’m justified in being a dick!”

So are they hateful of gay people because of ‘some bullshit by society’ or are they not hateful?

Its your fault for acting like a dick to people who are ignorant.

This is called Victim Blaming (the caps are for the concept, not the literal pairing of words) because it implies it’s the role of every minority to convince people not to oppress them, and not on the individual to not be a bigot. To see why this is the issue it is, replace ‘being gay’ with ‘being raped’ - is it, say, a woman’s ‘job’ to convince men not to rape them, or is it on men to know not to rape people?

doesn’t exactly fit the hypothetical I described of a person who’s just afraid of the concept without harboring any hateful feelings or displaying any discriminatory behaviors toward it.

I can’t think of a single example of this in reality. Phobia isn’t ‘just afraid’ in the context you’re using, it’s an irrational terror. People who are arachnophobic aren’t ‘just afraid’ they’re terrified of spiders. That is due to an inherent part of our past (as humans) that taught us spiders/snakes/etc were a danger and to avoid them, and for these people their brain changes ‘I should avoid that danger’ to ‘I should do literally anything to get away from that danger.’

There’s no precedent for ‘people of the same gender who love each other’ being a source of terror. Nothing in our collective past would cause that.

Sure, you miss it now.

For anyone panicking, this is exactly like what happened with the transition from ICQ to AOL messenger, from MySpace to Facebook, from 9gag/etc to Reddit, and so on.

Website makes a mistake, some people leave. Makes another, more leave. Each time this happens, more ‘main’ people of said website leave. Hell, I already saw PoppinKREAM here, so that’s a great start.

So this is exactly how it always goes. The fact it is still here means it’s staying. Look at Threads, or Metaverse, whatever those things are. All dying or dead, barely lasted. Lemmy is still here, people are still posting, so just keep doing what you’re doing. It’s already working.

I just noticed that there are quite a few users on Reddit from r/WorldNews who are defending Israel unequivocally

They’re here too, and one of them is a mod of quite a few communities.
