Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that my entire childhood was a LIE! English
121·25 days agoI’m from the universe where everyone has really really big dicks. So imagine my surprise when I get here and find your politicians and global leaders mostly have small dick energy, and they have no balls.
You guys have much better county fair food though. Have you ever had an elephant ear? Don’t worry! No actual elephants were harmed in the making of this food. And it’s much better than fresh cucumber on a stick.

231·29 days agoBoycotting Logitech is easy moving forward; Don’t buy their crap.
You’re like 5 years too late on that for me. I bought a mouse in 2019. And in 2020 the mouse died. Wouldn’t even turn on. Wouldn’t charge. Dead.
I call up logitech, and ask what my options are. Basically my options are “fuck you”. Couldn’t even send it in for repair at all.
Compare this to 2005. I had a mouse in those days I paid $200 for. Which in those days was quite a bit. My then girlfriend broke my mouse. So I called logitech to ask how much it cost to fix. I had the mouse about 2-3 years at that point. So I knew it wasn’t under warrenty, but I figure maybe repair is cheaper than buying a new one.
Guy on the phone says “Nah, I’ll just ship you one”. And I was confused. I asked “Oh. How much is that?” And he says “Don’t even worry about it. Lets just send you a replacement.”
Week later I had a free replacement on my doorstep. Instant recurring customer.
But now? Between deminishing product quality, disappearing customer service, and enshitified policies, I no longer feel like I’m a logictech customer for the past 5 years. This after being a huge cheerleader of theirs since the early 2000s. Maybe late 90s.
These companies do not seem to get that the easiest way to generate consistant revenue is with repeat business. I’m no longer a logitech customer, but I still have a lot of logitech products. Whenever they die, they’ll be replaced with something else.

366·29 days ago9.5 years is ancient in smart home devices.
Note to self. Don’t buy smart devices. 9.5 years is like a sneeze to me. I still have a Nintendo NES from the late 1980s still in working order. I mean, I modded the video out, and replaced the pin connector. But it works.
Was it Batman? I hear he’s blind as Ray Charles.
Well that’s because they don’t like you! You’re not well liked in the spider community. You wouldn’t like it if some astroid fell down and destroyed your home, and took away all your food.
So now spiders don’t invite you to their raves, and Spiderman won’t save you. And he’ll even save J Jonah Jameson. Admittedly begrudgingly so.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL american public support for requiring vaccines against infectious diseases dropped from 81% in 1991 to 51% last yearEnglish

Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•Feminism needs to be renamedEnglish
2·2 months agoOk, how about this…what if we did the patriarchy but different. Instead of being male dominant, it was just no dominance at all? Instead, we’d have marbles. And everybody gets the same amount of marbles. But the marbles don’t mean anything. Even if you took someone elses marbles, you just have 10 marbles instead of 5. But 10 marbles doesn’t do anything differently than 5 marbles. You just have 10 marbles. Same as you would today.
So then, when it comes to things like money, and power, and dominance…no. No money. No power. No influence. No dominance. Just everybody gets 5 marbles.
And instead of calling it the patriarchy, we can call it Flornandia. A word I just made up.
Now, as it pertains to the giant rubber ducks…
