  • The other person (E: whose reply seems to have now vanished?) is correct about why it's different, but it took about a minute to do in paint, whereas finding the blank image and putting in the correct text would have taken much longer lol

  • Certainly a very valid point, and hopefully we're building up to that (bigger money comes with much tighter security), but I do think the people so directly sacrificing people's lives for profit shouldn't be overlooked.

  • Oh yeah, shit 😂

    The movie was on in the background (which is why I looked the meme up) and winding up, so Morticia and Gomez were talking to each other, and my brain must have scrambled. I'll fix that.

  • I’m from (Scotland) but I would read about insurance and employer healthcare and be really confused, since up here everything (prescriptions, glasses, teeth) is free and there’s no insurance.

    I'm in England, and I know there is a difference, but I highly doubt private insurers haven't made it up your way, and are slowly carving the NHS hollow from within just like they are down here (a very superficial look confirms that hundreds of millions are already being spent on private firms carrying out NHS Scotland work).

    People get denied NHS treatment all the time, if not directly (and yes, some directly, like trans people, but also disabled people with long term and complex cases, which I know from personal experience), then via cuts and waiting times.

    Sure, we have it better than the yanks, and you up north have it better than us down south, but please lets not pretend our NHS is in good shape (or hands, Starmer has made it clear that he is for more privatisation), providing prompt and accessible healthcare, or not going the exact same way the US healthcare system is (often being bought up by the very same companies).

    The last thing we need is to be getting complacent.

  • Oh, that really sucks. Is it something the devs might be implementing at some point, or does no one else generally mind?

    This way you can technically still go there if you need to look but zap just the number.

    If I zap with ublock, I assume the icon will be gone? In that case how do I check notifications if I do want to?

    Also, would there be any way to diferenciate notifications from replies vs DMs? Because I'd still like to be able to see one (DMs), but could go my entire life without getting another of the other.

  • Sorry, but it’s just upsetting when someone takes what you say out of proportion to fit their own point of view or whatever

    Literally just asking you to clarify, and get you to think critically about why you phrase things the way you did.

    If you don't want either to happen, try doing them yourself first.

    Edit to add: As for the actual point: all capitalism is bad, by only framing late stage capitalism as a problem (which is what you do when you take the time to come back and diferenciate it in a comment about capitalism being bad), you make it seem as if "regular" capitalism is fine, and that all we need to do is roll back to those good old days before it started impacting you.

    You had it right the first time, and yet you took the time to come back and "correct" yourself, so you obviously thought it was an important enough distinction to make, when all it does it normalise "regular" capitalism, which is entirely self defeating, and why I've even bothered trying to get you to think critically about your comment instead of just disregarding you as a capitalism bootlicker.

    Don't want to think critically? That's your choice. But at least take responsability for your own words.
