Maybe next year.

But the top grossing movie for 2023 is an original movie, and that’s pretty impressive.

Now, if I could only remember what it’s called…

Well, there is this time a few months ago where the Chinese government hacked AT&T and Verizon using the mandatory backdoors the US government left for wiretaps…

That’s the reason leaving backdoors is generally a really, really bad idea, because you don’t know who else can use them

If you’re wondering how a browser extension got so much money to pay all these YouTubers for sponsorship, well, they’re not. They are literally stealing the money they paid the YouTubers right back from them by replacing their affiliate code with their own.

For people looking for replacements, Edge’s integratedauto coupon code works well enough. RetailMeNot does the same job and has also been around for a long time.

Contrary to popular belief, I do have to do work for a living and can’t spend all day on social media.

Not acting skill, that’s for sure.

That looks like a badly AI generated image of Steven Seagal that Steven Seagal would use as his profile picture on social media as a bit.

If he isn’t so full of himself.

Yay

I know, it’s like Hollywood will make a movie out of literally anything nowadays. It’s a Pop-Tarts movie today, but what’s next? A movie based on Monopoly? The Sims? Barbies (now available on Blu-ray and select streaming services)?

I mean, can you imagine?

Also, appreciate the sentiment from the picture, but still annoyed people can’t get my name right.

At least it’s not “Margo with a T” this time.

It’s just weird people here expected me to joke about this.

You do realize that the strike’s been over for a few months and I have work I need to get done now, right?

Sigh.

Still “Esteemed Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie” for now.

Take your shoes off. Wear indoor slippers indoors.

Don’t eat or drink anything (besides water) in carpeted areas (especially drinks with bright colored dye in them…)

If you have the opportunity, rip out the carpet and replace them with hardwood floor, because having carpet is a giant headache.

Eh. Credit is credit, I’ll take it.

It’s fine. I like that it’s normal for people to post multi-paragraph comments in response to a post. Gives me plenty of material to read when I’m bored, and this place. Is still small enough that you recognize people in different threads. It’s cozy, but some communities could use improvements.

Also, the other things I’ve noticed is that many of the people complaining about Lemmy being toxic are some of the most argumentative ones themselves,if you don’t believe me, you can go to their user page and more often than not find examples of them being rude or unpleasant on the first page.

Misery loves company, after all.

Speaking of which, when I used to live around NY/NJ, every single random pizzarias or Italian places in general I’ve been there has been absolutely amazingly good. Maybe there is too much competition for Pizza Hut there.

Didn’t Pizza Hut use to be a high quality sit-down restaurant that didn’t even do delivery and had a big salad bar? At least, that’s how I remembered it, because I don’t think I’ve thought about Pizza Hut in years.

Also, it is worth noting that these are companies that franchises Pizza Hut, not Pizza Hut owner Yum Brands. This is more of a case of companies being horrible in general instead of a large company being horrible.

The 20 dollar minimum wage is however well deserved, and probably should be higher considering the cost of living here in California.

Your first statement is completely wrong.

PLOS Biology, the journal this article is published in, is founded in 2003, so hardly a new journal, and has an impact factor of ~9, which means that it IS a prestigious journal.

what are your hopes for James Gunn’s DC Universe?

1. Harley needs to be louder, angrier, and have access to a time machine.
2. Whenever Harley is not on screen, all the other characters should be asking, “Where’s Harley?”
