I guess the other user appeared transphobic to a lot of people, and OP seems like they’re defending the user for being ignorant and not meaning any harm by it?

I’m not aware of the full story, nor am I being told anyone is a terrible person. I guess it’s an if-you-know-you-know scenario. I don’t think it’s villainising anyone.

This post is humour + commentary. No one was called out.

It makes no sense reversed

The game itself isn’t ripping off anything. Pokémon is such a direct “rip off” of digimon, too, then. Except it doesn’t matter, cause that’s what stuff is. Stuff is made up of other stuff and oftentimes there will be similarities!

Yup. These days porn has to be involved if you want to be successful, or lots of luck.

i use it and wonder what people think when i do. they never seem to react negatively. maybe they’re silently judging me

It’s dan, not real/parody only

I think it’s a bit more than that. I’m not disagreeing, though, I think most people abusing it also have ADHD. I know I wasn’t diagnosed through school and when I found out about stimulants I definitely used them to study.

I mean, clearly they’re using it for a reason right? They wouldn’t be seeking them out if it didn’t do something good for their studying.

Yeah, and it allows them to focus for longer than usual, they don’t have the same calming effects as us, but there are performance benefits at the right dose for anyone (even non adhd folk)

I guess, but aren’t we using it as ‘performance enhancing’ to be on the same level as other people? Like glasses. If someone who didn’t need glasses wore special glasses that helped them see better, would it be cheating? Maybe, actually. I’m not sure lol

How is it cheating?

Dude people are gonna do drugs either way. Whether it’s a dick move or not. It doesn’t matter

wait so you just lose tabs you haven’t opened in X mins?

i have a tab sleeping extension & generally throttle the ram with opera

You definitely know what you’re talking about. I have no idea how federated shit works. As far as I can understand each instance hosts its own content, but connects to other instances and fetches their content too. So, yeah, they’re all different sites, but they’re adhering to one “federation standard” (like an API response format for a post or a list of posts or whatever). How far off am I?

Yeah but Lemmy instances are interconnected to a certain degree. Wordpress instances are not. Key difference…

We were all that kid in a way

I love redbull and I have Gamersupps powder that is basically energy drink in a powder. It’s a good replacement for when I don’t have a redbull handy. Very very similar effect on my body

Content-wise, no. But, if there were two cups, one filled with urine, and one filled with sweat, I wouldn’t want to touch or smell either cup.
