Memes only matter if you’re 14, unfortunately. Based on the number of comments and users, I’d say lemmyworld is the default.

darcy@discuss.tchncs.deto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: Using oils that are not optimised for sun bathing/intercourse is putting you at riskEnglish20·2 years agoUsing olive oil for sunbathing sounds like some sort of slow oven roast recipe.
darcy@discuss.tchncs.deto Technology@lemmy.ml•Threads Usage Drops By Half From Initial SurgeEnglish1·2 years agoThe next month or so will be the true test. Monthly stats up till now look good, but that’s because there was an active push factor (most of the reddit exodus happened in the last month). There will probably be a slow decline over the next month as people who signed up lose interest. The steepness of the decline will determine lemmy’s future.
darcy@discuss.tchncs.deto Technology@lemmy.ml•Threads Usage Drops By Half From Initial Surge2·2 years agoWell, Threads is at least aiming to do that and integrate with Mastodon, but the group mind has decided that this is bad.
I’m not part of that group mind, but I’m cynical that they will federate. From a business standpoint it doesn’t benefit them, so I’m betting it’s just a buzzword they’re using.
“No, where do you live?!”
“On the Internet.”

darcy@discuss.tchncs.deto Malicious Compliance@lemmy.world•The EU forced Apple to allow users to replace their own batteries, Apple did so by making the process as troublesome for users as possible.English61·2 years agoApple’s philosophy has always been to make things as easy as possible for users, but only if the users agree to pay through the nose. That’s fine, but they also actively stop anyone from trying to do anything outside the limited number of actions they consider acceptable. It’s a good thing the EU is trying to stop that.
darcy@discuss.tchncs.deto Malicious Compliance@lemmy.world•Residential rules: Balcony cat nets are not allowed, however trellises on balcony are? [Semi-long]English4·2 years agoGood for you. Some of these board members are retirees who try and get a sense of power from policing rules unnecessarily. I hope I have better things to do with my time when I get old.

darcy@discuss.tchncs.deto Malicious Compliance@lemmy.world•Follow the expense policy to the letter, he said.English2·2 years ago“If yor employees are trying to help you, let them.” Sounds like common sense, but it seems like MBAs aren’t being taught common sense…

OK, I'll just stand outside the classroom.English0·2 years agoWhy would a teacher ban students from going to the bathroom? That’s a normal bodily function. What do they expect the kid to do?
