  • Famous story of a son who broke both arms and the mom felt bad he couldn’t masturbate so she started jerking him which led to more…

    It’s very fucked up story. But whenever a similar topic comes up someone has to say “I bet he had broken arms” or something like that.

    Similar one is “shoes came off so he’s definitely dead” whenever some fall or other force throws someone to the ground.

    It was funny at one point… Maybe like 6 years ago. But like jfc there’s no original thought, just echo chamber zingers.

    Oh another one: “I also choose this guy’s dead wife”


  • A lot more comments like reddit that are the quick (very tired) zingers. I was happy to get away from that but I’m sort of thinking of putting lemmy down if it gets worse.

    I don’t need your “this.” Or “broken arms” or “that’s insulting to trash” etc.

    It’s beyond tired. But it gets up voted and can dominate the comments section. I appreciate threads like this one that promote actual discussion.

    Wife spilled some beer in the keyboard. Screen doesn’t turn on, it doesn’t hold a charge, keyboard doesn’t work. But we need sensitive data off the drive.

    Take it to their “genius” bar where we are told there is nothing that can be done for the old data and we should just buy a new one.

    I take it home, Google a bit and try target disk mode. Et Voila I’m in and can get that data from the hard drive as though it was an external HDD.

    Why the Apple “genius” didn’t share this option with me? They don’t actually care about helping.

    And that’s the rub with Apple. They don’t give a fuck about their users or developers. Just want to herd them around to make more money off their overpriced garbage.
