I was really into skiing when I was younger, and would go every weekend with my buddy and his dad. I tried to outrun them, fell, and tumbled. My shoulder was very badly sprained, and I couldn't use it for like a month. Now from time to time it flares up again, and the pain comes back for a few hours. The shoulder is also much easier to sprain now, every time I fall it's out of commission for weeks. I went to my doctor, who told me that nothing is broken and there's nothing he can do about it.

Why did you editorialize the headline from "atrocities" to "resistance"?

I only use the play store to keep critical apps (banking and security) updated. Everything else comes from Aurora.

I could be so much more efficient on a computer. One hand for the mouse, two hands in the standard typing position, and one hand on an external numpad. It would eliminate the need to ever move my hands. I want 4 hands now :(.

I chose lemmy.ca because I'm a proud Canadian patriot 💪🇨🇦🫡

I think that's already a feature. If I press and hold on a comment it gets minimized.

I don't like it. It's closed source and we have no idea what Zuck is doing behind the scenes. If it was open source I would trust it a lot more readily, but there's 0 chance of that ever happening.

I had a girl break down crying in one of my classes after the prof said the $200 textbook was mandatory. She said she was living paycheque to paycheque and couldn't afford it without skipping meals. We couldn't even pirate it because it was the "Canadian edition" which had a completely different chapter format and layout.

I'm a student right now, and basically every single person I have talked to has pirated a textbook at least once. Everyone is sick of paying $200 for a textbook that the prof sometimes doesn't even use.

It feels very exciting to be here! It's a lot more open and customizable than other social media. I really hope that this is a small glimpse of what the future of the internet could be.
