And then all of them are “Nicole”.
The Polish Partier.
i have a different pic in my inbox. do i suppose to collect them all? i want a rare Nicole now
I have them both, so… Yes?
I have none :(
I hear there was four. One of them is ultra rare.
My friend told me stories of that one but I’m pretty sure she hasn’t seen it herself.
What’s the att/def on your Nicole? I’ll trade you mine - just pulled a disappearing Nicole. No idea what the att is, but given that it disappeared from my deck, I must imagine the def is wicked high
Aww, I don’t feel special anymore.
I got mine today after a year on Lemmy. I was starting to feel left out.
The Fediverse Chick.
I guess I’m not special enough, Nicole doesn’t want to talk to me.
I just got mine today, like some tribal initiation
Still haven’t gotten one. Guess the bots don’t like me.
You might have received one but we usually delete them pretty quickly. We’re either doing an ok job at fighting spam, or I’m keeping her to myself.
Damn power hungry admins always keeping the sweet sweet bot ladies for themselves.
update private_message set deleted = true from person where person.id = private_message.creator_id and person.actor_id in ('https://lemmy.cafe/u/nicole');🚮
EDIT: lmao cope harder, spammer. Makes it easier to find your alts.
I got a message from nicole with a pic. I thought it was a scammer or something. Just a one off thing. Is that not the case? Is Nicole a lemmy thing?
Gods please don’t let this be a trend…
Bro I got that too!!!
My first thought is always “Must be Nicole the Fediverse chick again” 😂
I just got her message this morning! 😂
She never talks to me anymore after that one night…
Man what am I doing wrong? Still nothing from her. Oh well. She’s probably too good for me anyways :,(
I just assume I said something factually wrong and now dozens of helpful people are lining up to correct me.
Uhm, acshually… ☝️
Ah, I see you’ve developed a humiliation fetish as well
You forgot a comma.
“Windows is a good OS”
“Capitalism is a good system”
The goal is contraversial not idiotic lol
Now hold on, are you talking about Windows 7 and 10, or 11? These are very different things!
XP
Vista
Man, that’s just playing Russian Roulette with a ban hammer.
🤣🤣🤣
Yes, this man right here, kill him with hammers.
We’re getting hammered? Nice.
Absolutely!
Honestly, I’ve tried dual booting Linux lately. I’m on mint. Even after weeks of setting things up, I’m constantly running into issues. Particularly with drivers and such. Also, the gaming has come a long way, but the games I play don’t run as well on my current linux setup.
I haven’t given up on it yet. Even though all the bs I put up with in windows, it works better for me at the moment.
Often followed by, “I said that?”
Then you read your original comment and, no, you didn’t say that; someone’s just trying to gaslight you or they’re straw manning.
Or they keep explaining what you already said because they don’t understand nuance or context.
Or your take is just fucking bad and your ego won’t let you admit it, one of the two.
Speak for yourself.
I did. I’m always right, we’re talking about you and your bad takes (the ones I don’t agree with)
I know what I said, y’all’s angst feeds me.
This would all be easier if you all just agreed with me, the always correct person.
I might not always be right, but I’m never wrong
If I’m ever wrong. I delete that comment and pretend it didn’t happen. Or if someone actually makes a good counter argument I just go “meh, don’t feel like replying” and leave them unread. I do the worst crime. I’ll be 10 replies in and I won’t even downvote their last comment to let them know I read it. I’m sure it’s infuriating.
I got the last comment! I won!
Not so fast, BUDDY
I’d agree with you, but then we’d both be wrong.
A bunch are usually people disagreeing and making up situations to make themselves right… i.e., you posit that the sky appeared blue when you went outside today, the replies are: not if it’s night, not during cloudy days, etc. and at least one that sounds like they disagree but are reiterating what you just said.
I’ve made this observation before, but the funniest thing about Lemmy is that !ShowerThoughts posts elicit more controversy than !UnpopularOpinion. Like, someone posts “I love pineapple on pizza” in !ShowerThoughts, and it’s downvoted to hell with people writing long essays about how pineapple on pizza is justification for bringing back shock treatment. The same thing posted to !UnpopularOpinion brings out a mob of people saying how not unpopular an opinion that is, quoting statistics about how Hawaiian Pizza is the most popular pizza in America. It’s absolutely hilarious, and one of the few areas where the Lemmy community is truly contrarian just for contrarian’s sake.
With the exception of populations of some instances which I won’t hex by bearishly naming, and a few individually excessive dicks (or trolls, but I think most are really just assholes), the Lemmy community tends to argue in good faith, admit when they’re wrong or have had their minds changed, and are generally polite netizens in most exchanges. But !ShowerThoughts and !UnpopularOpinion just being out the contrarian in people, for some reason.
people writing long essays about how pineapple on pizza is justification for bringing back shock treatment.
I’m here for the essays. To read them…and to write them.
Have to get it out of my brain.
Unpopular opinion is just posting things that plenty of people actually agree with. Like pineapple pizza. An actual unpopular opinion would be something like agreeing with restricting abortion or something difficult that elicits very strong feelings.
Actual unpopular opinions are not allowed on unpopular opinion
Similarly actual shitposts are banned in shitposting communities.
Actual fuck subscriptions are not allowed on c/fucksubscriptions@lemmy.world
I mean, I guess. Haven’t tried.
True. They probably get downvoted to oblivion.
But do we really believe the posters think what they’re posting is a popular opinion? Maybe they really think it’s unpopular, because of their IRL experiences, or what they see online.
I think it’s because people know what’s unpopular, but the heavy stuff, they don’t want to be associated with. So they choose milquetoast unpopular opinions, which aren’t really unpopular as much as maybe a minority. Like, a majority of voters voted for Trump, but thinking Kamala would have been better isn’t unpopular, it was just the minority opinion among people who got their fat assess out and voted.
Now, saying “only white, biologically born males should be allowed to vote” would be a truly unpopular opinion, but although there are absolutely more than zero people on Lemmy who believe this, no way in hell they’re going to post that.
So people stay with “safe” unpopular opinions, like… “NYC is the ugliest city I’ve ever seen.” Sure, you’ll learn some new insults from the responses, but nobody’s going to troll through your post history and throw it in your face in every argument, or follow you around and downvote everything you post because of it. Ok, maybe some New Yorkers will do the latter, but you know what I mean.
Consequently, because they’re just minority and not truly unpopular, all of the people who agree come out of the woodwork, incensed that this entirely reasonable opinion would be posted a being “unpopular.”
Thank you for coming to my Ted-L talk.

That’s pretty much it as far as the /comm goes.
Me is, how stoned was I.
Look at all these replies! I can’t wait to tell all these internet randos how wrong they are!
How do I post a photo in comments? New here due to Reddit ban.
You’re asking the wrong person. Due either to my client, or my instance, I get, like, a 20% success rate on attaching images. Most of the time I get an error.
On my client, there’s a little picture icon. When I click that, it lets me select a picture and, if the wind is blowing in the right direction and the stars align, the picture is embedded. Otherwise, I upload to catbox.moe and manually embed the URL. The markdown syntax for an embedded image is:
On desktop, you can just paste it.
You can do markdown, so
If you’re using voyager you can just copy and paste and it will handle it, usually, assuming your instance has image uploads enabled.
I’m on Mlem, seems easier to navigate.
I know mlem just got a new update, so I can’t comment on that BUT I can say that always come back to voyager.
It’s as close to the Apollo Reddit client as there is (as far as I’m aware)
I’ve been playing around with the different options, Mlem isn’t bad. Voyager’s interface was a little all over the place for me.
I use Jerboa client on Android. It feels very much like the Reddit is Fun app.
There are rich text buttons at the bottom of the new post field. One is a photo icon, click that and it takes you to your photo/file browser to select a pic.
Here’s a pic I took of Earth’s bff, la Luna.
If your in for a wild ride, you can post something like “Steam sucks”, or ask anything about “Hexbear”. If you just want positive attention, go with “What’s the best distro for…?”
Steam does suck though? It’s hard to use, and most things are better boiled/blanched or fried.
Looks like we have a noob that wouldn’t survive 10 minutes in a kitchen lobby here. Everyone knows that cooking with steam preserves nutrients, enhances flavor, and retains the natural texture of food.
Seriously. This punk thinks he can have any form of serious power without steam. What a chump
Well you can have solar, wind, and hydroelectric without steam, so it’s not like you need steam
I didn’t say there weren’t some forms of generation that didn’t involve steam. I’m just saying those pathetic puny sources will never amount to the energy produced by generating steam. The sun won’t always shine, and the wind won’t always blow. And there’s only so many places you can capture flowing water. And even the most effective forms of solar use solar thermal to make steam. We just have to admit that steam is the GOAT
They discovered a new power source!
Does it involve creating steam and generating power from that?
Well, huh, never mind.
If you just want positive attention, go with “What’s the best distro for…?”
Clearly the best distro is Windows 10!
Got me.
This is my primary use of reddit.
Late night shitposting, i instantly forget, and seeing lots of interesting comments in the morning.
deleted by creator
Reminded me of this
Most of the time I know exactly what I’m getting if I see more than maybe 3+ comments. Usually it’s me saying something anti-communist, something on brand enough for me.
Immediately go to my comments to see whats getting downvoted to hell.
