Glad to see the other misinformation classics like Richard Gere's gerbil mentioned.

Anyone remember Jamie Lee Curtis was secretly a hermaphrodite?

It was known. I don't trust anything I learned pre Internet anymore, including the number of planets.

Steam just made a big step forward with steam link, but previously the headset manufacturers were releasing Windows only link software.

Also there are now open source solutions like ALVR.... But like most FOSS it can require some know how.

(Or maybe he meant Meta is getting all his data anyways, why be picky)

In my first weeks with it i had a subdirectory named "home" somewhere in a project directory I was done with. It must have been finger memory but when i went to delete it I typed

rm -Rf /home

That slash ruined my day

This is the most viral lemmy I've seen yet. I hope the servers can handle all the images.

Take a pic from a slightly different angle with a handwritten note with the date, AMA style... Then the Internet will know that these paintings belong to Shave_MyBeever!

I'm just sure this meme guy went on to have a very successful life in the food industry... And they were happy to accept both the data and spirit of his research.

Those claims are about porn addiction. Not the act of watching porn. On top of that, putting the burden of child trafficking and abuse onto the sites that would publicly host porn is like blaming climate change on people putting plastic in the wrong bin. Places that propagate the awful content mentioned by this warning are already against the law and flying under the radar. This is just BS that gets righteous Texan votes, not something that helps victims. It certainly doesn't accept that consensual adults make and watch porn in healthy ways. It's also why these folks get called out for their scandals, which wouldn't be news worthy if they didn't grandstand.

It wasn't a play on words. PEPFAR had bipartisan support until recent months when heritage foundation decided to target it for made-up abortion fears. It was truly keeping it real by just being a health benefit program for countries that needed help fighting aids and it has saved millions of lives. But 20 years later in today's political climate it is somehow controversial.
