They also had "kaching" or something similar instead of rosebud in Sims 2 I think. But it was only 1k or 5k unsure. Motherlode was much more ye

Living in Florida I feel it's more common to see publicly. Recently join a "Walk for Heart Health" type event and it started with the national anthem and pledge. Local army ROTC high schoolers also came by a did... some form of rifle performance. This all was to "kick off" the event and most people had hands on their heart type stuff the whole time. Not to mention the city has "Land of the Free" flags on all the light polls in that plaza and it was interesting just HOW MANY people in florida wear those 1776 shirts or the "F around and find out" shirts still.
I currently work a 4/10 7am-5:30pm. It's not all people make it out to be, end of day if I want to do something after all my duties are completed my freetime comes out of my sleep time so what, 4 days of non-stop work/sleep/stress for 1 extra day. Some people may not want that and it still doesn't reduce how much we're exploited in any capacity. That sub is way too liberal for fundamental change, as is most of the "left" of reddit.
If you remember using teamspeak or ventrillo... Their is a FOSS alternative called mumble that works similarly. Its essentially the closest to what you're asking that has both VOIP and other features. Some communities especially mmorpg clans and gaming clans still use it. Idk how popular it is in general though. Discord is supported by huge donations which is why they've been able to dominate, but teamspeak/mumble still exist and essentially are the same thing but less modern.
IRC and Matrix are both IM systems but are alternatives to discord if that's all the functionality you seek. Matrix is also in the fediverse.
I'm pretty sure mine is available but I still opted to use a period and birth year. That said I have/had many fake name google, yahoo, and AOL emails so I'm a mixed bag.
It's about god dang time, especially with the FPS drops it used to have when it got busy perhaps we can see MGS4 buttery smooth now.

No you're not inherently hypocritical because while you may be the beneficiary of capitalist exploitation and landleeches, but that doesn't mean you must do the same. Not unlike what Engles did, there are pro worker movements that you could put your efforts toward especially if you're in a more comfortable and need to work relatively less.. After all it's hard to teach theory and spread awareness/organize labour power, if you're always having to work for the meat on your plate. We're not a movement of meritocracy/individuality, we need as many people to understand and teach the horrors of capitalism as well the way forward.
That all said ensure you get your education and don't waste this opportunity to ensure your own financial security (ideally with no reliance on labour value extraction). To become a capitalist is "bad" but there always will be capitalists so to be a capitalists that is pushing for revolution will be better than anti-revolutionaries exclusive holding the power. Additionally, many great members of the movement have benefited from or been themselves capitalists. Their self-awareness and efforts they made to write these wrongs is what set them apart.
TLDR; Not inherently hypocritical. You're benefiting from workers being squeezed, don't let them be sucked dry just so you can lick the cheeto dust off your fingers or else yeah that'd be pretty sour. You sound like you're already on the right track by even asking this question. Good luck comrade.
I grew up late to the early internet days as I am just about as old as google itself. However, even in my time I remember light saber mouse cursors, neo colored backgrounds, the stupid but adorable fairy animations all over myspace, and websites auto playing Queen songs. There was character that we put it as a community.
While I may not be the biggest fan of the flat design of the lemmy website and how clinical it all seems, the FOSS nature leads to so much customization with apps and so forth while the content y'all produce is absolutely magical. If I see an ad I know it's cause one of you have something unique to actually show off and it's not just bots pushing me to open my wallet. Thank you, you lovely bunch of adorable dufuses.
I think its just easier for many to go from 5e backwards due to how 5e has more "freedom" while earlier editions rely on additional rules and mechanics to determine a lot of the bloat. I started with 2e because my group was very stubborn and took years to adapt. congrats on joining the modern world though!!!
Mixed bag but no cut ties is the best outcome from my perspective. Plenty of new people who can actually see opinions that challenge their worldview so its not just a hugbox, I don't want those often toxic arguments here on genzedong itself, but on Lemmy.world having liberals see obvious communists who are lgbt, friendly, poc, etc will help soften their assumptions I hope.

I never beat the game but I'll always remember using Red5 in star wars dark forces 2. And the level skip code of course.... "Deeznuts"
