After reading your comment I was wondering why 24 years after the thing and not 20 or 25. "Round" numbers intuitively make more sense to me to create a connection to a previous event. Then it occurred to me, that the second and fourth letters of the alphabet are B and D, as in Dick Butler. Though I doubt Richard would have gone with that nickname. Then again, maybe him being constantly teased/bullied as the dick butler explains him going down a road of hate ;-)

Watching that movie was a drug-infested nightmare. The drugs were my fault, the nightmares were on the movie. The fire extinguisher scene went on for what felt an eternity. Showing the head for punch after punch after punch after punch after punch after punch after punch after punch after punch after punch after punch after punch after punch after punch after punch after punch after punch until it was a pulpy mess not recognizable as a head with blood seeping out of it. Actually, I think the right-hand side of the meme is a pretty apt categorization for that movie, except, maybe, the unenjoyable part. Enjoyability just depends on your own perversions and morbidity. And the title of the movie is a lie. I reversed the fire extinguisher scene: it becomes a love story of a kind and dedicated fire extinguisher reconstructing a dead man's head. I sometimes masturbate to that.

Tell me you haven't seen the uncut version of Irreversible without telling me you haven't seen the uncut version of Irreversible. That's like, peak entertainment. Thank me for the trauma later.

Most people suck with computers, no matter their age. There may or may not have been a time frame which resulted in a higher percentage of people knowing more basic computer stuff. Kids on computers tended to pick up more basic computer knowledge than kids only interacting with gaming consoles for the past 40 years. If you want to blame one thing for decreasing basic computer knowledge, kids being glued to their smartphones and not touching computers (laptops/towers) at all is the much more obvious candidate. Like kids playing on their N64 (insert arbitrary gaming console here) and not touching computers before. I think, OP, you're falling into a trap of over-projection, where you project yourself and your peers as a standard onto a generation/age-group, when most of us here on lemmy have always been the outliers. People are not "tech savvy"; never have been. Trying to put the blame on one company and product (no matter how evil and bad both are) for select age groups is ridiculous.

Not necessarily evil. But every religious person is damaging to society and the environment out of ignorance, because, for example, their voting is based on beliefs disjunct from reality, including absolute morals that will vilify a substantial part of the populace for no sane reason.

Yah, we're on the interweb. For all I know he could be Drath'nor.

What piece are you talking about? Statement makes sense either way.

Tötung in Notwehr ist kein Mord. Und ist ja auch keine Strafe sondern Präventionsmaßnahme zum Schutz des Volkes.

Wir haben zu pumpen diese Nummern hoch. Diese sind Anfängernummern!

EDIT: But once again I've fallen victim to a classic blunder. The sort of people who would say a roundabout is woke would never care about a well-reasoned argument. And I'm just preaching to the choir in this community anyway!

I'd question the existence of "the sort of people" in any meaningful quantity. As far as I can tell the only people dubbing it the 'most woke' roundabout are the authors of the article. Not a single person quoted uses the word woke. It's a classic rage bait headline to generate clicks.
