Just Linux usually.
GNU/Linux if I need to differentiate most Linux distros from non-GNU OSes using the Linux kernel such as Android, Chrome OS, and Alpine.

American TV and movies after the '00s. Not representative enough of normal American life to be relatable (which is why I like '90s and '00s American TV so much) and not original enough to be interesting (which is why I’m into anime.)
If Stone Temple Pilots ever does that acoustic tour focusing on their softer songs they cancelled due to COVID (they’ve toured since but not that particular idea.) Perdida is one of my favorite “post-prime” albums from any band, and in general STP’s softer material is what makes them one of my favorites.
I’ll go to see My Chemical Romance if they put out a new album.
David Gilmour.
Weezer in a theater (I went to the Hella Mega Tour but Weezer I’ve heard is way better in a theater than an arena.)
I’m an apatheist. Just don’t try and force me to care about your religion or lack thereof.
Uncommon in my culture: Makoto (disclaimer: I think Makoto might still be more common in my culture than my real name)
Uncommon in general: Kitty
TikTok basically controls the Billboard Hot 100 right now. Some say that’s why 2023 was, according to a lot of pop music critics, such a bad year for pop.
But honestly, TikTok losing control over Billboard or less UMG artists on the charts are both positives to me.
I could kinda understand this if you live in a rural area and have had it for years…but still, first world problems, my god.
This just isn’t a CCP shill post. Western and Korean companies simply refuse to sell an EV that isn’t a luxury car, and Japanese companies seem to be trying to get out of making EVs period. The only one I could name, Chevy Bolt, got the axe last year.
Like, I look like an American Nationalist next to most Lemmy users (you could say I am in a way, but not in the conventional right-wing flag waver way.) But BYD coming to America would fill a need, even if the cars actually suck. Teslas suck, but they still sell, and there are alternatives to Tesla.
I’m not sure I’d call this “cheaping out” but unless you can’t even afford that or you have a specific reason you need a more expensive one, you should buy mid-range ($200 - $400) phones. The early '10s are over and mid-range is more than adequate for the average phone user. Plus quite a few mid-ranges still have expandable storage and/or headphone jacks.
All of the sixth gen ones. Dreamcast, PS2, OG Xbox, GameCube.
Also SNES and 3DS.
Sonic 3 & Knuckles and Kirby Planet Robobot for the same reason: while not the most innovative games and not necessarily my favorites in their respective franchises, they represent nearly flawless implementations of their respective franchise’s ideas.
Sometimes I feel like Mario and a couple popular indie games are the only platformers that get taken seriously honestly.
Star Citizen is what iRacing players look at to feel better about themselves
Actually that’s too mean to iRacing players since iRacing works
Norway, where Tesla is becoming the most popular car brand
How the fuck are Norwegians affording that
At least two communities I use are on Beehaw, but I wouldn’t be super affected.
I’ve honestly just come to the conclusion that being an asshole about the fact that other countries exist is just the continental past time of Europe.
Like, Americans get the most of it but they’re like this toward people from other European countries too.
I would love to have them, but Meta being the largest fediverse instance by far means it’d give them too much power over the fediverse.
Terraria.
Because to me Terraria feels more like a freer version of a Metroidvania than a survival game. And while you start weak you get downright overpowered.
If the game has a good enough character creator I’ll play a male. But most games and especially most Western games with character creators don’t allow me to make a male character I’d actually want to look like or at.
Most Americans do not live nearly as well as it is portrayed on TV or in movies.
I think American TV in the last ten years has started to portray people as richer than it did in the 90s and 00s even. Is there anything like Everybody Hates Chris or My Name is Earl on? Shit, even Malcolm in the Middle they were clearly middle class but I feel like most American TV now is about upper middle class people or Hollywood. (I’ve heard of Abbot Elementary but haven’t watched it.)
Game Pass is a profoundly stupid decision. It doesn’t make it’s money back and now Xbox users are used to not paying for games. And from a consumer perspective, enshittification always eventually happens with subscriptions.
