Thanks!

Who’s the source artist for this? Would love to follow him on Instagram

I’ll admit that it looks cool, but man…I just have a hard time seeing how that could possibly be functional.

Absolutely love the fabric brands. This inspired me to go buy that Timex, thank you for sharing!

Fine. Let him have the place. The experience here on Lemmy has been vastly superior anyway. Engagement is 1,000x better. It’s night and day how much kinder, thoughtful, and intelligent people here have been.

This is exactly how I learned all those years ago, and to this day, I still use vim regularly. As in, literally, I was using it on a server this morning to make some changes. It’s just become natural to me now.

IMO it’s fine to just make a post about it in one of the larger communities that seems appropriate. Now is exactly the time for us to promote one another! And Lemmy doesn’t have an algorithm, so you’re going to have to do some leg work to get the word out. I think people will be appreciative and understanding of that, I would be.

Also /r/tiktokcringe, so many of the videos there had me nearly in tears in laughter

The Internet, sadly, has always been an awful place for women and minorities. I hope we can build a culture here where that kind of shit isn’t tolerated, and all (sans trolls, bigots, racists, and Nazis) are made to feel welcome and respected.

Except the Dutch. Fuck those guys.

Someone did, though there’s nothing on it now https://lemmynsfw.com/

Spammers and other bad actors are typically more likely to make the effort than people who might well add a lot of value.

Why do you think this?

I disagree with that. The larger subreddits have significant moderation problems. Only through extraordinary efforts by the mod teams, such as at /r/askhistorians, are things kept in line. It’s simple math: the more users you have, the more likely you are to have people posting in bad faith. If a subreddit of 1 million users has only 0.05% of its users posting low quality content, that’s still 50,000 people that need to be moderated for.

The more popular a community becomes, the shittier it gets. The easier you make it to join and interact with, the more popular it will become.

In the case of places like Gab, Truth Social, Parlor, and other right wing nut job havens, while the quality of users might not get higher if you raised the barrier to entry, those places certainly wouldn’t have become as popular as they have.

But the barrier to entry isn’t the only reason they’ve congregated there, they have other cultural reasons driving them, primarily the owners or moderators being friendly to that kind of mindset. I don’t think the same crowd would be able to gather here as they’d just get defederated.

I have high hopes for Alan Wake and Metal Gear

Okay. Well, we’re all hungry. We’re gonna get to our hotplates soon enough, alright?

The Last of Us Part I (for the third time, I think?). Streaming it to my iPad in bed at night.

For a few minutes here and there, COD MW2 is fun. I used to love FIFA but I get too pissed off playing that anymore, so I’m off it.

Perhaps, but the downside is that it takes me forever to finish any single one lol
