  • Moral outrage is addictive

    Jump

  • Last time I had a proper surge of emotion I got angry that some stranger forcibly pushed me on public transport. I struggle enough standing on public transport with low grade cerebral palsy.

    I did not like emotionally responding like that one bit. Spent days trying to figure out why I got so upset by someone acting like an ass. Did not care for it. The idea of wanting to elicit that kind of emotion is just unfathomable to me. I prefer when everything is just kind of muted.

  • Not the guy you replied to, but I'm both intrigued and horrified by the idea of having emotions working like that. Honestly haven't even considered it.

    Thank you for this, it made me do a full stop and I am left confused.

  • I assigned myself one of these things but why do they exist?

  • Can you use multiple tags? Say someone who's an excellent coder and an arsehat, do they get both or does one have to win out? Alternatively do you make a new tag for them? Excellent arsehat?

    I'm honestly curious, I'm haunted by people using too many, too varied, and too generic tags in DevOps and am doing anything to find a way to remedy it.

  • Have you ever seen a man with a face like that?

  • Or Heyerdahl... Definitely a Christopher though!

  • Honestly, how can they expect you not to hug it. Just look at the ears!

  • What do you think is the opposite of Kiwifarms?

    Jump

  • I love that sentiment. I feel learning about things I don't have any familiarity with, be it cultural, historical, physical, or anything else really helps me understand and empathise better.

  • Celebrating, or hating,someone for characteristics outside their control is really weird to me.

    Sites like the one mentioned aren't worth giving time or attention, even mentally. My mind short circuits into thinking the same about sites celebrating the same.

    I'd be awfully annoyed if someone went around celebrating me for having brain damage, as if I'm some prop to be hoisted around.

    Instead I'd prefer we'd focus on building sites and communities where such things don't matter, and where we can all give each other enough leeway to get along amicably.

    I'm aware it's a pipe dream, and people just aren't good at that, myself included, but the idea is dear to me.

  • What are you watching and what do you recommend this week?

    Jump

  • I just watched the latest Starfleet Academy. I've not made up my mind on it yet, so I can't recommend it for other reasons than it being Star Trek. I would recommend watching it before making up one's mind about it though.

    As for something I would recommend, Journey Quest, on YouTube, recently came out with new content, and is well worth the watch.

  • I prefer this recap to what I remember from disco. I'm going to start remembering it like this now too.

  • While I agree with this sentiment, some places are easier to just avoid, be it Reddit, x, or wherever.

    If you go on a tankie instance to discuss the finer points of day trading, you're gonna have a bad time, and might be better off going somewhere else, provided they don't ban you.

    Personally I just block annoyances and move on, no point in me getting upset at people spamming in German in English communities, and I've got no interest in interacting with it.

  • Read this in the voice of Samuel L. Jackson. 10/10. Would recommend.

  • From just the name my mind instantly thought of the conflict as "conflict diamonds", and I began to wonder what constitutes a conflict free boolean or integer.

    If anyone wants to take a crack at writing up why primitives are unfortunate, and we should move on to new "conflict free data types"™ I will cheer you on!

    Also, very interesting read about actual conflict free replicated days types. Cheers!

  • What content filters are you using to clean up your Lemmy feed?

    Jump

  • I only show communities I'm subscribed to explicitly in my feed. I also block users like it's going out of fashion.

    Anyone spamming things I don't care for in my feed, trolls, rage baters, or just people posting shit I have no desire to interact with our think about on the regular.

    I'm using Lemmy mainly as an aggregator for memes, cat pictures, sci-fi, comics, and the likes, and like to be able to browse it on the bus or similar without worrying about what might show up.

    If it's not for me, I'm most likely in the wrong community. If that's not the case I just block the poster. Nothing personal, it just doesn't jive with my desired experience for any number of reasons, so I just block it, ignore it, and move on.

    Lemmy is for everyone, and I can't expect all of them to want the same out of it as me, so I can't, won't, and shouldn't do anything else about it.

  • My headcannon for a lot of those things is that it's really hard to retcon earlier made statements and actions, so some times He can't go with the sensible approach in order to get around it.

  • If you like spy thrillers with a bit of a slower burn, then yes.

    Not James Bond spies mind, we're talking the greasy haired spy with holes in his socks nursing a hangover.
