Time to stop using lemmy.world communities, fellas.

  • What's a standalone movie that deserves a good sequel?

    Jump

  • Agreed. There are a lot of posts in here about movies that are great as standalone movies.

  • Uh oh

    Jump

  • Also lick your lips and show a little teeth. I have a friend who is into bird watching, and apparently the licking of lips is often enough to scare away birds that would otherwise have waited around a little bit longer.

  • I've never been in a situation where me having a gun would have made things bettter.

    Jump

  • Most people don't sleep next to doors to the outside. Most windows are always locked. The least common way of a burglary happening is someone picking a lock.

    You will be awake with a significant amount of seconds to grab a gun if someone breaks into your home.

    As to doing it 24/7? Jesus, did you even read the rest of the post? That was the whole point of what you were replying to. They specifically said they think it's true that carrying it most of the time isn't the point.

  • Saw these on a neighbor's car

    Jump

  • And, as my friend who was restoring a vw bus laughed about, if there were any problems with the engine and your air tubes weren't perfectly sealed... wonderful exhaust fumes straight into your face.

  • I love science

    Jump

  • I liked derivatives and integrations. Series and sequences can suck my left third toe knuckle.

  • Trump, 79, finally admits he’s wearing compression socks and makeup to hide how sick he is

    Jump

  • The blood spots and bruises are just associated with getting old (and yes, some other things). I'm so used to seeing them on older patients, even ones not on blood thinners / clot reducing agents, that this thing with trump just screams nothingburger to me. Like, we know he's old. We're hoping it gets him soon... but stop just telling us things about him that show he's getting old, you silly media.

    The theory about him and the dementia treatment is interesting, but still just meh.

  • I love choice. I hate choosing.

    Jump

  • But I like xfce... :'(

  • I love choice. I hate choosing.

  • I mean, it's both good and bad. The amount of downvotes mean there is a large subset of folks who no longer recognize the twisting of stallman's rant. They are new to linux, and not super-serious-no-casuals-allowed penguin lovers. It's bad because I would love if everyone coming to linux could be as into it as I am. People who are invested into a thing take a much deeper look at things, and can appreciate it's soft and jagged parts and then properly make recommendations on how to change things.

  • Disney World cast member hurt stopping 180-kg fake boulder from hitting audience

    Jump

  • Holy fuck, I never realized all of that happened within a single week.

  • grindset

  • Brian Jacques, the og feast describer. I definitely tried his recipe book and enjoyed a lot of it.

  • I think yes, and no. There are certainly in-house tools that the outside folks don't get. LLMs for sure have better tiers and loosened guardrails.

    ...buuuuut, the people at an 'executive' level also are entirely unlike you and me. They are simultaneously as gullible and foolish as the 'sheep' of society, who are also buying into the 'AI' hype of LLMs, and so far removed from our situation that even using an LLM or search engine is entirely outside of their experience. They aren't going to be using an LLM to plan out a vacation or a work schedule and have it fail any more than they would have looked through a SEO optimized bullshit website about vacuum cleaners (or super slideshow-ified list of 'top ten pacific vacations!' website to show you a bunch of ads) five years ago. They'll ask the LLM (/search engine and only look at the ai at top) for the best pacific vacations and then tell their assistant to plan a vacation for them based on a quick glance at the result (or the same for the vacuum cleaner to replace the one that broke when their house cleaner was trying to get the super long hair from the super fru-fru breed that's only allowed in two rooms in the house out of the super luxurious thick rug).

    The way they use the LLM is perfectly fine for them. They aren't going to see any negatives from it, so the in-house or publicly available versions aren't really the reason for their ability to 'crow' about it. Same for the general downtrend of the internet. Their use case fucking sucks, and it isn't affected.

  • I think he meant 2017 and the ingrained year of 2025 led to him typing it slightly wrong.

  • What is used as an insult, but doesn't really feel like one?

    Jump

  • Maybe it's due to growing up in the wild internet era, where making international friends was simpler than trying to befriend the other dolts in the cafeteria, but I've always chuckled at people using cunt as an insult. It's such a gasp inducer among the older crowd, but even when I was just learning the word, it struck me as odd, and my thoughts were always in line with that one quote about pussies being able to take a pounding.

  • Ugh, that just leaves a lot of mothers with extra work to do.

  • How about the digestive system?

    Jump

  • Vaginal canal -> cervix -> uterus -> oviducts ->abdominal cavity

    I'd say the pussy is a hole.

  • What the Linux desktop really needs to challenge Windows

    Jump

  • Ugh, you've never had to be around jeep peeps, then. They'll start bragging about their dana 44 axles while babying the car down a graded gravel road. /eye_roll

  • An Ounce of Silver Is Now Worth More Than a Barrel of Oil

    Jump

  • I think a relative said they were getting ridiculously cheap $1.60 gas from walmart for some usaa benefit. It's definitely a little nutso.

  • Welcome to the thunderdome?

    Jump

  • I'm wondering if scale, as in the crud that can build up on certain materials under certain conditions, is simply derived from the fish scale sense. It would seem like it, since it's the 'shell or husk' Otherwise, yay, a fourth meaning!

  • You should know this, Scotty.

    Jump

  • Yep. Did it way before the expanse. I think that was my first introduction to the concept of accelerate flip accelerate the other way.
