Kind of a trend, the amount of youtubers who i had loved but their content became generic after gaining popularity is quite a bit, most drastic one being mrwhosetheboss, his uniqueness went down faster than MH27 MH17
The recent chat bot advances have pretty much changed my life. I used to get anxiety by receiving mails and IMs, sometimes even from friends. I lost friendships over not replying. My main issue being that I am sometimes get completely stuck in a loop of how to formulate things in the best way to the point of just abandoning the...
I love bridges. If I see a cool looking bridge, I want to cross it, especially if it goes somewhere that I’m not familiar with. Same with stairs outdoors. They feel like an adventure to me.
No chance I ever pay for premium when third party clients have more features for free than the official app and site have when paid. An official version of sponsorblock would be a good start so I could skip through the crap in videos.
Disruptive protest, no matter how annoying, is valid and should be protected under law. When the government moves to ban protest and dissent, they’ve crossed the line into authoritarianism.
The right to protest is a fundamental of democracy, and we should not accept any erosion of the fundamentals of democracy.
All the gnarly experimental vehicles designed by Soviet engineers during WW2 and the cold war. Multi-turreted tanks, flying aircraft carriers, ekranoplans, etc.
Most of it ended up being wildly impractical and never put into mass production, but damn was it cool as hell.
World was already the biggest by far when I first started lurking back in July, and it’s just getting more dominant. Before, there was quite some diversity in the distribution of generic communities, but nowadays the vast majority of posts that reach the top are from over there....
The media won’t give me great answers to this question and I think this I trust this community more, thus I want to know from you. Also, I have heard reports that Russia was winning the war, if that’s true, did the west miscalculate the situation by allowing diplomacy to take a backseat and allowing Ukraine to a large...
As others have said, it’s a war of attrition. There’s no end in sight. As it stands, we can only speculate on who is winning. Russia have so far failed to make any significant gains, and Ukraine have so far failed to push the Russians out.
It’s a bit like the stalemates of trench warfare in WW1. Something will have to give eventually.
A panic attack I had about 5 years ago. I was walking to my car and just froze once I was about 30 ft away. I couldn’t move, I was just freaking out. Had to call my dad to come get me and physically help me walk to the car then drive me home.
Never been so terrified in my life, and I wasn’t in any danger. I was left genuinely traumatised by that 20 or so minutes that I was waiting for my dad.
I’ve always got panic attacks but that particular one was so bad that I’ve struggled to recover from it. I’m still suffering from some agoraphobia as a result.
Pretty much the title. I’ve been watching more realistic super hero shows like The Boys and Invincible. The reoccurring themes is that with great power comes great immorality....
These are fun things to speculate about, but ultimately I have no idea what I’d do if I suddenly had that kind of power. I might use it for good, or I might become a monster.
Im not really a political person but the one thing I do care about is pot. Which candidate is most supportive of federally legalizing or at least bumping down the schedule 4 drug status of pot.
A realistic singleplayer shooter game with multiple settings from WW1 right through to the Vietnam war. Extensive maps, vehicles, and weapons. You can play anything from an infantry soldier to the captain of a battleship or pilot of a bomber.
Im having difficulty finding names I like. I need two - three names that roll off the tongue and wouldn’t be out of place with a long hyphenated surname....
I rocked a Samsung Alias 2 for 4 years before I got an iPhone 5. The e-ink keyboard was awesome how it changed when you flipped the screen open to portrait or landscape.
Accordingly, some historians believe the P.1000 Ratte diagram to be either a hoax, or alternatively a speculative engineer’s sketch made for personal amusement.
I’d be inclined to believe this. There’s no way the Ratte was ever a serious concept that they believed they could actually build.
Would love to know what you guys think and your reasoning for it. I’m starting to see a lot of Apple Watches/Fitbits/Galaxy Watches in my area compared to more traditional timepieces.
My car is old and has a display for Android auto that is powered by the cigarette lighter. I’m waiting for it to turn on, then I’m picking some music on Spotify to play during my drive.
I feel the same way about a lot of modern hip-hop and pop music. I really enjoy the music but I just can’t relate in any way to the bragging lyrics about having loads of money.
Feel like I’ve heard the Lamborghini Urus casually mentioned in about a dozen UK hip-hop tracks over the past 6 months…
They are hardline Marxist-Leninists, something that is very rare in the western world even amongst those who identify as leftist or socialist. If their views make you uncomfortable, then you’re not a ML, which is okay.
Left-wing politics is a very broad spectrum, and a lot of Lemmy users lean towards the more moderate end which brings them into conflict with the more radical communities that are Lemmygrad and Hexbear.

I'm a fan of "Southern Rock," but sometimes the lyrics make me wonder if i should drop it. Generally I listen more for music than message, but I don't want my kids hearing "be proud you're a rebel..."
