I know Lemmy is about to take off because the porn is quickly moving from drawn henti and furry images to gonewild onlyfan contributors. I call it the QOTP Index (Quality Of The Porn). Reddit is done.

I wonder if there's a parallel universe where children are called "childs" and adults are called "adultren"

Hmm.

What’s something on your mind lately that nobody else would understand?

Why aren't there more pirated audiobooks considering how easy it is to rip them from Audible?

edit: Libation apps needs you to give it your amazon password and ID, it’s foss and I trust it. (editing because seemed important)...

A book is like a TARDIS. It's bigger on the inside than on the out.

It can also do time travel.

Why shouldn’t firearm manufacturers be held accountable for the use of their weapons in crimes?

Quick edit: If this is considered in violation of rule 5, then please delete. I do not wish to bait political arguments and drama....

Do you think bad weather is a good reason for moving?

Would you uproot your life, leaving behind your family, your job etc if you dont like the weather in a country....

Why do so many Lemmy instances use weird TLDs?

I get that some instances use the domain + TLD to make a word, like lemm.ee or to an extent, sh.itjust.works. But I’ve seen so many TLDs I had no idea existed, like .world, .zone, .social, and yes .works as well....

This post knows where you're viewing it from (Lemmy doesn't proxy external images) [ARCHIVED]

Why did no one mention this to me?

I recently discovered ventoy and it’s so useful. Don’t have to flash isos anymore and can have a whole iso library. So useful.

Moving to new platforms/3rd party apps has made me realise everyone else has something against collapsing child comments.

I miss you RIF. I just wanna see the daddy comments.

What are some alternative to soulless videogame franchises?

What I mean is… sometimes people are very loyal to a videogame franchise or a company because they loved a game they released years ago (Silent Hill/Konami with Silent Hill 2, Blizzard/Bethesda with their respective golden eras, some could argue this happens too with Pokémon and Final Fantasy, etc). Ethical/consumer reasons...

What is a nutritious, filling, and easy to eat breakfast for really early in the morning?

Preferably something that has little to no preparation required.

Me everytime something wrong happens in my life

Lemmy Shit posting open to public posting again

lemmy.ml is getting nothing new from lemmy.world, seem cut off since Saturday EDIT: fixed on Wednesday

I found one post from 12 hours ago that describes the problem: lemmy.ml/post/2650814 - but that’s all I’ve seen. Content is way down on lemmy.ml with nothing coming in from .world...

What are electrolytes?

I know gator-aid and its like advertise that they have lots of them. And I know sometimes I feel bad if I sweat a lot and just drink water. But are they just advertising… salt? Are there different kinds of electrolytes, and if so are they interchangable?

Why does freedom of speech seem to invoke the right to be an arse?

I am not targeting any group, race or religion or whatever, just an observation why does it seem that freedom of speech appears to invoke an image of a defence to be an asshole?...

If humans were born with 6 fingers on each hand we would be using base 12 instead of the decimal system.

Whats a stupid ritual in your life that makes you happy?

Having coffee, smth sweet and a followup cigarrete in the morning makes me happy to be awake. Or kiss goodbyes and hellos.

Do younger people go home earlier now? Or go out less? Is it since COVID?

Someone asked a question about how frequently young people have time to socialize and it made me think about what people do with their evenings. I recently asked my son to go to a concert (free ticket to see a band i know he likes) and he declined because it was an hour away on a weeknight. If we invite our kids or niece/nephew...

I know that recent drama has caused a bit of uneasiness in the community for this platforms future, but I am optimistic for lemmy. It might be helpful to look to mastodon to learn how to move forward.

What do you do to make the Internet a nicer place?

How is it even possible/practical to obey traffic laws?

I’m talking specifically about obeying the speed limit, doing a full stop at stop signs, etc. After receiving a speeding ticket for doing 53 in a 50, As an experiment I went a full day obeying all traffic laws 100% and it caused so much road rage. For example, there is a 2 lane road near me with a speed limit of 50 (where I...
