DontMakeMoreBabies , in stop asking for a karma system

Kbin already has something called reputation buried in the profile.

ikiru , in stop asking for a karma system

I always hated those subs that prevented you from posting unless you had a minimum amount of karma.

I used reddit for nearly a decade, but sometimes I wanted to make a throwaway for a specific, non-trolling purpose but was unable to do anything because of stupid, worthless karma.

AFKBRBChocolate , in I'm trying to prove a point. Without looking it up, what are these?

I’m too old to know what Phineas and Ferb is, but when I was young I used to love knowing obscure words like:

  • The indent between your upper lip and your nose is called the philtrum (more commonly known now because of piercings
  • The recess on the bottom of a wine bottle is called a punt.
  • The infinity symbol (like a sideways 8) is a lemniscate
  • The cap on the pointy end of an umbrella, or any other tubular thing (including a pencil) is called a ferrule
  • The space between your eyebrows is your glabella

Etc. Anyway, aglet was one of those. I was always so happy when I had an opportunity to use one (“Oh, man, my aglet broke!”).

SariEverna ,

And the infinity symbol is likely related to the analemma, the shape the sun traces out over the course of a year.

But are you old enough to remember Tom Cruise discussing them in the film Cocktail? (in the cinema on the original release‽ )

AFKBRBChocolate ,

Well, it came out when I was 26, but I don’t think I saw it.

Shoes, with the Aglets of the laces resting upon them.

fne8w2ah , in stop asking for a karma system

Anyone who demands a karma system on Lemmy should honestly stay tf out of here.

ram ,

I agree, but there already is a karma system.

ssboomman ,

Lemmy already has a karma system
