Adopt baby Hitler and raise him in a way that would not give rise to the kinds of feelings and ideologies that could lead him down the path of ethno-nationalsim.
That’s when we figure out that this is the path that lead him to flip flop completely hating everything you taught. You went back to stop Hitler only to be the thing that caused his reign of terror. Life would have that kind of irony.
On the one hand, sushi is delicious. On the other hand, I don’t like parasites and raw meat is one of the most common sources of them. This I think is one of the fundamental conflicts of humanity.
Heads up, Hitler’s mom died of breast cancer when he was young. If you’re going to seduce her, you should be emotionally prepared for the consequences.
I appologize for deleting all my posts. And I don’t at the same time. Maybe try asking here in more general communities? Everything doesn’t have to come from a boutique subreddit.
I was talking about stuff that was already there. A bunch of specific questions that most people wouldn’t think of.
An example would be Thinkpad. More often than not, when you search for a solution for your problem, it would yield some Reddit links on the first page.
Just finished binging the 12 Monkeys TV show, thats just variations on an oops loop. If you seduce Hitlers mom you’ll just end up being the father figure he never met. If you strand him in Nepal then either Hitler or any Austrian who witnesses you doing the timey-wimey dance will just blame an international cabal of time traveling Jews for it.
Delicious. One of the few fights my wife and I had was when she offered me some of her sushi she had just purchased and I put some butter in a pan and lightly seared both sides and then sat down next to her… and that’s when the fight started.
Tasted delicious though, had her try it and she agreed that it tasted better cooked but also that defeated the whole premise of Sushi and I was going to hell for doing this thing.
She no longer offers me sushi. Also, it turns out sushi people are just eating raw fish because they are pretentious and not because it taste better raw.
This is pretty much why I’m in favor of worker coops or any other form of democratizing the work place. All it takes is a greedy CEO or a shareholder board wanting increasing profits to ruin a good thing. If the workers themselves are the ones making those decisions, then you need to convince the majority of the company to ruin a good thing. Somehow I doubt the people doing the actual work at Reddit would’ve decided to fuck the site like that.
I don’t need Lemmy to be a replacement for Reddit anymore than I needed Reddit to be a replacement for Digg. It’s a different platform and it’s allowed to be different.
I need Lemmy to simply be a social link sharing and message board. And it’s doing that perfectly.
I also don't need it to have a bazillion-septillion-megamillion users to consider it successful. In my mind, engagement with 10 people is worth much more than a thousand upvotes from someone mindlessly clicking my post.
Yeah, I’ve realized I mostly want “social media” as a place to create discussions. For that, honestly, the smaller community size is perfect.
I find massive communities have a way of devolving into hive minds. Once you reach a critical mass of people who think one thing, any comment to the contrary is just… obliterated, whether by an exhausting amount of argument, or downvotes. And then it just becomes known that that’s the opinion of the community, and people stop even bringing it up. At least that’s my theory on how it happens.
Over here, with a smaller community size, I’m finding a lot more genuine conversation, no matter the topic. It’s awesome. And I’m still finding Lemmy large enough to bring me interesting links and memes to talk about.
Reddit has made me realise that I have an aweful sense of humor, because none of my silly joke comments would get any upvotes. On lemmy, I almost always get at least one upvote or a comment. It ain’t much, but I like that my comment made someone’s day second, even it’s just one person.
Reddit only upvotes the same rehashed, repeated, stupid Reddit phrases spewed ad nauseam. You’ll always be upvoted for “play stupid games, win stupid prizes!!!111” or calling people Karens, or “equal rights, equal lefts” and all that absolute twaddle.
Damn, I just realized right now that I haven’t seen a single /s or someone upset that another comment left of a /s here. At least, I don’t recall any, there’s probably been a few of the first at least. But it’s nice being in a community where you don’t have to bash some users over the head with what you’re trying to say.
It wasn’t that rare to see one comment heavily downvoted but that commenter upvoted in replies to replies. Sometimes it was on them for poorly presenting their thoughts in the first place, but it seemed like the majority would often put their own meaning to comments and any doubt would lead to assumptions that the commenter was evil or something. Though I have seen that phenomenon here, including today.
Once you reach a critical mass of people who think one thing, any comment to the contrary is just… obliterated, whether by an exhausting amount of argument, or downvotes.
There’s also this effect where when you get further down a comment chain only people who really care about that particular argument keep reading. So past say comment 3 everyone is super duper opinionated.
He is right, but I don’t see any problem with it. Personally I prefer lemmy to Reddit, but I still go back to Reddit due to the lack of content here. It will probably be a gradual transition where I completely stop using Reddit, and I am fine with it.
I meant to reply to your comment with this, but instead accidentally made a separate comment:
There definitely needs to be more content, or more specifically more niche content.
There are some communities I would like to see that I don’t believe exist (like Hobbydrama) which is disappointing.
People always reply “dude, just create one” but it’s really not that simple for a few different reasons.
First, I don’t even think we can create communities on sh.itjust.works instance right now. Second, I don’t know how to moderate an instance and don’t really have the time to learn. Third, the community would be barren unless someone just rips off like the top 30 posts from that subreddit, and I don’t have an account to reach out to the redditors to ask for their permission (and I really dont want to piss off the people actually creating the content so they are so jaded they never want to come over to Lemmy/the community).
I never use a password manager and a tablet so I can’t comment on those, but for everything else, what kind of devices do you have to run into those problems? Even my shitty laptop from 2016 that is on live support can run Firefox without issues. Are yours from the last century or something?
And “FF on Android keeps refreshing pages when changing tabs”? Dude, that’s called resource management, even Brave and Chrome do that if you have 20 tabs opened, you expect a damn phone to be as powerful as a normal average freaking PC?

2018 i7 Zenbook with 24GB of ram. Of course it “runs” Firefox all fine, but it’s just these little things that force me to switch back to Chrome because I encounter small, but key issues which make me unable to continue working in it
And “FF on Android keeps refreshing pages when changing tabs”? Dude, that’s called resource management, even Brave and Chrome do that if you have 20 tabs opened, you expect a damn phone to be as powerful as a normal average freaking PC?
I have 8 gigs of ram on my phone so I wouldn’t expect this to happen with just 2 tabs open especially since Chrome does not do that, at least not every time I switch between tabs, even within seconds.
Don’t get me wrong, I understand how shitty it is for Google to monopolise the internet and web market and I would love to be able to permanently switch to Firefox, but let’s stop acting like Firefox is perfect, because it just isn’t. Sure, neither is Chrome, it has its issues beside privacy as well, but all in all performance- and usability-wise Firefox is just inferior.
I have 2 laptops with 8GB of ram each, a PC with 16GB and a phone with 6GB and non of them has problems, I even have 10 tabs open on my phone and non of them refreshes unless I manually do it. I haven’t run into a single issue with FF on any of my devices for my 3 years of using it. Just what kinds of bloatware do you have running in the background to run into those problems?
I mean, if gold is massively devalued. Don’t think it’d ever be worth less than leaves, but given its actual useful properties (as opposed to its arbitrary use as a currency) gold’s value should be a lot lower than it is.
