Lemmy faces the same expectations problems as every free/libre software
It's the same as with Linux, GIMP, LibreOffice or OnlyOffice. Some people are so used to their routines that they expect everything to work the same and get easily pissed when not.
Will our conscious experience inevitably recur in the universe's infinite timeline? (lemmyunchained.net)
I continuously grapple with this intricate web of thought that intertwines infinity, atomic structure, and consciousness. It’s predicated on the assumption that if time truly is infinite, then there isn’t just a probability, but an inevitability, that all the matter in the universe will align exactly as they are now....

Soon in the near future, bank tellers and cashiers will be replaced by "convenience fees."
If everyone moved to open source non-profit solutions, the tech industry would lose billions
I’m a FOSS (free and open source software) contributor and enthusiast. So I prefer to use such products (Lemmy instead of Reddit, Linux instead of Windows, Firefox instead of Chrome, Signal instead of WhatsApp, you get the idea). Was just thinking that if everyone moved to such solutions, the tech and ad industry would lose...
Your lips don't touch when you say the word touch, but do touch when you say separate
My 8 year old son told me this randomly after getting out of the shower this morning.

People should start making memes that explain how Lemmy actually works
Since it seems to be a common question for many new users.
what if solar systems are synonymous to atoms in that they are the minute building blocks of something greater?
Prove me wrong, I dare you!
We are engaged in a mutually beneficial, parasitic relationship with nature
Half shower thought, half stoner thought. It may seem obvious, but I was dwelling on the point for a while, deeper and deeper....
Lose weight by (shower)thinking.
Thoughts are energy....
We did it Lemmy!
Perhaps this is a dark thought… but I’m wondering what the future Lemmy equivalents to “We did it Reddit!” or “Thanks for the gold kind stranger!” will be....
In the future bots will have CAPTCHAs to keep humans out of their communities
Babies that have only ever eaten milk are made of milk, so they’re basically sentient cheese.
Everything is easier said than done
Even writing this
If we call reddit users redditors, what do we call lemmy users
A lot of people say fedditors but that sounds way too derivative of reddit
Does existence of a language authority influence opinions about descriptivism/prescriptivism?
I was thinking of this because in my country there’s an institute which determines correct language and therefore many people speak or write their native language incorrectly. Whereas in English there’s no central authority which would write the rules....
Not a shower thought
Mods, please don’t let this community turn into a lemmy support channel. There’s probably 20 others.
Blowing air out of your mouth, like blowing out a birthday candle, is just a DC form of talking.
Error being blown out of your mouth is similar to DC ( direct current ) and that it’s a continuous wave of air with frequency zero. While speaking is like AC ( alternating current), a longitudinal wave that moves back and forth at a variety of frequencies.
why there is "cult" in "difficult"?
Employing sexual rewards as a means to resolve conflicts.
If the conflict is about not having enough sex, resolving to have more sex may be the resolution. Then the makeup sex to follow really blurs the lines…
Whoever invest the first fully functioning diet pill is gonna become the worlds richest person real quick
Fully functioning as in, you just eat it and lose weight, no strings or bullshit

Maybe NOW I’ll finally be able to post a showerthought
Why do we use base 60 for time and base 10 for everything else. Why has no one decided to integrate it.
Thought of this in the shower this morning, if anyone has an answer I'd be very interested!
