Some places have their own “weird” delicacy that throws people off. Dogs in Yuan, maggot cheese in Sardinia, undeveloped ducks or stewed frogs in the Philippines, and so on. So, I’m not going to knock this at all.

Tbf, I’ve read about this as a teen a long time ago (GQ) and was fascinated by the irony of having the guinea pig in a cartoony sketch on the wrapper while seeing their corpse through the plastic.

Pretty much this. It’s why I love it for my use case (microblogging journal that only I can see), but it’s definitely not for everyone else.

It’s why if your average influencer or news consumer wants a Twitter alternative, it’s likely Threads or perhaps BlueSky, not Mastodon.

TIL In the Hot Coffee lawsuit against McDonalds,punitive damages were given due to McDonalds intentionally overheating coffee to save money on refills (www.poolelg.com)

During the trial it was revealed that McDonald’s knew that heating their coffee to this temperature would be dangerous, but they did it anyways because it would save them money. When you serve coffee that is too hot to drink, it will take much longer for a person to drink their coffee, which means that McDonald’s will not...

I must say, these are the types of replies I’d like to see. It allows me to re-examine everything on the incident from another side and possibly form a better take.

Beethoven's 2nd warned us about Danny Masterson more than 20 years ago (lemmy.world)

In light of Danny Masterson being sentenced to 30 years for rapes, it should be noted that back in 1993, the cult sensation — Beethoven’s 2nd — already warned us about him. This predates (no pun intended) the Conan clip making the rounds of late by more than a decade....

Lemmy seriously needs kindergarten-level SEO. None of the communities barely show up on Google.

I watch highlights on YouTube when uploaded. But I stopped watching late night shows a long time ago… ever since Conan left NY. Although that coincides with me finding work and never having the time to watch live (which is around 1pm here). Then streaming became a thing shortly after that and we had to cut cord.

I re-watched Beethoven’s 2nd a few weeks ago and everything made sense now.

Charles Grodin was always suspicious of Danny Masterson’s character right from the start, up until the very end. Danny also has a weird reaction when Ryce says she was looking for Taylor, knowing his opportunity to introduce her to Scientology was blown.

All-Star brought attention to Mystery Men, which is a criminally underrated movie. So, that’s another reason to like that song.

Iron Man 3.

Led us to believe Ben Kingsley was going to be a badass villain only to be revealed that he was an actor.

decadentrebel ,
@decadentrebel@lemmy.world avatar

Exactly. I remember seeing Liar Liar and Jim Carrey’s reaction when the kids were taken away by his client was top-tier drama. And just his line delivery and malleability were signs of great acting, regardless if it’s offen “wasted” in comedy.

I haven’t seen it in full, but I do remember it creating a bit of controversy with the cookie dongs and kids. Some critics didn’t find it funny at all.

Not really cancelation per se, but some of my favorite shows came back from the writer’s strike in 2007-08 pretty poorly.

Sarah Connor Chronicles was axed shortly after they went back on air. Chuck’s post-strike material was S3 and beyond, and that’s when it started to jump the shark for me. Prison Break S4 was exceptionally bad, even by PB standards.

Dexter did have the Trinity Killer, which was the best season and antagonist by far.

The Wire.

I downloaded the entire series in 2010, hoping I could binge-watch it while I’m still on night shift. Couldn’t get myself to finish the slow boring pilot, set it aside, and forgot about it completely.

More than 10 years later, I see it on HBO Max remastered. Managed to survive EP1, and quickly after that, I couldn’t wait to watch every other episode.

I’ve always said the best shows are the ones wherein you can name every character to even the smallest one and know why they stuck with you. The Wire is one of those and remains my favorite of all time.

In my country, 401(k) is rare. My wife’s company is one of the few that offers it, and it’s way better than the government pension my dad is getting as a retiree, which is like less than $200 a month.

Pretty cool, although if you have a Steam Deck, you can easily chuck them in there along with several other retro console titles. It was through SD I was finally able to play Rule of Rose and Haunting Ground since I missed out on them.

Not my oldest Android phone (that would be the Galaxy Spica back in 2010), but this is my oldest existing screenshot taken from a Note III just a couple of years after that.

If you’re wondering how come I have a full day of battery left despite it being down to 40%, I’m using a Zerolemon battery case. I believe this is the last Note iteration that allows removable batteries.

The long battery life allowed me to last in the mountains for a day or two without charging. There weren’t any power banks back then, or at least not anything reliable.

The Fugitive‘s 30th anniversary: ‘I Didn’t Kill My Wife!’ — An Oral History of ‘The Fugitive’ (www.rollingstone.com)

There was no finished script or even an ending and a key cast member became fatally ill during the production. Three decades after the release of the landmark Hollywood thriller, the cast and crew look back at the film's chaotic creation and reflect on the legacy of the instant classic that almost fell apart

'Barbie' makes history with $1 billion at the box office (www.cnn.com)

“Barbie” has answered the billion-dollar question with a resounding “yes.” Barely three weeks into its run, writer-director Greta Gerwig’s blockbuster has raked in an astounding $1.03 billion at the global box office, according to official Warner Bros. estimates. This makes Gerwig the first solo female director with a...

@decadentrebel@lemmy.world avatar

I’m honestly not surprised. It’s one of those rare movies that has mass appeal (which guarantees it at least half a billion) and also a surprisingly good story that had critics and audiences raving about it.

I was only forced to watch it because I didn’t want to wait in the mall that long for Oppenheimer to start while the wife finishes Barbie. I haven’t been more satisfied and entertained by a blind watch since… Burning.

“Alright, pussy, pussy, pussy! Come on in Pussy lovers!

Here at Lemmy we’re slashing pussy in half! Give us an offer on our vast selection of pussy, this is a pussy blow out! Alright, we got white pussy, black pussy, Spanish pussy, yellow pussy. We got hot pussy, cold pussy. We got wet pussy. We got smelly pussy. We got hairy pussy, bloody pussy. We got snapping pussy. We got silk pussy, velvet pussy, naugahyde pussy. We even got horse pussy, dog pussy, chicken pussy.

C’mon, you want pussy, come on in Pussy Lovers! If we don’t got it, you don’t want it! Come on in Pussy lovers!”

The creator of Pixelfed announced an upcoming encrypted messenger for the fediverse that will work across the fediverse (mastodon.social)

It will be open source, end to end encrypted using Signal’s double ratchet encryption protocol, and he plans to make it easy for fediverse platforms to integrate it. The beta will release later this month....

With all this talk about sync's pricing...

I think now is a great time to remind everyone, like sync’s developer, Lemmy’s developers need to be paid too! The amount of time all the devs put into making lemmy exist, in my opinion, should be worth some of your money. If you can afford it, donating to the people who develop lemmy and/or the people keeping your home...

decadentrebel ,
@decadentrebel@lemmy.world avatar

It is. The Lemmy instance owners and the devs aren’t even making a dime off the platform.

That said, the decision to pay is still ultimately up to the user. If you feel it’s too pricey, then there’s Liftoff, which is a perfectly fine app in itself. Others are okay with it or even better if regional pricing is launched.

decadentrebel ,
@decadentrebel@lemmy.world avatar

I had no idea Liftoff also works with iOS!
