I wouldn’t call an 8% drop “downfall”. I think it will shrink and grow over time, but I expect the growth pattern will be in waves - migrations of people coming in response to changes in Reddit or other causes, followed by periods of retraction as some people lose interest or decide it’s not for them.

From my feeling, it seems pretty steady at the moment. I wouldn’t mind if it got bigger, especially to make some more niche communities possible. But I’m not worried about it.

Seems like it’s not showing up correctly when federating to other instances. Or maybe a version issue.

Years ago, I had to do customer service training for a job, and one thing they said is to always say “you’re welcome” instead of “no problem”, because some people think “no problem” is rude. But I think it’s a generational thing, and it’s kind of the opposite with younger folks.

We can’t lick sodium or chlorine, but combine them and you get something we literally make blocks of for the purpose of licking. What a world!

is there a legal way to consume alcohol bought at a store, outside of a home, hotel room, etc.?

I’m thinking in the U.S. and Canada. For example, if you’re on vacation, you’ve checked out of your hotel room and have several hours until your flight, and you have some cans of beer left over. I know you could sneakily drink them in a park or something, but I’m just curious if there’s any way to do it that’s legal.

Needing a car to get there is the American part.

Is the season after the reboot (after season 7) worth watching ?

Do they still have many highly intelligent and over qualified people working on it to make wacky science plots/theories/jokes ? How good is the show nowadys anyway ? Does it still hold that standard ? Been a hot minute since i last watched also i am talking about hulu reboot to avoid future confusion as one person asked me in...

The season numbers are always confusing. Do you mean the Comedy Central reboot (starting with Rebirth), or the Hulu one (The Impossible Steram)?

I thought the CC reboot was solid and had some great episodes. As for the Hulu one, I watched the first two and gave up on it.

I think you were right, it does exist, but Wikipedia doesn’t have a picture of one they can legally use. For example I found this:

To think I found out about it this way - in a shitposting community that regularly posts absurd lies.

I complain but it was still a great experience :)

Yeah, it feels better to have been with a bunch of people who had the same experience. And it was still cool.

I think the best solution to this is a way to migrate an account to another instance, which I’ve heard is in the works.

I couldn’t say why it got me so hooked. I like roguelikes/rogue-lites as well as deckbuilders, and I think it hits a really good balance of the things that make them fun - challenge, randomness, a variety of strategies that can make different runs feel very different. Also good achievements and unlockables.

While the Spike Jonze film Her (2013) explored a romance between a man and his virtual personal assistant, 10 years earlier, the movie Demolition Man looked at how technology could play a role in sexual relationships. In an iconic scene, a character played by Arnold Schwarzenegger has virtual sex with Sandra Bullock.

Was this article written by AI? Arnold Schwarzenegger wasn’t in Demolition Man, and 1993 was not ten years before 2013.

I will miss the mistakes they made in my favor. Once I bought like $50 worth of groceries, and they just never charged me for it.
