I still find it absolutely hilarious that I know you can fit an entire N64 in the pockets of JNCO jeans. Absolutely legendary pants.

The StarCraft FPS.

I’m still mad about it.

The high five thing always fucks me up. Mostly because I’ll see it in movies about WW2 and other historical things that it shouldn’t be in and I always have to say something lol.

It’s been a slow decline since they hit that world record pit stop and then Merc cried about it and had the rules changed. Ever since then Redbull has just been getting slowly worse with the pit stops. Today was particularly egregious.

It sounds weird as a redbull fan, but I was just happy both of them ended up on the points it was such a disaster filled race for them. Car seemed to just be a shit box all weekend. Pit stop fuckery basically put both of them at the back. Just a weekend to learn from for us…

I listen to a bunch of movies critics riffing on movies. It’s called adum and pals.

it has a lot of volume changes but it’s been my main sleeping background for so long the screaming that occasionally comes up doesn’t wake me anymore.

Most of the people I’ve seen on Lemmy do not react particularly well whenever the conversation of it being an echo chamber or a bubble comes up. I would say that most are either blind to it are in denial about it at the very least.

See the difference between us is that because I never block anyone I might hear or see a perspective or idea I’ve never considered before and I might take stock of my current position and change. Whereas with your method you are cutting off that chance and then just locking in on your current stances assuming they are currently correct and will always be correct forever which I find to be an idiotic stance to have.

I can admit that all of my positions might not be perfect because I still haven’t thought about every single thing or learned every single thing there is to learn. It is illogical to assume that I already know everything and no longer need to consider anything else.

I don’t know about you but my political stances have changed over the years. Certain from a young kid to my teen years. And again from my teens to my young adult years. And yet again as I have gotten older. I am sure they will continue to shift and grow as I grow as a a person.

Isn’t that why most people are here at this point? I know the original Exodus started with the whole API thing but I think Lemmy is majority ex-reddit users who got banned in the last year or so. My ban came outta nowhere and they didn’t even tell me what rule I broke. When I appealed asking what rule I had broken they instantly denied it without clarifying what rule I had supposedly broken. I had been banned from a handful of random subs over the years for various stupid things but I had never ticked off any admin or anything. I’m not the only person who had an account with hundreds of thousands of karma that was almost as old as the site just randomly get thanos snapped either.

Yeah that whole situation was stupid.

I still cannot believe they legitimately think multiple death threats (even if they were ridiculous) aren’t as bad as my original “misogynistic” comment.

Most of the mods on Lemmy are a joke and a good majority of the users themselves are lost. It’s whatever.

Our only hope is that more users with varying options join over time and they simply get overwhelmed by people having normal ass opinions.

Or they double down and start banning people even sooner.

Only time will tell if Lemmy grows or they will drive into a slow death.

Yeah … I mean everyone is allowed to Taylor their experience however they want but I never block people because I never want to put myself into an echo chamber where I only ever see or hear opinions I already agree with.

Unfortunately no lol. Lemmy has a handful of stances that are “allowed” and if you stray from those you’re toast.

You can get banned from entire instances just because the mod of that instance saw you make a comment they didn’t like on a completely different instance and sub.

It’s fine though. Each instance can do whatever they want. I do think it inhibits growth and actual discussions from taking place though. If you ban everyone that thinks even slightly differently than you it just means you’re left with a bunch of people that all pretty much agree I everything. Not exactly a riveting conversation.

Is anyone truly surprised by this? I think we all knew they weren’t going to suddenly decide to add cylinders back into the equation.

In my limited experience with Lemmy I would say the problem here is worse, but different due to the whole instance and decentralized thing.

I definitely don’t think Lemmy has much ground to stand on in terms of looking down on reddit for the echo chamber they created.

The FDA will allow like a whole cockroach to get blended into a jar of peanut butter before they even give a shit.

If you live in a developed country with some sort of food standards you are probably going to live just fine eating 99.99% of the things you see in a daily basis.

As for restaurant workers making mistakes… Yeah. If you’re the type of person who gets repulsed by your own hair falling into your food maybe avoid eating out. I have pulled someone else’s hair out of my food and kept eating. Shit happens and I already paid for the food. It would have to be like a bloody bandaid or something for me to actually send back food.

Bro the heater was broken we were just conserving heat. Our socks were still on so it’s not gay.

Red Bull is gonna get lots more air tunnel time for 2026 by only having one driver do anything this year. Maybe this is 5d chess by red bull upper management. They make the car undrivable for anyone that isn’t at Maxs level of car control and machine like precision. So he can still probably do well and possibly win the drivers championship but then they get more time to test the 2026 car due to sliding backwards in the constructor’s over the year.

Genius.

Sorry I should have said he was surprised to be on pole but he didn’t seem remotely surprised about the lap record lol

I swear Verstappen is not human…

The guy sets a lap record and pulls that lap outta his ass and he doesn’t even seem remotely surprised. He’s happy, but he wasnt surprised lol
