Leverage was/is a pretty ridiculous show sometimes (it’s basically just Ocean’s Five as a series), but I still enjoyed it far more than Dexter

I want my washing machine to notify my phone when a cycle completes… But maybe not quite that much

How many bloods should a healthy man have?

Anya could talk to me about anything and I would listen

You end up with echo chambers by blocking people and communities you don’t like.

Downvoted content is not only still visible, half the sorting options ignore it.

Probably Monty Python’s Life of Brian

I was one of those Holy Grail kids, I loved the movie and memorized the lines. Wanting more, I looked up other Monty Python works

I was in 7th grade or something, raised in a very religious home. I was not expecting what Life of Brian was, and I know I wasn’t old enough to understand all of the jokes they made

Hilarious movie

North America. Is there a pattern of difference?

No I’m in my 40s

Zero issues, everything works exactly as I expect

Not to say no issues exist, but I have encountered none, and that is data

This is what I’ve been saying. I think it should go even further and give admins a default block list of users.

A lot of folks talk about how Lemmy became useable after they spent hours (or sometimes a month) blocking the right communities and users, but most social media users don’t want to work that hard, they just want to start doomscrolling.

Well in Rain Man, he counted 246 toothpicks (“82, 82, 82.”) out of 250

You cannot be serious

There are very few situations where a dead man’s switch would have helped these whistleblowers.

Once they have gone public and are at risk of being “suicided” they should have already released everything they knew. Sitting on it after already going public in any way only helps if the goal is to blackmail or extort the company, rather than to expose the company or protect others.

A lot of people have latched onto the idea of a dead man’s switch (and I get it, technical solutions are fun to create), but the only part of the scenario it would help is before the whistleblower goes public, while they are still gathering information and haven’t yet been discovered by the company. Even then, it wouldn’t protect them from being killed, it would only ensure that the partial work is released in case they were discovered and prevented from finishing it.

The Tick.

I really enjoyed the comic book hero shows, and The Tick and Freakazoid were great fun to watch as parodies of the genre.

I was so happy to see The Tick get a couple of seasons as an Amazon show.

I avoid eye contact and hope I didn’t disrupt his day

“The Good Place” suggested that what you have done is less important than what you are currently doing to improve as a person.

You may never erase the your moral failings from the past, but as long as you are still trying to be better, that’s what matters.

Sounds like Snakes on a Plane to me. That’s precisely what I found fun about that ridiculous film

I’m my experience the scaled sort just has the same problem only the opposite. You end up with a feed full of mostly brand new posts in empty communities.

Either a dozen posts by a moderator of one community, or a single user posting the same thing to a dozen vaguely related communities.

A mild headache is not even an inconvenience in my experience, so “suffer through it” is hyperbolic. As I said, they are most often caused by not drinking enough water, and drinking more water will usually resolve it anyway. If you want to drink tea instead of water, it’s basically the same results, but it’s the hydration that makes the difference.

If it is more than a mild headache and actually bothering me, then I’ll go for a proper pain relief medication. I keep that on hand for that reason.

Well I just suffer through it if it’s just a little headache. I’d rather not use any medication unless it’s actually hindering my ability to be productive.

The majority of the time, a headache like that is caused by not drinking enough water in the first place, and that’s always a better place to start
