  • Should this be the year we finally try voting for other candidates?

  • Now is primary time -- MANY elections have honestly decent looking people running under the Democratic ticket. Now is the time to replace the incumbents with people who give a shit

  • How far back in time can you understand English? This site goes back by centuries allowing you to test yourself.

    Jump

  • This was fun! Anyone know about the ſ character? How come in the 1600s it only sometimes seemed to take the place of s?

  • I'm Not Into Politics

    Jump

  • I'm also confused by this one, what is the last frame supposed to be.

  • The Boxer [AI]

    Jump

  • Not a rule I don't think, most communities in Lemmy are just against ai images off of principle (excessive water usage, takes work from artists, trained on stolen data, automates away a thing that makes us human)

  • Did you know that the Internet Archive has classic sci-fi radio dramas?

    Jump

  • I love x minus one! I listened to it as an audiobook forever ago, so cool that it's available for free now! One of my favorite was "Nightfall," based on an Isaac Asimov story

  • 20th Anniversary Poster for "V For Vendetta", returning to theaters November 5

    Jump

  • I liked the movie as a standalone thing, but my one big ick with the adaptation is them changing the core message. V is an anarchist, someone who thinks that order can exist without government. The word anarchy is never even mentioned in the movie, and the key takeaway in the film is that "governments should be afraid of their people, not the other way around," a message that still implies governments should exist.

  • Luigi Mangione will not face death penalty, judge rules

    Jump

  • Some lawyers made a video explaining that if the evidence was likely to have been found in a legal search anyways, it can usually still be admitted. I also ANAL

  • Drop your dopamine maxing trick.

    Jump

  • Lots of people mentioning high BPM music, I'm gonna drop where I got my username from: the 1970s funk band Parliament. While not high BPM, there's usually several instruments playing completely different melodies at the same time in a way that really scratches my ADHD brain. It's made me develop a theory that high musical throughput is the secret to ADHD musical enjoyment -- funk is the very wide pipe compared to the high pressure pipe that is high BPM.

  • How do you enjoy the sound of games?

    Jump

  • I stopped reading once you said "colloquially 'speakers'" I ain't got time to deal with this today

  • Please. I'm begging you

    Jump

  • Some of Sufjan Stevens' walk a fine line between those two

  • Piano man

    Jump

  • He's said in interviews that those were these people's real names. There was literally a real life dude named Davy who was in the Navy, is that the most unrealistic thing in the world?

  • What are some of the worst code you have seen in a production environment?

    Jump

  • Good chance that's more performant though, compilers can flatten for loops and you don't have to waste as much time creating new stack frames each time you recurse

  • What's your favourite story from history that is actually false or exaggerated?

    Jump

  • If you're talking about Judaism, the Torah never specifically mentions that they were building the pyramids, just that they were slaves in Egypt.

  • Not to get all religous but was not Jesus pissed for people making money in churches? Didn't he flip tables and everything? Then how do churches nowadays explain the collection plate?

    Jump

  • Specifically, he flipped the tables of money lenders and people selling stuff. Donating a tithe has been a part of Abrahamic religion since the Old Testament.

  • Ahh, my good friend water pressure.

    Jump

  • It's honestly fine in most places, I feel like the aversion to tap water is a taste preference / social taboo for 90% of people. Personally, the idea of filling up a water bottle in a bathroom feels gross to me, even though I'd happily use that same water to brush my teeth. I get that that's not really logical, but that doesn't change my gut instinct against it.

  • Ahh, my good friend water pressure.

    Jump

  • These are more public and usually filtered, most people wouldn't wanna fill their water bottles in the sink in a bathroom, so these are perfect for like, gyms or public schools

  • Ahh, my good friend water pressure.

    Jump

  • A lot of us do, but also that water's gotta come from somewhere.

  • Is it possible to run makecode arcade like a native on Linux ??

    Jump

  • Please just use one question mark you're making us all nervous

  • Half Life of Facts

    Jump

  • Apes being monkeys scientifically is the best news I've heard all year. It has been a banable offense in my home for years to correct someone for saying monkey when referring to gorillas, orangutans, etc., despite the fact that I genuinely thought scientists did not classify them as such.

    Monge.
