I like city building games and puzzles. I like other things as well, but that's not important right now.

My fediverse philosophy is that we should avoid emulating the bad and crude aspects of reddit - don't abuse the downvote feature, don't chase 'karma' and don't overuse the word "porn" in subreddit names.

  • What is your favorite quote, proverb, or piece of wisdom?

  • At one time, a man seeing a female's naked knee was equivalent to a man seeing a female's breast today.

    Jump

  • Yeah, i'd say it was only true "at one time, for some people." e.g the upper class in 1800s britain and america.

    I think the historical norm can be derived as follows:

    Long ago, say medieval times, people probably took off their clothes more often and nudity was more common. People bathed in rivers in public in those days, they needed to work in water sometimes (hence would show knees from hoisting up clothes) and probably chose to take their thick clothes off during sunny harvest days.

    Historic accounts actually say that women would go shirtless, i.e boobs literally out, to relieve from heat during outdoor labour - this was the case in some parts of japan in the very early 1900s and some parts of Britain in 1800s. In Japan towns women went fishing together, in britain it would have been farming groups if i remember correctly.

    The exception to this historical reality is localised to industrial-era elite, who preferred to button up tightly and show absolutely no skin (except for face). I suppose it might also be the case for men living in countries where burqas and headscarves are the norm for women, but those countries are still the same way today.

  • I wish my life didn't throw so many hard curves at me. Sometimes I feel like i'm endlessly bouncing around, and it's not always fulfilling.

    And then when life stops being hard it just feels... Too dry? It irritates me.

  • yes

  • Oh it seems that the great minds of Lemmy think alike

  • Looking for YouTube channel recommendations that do video essays on religions, spiritually and mythology etc .... in an empathic and appreciative way.

  • Why is privacy important? Be specific.

    Jump

  • Because the more a stranger knows about you the more tempted they are to use that information against you - even if their intentions are pure at first.

  • Better be a sex offender registry on those damn space ships

  • Yeah this is devastating news for UFO enthusiasts. Even the craziest alien conspiracist probably understands when Trump is wriggling like an eel

  • What books have a lot of useful information should I get? (I mean like a Wikipedia thing with vast knowledge, but non-electronic.)

    Jump

  • Engineering textbooks and presumably chemistry and medical textbooks. But you then have to be careful to select one that's not massively confusing and a slog to read

  • Indie Animation

  • Yay a non porn promo!

    Meta: Can you please not announce every single porn community you create

    Jump

  • Nah it's more than thst. Some of us want to see nsfw stuff occasionally but not have our feed filled up with shout-outs to various niche porn communities.

    Jump

  • They could and should just make their own "NEW COMMUNITIES" community/ meta community for discussion around the whole instance

  • If real life loaded like a video game did, what would the loading screen tips be?

    • Please maintain 8 hours of sleep every night to help reduce server lag

  • If real life loaded like a video game did, what would the loading screen tips be?

    Jump

  • Got to think more meta than that. NordVPN and Raid ShadowLegends are advertised within the game world already - the loading screen would advertise DLC content thst elevates gameplay.

    For example:

    • Tired of the grind? Purchase the Silver Spoon DLC and choose which household you're born to!
    • Customise your character's base mental health stats with the Genetics DLC!

    • "Never kill yourself."
    • "Don't wipe forwards on your butt"

  • learning to play an instrument on your own, but how/what?

    Jump

  • A lot of people seem to learn guitar by themselves or mostly intuitively, i imagine piano would work well but don't use those dumb expensive "teach yourself an instrument online" courses. There will be good material online but it will be free :)

    Also tho.... consider getting paid lessons. Might be more fun than you think and you can pick up a really niche instrument and get paid to play it
