Try to start curating your block list. Whenever you see a post or a community that rubs you the wrong way/you aren’t interested in block it. Try to identify key words that help you blacklist the stuff you dont want to see.
The overwhelming Lemmy biases and echo chamber ideologies can be a little grating for sure. The longer your here the better curated your feed and the more you will find/contribute to nonpolitical communities which drastically improve the experience.
TFW you have so much brain-rot that cerebrospinal fluid starts leaking out and pooling under your mattress
Okay I think the term ‘foot-gun’ is supposed to evoke the image of someone loading a gun and pointing it at their own foot. I can’t help trying to picture a gun thats operated by a foot. Like a mech suit with a robot leg that also fires massive tank shattering shells when you do a roundhouse kick as a human operator. Or a veteran prosthetic leg that’s also a rifle when you kick it the right way.
The brain rot seeps just a little bit more every time I see the term ‘foot-gun’ please help.
I use Hemp, btw.
Been there done that. Got some good gigs as a mildew-man but eventually the mycelium grafting into my neurons was starting to cause motor function issues so I had to give that life up. Good times though it felt like microdosing on cube shrooms 24/7 overall I’d do it all again if I had the chance.
One of my more iconic acting roles you might recognize :
I dont really understand the whole lemmysilver thing but thanks for getting a fun community charity raffle set up. You didn’t need to get a prize pool together so going the extra mile out of pocket to do that for a community event is such a cool move.
Some other conenders are throwup/bile and snot/mucus
Our existance is an expression of art. Each of us is an individual being whos experiences in totalitt act as threads weaving together the tapestry of life. Every emotion expressed is paint, every action and consequence the brush.
The universe and everything born from it are machinations of creative whimsy and play. Being alive and choosing to continue your complicated existance is one of the highest forms of divine art.
The legal term for a lethal ‘oopsie’ is manslaughter I’m pretty sure.
Ive always found it a little strange that the law and insurance companies and human society in general is hyperfocused with finding a scapegoat to blame and persecute. People die sometimes just because of shit happening outside of anyone’s control but we’ve gotta dig for someone to pin blame on. Someones parachute didn’t work right that day? Its the parachute makers or the safety inspectors or the airplane owners who are to blame and not random unavoidable small chance of statistical failure rates. Gotta sue sue sue!

No there is no way to definitively say whether the image you are looking at is AI generated. There are many tells like hands, background objects bleeding into each other, lighting shadows, and a general ‘vibe check’ is often good enough. But there is no secret watermark or pattern unique to all stable diffusion generated images or anything like that.
I don’t care what PR rep says, its cost cutting one way or another. I hypothesize that gorilla glass had a 10 year contract with the phone manufactures and now that the contract is up some are choosing to cut out the moddle man in hopes of cheaper in-house solutions.

Would something like this interest you? Gemtext formatted to html is about as light weight as it gets. lots of automatic gemtext blog software on github that also formats and mirrors an html copy. Whenever a news page article gets rendered to gemtext through newswaffle it shrinks about 95-99% of the page size while keeping text intact. Let me know if you want some more information on gemini stuff.
System Operator. In non-nerd speak, it was the person who owned and ran the local public fourms website on their home computer. Lemmys instance admins are usually sysops for example, as they have root admin privleges or direct hardware access to the computer that the Lemmy instance software runs on.
This person is talking about an admin of a local fourm site early internet users used before centralized social media like MySpace and Facebook made Bulletin Board Systems (BBS) irrelevant.
The mouse utopia experiment but on humans. Ive always seen a subset of people who bemoan having to work or develop specialized skills to contribute to society. They want everything provided for them so their whole life can be leasure and comfort. A lot of socialism and communism selling points tend to be about having social services and things provided to you.
I’m interested to see the long term affects of people in a society where EVERYTHING is provided for you all the time. Every survival concern, sexual pleasure, every base urge, every whim and desire. For decades and decades and decades. Would it be a genuine good for society or would it be a monkeys paw situation?
Ive always hypothesized that any human society that attempts this will quickly erode into something similar to the mouse utopia.
Without any environmental pressures or meaningful challenges to overcome a large portion of the population without strong internal drives will become lethally/suicidally lazy, apathetic, and narcicistic
I suspect theres a large amount of people who simply have zero internal drives to apply themselves to doing a thing unlesd they have to. without the pressure of survival in either a physical or economic way they would simply sit on their ass, jerk off, play games, and maybe groom themselves, for decades until they die. Merit and overcoming challenge are important aspects of drive and dopamine generation. You deprive a person of those things they become lethargic. If that sentiment proves itself true it will be a hard pill to swallow for a lot of ideologies.
Unethical questions:
Statistically speaking, how many people would escelate their wants to socially taboo depravities? How quickly?
How long on average would it take for pleasure to become less meaningful in the face of instant gratification? Is there a logarithmic function that charts this?
How many people on average decide to begin self harm out to seek novel sensations? How long until onset?
How many people choose to live out a full life vs taking the placebo cyanide capsule and being removed from experiment? What would their reasonings be?

This meme was originally made for the !netsphere@sopuli.xyz community in an attempt to give a super niche manga artist fan place a little bit of engagement, I crossposted it here as an afterthought didn’t expect go be brigaded so hard by armchair memologist over the objective definition and location of the funny.
You’re absolutely correct that you need to have read the Blame! manga to get the reference on this one to really enjoy, even if you did its not that deep. Not too much thought went into it I was high as shit just pasting icons with the ‘linux chad big energy beam, windows/microsoft wojak bad guys its fired at’. Im personally okay with not every one of my memes being super accessible or community bangers I had fun making this and putting the template together. If you get the humor or like the template great. If you don’t, oh well downvote say ‘where funny’ and move on with your life cause im not wasting my time explaining what a graviational beam emitter is to snobs who don’t care in the first place.
