cwagner, to asklemmy in How fluent do you think one have to be to be considered "bilingual"?

being fluent without visiting an English speaking country is quite an accomplishment.

It helps if at the age of ~16 you start consuming only English media (books, movies, TV-shows), and are in many English online communities ;)

I would also like to thank the people who laughed at me and my friend for having German MtG cards when we were 10 years old, that was one huge boost to my vocabulary :D

cwagner, to asklemmy in In which game did you spend the most hours?

Civ V: 2,444.5 hours, never played multiplayer, all but maybe 300h with communitas/vox populi

Runner up is Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous with almost 2000 hours

cwagner, (edited ) to asklemmy in Downvotes = “I disagree” or “this is bad and you should feel bad”?

I see downvoting of comments for stuff that does not require mods, but is still people being assholes or something not belonging. I don’t vote enough on submissions to have an opinion there :D

edit: word order

cwagner, to asklemmy in What genres of music do Lemmites enjoy?

Folk, Folk-Rock, Folk-Metal, Classical, Progressive Death Metal, Grindcore, Melodic Black Metal with Death influences, Industrial Metal, Industrial Rock

Also, quite some metal outside those genres, but those would be the main ones. Oh, and some almost metal K-Pop (e.g. Dreamcatcher) via my wife ;)

I run away from Rap, RnB, most electronic music (Some few exceptions, and I also like the freaky stuff like Gabber and faster up to speedcore or terrorcore) unless it’s mixed with metal.

cwagner, to asklemmy in What's the worst company ever. Period.

Hah, poor guy, because I never heard of him before, and he was mentioned in the same breath as Hitler, I thought he has to be some pretty shady dude, but otherwise ignored that part :D

cwagner, to asklemmy in Should an altruistic organ donor be allowed to restrict their donation to a specific group of people? (e.g. women, gingers)

I would.

cwagner, to asklemmy in What's the benefit of using Kbin over Lemmy?

It mostly is, just not 100% ;)

cwagner, to asklemmy in What's the benefit of using Kbin over Lemmy?

connect to the same user

What?

And no, kbin and Lemmy both federate with each other, but are otherwise different apps, so you can’t use the same mobile app for both unless it explicitly supports both.

cwagner, to asklemmy in What is Lemmy's Favorite Beverage? [Ranked-Choice Poll]

The order is not the same, but my 5 choices match the top 5. Now I’m sad. Mainstream and sad.

cwagner, to asklemmy in Have you had any bad experiences with people on Lemmy?

Not hugely, I think. A lot of it was actual comments.

But seeing as I’m on my own single-user instance, I might disable them at some point just to see ;)

cwagner, to asklemmy in What's your favorite restaurant chain?

Technically, Mugg & Bean from South Africa. But that’s the chain they used to be, they changed their menu in major ways at some point between 2019 and 2023, and now it sucks :(

cwagner, to asklemmy in Should an altruistic organ donor be allowed to restrict their donation to a specific group of people? (e.g. women, gingers)

No, because it’s not them any more. It’s just remains. I still respect them the same way as before, the remains simply have no real relation.

cwagner, to asklemmy in Should an altruistic organ donor be allowed to restrict their donation to a specific group of people? (e.g. women, gingers)

Why shouldn’t people be able to opt out? I

Because you’ll be dead.

cwagner, to asklemmy in How fluent do you think one have to be to be considered "bilingual"?

It was clear what you meant. But while this might be used in very rare cases like indistinguishable, it almost never is. If it’s not distinguishable, you can’t get stronger ;)

cwagner, to asklemmy in What is the least SEO-fucked search engine?

Thing is, they have to pay Google/Bing (they use their APIs in addition to smaller indexes) for every search, so there is only so much elasticity.

My monthly search usage is 700-800, which means I’m comfortably in the mid-tier plan and pay $10/month.
