It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

Such a hilarious show. I love how ridiculous it is.

spin, in What kinds of things from reddit would you like to see Lemmy avoid as the user base grows?

The power that the admins have. While most subreddit bans were justified, in my opinion, it just felt really off for them to have so much power.

mcc,

Here admin has even more power, except it is limited to their own instance. So it is more on the user to be prepared. You don’t want to be too attached to your data on a single instance. The instance might be abandoned, down, gone; the admin might go crazy. And the solution isn’t to have the admin be more reasonable. The solution is to hedge your bets on multiple instances and multiple communities.

mediocre_magi, in How do you cheer yourself up after a rough day? Or a rough year?

Stereotypical answer but I like to lift weights. Really any outlet that requires 100% mental focus is what helps me most.When I lift weights there is just me and the weight.No bad thoughts. You can’t lift bad thoughts.

Any BBC production of Jane Austen’s novels.

lovelymalrin,

The 1995 pride and prejudice is just chefs kiss!

Shelves in a closet, happy thought indeed.

I use a yubico hardware key, for all of my TOTP and bitwarding password manager and my Google Voice for the 2FA

@MelancholikhPatata@kbin.social avatar

I like putting vaseline on my lips overnight (it's best to apply it on damp lips)

200ok,

The damp part is key. It can lock in moisture, but can’t add any on its own.

In the theater? Boogie Nights.

My friend and I didn’t know a goddamn thing about Paul Thomas Anderson when we went to the premiere. All we knew was that Heather Graham got naked in this movie about porn stars. We’d both had massive crushes on Heather ever since License to Drive… A crush which was only strengthened by her appearance in Swingers.

It turned out that the great nudity was only a bonus to what ended up being an amazing film with brilliant performances from everyone… INCLUDING Marky Mark. My friend and I ended up going to see Boogie Nights on the big screen close to 20 times. It helped that I had just gotten a job as an usher at a theater when the movie got it’s second run, so we could see it for free. It also became a point of local pride since PTA was North East Ohio television royalty, and my friend and I wanted to follow in his footsteps

ScrivenerX,

For me, it was, sadly, Final Fantasy Spirits Within.

I don’t like the movie, but when it was in theaters every one of my friends wanted to see it, and schedules didn’t line up. Buddy is in town for 3 days “hey let’s see a movie!” Every time it ended up being that damn movie.

I ended up seeing it in the theaters 10 times.

lingh0e,

That’s actually a great movie, and it’s probably one of my most watched DVDs.

It’s some of the best early mo-cap cgi in cinema history. Photorealistic without diving into the uncanny valley.

And storyline is very engaging. It hits poignant notes about pacifism, environmentalism and reincarnation without coming off as preachy or condescending.

diskmaster23,

The lady that was having sex with everyone at the party was the oddest thing. That was totally not a healthy relationship.

lingh0e,

That was the point.

TheSaneWriter, in Advantages to selfhosting a Lemmy instance?
@TheSaneWriter@lemmy.thesanewriter.com avatar

I’m currently hosting a Lemmy instance, I started work on it Friday and finished getting it fully running today. It honestly depends on whether or not you want it to be public, as that will determine the amount of resources you put into it. For a personal instance, I think there are relatively few downsides, Lemmy is fairly light in terms of consumption and as long as you have dynamic DNS service you can fairly easily get it running on a home server. For a public instance, especially one hosted on the cloud like mine, it’s considerably more labor and a bit more expensive, but still worth it my opinion. So either way go for it, just be aware of your goals going into it.

EeeDawg101, in what's a good downvoting guideline to follow?

I only downvote if the comment is being rude, spam, insulting, or hateful. If it’s someone sharing their opinion about something, even if I and “everyone else” disagrees, it’s not worthy of my downvote. It makes me mad when legitimate thoughts that are relevant, but against the grain, get downvoted.

jo3shmoo, in What do you use Vaseline for?

I use it when casting my patients who have a partial hand amputation. It works great as a separator for casting agents and allows me to easily easily slip a cast off of them. It also helps prevent ripping out too too many hairs during the process.

FollyDolly, in What gaming console / platform do you prefer?
@FollyDolly@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve been a playstation fan, right up until this year when I moved to the Switch. I travel for work a lot and decided to move to a portable, durable game system. Loving it so far, and I was pleasantly surpised at the number of games available.

My only complaints are not being able to back saves up to an SD card, and the controllers are a touch smaller than I would like but overall I’m very happy.

AceFuzzLord,

Not being able to back up saves on an SD card is so annoying and just is just such a backwards thinking move if you ask me. I hate that about the switch. Makes me wish I had a hacked switch so I could back up my saves.

AceFuzzLord, (edited ) in What gaming console / platform do you prefer?

If we are talking strictly console, then the xbox360 is my all time favorite console and preferred console, especially since my absolute favorite controller goes to them as well.

Otherwise, PC is just more convenient for the fact I can use a 3rd party 360 controller and play console games via dedicated emulators or RetroArch cores.

I have a few other consoles, but my desktop and 360 are most definitely my picks for what I’d use if given the choice.

If I had a hacked switch and my computer had better specs to run pokemon violet at even close to 30 frames per second, you bet I’d just back up my games onto my desktop and play them on it using my 3rd party 360 controller.
