I don’t rewatch movies often, but in order of most rewatched: Gattaca, Sicario, Drive, Pulp fiction, Hamilton, Les Mis, China Town, 21/22 jump street, other guys, step brothers, the nice guy, the princess bride…
Giving you that sweet upvote for mentioning Gattacca. I don’t usually rewatch movies, but I’ve seen that one 5 or 10 times. Second on my list is The Princess Bride, but even that is at most 5 times, mostly introducing it to my kids or friends.
OMG I added princess bride, I’ve seen it at least 10+ times. I also added a bunch of comedies. It’s funny how many movies I’ve rewatched over and over but so many I have only seen once and will never rewatch.
I give you an upvote just because you say you don’t rewatch movies often, but then proceed to list your top 12 movies ordered by most rewatched :D Brilliant!
Might just be me but I kinda like how organic maps and quillpad look design-wise. Im a sucker for that material look (think thats whats it called afaik)
maybe pick a corporate sponsor/vendor you’d like to see and check out what events they have coming up? you would need to narrow down your scope to something more reasonably limited. siggraph? E3? IEEE?
The detoriation of the subreddits. Lots of subreddits, especially now, are not good moderated so very low effort posts, lots of reposts and toxic comments being rampant.
For me personally, I never saw too many powermod-driven issues on Reddit (not that they didn’t occur, just that I didn’t experience them in the communities in which I participated).
One solution was to create a fork; lots of “r/actual___” or “r/true___” communities were born this way. To Little8Lost’s point, I think this will be even easier on Lemmy.
I’ve been permanently banned from the League of Legends subreddit for saying a team that had caught Covid wouldn’t die because they’re young and vaccinated. In a post about them having caught Covid. And in response to someone calling it a fatal disease (which it can be for some, but really isn’t if you’re 20, vaccinated, and otherwise healthy).
Though dying may be lower risk for them people could still feel long standing effects from it. Though those are also less likely given they were vaccinated.
I looked up my exact quote, which isn’t perfect, but a permanent ban seems kind of crazy.
It’s not really lethal if you’re vaccinated, especially if you’re young.
I wouldn’t downplay long Covid. And if I had to do it again, I’d change some things. But saying that once in an appropriate thread seems pretty innocuous to me.
A lot of those community forks on Reddit were more related to the original communities growing too fast and then losing the original feeling than to powermods too (not all though).
Anyone have an example of an Android app that feels like this?
Personally I don’t see the appeal of adhering to an existing design system just to make it feel “native”. I’m using Voyager on Android and it’s not native-feeling at all since Voyager is very Apple-inspired, but that doesn’t feel weird/bad. Discord is another app I use every day (though not for Lemmy) and it’s certainly not designed to feel native on either Apple or Android.
It’s impossible here in any broad way. If an admin allowed it to go too far, they end up running off users, and possibly end up defederated if it gets really crazy.
There’s already duplicates of half the c/s out there, particularly among the reddit copies.
You might think that power admins could be the equivalent problem, but we’ve already seen problematic instances be defederated widely.
Pretty much every instance out there right now that has enough users to have power mods already has specific rules against going bonkers with moderation.
It’s a different system, a different culture, and the ultimate control is decentralized and distributed.
About the only people that could maybe upend that are the lemmy devs themselves, and it isn’t like lemmy is impossible to fork. I couldn’t do it, but there’s plenty of folks that can. And, let’s be real, those guys may be on the radical end of their political beliefs, but everything they’ve done so far points to them handling the project in a very socialist way. They could have forced the entire thing into an echo chamber instead of making it open source. They could have built in controls that would give them the ability to screw with instances remotely, but didn’t.
So, nah, power mods aren’t going to be a thing on lemmt any time soon. When it does happen, it’ll be on single instances and rapidly handled.
That does mean we need many instances, and always be creating new ones. We should never settle on one instance. There should always be alternative versions of each sub/community/magazine, just in case power mods become insane at one of them.
I like horror theme. So I’ve watched Ash vs Evil Dead, The Exorcist S01, The Haunting of Hill Twice twice so far. Out of these Ash vs Evil Dead was the best on the repeat run, so I may watch it again at a later time.
A lot of the punchlines are “ha ha, aren’t they weird?”, which hits totally different if you’re the sort of person who the character is an obvious caricature of. Doubly so if the weirdness in question is associated with some form of neurodivergence. For some people - myself included - a lot of the laughs in that show feel very much like they’re laughing at you, not with you. It’s only funny if you identify more with the people on the other side of the joke.
That’s an interesting take. I’m sure they didn’t mean to hurt ND people, even if they did end up doing that. I loved the jokes despite identifying with most of the “weird” characters
Jason’s Deli has yet to disappoint me. It is not high-end cuisine, but they serve good food with consistent quality. They also have enough variety that almost anyone can find something.
