Steve, in Which YouTuber still creates high-quality videos to this day?

If you like guns, (I know, this is lemmy, but there must be a few of you) Demolition Ranch, Kentucky Ballistics, Edwin Sarkisian.

owen,

I would add Forgotten Weapons to this list. He does excellent teardowns and tests, plus a lot of great history and trivia.

Buffaloaf,

The Kentucky Ballistics guy (I forget his name) damn near died when his 50 cal exploded, then he came back and was like “so that sucked. Anyways, I found this even bigger gun that I’m going to shoot now”

To add to the list. These guys are more longer videos about history and mechanics.

Jarix, in What songs do you like that are in a language which you don't speak?

Ave Maria

brunogron, in Out of all the cars you've owned, which one holds a special place in your heart as the absolute favourite.

Non-practical, 2010 Ford Focus RS Mk2, had to sell it when I got a bonus family and started to commute 300 km almost every day.

Practical, 2018 Volvo V90 CC, perfect in every way, except that the rear lights had to be replaced once a year, and one of the buttons on the steering wheel every second year.

Clusterfck,

First car I bought for myself in college was a 2016 Volvo S60 with 110,000 miles on it after the car my parents got me threw the timing belt on the way to class. It’s tiny as hell, but I love that car. Now, after a few years, we’re pushing 200,000 miles and the only thing it ever needed besides regular maintenance is an oil pan gasket. I have a kid now and I can’t even fit a car seat in the back seat without moving the front seat all the way forward. I know I have to get rid of it soon and it breaks my heart.

OneCardboardBox, in Have you ever seen coal burn? If yes, why?

As a child, Easter holiday in a cottage in Cornwall. It had a coal fireplace.

inconel, in What songs do you like that are in a language which you don't speak?

Shchedryk (Ukranian original version of Carol of the Bells) comes to mind. Folk rhymes better with their original tongue in general

Spaceballstheusername, in Edit: (What do you call this dish?)

No this is the most insane thing my wife calls them pigs in a blanket. I told her that’s not what it’s called that’s something else but she refuses and is trying to have our children call it that as well. I’ve married a psycho.

qarbone,

It’s not too late. If you crack enough eggs on her head, you might be able to scramble her brains and hard reset her.

AVincentInSpace, (edited )

Aren’t pigs in a blanket when you wrap a sausage in a pancake? Hence, you know, pigs?

Bacon, isn’t it?

Ehoalid,

Our use of that term is a hot dog wrapped in biscuit, similar idea.

spittingimage, in Lemmy, is there a treasured piece of content that you stop yourself from going back to "too often" so as to not dilute it?
@spittingimage@lemmy.world avatar

The book Bridge of Birds by Barry Hughart. Maybe everyone has a book that’s just perfect for them. This one is mine.

hyperactive, in What is your unpopular flim opinion

Off topic but TIL there’s no sort by controversial option on Lemmy. :(

The true way to get the unpopular opinions

Chastity2323,

There is on Voyager github.com/aeharding/voyager

zzzz, in If reality wasn't wholly rational, could one ever come to terms with it, or would one rationalize it instead?

In fact, reality is not apparently basically rational. Why does anything exist at all? Surely, the trivial solution would be a simpler state of affairs. Why is existence not nothing forever? Why there exists anything instead of nothing (let alone you and me, in particular) does not stand to reason.

Kolanaki, (edited ) in Best way to get out of a Timeshare?

Best way to get out of a Timeshare?

Have you tried the door?

kaffiene, in Am I the only one getting agitated by the word AI?

It’s an establish term in the field since the1950s.

Evrala, in What are you drinking tonight, and is it what you really want to be drinking?

I’m drinking cheap matcha, I wish I was drinking nice matcha.

jantin, in What is the most unusual spirit you have in your home bar?

Icelandic lichen liquor. Tastes like forest.

stoy,

Is this what you are talking about?

reykjavikspirits.is/…/fjallagrasa-icelandic-schna…

Seems interesting

Mamertine,

OMG that’s so weird, I need that.

stoy,

I will see if I can get it myself, sounds very interesting

Mamertine,

If you find it, please let me know. I looked around and struck out. It sounds so odd, is like to try it. Perhaps bring it camping to compare its flavor to a forest’s!

stoy,

I live in Sweden, so our main source of alcohol is the government monopoly Systembolaget, now, I can order alcohol throughout the EU with no customs or any restrictions (as far as I know), but i have no clue where to start, however, Systembolaget are famous for being able to bring in stuff from all over the world on special order, so I’ll probably go through there, but I will keep my eyes open on other sites as I find them.

We could create a community for odd spirits, both for finding and asking about odd spirits…

TheHiddenSpirit could be a decent name…

@khannie@lemmy.world avatar

In a good way?

voracitude,

This is the question. “It tastes like the forest: still, slightly sweet air, golden sunlight filtered through emerald leaves, a crystal brook babbling just out of sight” versus “It tastes like the forest. Dirt, rotting undergrowth, and animal shit”.

still, slightly sweet air, golden sunlight filtered through emerald leaves, a crystal brook babbling just out of sight

Honestly, you should write poetry.

voracitude,

Thank you, that’s very kind! However as you can see, half my work isn’t even worth quoting 😋

dditty, in What songs do you like that are in a language which you don't speak?

Tunak Tunak Tun will forever be a banger.

HappycamperNZ, in What's a movie you don't really watch but your damn proud to have on your shelf?
