Weebette. Our first robot was Weebo, Weebette is her daughter. Yes, we like Flubber.

oxjox, in What's a food you love, that isn't worth making from scratch?
@oxjox@lemmy.ml avatar

Brunch. I’m too hungover to be cooking anything.

Definitely lots of food out there I’m not cooking from scratch but any “food I love” is probably something I’m cooking from scratch to begin with.

When I grew up we had a saying that translate to something like " it was so messy after the eating we could just let the chickens inn to clean up around the dinner table "(chickens are never a clean option). So I named it robot chicken, RELEAS THE CHICKEN!

peto, in You have to spend the rest of your life in a micronation. Which do you choose?

Are there any good ones? Am I allowed to launch a coup?

nodsocket,

You can launch a coup.

SgtAStrawberry,

Well Jämtland is Jämtland, but there is nothing wrong with that one. Really nice place, the biggest town is lovely, if you don’t like the city ther is plenty of smaller towns, villages and cabins in the woods. They even have there own famous lake monster.

I would recommend against the coup, but if you gave your mind set you can probably find some new friends there to help you.

bionicjoey, in What is your favorite time travel movie or show?

Russian Doll is a pretty good one

noroute,

Never watched it what is it about?

bionicjoey,

It’s a time loop story like Groundhog Day

taiyang,

With stairs. And dying.

AwwTopsy,

The stairs are the best part!

bionicjoey,

Oh God, not the stairs!

Archer,

I winced every single time

LillyPip, in What is your favorite time travel movie or show?

Time Trap (2017). It’s a bit campy and a fun watch.

Archer,

I hate that the end of the movie is the beginning of a much more interesting movie! I wanna see it!

Kombi, like the VW bus

MrMobius, (edited ) in What search engine do you recommend that isn't Google or Bing?

I’ve been using qwant for a few weeks and it gives me quite satisfying and accurate results. Before I had been using ecosia for years but the results can be lackluster sometimes. Especially when you search very specific “niche” things (like obscure Linux problems troubleshooting). But I’m still looking for a browser which let’s you pick multiple languages for results.

jj4211, in What's the consensus on swearing here

For me, it’s just uninteresting and pointless, and detracts from when I might use them for emphasis, if they are used all the time.

I also find a lot of popular media leans on vulgar as the entire end game. Like a comedy where the only attempt at being funny is saying words you’re not “supposed” to stay. Use your language as you wish, but you better have something more to bring to the table than a willingness to say “dirty” words.

Admittedly, it’s not as much a thing as it used to be. With media not caring much about language anymore, it stopped even in theory being funny by itself, but there was a time in the 80s and 90s where a number of personalities were nothing but swearing in contexts they weren’t “supposed” to, and it was so boring.

So that carries forward to why I don’t bother to swear, because I found it so unimaginative then and that stuck with me.

some_guy, in What do you like about socialism?

The concept of helping people.

Buy citizenship out of the US and build a better country abroad with your foreign investment. Not much to do with the way things are going, but you can make Ireland or Monténégro a better place.

funnystuff97, in What word do you always forget?

I have no idea why, but convention. And not a thing where nerds like me gather to dork out about something, but a scientific standard. Whenever I’m explaining something, and someone asks why it operates that way, I’m always like, “it’s that way by… uh… y’know, it’s always been that way.” No clue why I always blank on that word specifically.

I was attempting for buggy but it insists on exterminate
