  • Ah shi- that's the one I was missing. New account who dis and all. Thank you lol

  • I would also like more pervy anime.

    Guys, am I doing Lemmy wrong?

  • I'm already subscribed there :)

  • I wish I saw that much Star Trek content.

  • Watching Lower Decks before DS9 and ENT is a bold move. ;)

  • You're not notified on Bluesky but since the information is public, there are services that let you look up if you're on a list (clearsky.app is the most popular one - it might be the only one for now? idklol).

  • I only know Vending Machine lore from Hollywood because they're a lot rarer where I'm from so in my head "vending machine = shake" checks out.

  • I figured as much but thank you for confirming.

  • GG. There were plenty credible reports of people who did run into trouble back then that I didn't want to risk it.

  • Germany. We have some very strict laws about that sort of thing, file sharing is of the devil.

  • Because they too are members of that community, they too grew up there. Not trying to excuse their inaction, but it all fits the bigger picture.

  • I was caught torrenting The Walking Dead season 2, shortly after it came out. Would've had to pay an enormous sum that I don't remember. Fortunately, there are lawyers who can help first time offenders in these situations so I only had to pay 180€ lawyer's fee and promise not to do it again.

    I hadn't even watched the stupid season yet and still haven't.

  • English is missing quite a few grammatical features that are necessary for understanding of a German sentence. The genderedness (lolwat is that a word?) nouns helps recognise references, as does declination declension of nouns. German (as presumably other languages do) also uses a LOT more commas than English to structure sentences. So if you know what to look for, it can be very easy to parse even a complicated German sentence because everything has a signal attached telling you what it's doing in that sentence.

    Obviously language can work perfectly fine without those features or English wouldn't exist. Still, there are frequently sentences in English that would have to be reworded quite heavily to lose their ambiguity, such as when there are several "it"s referenced and you have to take half a second to figure out which one is which. That's when I do sometimes miss my native language's features - but it's also when native English speakers struggle.

    Edit: declination vs declension. Go away, I just woke up lol

  • As soon as individual victims dare to report individual perpetrators to the police. In this tiny, tight-knit island community. Where everyone knows everyone.

  • To answer that, I'd have to know what that would even entail. Our constitution does not have "martial law", we have a vaguely similar thing where it depends entirely on the circumstances what it entails and that has never been invoked.

  • Must Human males now compete with Klingons too for the elusive female of their own species? Where will it end?! /j

  • What do pixels sound like?

  • I hate that this would work on me. I'm also stingy as fuck which comes in handy here but I can absolutely hear myself go "aww" at a stupid single banana.
