  • What's a sci-fi thing you feel is achievable with our current level of technology that you'd love to see become a thing?

    Jump

  • I think a moon colony was possible at minimum the mid 90's. I only think bureaucracy got in the way along with a very stunted space shuttle.

  • Is there an actor you can't stand? Do they have any exceptions?

    Jump

  • Will Ferrell is garbage unless he is doing voice work. The only live action of his I liked is the little bit in the LEGO movie where he was the dad.

  • Deleted

    Permanently Deleted

  • Henry Rollins in Johnny Mnemonic. Dude had to play a super nerdy doctor, basically a wet noodle. Let's cast a guy with a nine inch neck and could actually water his way through most of the bad guy minions.

  • What are the biases of Lemmy?

    Jump

  • All capitalism is bad, and any attempt to rein it in is failure before any attempts.

  • What is something you never understood the hype for?

    Jump

  • And anything else in that category of blind bag collectables. Can't do anything with it other than decorating a shelf, spend more money than it's worth to get a whole collection and end up with too many multiples you can't get rid of, and fake rarity.

  • Why is it often cheaper to buy new than repair old and how can repairing be encouraged on different levels of society?

    Jump

  • I can't speak for everything, but I can speak for e-waste. Especially printers. Those things are made cheap as hell, but constructed so you can't just get off the shelf parts. Being able to take the machine apart, find a replacement for whatever party is broken, install, and reassemble, you might have just bought a new printer for the same cost as the part. It's almost the same with laptops, phones/tablets, televisions, etc. Brand doesn't matter, it's all the same. Right to repair doesn't mean shit if you can't even make the repairs.

  • If I did have a tumor, I'd name it Marla.

    Jump

  • The point was to not worship these people. The point was driven better in the book, the movie was more anti-capitalist than the book.

  • If someone where to use the term "Adult Playground", what would you think it describes?

    Jump

  • Well, shit. Time for me to book a trip to Vegas.

  • If someone where to use the term "Adult Playground", what would you think it describes?

    Jump

  • Dude, I've been there and it is AWESOME!

  • Anyone else kind of disgusted at the waste created by going out to eat?

    Jump

  • If you think what you have to throw out as the consumer is wasteful, take a look in the kitchens of these places and tell me that it's any better. Most foods that have to be prepped in advance must be separated by single-use parchment/wax paper, then wrapped in plastic. When ready to use, use a glove for a few uses to take the prepped food out of the wrap, remove the paper separating it all, and chuck it out. It could have been prepped a week ago, or only two hours ago for fresh use, you still throw out all this paper and plastic wrapping. And then the cleaning, there is an inexcusable amount of paper towel used for various purposes, from drying your hands to wiping a counter/table, etc. And it's all thrown out. Some restaurants will use towels and kitchen rags, but then you have so many to wash and clean, it's usually done by a third-party service that has to drive to pick it all up, drive to a central laundry stop, do the laundry, and then drive it all back to get done again. And if you are in a place that has a washing machine in-house, it's a drop in the bucket in solving real waste issues.

  • I should probably clean out that decade's worth of bookmarks at some point...

    Jump

  • Pinterest. My boards are full of diy project ideas and recipes that I will never look at again, but I keep clicking and saving.

  • Those of you that have negative sentiments towards AI: What would you want to happen right now?

    Jump

  • I want disclosure. I want a tag or watermark to let people know that AI was used. I want to see these companies pay dues for the content used in the similar vein that we have to pay for higher learning. And we need to stop calling it AI as well.

  • Suffering from success

    Jump

  • I wished to be a young man surrounded by cheap pussy. Now I'm ten and have thirty stray cats.

  • What popular TV show did not do it for you and you quit watching?

    Jump

  • I didn't even think they got the humor right. Watching episodes without the laugh track shoes the jokes are just a group of bullies being bullies to each other.

  • Who is your oldest "hear me out" that you can remember from childhood?

    Jump

  • Dude, Cheetara from ThunderCats had it going on!

  • For the glory of the Empire!

    Jump

  • Took a nap. FOR THE GLORY OF THE EMPIRE!!

  • Locked

    Jellyfin is not just good... but better than Plex now?!

    Jump

  • I used Plex a while ago and didn't like how I had to look for my folders against the stuff they offered. And the upside of being able to get my stuff from a server install on another network had me wondering if they were looking at the movies I had to pirate. Once I installed jellyfin, I didn't have to worry. My only issue is if I want to use it on vacation, I have to do some vps hack-jiggery.

  • What have you done for the glory of The Empire?

    Jump

  • I did nothing all day, FOR THE GLORY OF THE EMPIRE!

  • How come mosquitoes haven't evolved to not irritate it's victims during the biting process?

    Jump

  • It would need to be us that needs to evolve away from being sensitive to mosquito saliva. But our immune system went the other way to be allergic to it so we could defend against any infection or disease the bug might carry. Further proof of human stupidity in our evolution, that we trigger the defense mechanism after the the attack instead of preventing it.
