Oh god how did this get here I am not good with computer
Lemmy.ca has been defederated from Lemmygrad ever since I’ve been a member (June), so that’s not anything new. Looks like it goes back to at least September of last year.
They’re talking kind of three months in the summer and two to three weeks in the winter for skiing.
To drop 32 million on a house (which is mind bogglingly in and of itself) and only spend three months in it? Motherfuckers out there with way too much goddamn money. That’s ridiculous.
Wait, hold the fuck up. David Tennant is returning as another Doctor!? I haven’t watched much since the Matt Smith era, but how the hell does that work with the DW lore?
That’s a really cool idea! I wonder if they could’ve made it a bit more ergonomic though? Dude at 1:40 is having a tough time with his leg stretched that far. Maybe if the track was closer to the road or if the lift’s foot rest was wider?
Commuter Thunderdome - Two commuters enter, one commuter leaves (the car defeats the squishy human every time).
I could be wrong about this (it’s the internet, I’m sure someone will correct me), but I think public perception of bike lanes in this city got kind of fucked because one of the previous city councils spent a ton of money without really explaining it properly and they were seemingly installing them on streets where they weren’t connected/doing much (this has got a lot better now).
So now the whole thing is just one of those “let’s blame this” kind of topics. Kind of like “we’d have better blahblah if they didn’t waste all the money on bike lanes”. Nimbyism is also really strong in this city.
Hey, that’s my city! I’m sad to say that I’m not overly surprised. I don’t know if it’s an everywhere thing, but there’s a vocal minority in Victoria that have a real stick up their ass about bike lanes.
That’s how you get wireless internet. You have to charge the internet before taking it with you.
Man, actually hearing that someone is enjoying this place makes me feel bad for trying to give it away 😂
I guess if no one ends up wanting it, I could try my best to keep it going. As long as y’all don’t mind infrequent posts. I’m trying to balance “Lemmy feeling like a job” with “actually enjoying Lemmy”. Maybe it’s my own fault for creating a bunch of communities (it’s definitely my own fault lol).
Shitty? Bruh, that looks fucking delicious. I’d demolish that whole pan.
r/place is an interactive art project run by reddit on April Fools. It ran in 2017 and 2022. Now they’ve brought it back for 2023 (it was supposed to have happened on April Fools this year, but various…things…happened). It kicked off again today and as expected, it’s gained attention for the bad timing (protests, tone deaf admin, etc…) and people have coordinated to write “fuck spez” messages and other things (at some point, there was a guillotine + reddit’s head).
Where did all the 90 minute movies go? I’m up for a longer movie if it can hold my attention (I have the same problem of dozing off) but 90 minutes was the sweet spot. Especially because you could make a late night (10pm or after) snap decision to watch a movie and still be in bed before midnight.
I don’t know if it happens all the time, but sometimes I’ve noticed that if you edit a comment, it’ll add a +1 to the comment counter. Which in the case of that thread, it says four comments, but there’s only three and Lemmyin@lemmy.nz has edited their comment to make it four.
I think it’s a bug when people from outside the instance where the thread is hosted edit their comments.
A recent example I noticed is that if I go to this thread it shows 8 comments (viewing from Lemmy.ca) but if you view the same thread from Lemmy.world it shows 9 because I edited my comment.
I knew someone who threw themselves off a bridge. Well, I knew their sibling. I was there when the call came through from the RCMP that they were missing. Then the call that the body was found. To say that it destroyed that family would be an understatement. I remember that my friend had to go down with their mother and identify what was left of the body. They were (understandably) never quite the same after that.
I don’t know if I support expanding MAID to people with mental health issues or not. I have a feeling their sibling would’ve found a way to kill themselves one way or another. Maybe something more dignified would’ve been easier on the family? I don’t know.
I’m sure there’s an argument to be made about not buying things you can’t afford, but looking at the graph in that article, people are going to get fucked on mortgage renewals. Anyone that locked in for 3/4/5 years are going to be renewing between now and the next couple of years and going from BOC rate of 0.25% to 5% or more is going to hurt.
Someone I know is looking at renewing their mortgage in the next couple of months and they’re already looking at a jump from 3% to >6%.
Go for it man! I had never moderated over on Reddit but I wanted to contribute on Lemmy so I started up some communities. Everyone has behaved themselves so far and people have been pretty positive about things. Eventually it might get overwhelming (if Lemmy really takes off), but there’s always the option of adding more mods to help.
I’m really digging the realistic take on the yellow suit. I think it works well.
Also, I hope there’s going to be a scene where he rips the sleeves off. Long sleeved Logan feels wrong 😂
You’re on thin ice posting food porn worthy stuff here 😋
I’ve been trying to kickstart four communities because apparently I’m a masochist, but I’ve posted more in the last month than I did in the last 10 years on reddit. It reminds me a lot of my first couple of years on reddit (circa 2010/2011) and then my posting died off because you’d either get drowned out by the noise (hundreds or thousands of comments) or ignored in favour of a one liner joke.
I’ve seen a lot of people comparing Lemmy to early reddit, and I don’t necessarily disagree, but I feel like there’s one important distinction between the two. Even early reddit was driven by karma. There just wasn’t as much people >10 years ago. I find the lack of karma on Lemmy refreshing. How it’s gone back to the old forum way of just counting the number of posts is fantastic. It’s a weird habit to break out of though because part of me still wants to go “I got no upvotes, time to delete” or “I’m getting downvotes, better delete my post”.

Can’t help with a briscola edit though cause I’m on mobile.
