i haven’t heard of any place on lemmy restricting one’s ability to post based on your vote total, but i’d never encountered it during my many years on reddit, either.
if you get a lot of downvotes, and someone is sorting by “top” or “hot”, your post or comment will be further down the list though, and vice versa for upvotes. (though personally, i almost always sort by “new” on lemmy, or sometimes, “new comments”.)
they mattered on reddit? how?
both on occasion, but i brush my teeth at least once or twice a day, while i only shower like once a week usually. so it is most often the sink.
depends on the festival, and whether or not the girl you’re looking for is at that festival, i suppose.
story from me, an introvert: a while back i went to a slosh (like a munch, but with booze) at this bar in SF that was also an arcade, and it was in a big ass old theater. i made two friends that night, and they and I and my partner played 4 player pac-man, and mario kart, and DDR, and bunches of other games, and several years later our group of now like seven people with shared interests all meet up regularly to play board games and watch cartoons together. anyways, the lesson here is that arcade-bars are sick and this one had 25¢ plays of DDR and alcoholic slushies.
not really anymore, but only for usually drifting apart from old friends reasons. it is hard (for me) to maintain friendships when the other party lives thousands of kilometers away, and everyone is too poor and busy to travel.
if my nightmares last night are anything to go by, i must be concerned about that on some level.
that’s just propaganda put out by the hollywood elite so we don’t find about their actual cheese vaults on the back side of the moon.
gotta be flat moon theory for me
if you just want sex, i hear there’s lots of people looking for hookups on grindr.
most recently, i left the apartment to take the trash down to the dumpster this afternoon.
If you don’t know less than 50% of Americans have a passport. The ones who don’t, I really see the limitation in their thinking.
why do you think it’s a thinking problem? applying for a passport costs money. travelling to another country costs even more money. not everyone has had access to the same opportunities.
anyways. i haven’t gotten to travel out of the US, but it certainly ain’t because i wouldn’t like to. it just isn’t financially feasible for a lot of people here.
a legal monopoly on violence is the cornerstone of the states power. while there are definitely valid reasons to want to restrict access to the tools of violence, the state will always have that access, and if it restricts the general populations access to same, it becomes far easier to oppress them.
also, if we’re gonna ban weapons, i’d like to start with SUVs.
he seems pretty blatantly innocent to me. as to whether he’ll be found guilty of anything, idk, but i really doubt he’ll be able to get a fair trial in this country, so, probably.
well, i hope you can understand how it seemed like it was about this post, since you posted it as an update to this post.
i guess it was just too petty to even consider. i wouldn’t have guessed anyone would read that much into something as trivial as a handful of downvotes. calling everyone ‘pathetic’, ‘triggered’ and ‘unable to take criticism’ over something as minor as downvotes honestly hadn’t occured to me. as you say, downvotes are cheap.
depends on the movie. it’ll probably be as bad as at least one movie said. we’ve got a lot of data points for films with AI at this point, and they’re all over the place in terms of how bad or good AI is.
i kinda get it. it just has big “i’m 14 and am probably the only smart person to ever live” energy.
UPDATE: I find it utterly pathetic that people can’t take real criticism. Like they are triggered over anything that needs to be said.
you’ve gotten three replies (before this one). chill tf out.
are you asking for loanwords in non english languages that have been borrowed from a third language, for which the concept has no direct equivalent in english, or are you asking folks to just suggest non-english words that english should adopt as loanwords?
good advice about buses. i chased after a bus once. i tripped, twisted my ankle, damaged my clothing, and scraped the hell out of my left wrist, elbow, and shoulder. still got a scar from it. everyone on the bus saw, and the bus driver waited for me as i limped up to the next stop.
