Would Lemmy Benefit from Implementing Polls? ( slrpnk.net )

A popular way of dealing with discussions, and familiar to most people, I assume. As far as I see it, adding a poll system to Lemmy is a good way to enhance user engagement. I'm not really aware if this has been a topic before or not, tried looking it up but didn't see much juice on the topic, so thought I'd spark it up....

I’m seeing a lot of those creepy mustaches lately.

I don’t like their coffee, but I commend them for their success in building so many stores that some are directly across the street from one another.

I guess I wasn’t clear.

The dense clustering of Starbucks locations, often situated across the street from one another, has led to an oversaturation that has negatively impacted their sales.

Jakdracula ,

Yes.

I was being sarcastic, I do not like Starbucks whatsoever

Can you live without YouTube ?

Today in a Privacy community a post about YouTube. No word about privacy but all about which software or settings are needed to watch videos and the money needed to host videos. It made me wonder whether some of you can lead a meaningful life without YouTube. Or will a cold turkey bring the worst out of you ?

This is a simulation and we are here on vacation.

Imagine a civilization so advanced there’s no more death. There’s no more wars. There’s no more dying of old age, sickness, or anything else. You just exist in a beautiful society day after day after perfect day.

After a couple thousand years, you might start to get bored. So you go into the simulation where you can starve to death, feel pain for the first time, fall in love, and when it’s all over, you wake up back in the advanced civilization with these great memories of what it was like to fear, to love, to be hungry…

Nope.

Eric Clapton is an anti-VAX conspiracy theorist and a racist.
Van Morrison is anti-VAX conspiracy theorist and a racist.
John Lennon is a serial abuser drug addict, beat women and abandoned his own son.
Steven Tyler from Aerosmith is a pedophile.
Anthony Kiedis from the Red Hot chili peppers is a pedophile.

Etc.

Anytime I learned something horrible about someone famous, I write them off completely.

Yup.

Don’t get me started on “Kid Rock”

Eric is a racist way before he was an antivaxer.

In 1976, on stage, Clapton praised Tory MP Enoch Powell, and declared that Britain must stop itself from becoming a “black colony,” and said “England is for white people, man.”

He went on to say:

“I don’t want you here, in the room or in my country. Listen to me, man! I think we should vote for Enoch Powell. Enoch’s our man. I think Enoch’s right, I think we should send them all back. Stop Britain from becoming a black colony. Get the foreigners out. Get the wogs out. Get the coons out. Keep Britain white. I used to be into dope, now I’m into racism. It’s much heavier, man. Fucking wogs, man. Fucking Saudis taking over London. Bastard wogs. Britain is becoming overcrowded and Enoch will stop it and send them all back. The black wogs and coons and Arabs and fucking Jamaicans and fucking… don’t belong here, we don’t want them here. This is England, this is a white country, we don’t want any black wogs and coons living here. We need to make clear to them they are not welcome. England is for white people, man. We are a white country. I don’t want fucking wogs living next to me with their standards. This is Great Britain, a white country. What is happening to us, for fuck’s sake?”

Do you think people over 40 can’t be very pretty?

I have no problem with this, I’d buy a Chinese Ev today if they were available.

Completely amazing.

Yes! Battlefield Earth.
I stayed for the whole movie because I couldn’t believe how bad it was.

Armageddon would be better without Ben Affleck.

Yes!

He is a horrendously, horrible actor. I can’t watch a single thing he’s in.

If the person you want to give a gift to is a weightlifter or work out enthusiast, buy them a shirt.

If the shirt is too big, they will be flattered, and if the shirt is too small, they will wear it.

For the last several decades now I have asked my wife or others “guess what I got you for Christmas?” (Birthday or whatever…).

The first thing they guess is the real thing they want as a gift.

Obtaining a barber license means that you have completed a minimum of 1,250 hours of instruction in barbering education within a period of at least 9 months or completed 1,250 hours of training.
It takes 1,250 to 2,000 hours to be a cosmologist.
Police in Germany get 2.5 years of training, and in Finland, police education takes three years to complete.
Police in the USA get 750 hours.

No. No interest of them while in high school, not the least bit curious of them now.

The space between the R and the e is driving me nuts.
