Off topic but I wish the body would automatically include a preview of the first few paragraphs of the Wikipedia entry.

This whole graph is wack except friend's dog.

We're all just characters in someone else's cyberpunk story ( corteximplant.com )

the yaer was Two Thousand and twenty-four. I took a puff of my Electronic-Cigarette, inhaling the vapours. my mobile terminal buzzed in my pocket, a flat slab of microchips and glossy touchscreen. I ignored it....... probably another Electronic-Mail

What reading style do you consider more tedious to read, A) short, concise, and precise, but using non-layperson vocabulary, B) using layperson vocabulary, but it's longer, drawn out, and not precise?

I've seen a lot of people on here be teased for difficulty expressing themselves. Either people complain "you're using big person words to describe mundane things" when they're aiming for precision or "woah, we don't need that damn wall of text" when they're aiming for clarity. It's like people just want to complain.

You could have just said, "Why not both?" 😜

There are factually incorrect assertions in this infographic, subjective tastiness scale aside.

Missing a lot of "debatable" astrixes at the very least.

If Reddit had a soul/conscience, I think it was us, and we're all on Lemmy now...

As a little background, I didn't actively use Reddit for months following the blackout. I still barely stop in over there and if I do I'm never logged in our contributing to the communities there (where I was previously a daily poster/commenter)....

The subreddit I was active on is still going strong, albeit with less interested mods. I think the impact of us leaving depends on the types of subs most lemmies used to be on. I don't think anyone from the sub I was on left reddit.

I see the same names cropping up in many disparate communities

I think one reason for this is because it's easier for a post to bubble up to "All > Hot" on Lemmy since there are less people and less posts here.

I just realized "dialing a number" comes from turning a dial.

The Human Ecology of Overshoot: Why a Major Population Correction Is Inevitable ( www.mdpi.com )

Homo sapiens has evolved to reproduce exponentially, expand geographically, and consume all available resources. For most of humanity’s evolutionary history, such expansionist tendencies have been countered by negative feedback. However, the scientific revolution and the use of fossil fuels reduced many forms of negative...

Streetwear has lost its way 😢

We let it happen, imo. The bling era of incorporating high fashion into streetwear to show off let luxury brands co-opt it.

Slavery is horrible, but to put this in perspective, many (most?) cultures around the world had some form of slavery, however America had a particularly brutal version of it. When we think of slavery in general, we picture it as American slavery, but that's inaccurate.

They are just commenting the same way they talk to their friends. People quote funny lines from movies right after watching or say stuff like, "Did you see that crazy stunt in the film?? He literally drove off a cliff!!" They get tons of upvotes too because people feel a connection by recounting and acknowledging what they collectively experienced. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

You mean people getting offended because they misinterpret a friendly jab? Personally, I wish more people commented in a friendly manner. So many toxic comments out there 😬

If you make this type of bracelet, post a pic! :)

I've used it once to try to recover something stuck in a tree 😅 The length is quite long for some uses but perfect for hojojutsu. I also used to carry a shorter length in the form of a keychain for more mundane uses.

How about coffee shops with e-readers built into the tables preloaded with an enormous collection of books?

I'm sorry what? Modding flashlights is a thing?? Please tell me more!

Thanks for the thorough explanation! I'm seeing glowing gaskets under the lens as a popular mod too. Any benefit besides looking cool?
