GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Where do you go when you have no one to talk to?English5·5 days agoI don’t go anywhere and it’s probably killing me slowly thru vices. I don’t see a better option tho.
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What popular TV show did not do it for you and you quit watching?English121·5 days agoI made it one episode. Extremely well done show about a tragically terrible flaw of American society that frustrates me daily. Didn’t need a reminder of how terrible things are.
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Games@sh.itjust.works•"I've had this idea for 25 years": Solo dev behind single-player MMO with fake simulated players insists "I do not plan to add multiplayer" as it soars on SteamEnglish20·6 days agoTldr: Game title is Enshrouded.
You sure about that? FTA

GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why do people let their children stream themselves on YouTube?English3·7 days agoIt kind of is and kind of isn’t. I’m guessing you don’t have kids. You have to pick your battles. Every disagreement or lesson or whatever takes energy. You only get so much per day. Some kids need more energy from you than others.
That said, regarding your original question, mine don’t stream on YouTube and I can’t imagine why a parent would. That is a battle I would pick. They don’t even have computer web cams. (their phones do, but our rule is you can’t have them on when other people are around unless they okay it.)
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do you feel about posting to a dead thread?English2·9 days agoI acknowledge it. I preface my post with something, usually /rezz or I’ll comment “I know this is old but…”
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Dude, what's wrong with Reddit?English1·10 days agoIt’s a good concern, but it’s not a “right-now” problem. It shouldn’t stop you from doing your thing, until it’s a real problem. It’s not urgent. When it becomes a problem, you likely will have more resources to solve it.
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Dude, what's wrong with Reddit?English36·10 days agoOn fragrange, zerowaste and sustainability.
/r/soapmaking might have some advice. There is a lemmy equivalent !soapmaking@sh.itjust.works but it doesn’t look very active.
The post got deleted by mods in a manner of minutes.
I’ve always struggled with Reddit’s arcane rules. I rarely know why my stuff is deleted. shrugs I don’t really post there anymore, just lurk.
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Dude, what's wrong with Reddit?English4·10 days agoare toxic to aquatic life when poured down the drain
When they’re used in cleaning concentrations, are they that harmful? I see commercial products with them, so they can’t be super terrible. Drain water still has to go thru municipal water systems before it’s released back into nature.
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Dude, what's wrong with Reddit?English81·10 days agoThe dose makes the poison. Anything in high enough concentrations causes problems. Essential oils are distilled from the plant and SUPER concentrated.
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Ask Men@lemmy.world•What would be the male equivalent to the whole "bear or strange man in the woods" question that did the rounds with women awhile back?English1·11 days ago“would you rather share your emotions with a woman you know or a tree in the woods”, but that doesn’t really feel like it’s an equal question in my head.
Why not? The premise of the bear vs the man is a physical dilemma, which is usually how a male aggressor attacks a female victim. The premise of sharing your emotions with a tree vs a woman is an emotional dilemma, which is usually how a female attacks a male victim.
The tree vs woman was instantly understandable to me, because I’ve been manipulated and harassed by multiple women in my life, after opening up to them and being vulnerable, mostly with romantic partners. My male friends didn’t do this in nearly the same frequency. That said, it’s a problem of sampling bias. I’ve never had a romantic relationship with a man. Maybe they would physically attack me. Maybe they would emotionally attack me.
As inifinitesunrise said, it’s kind of nonsensical. I think the root of the question is “would you rather be vulnerable again or not?” but with heteronormativity or sexual dimorphism. Honestly, no. I’ll never be that vulnerable again. It’s backfired every time in my life. Every. Time. If my experience is universal, which I hope it’s not, then it’s just that humans are flawed and terrible. (I’m slowly turning into the old man in the woods with only a dog breaking the solitude.)
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•The Law Finally Caught Up, EVERY AAA Is In TroubleEnglish26·16 days agoI love Bellular’s content. I wish he would stop playing the clickbait game. I miss it when he didn’t do that. I know why he does, but I hate it.
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is one moral you have that most people don't agree with?English7·20 days agoIP? Do you mean imaginary property? If so, I agree. I think that ideas and culture should be shared. I understand the stated goal (protect individual inventors from being exploited by huge corporations) but that’s not how it’s played out. It’s used as a tool of control by powerful companies to stifle innovation. Ask any 3d printer hobbyist if they like stratysus. (I effing hate them) there should be some mechanism to protect inventors but this isn’t it.
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is a book that you will gladly read again?English4·21 days agoBooks. Multiple.
The Practice Effect by David Brin. It’s an isekai (it’s not anime, but it’s an isekai) where things get MORE useful when you use them, reversing entropy.
Sentenced to Prism. MC is sent on a mission to a world inhabited by silicate based life forms. Shenanigans ensue. Mildly autistic coded MC.
Resurrection Inc. The dead are resurrected as mindless zombie robots. Sometimes it goes wrong and the dead regain their memories. The MC does. Hijinks ensue.
edit - more

GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are you permanently banned off reddit? or do you just like lemmy more?English4·22 days agoLemmy more. The default comment sorting means there’s a chance that my comment will be at the top and therefore discussion can happen. On reddit, past a certain amount of comments, I don’t bother. No one will see it.
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Anybody pulling off any good April Fools jokes?English3·25 days agoI still remember when blizzard made guitar hero bard class. The community loved it and wanted it to be real.
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What would you do if you had a time machine ?English2·1 month agoTell my grandfather to get his heart checked out. He died too young. I’d love to see just how much sense he’d beat into my father, who is a complete garbage can of a person.
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•This city builder has the best brick-by-brick building system around—here's our reviewEnglish3·1 month agoI like to leave the article title as is, but then add the game afterwards “clickbait description here (actual game title)”
The factory must grow
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eeto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•why are abusive people nice sometimes, especially in public?English271·1 month agoThat sounds like one of my parents. They are a narcissist.
They’re doing it to save face and appear nice. They know they rules of society and push them as far as they can to gain advantage. If they know that being mean to you gets the same results as being nice, they will be mean.
