Just finished this anime. Anyone else watched it? I thought the plot was genius, very well tied and with an amazing antagonist. The pacing felt a little slow at times. in c/television@piefed.social

I felt that way about 20th Century Boy too. Dragged on for no good reason, lackluster climax

The Fall, unless we draw a distinction between underrated and under-noticed

it's not comments like these that are holding us back

Anyone know where I can buy or get books by the pound to start a new library for our local jail. To help them read and prep them for a GED? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] classic@fedia.io 2 points 1 day ago

If your area has them, free libraries. they are these little kiosks whee ueople leave books for others to take. They are usually overflowing.

I would also ask on whatever the equivalent of craigslist in your area. nextdoor, facebook marketplace and free exchange groups.

between all these, I could fill up a van in a day around here

So, dead internet theory seems to get new supporting evidence every day. Where does it go from here? in c/casualconversation@piefed.social

not a long rant. an appropriately old school engaged response

There is a California city called Oakland. This place is a total disaster. When Oakland deployed cameras for 20 days, this is what they found. in c/fuckcars@lemmy.world

If they were concerned about speeding and not just an excuse for surveillance and money via fines, they'd install speed bumps

Great write up!

Batman probably checks for the bat signal the way we check our screens for notifications. (fedia.io)
 

Like, even in the middle of apprehending some burglars he can't help himself from glancing up a few times, in case

What's your go-to online dictionary? (fedia.io)
 

English language for me, but list options for other languages to benefit others!

Do you wish a Happy Mother's Day to your friends who are mothers or just to those in your own family? (fedia.io)
 

And what's a good friendly message or meme to send just to say I think they're great at being mothers?

I'm looking to buy something like a reverse wheelbarrow, what do I call that? (fedia.io)
 

I'm looking to cart products around to sell on foot.

Basically I want a box on wheels with bars in the front that I can lift and then walk forward. Similar to the idea of a rickshaw, but instead of seats for people, a container that can hold ~200lbs of weight. Or the type of thing you'd connect to a bike, except I want to just pull it on foot. The added element is that I want to be collapsible or able to be dismantled when not in use. Surely this must exist but I have no idea what term to use to search for it.

"Rickshaw" mainly brings results related to pedicabs. The closest I got was "utility cart" like this for example. But the problem with these, unlike a rickshaw style design, is they don't scale well with the addition of weight where two wheels is easier than 4, depending on the surface. Also, versions that can be taken apart of collapses aren't rugged enough.

I've used a hand truck put into the flat configuration in the past. But that lacks the box component to contain the products. I can stack boxes on it, but that gets unstable. And, again, the 4 wheel flat design doesn't scale well with weight compared to the rickshaw concept.

So, yeah: what do you call that?

Just played Area 51/Maximum Force at a retro-arcade. Are light gun shooter games still a thing? Any recent versions available for PC? (fedia.io)
 

And, if they are, any recommendations for a gun controller?

If you donate to a service, do you so anonymously? (fedia.io)
 

Like if you want to donate to a website that maintains trackers, or files, do you take steps to make it anon, or just use paypal or whatever? If you do, how do you go about doing that?

There should be a term for people who never really returned from the pandemic's social isolation (fedia.io)
 

People who haven't really resumed socializing at levels they used to, people who lost the capacity to regulate during interpersonal interactions, people who lost trust in others... I encounter lots of partial returners out there

Is there a way to crop the field of vision / frame of the webcam? (fedia.io)
 

I'm on a Legion Lenovo Slim 5. The webcam shows too much area around me during video calls (the browser based teleconferencing tool that I use doesn't have settings to adjust this).

I tried the cameractrls app, but it doesn't offer any way to crop or zoom in. Any other suggestions?

Is there an e-reader that would allow you to edit an .epub file? (fedia.io)
 

Beyond just marking up an e-book, are there any devices that would also allow you to edit the file itself?
