And yet there's people whose autism is severely debilitating...

I'm certainly not saying autism makes you stupid but people diagnosed with it have a huge range of intelligence so it's unfair to say it "makes you smarter" IMO. There's no proof of causation even if it often does correlate

Maybe anon should get some better games

Autism and other personality disorders don't make you smarter or faster, either...

Ewww to "I'm a bitch"/"I'm an asshole" as a personality trait

Both movies were loved by their target demographic: children

I don't see what makes the last two cult-like?

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'd be pissed, too

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Personally I'd say neither! If I had to give it a name, I'd say....Lore Episode

I think whether that episode is warranted really depends on the vibe of the rest of the show. Lore doesn't matter for most of them but it matters a LOT for others. Like Star Trek wasn't only about the lore, but can you imagine the fandom without it?

Ah, ok. I'm guessing the law is that pay cards can't be the only option then

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Alas, I have not. But that's an early episode, were Bill and Frank are doing something that establishes their characters or motivations? Brings them closer together? Filler episodes are more like irrelevant sidetracks so unless they went to the beach to get a break from the zombies, I don't think that necessarily fits the definition.

I've never heard of McDonald's employees getting paid in preloaded cards, is that true? I know plenty of people do it to avoid taxes but McDonald's is a major employer and that's pretty damn illegal

 

I just moved into this house and was back there to think about what to plant and was quite happy to find this. It's behind a big pine tree and I can't see it from the windows or patio. I was just back there a week or two ago so it was quite a surprise.

I think they came from my neighbor's yard. But the interesting part (to me) is it's the neighbor on the opposite side and there's no peonies in between.

I might get some more and turn that area into a flowerbed with some ground cover.

 

Hey guys, sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this (feel free to point me to a better community) but I'm in a weird "predicament" this summer: My AMD build plans are in shambles after receiving a free ROG Astral 5080.

Now I want to make the switch now with my current (Intel i7-13700K) hardware + this new card. I was only considering AMD before but it's really hard to say no to a video card worth more than my entire budget lol

The slightly worse performance compared to Windows is still an upgrade from my 3070 so that's fine - It's initial/recurring troubleshooting I don't really want to deal with. Most of the info I've found is from earlier this year and no one speaks highly of the beta drivers

Sorry if this is a stupid question but am I setting myself up for disappointment with this new plan? I have a few more related questions I'll toss in the comments but that's my main concern.

 

I feel like it's just marking the report as Read...is there not a way I can remove a comment from this page?

Do I have to go to the post and scroll down to find it every time? There's a huge backlog of reports from before I got asked to mod

 

Didn't see any grass in the camera after crashing...so why won't it lift off?? Oh..

 

Original mod had the same idea as me (get an fpv community going) a year ago but hasn't been active since

Just made a post there: https://lemmy.world/post/29489997

 

I was pretty into flying back when whoops were new but stopped for financial reasons. Recently, friend got his license and I caught the bug again watching his videos.

Got this Mobula7 and have been having a blast. My old box headset has an awful receiver but I got a crazy deal on some Fat Sharks that should be here soon.

I also just moved to a place much better for flying - I can fly to a park without passing any private property.

I've been binging Joshua Bardwell's videos and, of course, already thinking about what I want to buy next. Thinking about a monitor or a second cheap headset for other people to watch.

I haven't geeked out this much on a new (or rediscovered) hobby in awhile and instead of spamming my friend, I decided to post here and maybe get this community going.

Anyone else on Lemmy into quadcopters/FPV?

 

Do you think we could get an "About Community" button on there, too?

 

Forgot I had to give my dog an unexpected bath yesterday and used all the clean towels

 

Example comment

It renders correct in a browser but all the line breaks are replaced with a weird symbol in the app.

Not a big deal or anything but I wanted to share!

 

~~None of them do anything~~

Now they do! If you're getting the same issues, update to the newest beta

 

I have a "flexible" WFH schedule which means I'm almost always working from home. Today, I've been lured in with an NDA breakfast with a manufacturer.

So you know what that means: 1 hour of "yum I love breakfast sandwiches" followed by 6 hours of "why did I think that would be worth the drive?"

 

My friends and I were active Twitter users up until it got sold and the only reason my account isn't deleted already is because I have a LOT of memories there.

I looked into downloading the tweets.js archive but that seems to be only what I wrote, not the original tweet if it's a reply. Having the full conversations that led to in-jokes is what I'm after!

I understand why this would be very complicated and to add to that, half of our profiles are set to private so The Way Back Machine and other public services won't work. Media would be nice but it's not a requirement.

Does something like this exist?
