On a CRT? Sure, probably a lot haven’t seen it. On a modern TV? Still possible for some - mine does this if I hit the channel button rather than volume accidentally.

Fuck that, give me another version of Pokemon Master Trainer.

I never held any real hope for the flying car, and always thought the moon cities were predicted way earlier than would be feasible.

The real question is where. is. my. god damn. hoverboard!?

Depends on the kink. Leather, whips, and paddles? Always been at least a little cool. Electroplay? Very cool.

Diaper play? To each their own, but not cool.

Two choices:

1. Medical mask and sunglasses (preferably those boxy ones people wear over regular glasses). Few people question medical masks these days.
2. Embrace the lunacy, and wear whatever mask/facial covering you think is cool/funny. Life’s short and a lot of people would do well to embrace harmless weirdness.

I’ve done ziplock bags for cargo short contents before, speeds security checks up a lot.

Fucking competence. I wish I was bumbling fool with severe Dunning-Kruger more often than I care to admit.

Boo this person! (I kid, don’t boo them, they’re doing good work and I understand if not everyone wants to be a sh.it.head)

I’d ask how you define evil in this case. To me, an act is evil when the net detriment to the planet and its contents (including humans) is greater than the net benefit it creates, and the actor pursues said act knowing this. I’d argue it scales with the nature and context of the act. It’s hard to say this isn’t real. But yes, we all have the capacity for evil, and also can be complicit in other evils by dint of normalized behaviours (without necessarily being ‘evil’ ourselves)

I do agree that an absolute Evil doesn’t exist, the same way an absolute Good doesn’t exist. But we’re a pile of writhing meat puppets on a moist, moldy rock - we don’t exist on that level in the first place.

Wow, this brought back a weird memory.

There was a very old internet ‘trend’ that had folks basically stretching and helicoptering their dicks on a regime with the idea that over time, it would make them bigger.

Basically dicksmashing.

In an age of LLM, Seaman needs a remake.

I’ve been staring at this comment for like 5 minutes, trying to figure out what this could possibly be. I might be a little stoned.

(On the off chance I got it, the lady is Dido, song is Thank You.)

Did a unit on interactive fiction for a grad seminar once, and sent a link to the Infocom Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy game as an optional primer. No one in the room except the prof and one guy who was experimenting with MUDs at the time had ever played a text adventure.

I mean, that was fun for me…

The goodest steed.

I likened it to a room with bidirectional portals yesterday - your analogy is much better, and has been stolen for future use.

A little niche, but

Bring a gay homie to this place and treat it like a two for one promotion.

Note: You are probably going to have to be willing to throw down/draw for your gay homie. Edit: Reading more it’s probably just best to not patronize this place at all.

I urge you to consider this before giving up on Lemmy entirely, it’s kind of the beauty of the federated services.

Deeply under-rated comment.
