There’s that guy that did that. He said it wasn’t a very good sandwich.

*as this is a youtuber thread, he has a channel. It’s okay. https://youtube.com/@htme?si=qfrFo68rA3Wi4cTL

and making light of the fact that absolutely everything we buy is subject to sabotage by third parties due to the loss of control of our supply chains.

Oh well, haha.

I guessed its because the purchase leaves a sour taste in your mouth.

I’m that level of user that will block the ever loving shit out of everything but not do much to make it better. The problem is that once you’ve blocked everything you have pretty much zero interest in there isn’t much left on lemmy. Still better than reddit though.

Sounds like you found your million dollar idea! Now its as easy as cashing all your cheques! Congratulations!

Yes, but I’m talking about mass adoption. Very few users care, they want to scroll through and see stuff they like. They don’t want to curate and host and delve into the intricacies. Until such time as someone makes lemmy palatable, the masses won’t eat it.

You say surrealism is anti-fascist. Then you say cruelty and absurdity are the same thing (two sides of the same coin). Then you try to clarify by saying they are two separate things but have a commonality (two coins same side). I think ying/yang is more fitting, and quicker to the punch, in that there can be a little cruelty in absurdity and vise versa, which you were dancing around with your ill fitting metaphor. So, yes, I don’t think so. Clarity is in the eye of the beer holder.

Therein lies the complication.

Sailing. Boating. Sewing. Those are they tops ones I miss from reddit that had active users. Instead we have 7000 communities for linux and pervy anime.

Probably one complication is that the trucks need to be able to drive while the bed is up in normal operation. They have to move forward while dumping to spread the load.

Lemmy won’t catch on until there are groups of communities you can ban at once. Sports, Linux, German, pervy anime… It’s a very rare user who will put up with the absolute dreck of the initial feed and manually block communities until they have a feed that’s marginally personalized.

Then there’s the fact that any communities that are specific to peoples interests are completely empty.

Your metaphor is not working. Cruelty and absurdity are Ying and Yang?

If you use a stick with two points in it, its called a trammel.

Thanks for not trying to understand my point whatsoever. I look forward to your future regurgitations.

I’ve heard yarn that is spun by beginners is highly sought after. When you almost know how to spin, but not quite, you get a variance of thickness and lumps and bumps that create an interesting texture when woven. This is very hard to create once you actually know how to spin. There’s a time when you know how, but haven’t perfected it yet that is almost impossible to replicate once you’re an experienced spinster.

AI art is like that in my opinion. We’re at a stage where such strange things are being made by AI and the absurdity and surrealism will soon be lost once it actually figures out how to do it right. We should appreciate the slop since soon we won’t be able to distinguish from human and machine and right now its funny.

Nobody will probably remember canv.as but you would give people emoji stickers like that. Cookies were the participation award. I loved that site.

I totally count sinew as string. That probably led to plant string. Think about really fine string, or thread, and think about how many miles of it you carry around on you every day. It’s crazy how taken for granted it is!

I would posit string being the real game changer. How do you think they got the stone on the end of a stick?

Until they need something built.

Thats how the trades look at engineers.
