It was made into a film called Children of Men.

Try AwesomeWM. Or if you are determined to have a tiling only then QTile is good.

Probably the opposite.

Our “higher reasoning” and “state of awareness” (needs defining) gives us the ability to do thigns other animals can’t. For example chronic pain sufferers are taught how to manage their pain with a variety of CBT techniques. Not something you can teach a dog or cat.

People in intense periods of intense suffering may have thw ability to dissociate from the experience (“go to their happy place”) to lessen the pain experience.

We’re not aware animal shave this ability.

If anything mammals of all kinds that feel pain don’t have our higher cognitive ability to help manage and supress it.

Birds aren’t real - terrible misinofrmation.

Also wouldn’t it be better to replace the glorified seagull in the sidebar with a proper eagle like the Golden Eagle?

It’s a rainbow pentagram which means only the gayest of demons will be brought forth. Only bottoms need worry about their horned dicks.

I wish the Lemmy instances would realise the ultimate ideal isn’t just deferated instances but federated logins too - in combination!!

So rather than being signed up to 1 istance plus an alt. You can just be logged into Google/FB/Twitter and access all the sinstances.

Hello Mr Hong Kongnese. I’m a Brit. We don’t boil water here and I’ve visisted Iceland - they don’t boil it either.

Diu gau lan tsat hai - Merry Christmas. Enjoy your holiday.

Maybe in 10yrs time it will be immortalised in ‘Lemmy Museum’ as one of Lemmys first memes. Like Reddits Jolly Rancher or broken arms stories.

Like hearding cats.

I wish the LOTR memers would come over.

This is Justicce Porn and I approve.

Oh my god - I’d completely forgotten about that place! I just checked and it’s stil alive: https://astalavista.box.sk/search/

I remember it being dark blue when I used it back in the 90s though.

I admin-ed my own vBulletin board around 04-06. The script itself cost about £90 back then. It was so great though. Small community of like-minded people all chattng. It was like a slow-Discord or a more intimate Reddit.

I installed a ton of extensions for people to play Flash games at one point too.

One day I accidentally forgot to pay hosting and the site vanished. Lost it all. Never bothered relaunching.

Top 3 most upvoted comments always being unfunny puns was getting insufferable on Reddit. Everyone was trying to be a fucking comedian - that’s what was popular and got upvotes.

The early Reddit you could have long, interesting arguments with people and you’d both be getting upvoted because you’re both making interesting points.

It honestly feels like my brain is waking up from a digital coma since coming to Lemmy from Reddit. My own personality and opinions don’t feel pointlessly supressed and sanitised.

Don’t call other people stupid just because they see beyond your attempt to be clever.

You think I’m trying to be clever by speaking my own language?

You think I speak my own language to seem “edgy”?

The word “faggot” on reddit gets site-wide deleted which means even saying it in the UK subs where people will know the meaning it would get deleted. Yes it’s happened and that’s fucking moronic.

It’d be like banning Spaniards from their own subs for saying "Tiene negro gato ".

No. I’m 40yrs old and I don’t keep up with the modern-day lingo. 😂

Also I’m British so I speak British English. “Fags” are cigarettes and “faggots” are a type of food.

If you’ve seen Steve Huffman’s face you may prefer the faceless corporation to having a faced one.

“It works on my PC”

I can say things like:

“I like Brains faggots more than any other brand” and “Retard the accelerator” without my comment being deleted and/or Reddit-banned for hate-speech.

I once got suspended from Reddit for saying: “The Scots weren’t innocent during the British Empire. They were used for a lot of rape & murder”.

It was considered racist. Until I appealed with 2 academic history papers that showed the Scottish Highlanders were considered a “martial race” and were used extensively in colonial campaigns during the British Empire. I really don’t want to have to fucking educate dumb-as-brick Yank admins who don’t know history or language beyond their shores.

I was finally site-suspended and can’t create new users because a mod accused me of evading a sub ban. I didn’t. Another mod just unbanned me cos the reason I got banned originally was idiotic. The mod didn’t care. Re-banned me so my 15yo account got permanently suspended by the admins.

I’m done with that fucking site.

What happened with Beehaw?
