If you have a few or more references, then it has a better chance of surviving on Wikipedia. Otherwise, it’s considered low quality/importance.

Nice try Mass Surveillance agency!

Peter McIndoe did a thought provoking talk on TED back in 2023. The whole thing is worth watching IMO. But if you’re wanting to get down to the real stuff, it starts 5:08 of 13:50.

There is on Lemmy.World.

It’s probably an instance thing. Either way, glad you made it.

Mortal Engines

It seemed like a prime IP to get its time on the big screen, being that it’s got a lot to build off of. But the sheer number of characters that were introduced throughout the movie and the ‘all of this and more awaits,’ really had me overwhelmed with having any continued interest in the “main characters” as the movie entered its third act. There were more issues, but that was the one that really sealed its fate imo.

I may not be the smartest person here, but I’m pretty sure this is for some horse roleplaying shit.

Howdy, Slowbro.

This is why I put tape over my laptop webcam.

Are you me?

Thank you for pointing that out to me.

Oh, that makes sense. Although it is a leap mentally for me to think about it, because all I have to compare it to is an athletic shirt. And even that seems like a twice worn and done kinda situation.

Wait, how often do women change bras in a week normally?

You speak as if you’ve done this before. ha

It has to do with Verb Tense.

In your example, “I thought he died,” that would mean you thought he had died in the past.

“I thought he was dead” would mean that you thought he had died recently or in this situation, in the present time.

I read this very much like it was a comment on !outside@lemmyworld.com, and it added to the overall read.

I understand your perspective and agree that it would be best to do the following.

But you gotta understand how it feels for most Millennials.

What’s not included in this meme are: USA’s Unjustified involvement in two Middle East countries with our armed forces and bombs, 1 Trillion dollars collectively “spent” on those two involvements, “Resurfacing” of mass racism, Mass false news/information, The never ending inflation of everything, and the lie that if we all went to college and got a degree, that everything would be alright later on. (Let me know if I missed any.)

So yes, giving up hope is not wise. But nor is letting us live our lives as if this isn’t some of the most corrupt, asinine, ‘fight amongst yourselves while we the ultra rich keep taking from you in any way we can,’ period of time.

Gather around children. u/bjoern_tantau is going to tell us of one of the mighty Wikipedia Edit Wars.

Are we… Are we related?

Today at work, I needed to make some orange jello that would be poured over mandarin oranges in small meal cups with plastic lids. Well, yea boi, read the instructions three times to make sure to not mess it up like I have done before in the past. (Too much water ain’t good for jello setting.) Well wouldn’t you believe it. Yea boi messed up. It calls for 2 litters of very hot water and to add two cold liters of water after mixing in the jello powder. I still don’t understand how I fucked this up. Like really. I. Have. No. Idea. Why my brain blocked/jumped to accepting that 34 Fl. Oz. was two liters of water per batch. …Which means that I only made each package with 3 liters of water… I didn’t realize this was the case until I was finishing up making the last package (out of 7) of jello mix to pour. (fml.)
