  • Just use Rufus, dude… You can even set the amount of space your image/deployment/instance (whatever the most correct term is lol) persists in, which makes it more convenient if (like me) you find yourself frequently wanting to play around with new and exciting distros.

    Also, not to gang up on ya or anything either, but I’m gonna have to second the other commentor’s request for the info on that laptop, as I’ve never encountered one that prevented you from reformatting it… o_0 I would be returning the fuck out of that garbage… Even the non-ARM old chromebooks would let you do that.


  • I just don’t see how actually showing me a character’s genitals serves any more of a purpose than perhaps tastefully implying (through cutaways, for example) that the characters are having sex other than pure titillation… And there is clearly a vast sea of content designed specifically for that, so I don’t really care for media that goes out of its way to be graphic if that isn’t its express purpose.

    Additionally, to be perfectly honest, I don’t really know how anyone can view a lot of these sex scenes in a positive light post-#metoo movement either. Maybe I’m just an idiot or a prude or something, but I have a lot of difficulty believing that every single nude/sex scene that’s come out of Hollywood has been completely free of some variety of impropriety or, at the very least, coercion. And that by itself is enough to strip away whatever merit you might argue the scene could have.









  • Same here, and I haven’t made the slightest effort to even find communities I’m interested in so far, either. I think there’s maybe 4 places I’m actually subbed to? For now I’ve been content to just sorta browse .world all and see what interesting communities/posts come up, and that’s been more than enough to keep me occupied content-wise. Sure, I’m gonna make a more concerted effort to find subs to by and large replace my communities on reddit at some point, but I’m actually pleasantly reminded of my earlier days browsing reddit (12 years ago now, which seems unreal) and just stumbling across groups I had no idea existed - especially when they have 🔥memes.

    The only subs I’ve blocked so far are the German and French language onrs, as I literally can’t understand them lol




  • Dude, I’m on .world as well and holy hell the ‘timeout’ errors every time I click/scroll/look at anything too hard get a little trying sometimes… It seems to be largely cosmetic (if that makes sense) as it hasn’t eaten any of my comments or anything so far, but… lol

    Also, odd and potentially problematic thing I’ve run into: so far, any /c/ link I’ve attempted to click on in jerboa flat out CTDs the whole thing. I’m not sure if that is a jerboa thing or a .world issue (somehow? Maybe? Probably not?), but just a bit annoying when I’m actively trying to find new communities to add 🤣😂



  • 🤣😂 omg, you’re cracking me up, dude, quit… First of all, I don’t think enough time has passed for there to be ‘classic reddit migrant’ anything, but I do know that either way you can take your pathetic little attempts at gatekeeping and go fuck yourself with them. 😁Also, if you have such a problem with people coming to lemmy, then why the fuck are you shitposting in a thread that’s clearly not for you?

    Secondly, I would contend that I can’t insult something you don’t have.

    And I didn’t ask you to reply to a single thing I’ve said, yet… Here you are. Those aren’t arguments, they’re called facts, junior. Now, please, get outta here with this sad, little man energy.



  • Supposing that we’ll always be here because… we’ve always been here is exactly the kind of thinking that’s fucked our species.

    The fact alone that more people aren’t concerned over the fact that we’ve passed +1.5C in La Nina years even with aersol masking is horrifying. Look up ‘blue ocean event’ or ‘clathrate gun’ or actually learn about the increasing ocean acidification or the break down of the jet stream and if you’re any kind of intelligent at all (which your comment has me highly doubting) you’ll see a reason to miss such a community. It sounds like you’re just another one of those who’d rather stick their head in the sand and worship your monied betters, though.


  • The issue I then see with that is well, which duplicate instance gets to be the Highlander? 😋 Does the system automatically show you the post with the most comments? The one that’s had its link clicked most? The one from the largest community?

    Also, how do you prevent this from being hijacked? Say I post some bright, shiny new OC meme, only to have some bot immediately repost it with exactly the same title, etc…

    Not that I have any solutions for any of this, mind…
