One helpful thing I found is that it can skip “non music sections”, ie those cringey silent scenes they put in YouTube videos. If that’d existed a couple of years ago, I probably wouldn’t have switched to Spotify. I mainly switched because I was sick of random 10 second pauses for dramatic effect in the middle of songs, often right before the chorus
Did you post this twice?
Just out of spite, I reckon I’m gonna start archiving your page :D
At this time of day in this part of the country???
I take it this is a reference to… Something, but I can’t figure it out. What?
I don’t know if they meet your criteria for a franchise, but any forum based website (including Reddit, Lemmy, etc) always ends up with at least 1 office, friends, or IT crowd reference somewhere in the thread. They’re definitely essential pop culture pillars, even if they don’t qualify as franchises
I’ve still never seen any of them though
I’m 17, and either dislike or don’t know most of them. Here’s my thoughts on most of them, if anybody’s curious:
Star wars - don’t like it
James Bond - never seen it
Lord of the rings - never seen ir
Sherlock Holmes - don’t like it
Batman - hate it
Superman - never seen it
Spiderman - don’t like it
Mission Impossible -never seen of it
Mario - played and enjoyed Mario kart, that’s about it
Zelda - never seen it
Pokemon - never seen it
Indiana Jones - don’t like it
Back to the Future - I saw it but don’t really remember anything from it, mostly forgettable
The Karate Kid - I watched it when I was too young to care, but I think I’d like it if I watched it now
A Nightmare on Elm Street - liked it
Friday the 13th - I know it, but can’t remember if I’ve seen it
Child’s Play - watched one of them, got bored halfway through
It - liked it
Rambo - liked it
Rocky - never seen it
Jurassic Park - seen it, no strong feelings
The Matrix - got bored by the 30 minute mark and turned it off
The Terminator - never seen it
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - don’t like it
Transformers - never seen (or played?) it
The Simpsons - seen most of it, love some of it
Barbie - heard the song, nothing more
GI Joe - not a clue who/what that is
He-Man/Masters of the universe - as above
Mickey Mouse - I sometimes watched Mickey mouse club house before school, but wasn’t a huge fan
Toy Story - I watched (and liked) the first two
Looney Tunes - liked it
King Kong - I’ve heard of it but don’t know if it’s a toy or a tv show or what
Godzilla - I saw one of the sequels and enjoyed it
Planet of the Apes - never seen it
Mad Max - never seen it, but I live in Australia and like the outback, so this gets quoted at me at least monthly
The Muppets - I think the Muppets had a cameo in toy story or something, but I don’t really know much about it
The Godfather - I really really tried to watch and enjoy this earlier this year. I turned my phone off so I wouldn’t get distracted, I sat down, I ordered a pizza, I did my very best to watch and enjoy it, but I was so mind numbingly bored by the hour and a half mark that I gave up
Ghostbusters - I think I’ve seen bits and pieces
Alien - no, but I have seen ET
Star Trek - I don’t know or care what the difference is between this and star war
Robocop - I watched one of them on late night tv a few years ago, when I was around half the age it was classified for. Barely remember it
Frankenstein - never seen (or read?) it
Dracula - never seen
Tarzan - never seen
Conan the Barbarian - never even heard of it
Jaws - I saw one
Harry Potter - hate it
The Incredible Hulk - hate ir
The Dollars Trilogy - not a clue who or what this is
Sesame Street - don’t like it
The Hannibal Lecter series - don’t know who or what this is
MASH - I’m pretty sure this was always on after the Simpsons finished at 7, and everybody loves Raymond was on before. I didn’t like either of them. But then again, I was 5 or 6 and only interested in the Simpsons and nothing else, so I probably wasn’t the target audience
I pretty much only browse Lemmy on either /local new/top day, or /all new. But to be fair, I mainly only care about local communities (and I’m on a local instance), and memes. I think if I used a general purpose instance, particularly one without its own communities, I would probably used subscribed mostly
I block about 20 or so communities. A few are ideological ones that although I don’t dislike/disagree with, I just don’t want to hear about, a couple of the star trek ones, pretty much anything with “news” or “politics” in the name, since that tends to be very American centric, or in the case of world news, mostly things only Americans would care about, and I also blocked the Baldur’s gate and helldivers communities because they were constantly in my /all feed a while ago. I also block lemmit.online or whatever it is (an entire instance), because it was just reposts of Reddit posts made by a bot which annoyed me when I wanted to search for things
My instance federates with Lemmy World, but because of some technical issue with server lag, we don’t see posts from lemmy.world for about a week (posts in LW communities from non LW users do pop up, but upvotes and sometimes comments don’t federate, so they won’t appear in all unless I scroll really deep). That has the effect of essentially meaning I don’t see any posts in LW communities in /all unless I sort by top month or new
Let me answer that question in a lot less words than the article:
Does a high-quality camera phone always come with a high price tag?
Apparently movie 43 is the only movie I’ve ever saved onto my google watchlist. But I don’t generally save my movies onto watch lists
Who looks at this and thinks it isn’t satire lol? I sometimes struggling with telling satire apart, too, but this is the most obvious piece of satire I’ve seen in a long time.
I wonder if that means we can claim adverse possession
I mostly get my games through steam, which allows you to set multiple library locations, and then asks which drive you want them installed on. Besides that, every game or program installer I’ve ever used has asked me which drive I want it installed onto, although sometimes you need to check the custom install box first
It always makes me chuckle a bit how internet censorship (at least in western countries and on a personal level (school and work networks excluded)) is almost always just done through DNS. I mean I’m sure not going to be the one to tell them how laughably ineffective that is, but it’s just funny.
I live in the country with Ampilatwatja and Jarlmadangah Burru. This is nothing
