The weirdest thing about these is that even with a random orange cat, these comics are very much an unhinged fever dream.

I would like to see Heathcliff with only Heathcliff. He seems to generally be the only character that never adds anything whatsoever.

Adding to this:

America is often the voice of media, being the home of, Hollywood, reality TV as well as the loudest voices on the internet it’s natural that we perceive that to be the home of Alien stories.

Being a ‘wealthy’ country: often a higher employment rate leads to an increase in extra curricular hobbies. Countries with less time to focus on things other than work will also have less time to expand on other interests. This can have a spin off effect of increased time spent day dreaming about lights in the sky.

America is a very new country. There’s lots of vast open nothingness to explore. Considered a ‘frontier’. The concept of unexplored territory and unclaimed space of mystery is very much more engrained in American culture, unlike say anywhere in Europe where every square inch is claimed and has a city within an hour’s drive. All that empty nothingness with strange lights on the horizon can lead to more mysterious musings of what they might be.

Oh good to know. Thanks! I’ll explore that.

Adobe has no time for it, so it ads that annoying extra step when collecting assets. I would appreciate Adobe support for it natively in Pr / Ps / Ae / Me and I’m cool with it.

I should think you can, depending on the wood, many can be toxic.

The bark of a Willow tree is used to make Aspirin, we smoke paper and eat many plants with less woody stems. There are certain other barks and cambium (the soft layer between the bark and the wood) that contain nutrients, such as birch, pine, elm and a few others that have been eaten by our ancestors for centuries and even have medicinal properties. We also grate cinnamon and a few others as spice. Dog food is often bulked up with ash.

The real issue is that the hard cellulose in the actual wood part is not particularly digestible and basically pure fibre and devoid of any real nutrient value. So it would need to be boiled or blended first I imagine, or steeped as a tea. It would be revolting or taste like nothing and probably give you constipation but I doubt you would die.

As a raw bite of a chunk of wood, no. It would be considered inedible.

I think it’s a pudding spoon.

The slightly pointed tip is to aid slicing the pudding, while being assymetrical to allow a right handed person to not get the pointy end pokies.

Marty at 88mph back to MySpace and simpler times. I miss Tom.

The difference betwen 1000ms and 100ms might be massive for gaming or live video chat as that 1 second delay is very noticeable. In terms of viewing a web page, a second to send a request from click will be almost imperceptible. As there is still a few more seconds to load the data that your device anyway. So you are talking about a 5 second wait time or a 4 second wait time. It doesn’t really matter.

The big difference is server load. A quiet server with a fast internet connection doesn’t need to process as many requests and therefore you don’t have to wait in queue. A low server load with a high ping could take a second or two while a server next door to you with 10 seconds worth of requests could take ten seconds.

The ping isn’t the issue as real time delay is not the important factor here.

Try a few instances and see which feel faster. It’s kind of hard to guage, although I imagine someone could build a tool that tests server responsiveness at pulling a request from a sample link and a local link on its own instance and generate a report I guess.

I’m as confused as you are.

Having seen my dogs uncontained levels of excitement and euphoria as well as grumpy and depressed days first hand I would say not.

Please pop a reminder here. Commenting for a bump.

I like ‘burrows’ ‘topics’ and ‘coms’, but as long as people understand, I don’t really care. Be the change you want to see in the world!

Doesn’t look like it. It would be nice if the did in the body

Please stop churning out hundreds of new communities, are you a bot or just a bit over excited? Either way you are doing it all wrong.

Interestingasfuck went nuclear and decided to allow NSFW content and essentially stop moderating, some dad posted that if he got enough upvotes he would post hi hairy butthole, which made it to the front page of r/all where it hovered and winked at world for a while.

I dunno man. That was the first thing that made me actually want to go back. That and the butthole. I definitely regretted the butthole. Not sure what I was expecting. It was a butthole.

Personally, I’m loving Lemmy for what it is and I’m here for the long haul whether or not I continue to scroll Reddit on occasion.

If they roll back, it will be temporary until they fix their app. But this is happening. Either way. If they roll back and start this mess all over again then Lemmy will get a fresh influx of users in a few months which would be fantastic as it will give the communities time to settle in and apps to develop before then. (Sync has already announced it will be developing for Lemmy going forward). If they don’t roll back, then Lemmy will get a second boost in a few weeks and the developer of Sync can continue uninterrupted.

Either way its a win for Lemmy, but I imagine at this point Reddit’s best move is to stick to their guns and become what they want to become. Good for them. I don’t really care .

R/steam has gone pretty literal too

I’m in!
