Am I wrong for thinking article titles like this are demeaning?

    My instinct would be to click just to find out what exactly is "too sexy" for chauvinists. Same logic applies to the original post's article I guess.

    I think these articles exploit this instinct. And I'm pretty sure it works for all kinds of people. When you put an opinion piece in some other people's mouth, everyone will want to find out if the opinion makes sense to them or if it's completely outrageous.

  • What would be a solution to the ever increasing delivery industry?

    My idea of "fuck cars" is more about reduction of traffic and infrastructure, but services like buses, ambulances, fire-trucks and such may continue operating if needed. In this instance I don't see why, a motorbike or an electric scooter couldn't be used for delivery services, in case of food; or your regular ups/fedex/dhl/usps truck for packages and letters. I'm pretty sure that they are just a minority of the traffic in urban areas.

    My main gripe are individual drivers and commuters that take-up a lot of space, create a lot of traffic and are needlessly polluting the environment. I also take issue with car centric design, since everything is incredibly far away or too dangerous to be reachable by bike.

    Perhaps we could have very specific licences given to these service providers that would require their companies to pay a hefty amount to operate and issue. And in case of emergency vehicles there could be a government discount or something. That way you "fuck" cars with policy. idk

    You know, I remember there being a video about this. Like a long format video essay in which nintendo was the last videogame company to be mentioned and the sin was pride.

    I don't remember who made the video, but I think it was super eyepatch wolf or another youtuber with a similar style. I tried looking for the video but I couldn't find it. It was really good.

    I remember EA was greed, Valve was Sloth. And l think Bethesda was lust(? (Because of constant harrassment allegations in their offices or something like that), but the narrator kept reminding the audience that all game companies were all guilty of the same sins.

    T'was really interesting

    The title, worded like that, sounds like some brave man waving a sword at a mighty dragon...

    Upon reading the article the situation is more like a bafoon waving a toothpick at an elder god

  • This is my latest attempt at reaching whatever's at the bottom. I've learned from my previous mistakes and I believe I've got a better character this time. I even brought two akhs, a blessed one and a regular one (both lost in this same level). I'm still running out of food and health potions very quickly in the last levels. The bosses are really taxing in terms of health potions, and exploring takes a lot of time, which means I'm using many food items. Here are my items and skills: ![Screenshot_20240903-161141](https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemy.lol%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2Fa3c33a13-6c80-4120-bb62-81e3fed8855e.jpeg) ![Screenshot_20240903-161228](https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemy.lol%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F1bbc3794-8fb5-4a25-acbb-61c10af371c8.jpeg)

    So, I've spent about 7 hours in this game and dying at this point was really painful, after killing the DM-300 and surviving the dwarven city (which was incredibly hard) I died at the hands of some monk. No food, no health potions, nada. I'm playing as a rogue assassin, I had got a level 8 evasion ring, which I was hoping would make it impossible for enemies to hit me. I also had level 2 plate armour with viscosity. Looking back this was definitely my fault, I think I was too careless in the dwarven city. I lost two ankhs in one level. Any advice?? This is the farthest down I've got.

    Don't mind me, I'm just empathy and solidarity posting

    Staying at a hospital with my friend who is suffering from leukemia, I've come to the realization of how fragile we are, yet it makes me feel hopeful about humanity. I've seen lots of people and heard lots of stories. The patient next door (we are in a secluded area) hit his head and is in a coma. His family members come to tend to him and speak to him every day. Listening faintly to them singing and speaking brings tenderness to my heart. Seeing my friend smile and feel better after playing videogames and conversing together is truly priceless. She's such a sweet person. Despite the adversities and injustices of life everything's been working out for her and she's recovering, she'll hopefully be out in less than a week. I think empathy and solidarity are some of the greatest things we have as a species. I wish more people could see that. Medicine as a whole is pretty cool, and it's just something I've never quite thought about, or at least it hadn't quite had an impact on me before because it's so commonplace. We dedicate a lot of effort and resources to helping people, and to say this is highly commendable would be a huge understatement. I don't really know where to post this, it's like 4:30 am and I'm feeling a bit sensible. My friend's lost two very important people in her life within last year, this isn't the first time she's had leukemia, and these few months have been incredibly hard for her. Despite this, she keeps on going, she keeps smiling and laughing, and I really admire her. I hope the patient next door recovers and gets to be with his loving family once more. I hope no one here has to go through anything similar, and if you are, I hope everything works out in the end. If you've read this far, I appreciate that you took some time of your day to read my 4 am ramblings. I hope I've been of some help. If anything I want people to feel united, for we may have different nationalities and languages, but we feel the same feelings, our hearts speak a collective language. Have a lovely life.

    Hello fellow lemmings! As mentioned in the title, I'm barely just getting started with the self hosting thing and such. I have a small personal project for which I'd like to self host my own "ugly-90's-HTML" blog (I just love the look and feel you know). I've got a desktop machine that I could use as a server, and I also just purchased my own domain from cloudflare (for commitment), but I'm a bit stuck on the actual "putting-my-stuff-online" thing and I don't want to do anything stupid. I know there's a lot of learning I still need to do, but that's the reason I'm starting this project. Any help would be welcomed. I have 3 cents of basic networking knowledge (I made my own Ethernet cable conection to my gateway :D); I'm using a linux distro as my main desktop; I have created an ssh tunnel with cloudflare so far, and I'm following a little html+css tutorial. The thing is, I've found so many different ways of putting things online, I'm a bit dizzy. I would like something that will teach me the fundamentals without holding my hand too much (a la "next, next, next, confirm, finish"), you know? I mean, I'm learning by essentially making a 90's website... So, yeah. Thanks in advance <3 [TL;DR] Me want make 90's website, don't know how
