  • One must imagine him... unsatisfied?

  • How come there is enough asphalt for speed bumps, but not enough to fill potholes ?
  • Most people don't know this, but speed bumps are actually hollow. They use a balloon to make the shape, then pour a thin layer of asphalt over it for aesthetic reasons. This saves money on asphalt, which is popular with city councils, so the asphalt is typically saved for more speed bumps rather than filling potholes.

  • Yeah that's my general go-to, just wondering if I could be doing better and these were some S-tier jokers that I'd completely overlooked because they don't seem great at first glance. Glad to know I'm doing okay!

    Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019) shows the masterful camera work of Quentin Tarantino, as he films this iconic scene one-handed.

    Absolutely brilliant 👌

    First build in a hot minute, any suggestions?

    https://pcpartpicker.com/list/YBpXN6

    I'll be using it mostly for gaming, possibly self-hosting various things as I think about them. I'd like it to be mildly future-proof, but I'd also like to cut the price down a bit. Right now it's going to cost basically my whole tax refund, and if possible, I'd like to save some of it to further my education.

    I'll be using Linux (don't know what distro yet, but that's another post for another /c/), hence the all-AMD build.

    Thanks in advance!

    How to find saved comments

    I can see saved posts all day, but saved comments, well that's an issue. It was easy on the previous iteration, just wondering why I can't find it now.

    How to search within a specific community?

    On Boost for Reddit, this was the feature I liked the most. Is it just not implemented yet?

    Making a meme out of whatever Star Trek episode I care to watch.

    I was gonna shout out everyone in this community, but I figured out that you were all sus, so this is the meme.

    How to change default home

    My current "default home" when you open the app or click the home button is set to "Subscribed Top Six Hour". I would like to change that to "All Top Six Hour", but I can't seem to find where to do this. Android app, btw.

    Would a federated dating site work well? What would it look like?

    Basically title, every bit of online dating nowadays is either Match or Meta, and we're all about breaking corporate chains right?

    So these are the thoughts I had:

    1. Matches based on simple user selection: age range, lifestyle, hobbies etc. None of that dumb algorithm stuff that makes you reset your profile every month.

    2. ActivityPub protocol so that anyone can run their own instance, but can also be blocked if anything heinous happens.

    3. E2EE for messaging (and anything else if it's possible).

    4. Someone wrote an open-source anti-CSAM script for Lemmy recently, I hope we could adapt that to our use.

    5. Just, like, everyone have a good time on this app, we're here for love lol

    I am not a coder, so I would have no idea how to do this, but I wonder about the interest in such a creation. Maybe some of you out there could make something I could use to get a date (pls).
