Haha, well now. We call this the act of mating. But there are several other very important differences between human beings and animals that you should know about.

Ha ha ha, I’m in danger

A/S/L?

I’d counter that point though, and say ‘then you should be/stay on topic’ and not forking the discussion into other topics. It’s certainly not difficult to create a new topic about a related discussion, and if it interests the original posters then yay, they might join in, but either way you aren’t cluttering up the original discussion.

I see forums as more… professional? Whereas layouts like we have here are much more ‘lol memes’. The two types serve two different users.

I spent a good chunk of my teen years on forums and it was definitely a direct, ‘here is A Thing and I want to discuss A Thing’ conversations. Lemmy/reddit comments are like ‘I have this one thought of a kinda-tangible idea for A Thing 2’ and it’s just… It’s not ‘bad’, but it’s most definitely scatterbrain thoughts, just shared for other wandering thoughts to collide. Scribbled brainstorming vs careful planning, I guess? I dunno.

Maybe I’m just old. Blah.

If only we had a system where anyone could report anyone… Maybe have a link that says ‘report’… And we could have it on every topic, and every reply, so it would be easy to do… And after a number of reports by users of sufficient account age and in good standing, the reported comment would be moved to a quarantine so if the admins are unavailable, the forum can operate on autopilot to keep the users safe…

Ah well, nobody would ever implement that wild idea… sigh

impossible

Me, following several forums and the topics within: uh

You win this time, bigger thing!

But what if I like my bottoms chubby?

So we made lossy the norm, but - let me blow your mind - what if we make lossy BIGGER?

They have figured out time travel and now we are all very fucked

Okay

thinks I’m getting an old nas (synology diskstation manager v5)

gets crippling anxiety instead

Even simpler: shotgun blasts the physical machine

It’s more fun and exciting too!

Esports/mlg. I actually wanted to explore video gaming as a competitive career as a kid, throughout my teens and a bit beyond. Disability and near-death struck at 21 and dashed that, though. I still play rather well for racing games, but fps I struggle competitively due to partial blindness and loss of the use of my right hand. I use an ambidextrous Logitech G903, using both sets of side buttons (both left and right side), if you’re wondering; all critical functions and movements go on the mouse, with secondary (like map, equip/use, toss item, inventory/hotbar…) remaining on the keyboard.

Also, while not a sport…

The AI was the shitty code we wrote along the way

WKYK, oh yeah
