Less chat bots on Lemmy, and they seem to be easily identifiable and ignored/reported.

Lemmy isn't quite at that sweet spot where there are enough daily users to get niche content and information from a group of knowledgeable people - but some communities seem to be quite active and helpful already.

I'd love to get to the point where we have a big science/history community and get some non-celebrity AMA's that have genuine interaction.

I'm more than happy for Lemmy to stay "underground" for a good while, slowly building communities. Once things hit a critical mass and wind up on corporate radar, lemmy will get swarmed and another migration will happen with the same core groups that joined lemmy early.

Honestly, that's a pretty great looking setup, wonder how it fares in the rain.

Add a couple windows (optional) with a few cottage core flannel throw pillows and you've got a million dollar cottage in Ontario.

To be fair, police don't really make it a habit of enforcing any laws, and if they do accomplish something by mistake they love catch and release

"The only shared reality that society is allowed to have is Trump's subjective interpretation of reality."

The crazy part is, that MAGAts want Trump to be the sole source of truth probably more than even Trump does.

Probably the same mentality as taxes/healthcare

It's always "I shouldn't have to pay for everyone else's healthcare 🤬🤬🤬"

But never "everyone pays less than they already are into healthcare and the actual service becomes free for everyone but wealthy people don't make billions of dollars off your need to live"

I feel like his advice is really only applicable if the tasks are received pre-gamified, otherwise it's just the same task with double the work:

Here's a list of tasks

but it's boring and tedious

use the content of the list to create a game with structure that ties individually completed tasks to generate automatic, immediate, output/result/gratification

Begin accomplishing gamified list tasks <---- (should be starting here)

Finish quickly due to gamification.

That whole approach ain't gonna work on someone with ADHD. If it isn't received pre-gamified, I'm not gonna do a bunch of extra work before I can start the actual work.

"The hack to being unable to start a task, is to start an additional, more complicated task" - No

"The best way to get an ADHD brain to quickly accomplish simple task lists is by having accomplishments provide immediate results/rewards" - Yes

Look into drinking extra water so you don't accidentally brick your kidneys!

Also, you can't just talk about being addicted to chewable vitamin C tablets without sharing what you think are the best tasting citrus tablets!

Obviously butcher hates Homelander given their past, but Butcher initially does have almost a form of respect for Homelander in season 1.

Homelander is "the only one" (supe) not drinking/drugs/sex in the supe clubs etc, and his public image is still fairly spotless early in season 1.

Soldier Boy only loves himself, and would consider Homelander either a disappointment if he is weaker than soldier boy, or a threat to be eliminated if he's stronger than solder boy.

Stan just wants a predictable product that's easy to manage. He would prefer obedience from Homelander, but probably wouldn't respect him for being that strong but entirely pliable.

Maybe Stan respects Homelander if Homelanders true motive was to be good to others (and if Homelander wasn't an actual idiot). But doubtful the other two ever would.

Damn, aquaculture looks like it absolutely stopped an increase of wild catch, which is impressive!

I am surprised that wild catch numbers didn't really ever drop, given the massive increase of aquaculture (also surprised at aquacultures plateau).

I wonder how accurate the wild catch figures are considering the amount of illegal fishing done. Maybe the plateau of wild catch has less to do with aquaculture and more to do with the ocean not having any more to give 💀

Isn't this how Walmart failed in Germany?

Basically the "roadmap to success" used in other countries failed in Germany/Europe mostly because that "success" was only achievable through "human rights abuses" and "violating labor laws" that aren't troublesome in parts of the world where labour rights are neutered at every opportunity, and large portions of the population people are too impoverished to afford necessities elsewhere

I've wondered about this, killing the "company" never really seemed like that big of a deal, as the structure (both physical building/tool/systems and operationally) don't simply vanish. You still have the knowledge and skillsets in the population, and the supply chains still exist.

The real problem with these "too big to fail" entities is that the people pulling the levers that cause failures never have any consequences whatsoever.

Yeah, you'll always need banks, energy, transportation, defence etc - operational mechanisms for exchanging goods, building, buying etc will never go away or 'fail' - but their operational practices absolutely could and should change

I'm so sick of the wealth class abusing absolutely everything to guarantee themselves more money than they could ever spend.

I doubt it'll ever actually happen, but I'd love to see news/media stop using (R) for Republicans and change it up to (W) for weird.

Similar to when (probably satire) Ted Cruz was listed as as (R - Cancun), can't seem to find the image I'm thinking of, so if anyone else has it please link!
