A cinema chain where I live did a LOTR marsthon not too long ago, it was so wholesome to see all the fans gathered up and clapping at all the important moments, it kinda felt like watching it for the first time
I agree 100%, but it's important to note that it's a very difficult issue. Whether someone actually wants to die or if they're mentally ill and are making a terrible irreversible mistake is often quite a tough line to draw, making this a very complex problem to solve.
The EU needs to wake up and go hard on companies and industries. No mercy, no half-assing, just legislate the absolute shit out of them for once so that maybe our children can survive and live in not so terrible conditions, because not so terrible is the best we can hope for at this point.
The rest of the world too obviously, but the EU seems the most likely to do so.
Because they're causing this shit for decades now, solely because of their greed. If most of them suddenly have a change of heart and decide to put their power to help the world then opinions about them will improve, until then it's pretty justifiable to want to lynch those responsible one by one like the unhinged murderers they are.
This, so much. I don't mind porn but I do mind it popping up unexpectedly while browsing all instances in public. There's so much of it relative to other content that it feels like Lemmy is just used as a porn repository at the moment, I need to find more magazines to sub to
It's already causing massive geopolitical changes.. No one can say for sure where it all leads
Out of the pretty small number of database systems I've used:
- Postgres: Pretty standard choice, can't go wrong with it
- MySQL/MariaDB: Also very safe choice, I feel like it's more feature rich than Postgres but I'm not sure
- Oracle: It reeks of proprietary bloat and it's unnecessarily different than the previous two in some things, but you can get some official enteprise support if you're a company
- Influx: It solves a specific problem (time series) but it's very cool, modern and with api support for many languages
- Microsoft Excel: Obviously the best choice
I'm in my 20s and I've always said "finished the game", I agree "beat" feels odd with the way gaming has changed nowadays.
Back then pretty much every game took dedication and skill to finish, so "beat" made sense
Duckduckgo usually, but if I want to be sure or I can't find something then Google
Not specifically into japanese metal, but Band-Maid and Babymetal are awesome
Another useful definition that comes up is "Federation". As I understand it's referring to the whole set of mini-Reddits for example, and multiple Federations exist in the Fediverse, correct me if I'm wrong.
What a fucking dumpster fire of a comment section lmao
