Well the other kids thought those of us playing Dungeons and Dragons in the early 80s were nerds. Didn’t help that we also made the best grades. We also didn’t dress like the cool kids. It’s hard to separate all of the factors that caused us to get bullied.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•You are the fourth Wise Man that nobody talks about. What did you attempt to bring the baby Jesus that they cut you out of all the stories?English

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How did Gen X/Millennials failed at tackling the political issues they criticised in the 90'sEnglish
14·2 months agoGenX has never had nor will it ever have significant political power. Outnumbered by older and younger generations. Also, I doubt we’re very unified in our political beliefs and asperations since we tend to be pretty independent and mostly want to avoid attracting too much attention.

Comic Strips@lemmy.world•They weren't afraid to tell it like it is ... In a private group chatEnglish
21·3 months agoFrom the same party that wants to charge minority children as adults if they misbehave. Actual adults are just kids though.
Only good Nazi is a dead Nazi.
Now I’m picturing a T-rex doing a Naruto run. I’m not sure I will ever be able to take T-rex seriously again.
8,000 species of termites survived the flood, implying that Noah had them on his wooden boat. Of course, Noah is an idiot.
The best part is that the number sent to your phone doesn’t match and neither advances past the verification.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How different do you reckon the world would be if, instead of voting someone in, elections were about voting everyone else off until one stands victorious?English
6·3 months agoMy solution to politics: if 50,000 people vote that we should execute you, we execute you. Pretty soon there would be no politicians left.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you feel AI is going to be as bad as the movies say?English
6·3 months agoIt will be worse than the movies because they don’t portray how every mundane thing will somehow be worse. Tech support? Worse. Customer service? Worse. Education? Worse. Insurance? Worse. Software? Worse. Health care? Worse. Mental health? Worse. Misinformation? Pervasive. Gaslighting? Pervasive.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your internet White-Whale?English
3·3 months agoA recording of University of Oklahoma legend, Brian Bosworth, ranting about the University of Texas. I remember him saying, “I hate cows. I hate orange.” Pretty sure I originally heard the rant on AM 1310 The Ticket in the late 1990s. I have searched a few times over the years without finding it. Every year that passes makes me feel less likely to find it.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What the fuck is existence? What even is the truth? How does one know their parents are even real, and not just another actor in an IRL "Truman Show". Isn't history just another story?English
2·3 months agoI think you would enjoy the concept of solipsism. We’re all just thinking computers driving around skeletons with flesh armor. Maybe our flesh mechs are part of the simulation too.
I am guessing none of these guys will work for “equity.”
I have been teaching myself rust. Rewriting this wheel in rust will be a good exercise for me…
Now that I am 95% done, I have lost interest in this project and have started another playthrough of Baldur’s Gate 3. Maybe I will come back and finish it at some point.

My sloc is amazing. It works (unless you care about performance) and AI might even be trustworthy to continue the pattern.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How would you reach in this situation?English
6·5 months agoBack during the early days of COVID I seriously considered clubbing a moron over the head from behind who was hassling a little grocery store woman who was just trying to do her job and get him to comply with the store’s masking policy. I circled around behind him and had grabbed a heavy metal can of pineapple juice. Fortunately, he left when she told him to leave cause I wasn’t sure if she was going to be willing to help me drag his fat ass to my truck so I could dispose of his body.
