Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What movies and shows had a positive influence on your life in your childhood?
7·5 months agoI’m picturing a toddler seeing a soldier get beheaded by an arrow from horseback, looks over at Dad for emotional support, and Dad looks on with an approving grin, comfortable that he’s made the right choice of early childhood films.
Also, The Matrix/Terminator as a suggestion for a small child is a big lol.
Howl’s Moving Castle, but really any Hayao Myazaki film.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•People who don't wear earphones outside - why, and what do you do instead?
3·6 months agoIf that feels fine for you then more power to you. I’m just saying why I don’t personally wear headphones in public.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•People who don't wear earphones outside - why, and what do you do instead?
5·6 months agoIt depends how much exposure to Tech you have and whether taking a break is important for you. For most people the exposure to constant stimulus is too much.
Phones and technology have essentially eliminated boredom from our lives, and I don’t think that’s a good thing.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•People who don't wear earphones outside - why, and what do you do instead?
19·6 months agoJust birds chirping, wind blowing, leaves rustling, all as I walked the same path I walk all the time<
This would be one why I don’t wear headphones outside. Hearing the natural ambience of a space is rewarding.
The other personal reason is that I’m in front of a screen about 12 hours a day and crave those few hours of respite from being hooked up to technology.
OpenSUSE TW gang rise up. I also got this black screen issue OP talked about but snapper rollback solved that (for now).

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What's the male version of makeup that makes a man look attractive?
7·7 months agoIronically I think keeping a clean living space and bring kempt is a pretty big attractive quality, so this is a great answer.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What youtuber do you think had the biggest downfall?
4·7 months agoHe’s also a product of toxic gamer culture, the N word is almost like teenagers calling things gay… doesn’t mean they hate homosexuals.
This is not to advocate for what he said at all.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How to learn Dutch? Does anyone have any good sources to recommend?
7·7 months agoI’m very hard of hearing and was at a pub in the Netherlands. I Dutch guy said something to me in a noisy room and it sounded exactly like I had misheard something spoken in English.
Good for you. I broke my GNOME Pop OS build, I assume because of extensions and pop not updating anything for 2 years. GNOME goes against the Linux philosophy of user customisation.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Does anyone know how pointless it is to get all boiled up over things that shouldn't matter to you?
8·8 months agoAlways assume that 20% of comments are made by teenagers.
Haha oh sorry, we don’t have burger king in Western Australia, didn’t recognise it! (It’s called Hungry Jacks or HJ’s here)
And who decides what is right? I’m not being antagonistic on purpose, but anarchy believes in the good of people much more than we have any reason to believe.
I use Gramps and it’s good. Has a Linux client too. My Family Tree is also good but windows only.
What is anarchism?


Exact same boat as you… Urgh. Maybe community drivers are possible?
