What the heck happened to American eggs?

What happens if you do? Account creation seems to be having trouble at the moment.

Canada, that actually has land really close to Greenland: haha let’s play a silly war of flags and alcohol over an island no one cares about, it’ll be fun.

The US, that has absolutely nothing to do there: all your base are belong to us

I hate this so much. My Bitwarden password is the one thing I know. I’m not confident I could ever learn another password, especially one I barely ever need.

And 2FA? What if my phone breaks? My 2FA recovery codes are in Bitwarden.

Ugh. I have no idea what I’m going to do.

I’d try to use that time to study a language I’ve always wanted to speak.

I’d probably fail and do something utterly unproductive, but maybe you wouldn’t.

Deport all the nazis? Sure!

I used Voyager for a while and here are the issues i noticed before I switched to another app (which also has issues):

1. Gestures for actions tend to take big motions, bigger than is comfortable to me, and the difference between actions is small. Like, I need to swipe very far (and not too fast), and then within a few millimeters, it goes from upvote to downvote. In the end i was just wishing for buttons considering how much work was to reply or downvote.
2. The combo of auto-marking posts as read when scrolling and hiding read posts doesn’t work too well. I frequently refresh my feed to only see stuff I’ve already seen and the posts stick around until I manually click then, go back and refresh. When I drag down at the top of my feed to refresh, I want to see posts I haven’t seen before. Refreshing 2-3 times and seeing nothing new…i don’t think anyone expects that from a social media app. Nearly all Lemmy apps seem to have trouble with this behaviour.
3. I don’t think it’s a great idea to make “click = comment and thread disappears” the default. I often did it by accident and was very disorienting.
4. I would often accidentally swipe/touch something, not realize what, and end up at my feed, the post I was looking at entirely gone, and no easy way to go back. To this day I’m not sure how I did that, but each time it a bummer to give up the post I was reading.

TIL! Thanks.

Whoever made this seems to think tonnes are Imperial…? Isn’t a ton basically just a megagram? Or am I confused?

If only I could pass out on command.

Looks like she’s impaling him with a clarinet.

Oh yeah, I’m realizing this late but I’ve got a feeling you might like twists on the magical girl genre like Mahou Shoujo Ikusei Keikaku. Puella Magi Madoka Magica was among the first and is all a fan favourite, but it’s not the one I like the most.

Some of them dabble in physical therapy and do some useful stuff. I think that may be why they keep a better reputation than, say, homeopaths.

I don’t get it

I choose to read that headline as “woe upon us; whales may now swim at an unlimited speed”. Funny to imagine.

I feel really good when I can skip his YouTube ads. So there’s that.

Oof, one more really bad word I now know about, I guess.

Mangaka. Author.

Akagi is a mahjong manga. It assumes you know mahjong from the beginning. I wouldn’t recommend it unless you really like the game. I barely made it 6 pages into the manga after someone gifted me a volume for Japanese practice.

If you want to see a lighter take on gambling, maybe Kakegurui or No Game No Life.

If you want death game stuff, maybe Btooom!. Mirai Nikki is also a classic in the same vein. Much more over the top would be the Fate series (Fate Stay Night, Fate Unlimited Blade Works, Fate Zero, etc.) Much less intense but still enjoyable was Death Parade. And we’re getting pretty far from the theme but theoretically Sword Art Online checks the death game box; reviled by true connoisseurs 🍷, I still think it’s plenty enjoyable if you don’t think about it too deeply.

If you’re looking for something in the “psychological” category, I can recommend Psycho-Pass for something serious with action, Oshi no ko for something serious with drama ,or Kaguya-sama wa kokurasetai! for a lighter take.

Those game wikis are basically the only ones I use an adblocker on. They’re basically unusable on mobile.
