I wasn’t “allowed” to watch it, not because my parents had a problem with it but because we didn’t have cable TV. I miss some references other people make about SpongeBob or other Nickelodeon / cable TV stuff, but I’ve never felt like I missed out much. Especially now as an adult, I just get to ask people about something they’re nostalgic for from childhood and have interesting conversations.

I did see half an episode of Nickelodeon Guts once and would have watched the heck out of it if we’d had cable.

I only get dishwasher safe coffee tumblers and I wash them daily. I have enough respiratory goo without adding mold to the mix.

I like that the two in front spread out their fingers so you can count them and see the lack of gross deformities. That’s the good AI stuff.

Eh? They have to watch the movies. They can only vote in a category they’ve watched all movies in. It’s an honor system though so I assume some lie about what they’ve watched.

This is newer, not sure if it changed over the last year or earlier. Previously it was even more honor system “vote in the categories you feel qualified in”.

I try not to enrich creators who are bad. Like Polanski and Weinstein and Whedon and Besson and Rowling and Gaiman. I might watch/read old stuff, but I’ll avoid spending any money on it.

Then there’s people who aren’t rapists and abusers and virulently homophobic but are still not great. I’m thinking YT creators who pull dumb and mean pranks, or just revel in the more negative aspects of human nature. I don’t watch them, but mostly because I don’t enjoy that sort of content. It makes me depressed and sad. Since I don’t like that sort of content anyway, it’s hardly an effort. Same with MAGA bro podcaster types; I don’t enjoy that garbage so “boycotting” it really just means going about my life per usual.

Still excited to see The Bride!. The negative reviews aren’t turning me off, I assume a good portion of that is because it has feminist themes and the rest is because it’s not a simple monster flick like G Del Toro’s. I know what to expect from a Maggie Gyllenhaal film, plus Jessie Buckley and Ethan Hawke? Sign me right up.

Also looking forward to Sheep Detectives. I love cozy murder mysteries; Hugh Jackman and Emma Thompson are perfect casting.

Robert Eggers Werewulf.

(US context) The advice I got was that every marriage has a prenup. If the couple doesn’t write it, it’s just the default prenup their state wrote and it’s going to be crap for both people.

I love data, but I stopped to think about what I would actually do with the data Whoop provides. I wouldn’t use Whoops workout recommendations, I wouldn’t alter my training plans much off their derived metrics. I decided a far simpler watch with heart rate monitor and zone would be plenty. A monthly subscription and the amount of data shared with them were also strong disincentives. I don’t need yet another company tracking me and selling my details off to who knows who.

Well. That’s an interesting entry into film acting. I wish her the best but I think that’s a steep uphill battle.

reported on by several news outlets, which is prediction markets are accurate for predicting events.

Is this a function of your algorithm and mine? I’m skeptical and all my news sources align with that, I get little if any content pushing for polymarket et al in a positive manner.

I just wish I could find an RSS feed of it.

Bone spur recovery treatments and whose daddy is more alpha.

You’re putting words in my mouth. I didn’t say “instant” and I didn’t state the general definitiveness off a single comment you are trying to box me in with. “What’s a chud?” “This guy is an example of a chud”. It’s no deeper than that.

We’re not on reddit here, we don’t have to turn this into a place that wallows down conversations with that sort of crap.

I skimmed the wikipedia articles for both hard and soft scifi, specifically the representative works sections. Both list Jack Vance’s The Languages of Pao. And that pretty much covers my inability to differentiate between hard and soft and par-boiled, stir-fried, fluffy sci-fi.

No, and doubly so on the second. SEO = search engine optimization. Big corps pay people to manipulate themselves into the top hits of searches; I don’t see Lemmy ever doing that.

The top hits will be from companies that scrape the Fediverse for content then poop AI-generated slop into “top hit” positions they paid Google for.

Pedantic Esquire points out the prompt didn’t say the chud themselves has to be the one uttering the phrase. A phrase stated by someone else about the chud still reveals the subject’s chud-ness.

This dude’s giving “chud” at best. I can think of worse names.
