So no more random sports posts at the top of every thread? That was a weird bug.

How to open a textbook
One opening line that's always stuck with me is:
"The doctor said I was a paranoid schizophrenic. Well, he didn't actually say it, but we knew he was thinking it."

Later generations will have less attachment to how things were when they grew up because everything changes a lot faster.
Nostalgia's never as good as it used to be.

Meta Threads engagement has dropped 50% in a week
Is it because it's filled to the brim with old memes? That would make me want to leave a new place. Tried kbin social the other day and the first three pages were all full of the old memes being posted here and i spent half an hour or so trying to figure out how to filter them out but couldn't so I just uninstalled.

What are these tiny dots in eggplants (might need to zoom in)? My wife keeps finding these in most of the eggplants she cuts, and is concerned if this is something bad, or just something normal.

What movie(s) did you watch 10+ times and offered something new with each view?
The Big Lebowski. Every time.
He just picks things up through the movie and uses them later. One of the best examples starts in the opening scene of the movie where he's buying milk and paying with a check, as he's writing it out there's a t.v. behind the cashier playing GWB Sr saying "This aggression against Kuwait will not stand", then way later in the movie someone is shouting at him and he uses the line "this aggression will not stand" and you know he's picked it up from that earlier scene and used it again. The movie is full of this kind of callback and interaction.

Second largest Lemmy instance preemptively un-friends Facebook

My (limited) understanding is that if you (we) block other instances locally, that won't stop meta (or whoever) from accessing your (our) information and posts.

This is probably the worst take I've ever heard. It's actually amazing how much i disagree with almost everything you've written here.
And, Tom Hanks is still acting, Tom Hanks is literally this generations Tom Hanks.
There's so much excellent acting and directing in the world at the moment i just can't fathom how you have come to your conclusions.

Look i'm not that much of a curmudgeon that i begrudge people enjoying themselves and getting along, I just need to be able to easily filter content i have no interest in, memes/macros being one of those. I'm still accessing lemmy through mobile browser and can skim past all that quite easily on here, but kbin blew every image up automatically and it was 90% of the content and i couldn't figure out how to turn it off.
