I looked him up and was surprised that he was listed as ‘Shazam!’ star when he just had a bit part called ‘man in the street’ in the second movie. Then I scrolled further and saw that he was the star of the 1974 TV series.

It’s a frequently used click bait tactic to use the pattern “X happens as Y is going on” to imply an interesting link between two things that simply doesn’t exist. It leaves the impression that one thing causes the other without actually stating it.

Very frustrating.

Unfortunately, some people in the UK believed that we could negotiate better international deals alone instead of with the additional buying power of 27 other countries backing us up.

No. I think that only one or two ever went and they agreed to go.

That’s a fair point and it is the latter.

I have only posted one question about a problem that I had and I got an answer that resolved my issue.

Unfortunately, I’m not in a position to help build up the community. I have a very small and basic setup and don’t have time to build it up let alone make posts about building it up.

You seem to have got your knickers in a twist over something and I don’t understand what.

Let me summarise the conversation from my point of view. Someone asked what subreddits kept someone on Reddit. I made the comment that a particular sub that I liked on Reddit was more active than the equivalent communities on Lemmy. It wasn’t a complaint but a statement of fact about what made the transition more difficult for me which I made to contribute to the discussion. Then you seem to have taken that as a complaint and taken offence at it for some reason.

A sample size of one isn’t sufficient to conclude that every question gets answered.

Also, I didn’t say that it was inactive. I said that it was nowhere near as active as Reddit.

There are about two or three posts per week which includes all the release announcements for home assistant and various components.

On Reddit there was at least five or ten times that activity with posts every day including questions, automations and dashboard ideas.

Existing games built on Unity will also be hit with Runtime Fees if they meet the thresholds starting January 1.

How can you have a deal in place and just say “you’re giving me more money” and think that that’s ok?

I am altering the deal, pray I don’t alter it any further. - Vader

It’s taking the piss out of Andrew Tate and the gullible guys that he’s convinced are superior to women.

I used to be really keen on Teslas but a combination of Elon and stories of poor quality and after sales support have killed the brand for me.

I like the scope creep there:

1. Programming language (singular)
2. All programming languages and related knowledge
3. Add in AI, ML and data structures

There’s a few Ts in that comment. There are one or two people who replace “th” with that symbol in the communities that I subscribe to.

I also find it mildly infuriating.

I believe that ignorance leads people to think / claim that they have OCD. I used to think that I had OCD but after watching a documentary on it I realise that I’m just a little particular about how things should be.

President Zelenskyy could have ended the war many months ago if he’d just agreed to all of Putin’s demands. Who knew?

Same if they say to disable your ad blocker.

So they’re going to sanction India in the same week that they did a deal with Putin to supply diesel.

I don’t see the problem with this search result. You searched for Lemmy clients and the first link gives a list of Lemmy clients for Android. It happens to be on Reddit but it does match your search.

She’s an amazing woman. It must be so hard to go through this in private let alone with all this news coverage.

Even if it was true, why is he carving his name into anything that he doesn’t own!

She initially thought the email was fake, but after realising it was from Ticketmaster she said she does not intend to buy tickets from the company in the future, despite being a loyal customer.

Loyal customer pretty much means the same as regular concert goer.

I go to quite a few concerts and all of my tickets are bought from Ticketmaster in some form. I wouldn’t call myself loyal to them as I’m forced to choose between Ticketmaster or no concert.
