Dishonorable mention: https://youtu.be/O4uggI5hDGY

I'm interested in hearing what Lemmings think about hunting. I started hunting deer years ago because I wanted to be a part of the process, like if I couldn't handle killing and gutting an animal I shouldn't be eating meat. IMO, it's much more humane than what factory farmed animals endure. Less suffering overall than most natural deaths. Overpopulation causes disease and starvation and we killed off their predators, so we kind of owe it to nature to fill the ecological gap.

Also, I fucking love it. I watch the sun rise, think, record birds I've seen, think, watch squirrels play, think a bit more, and sometimes, I get some food.

Idk. I'm not looking for approval or trying to change your mind, just wondering what people think.

Does anyone have any good alternatives to Walmart, Amazon, or Target? I'm looking for a general store that sells household products and preferably isn't owned by a billionaire or a company that adds to our surveillance state... So does anyone have any online, or physical, alternatives?

what is happening and why and does beans have a meaning

Personally, I've listened to "You Sexy Thing" by Hot Chocolate three or four times. ("I believe in miracles...")

i think it is maybe one of those:

Not Built In The Ghouls Lair

Built By Normals, For Normals

Also, are you stoked? Seems like two of the biggest/most anticipated releases in years.

My copy of Zelda shipped. First time I have bought a game on release date in several years. Not too interested in GTA 6, but I will probably get it in a year or two.

I usually look at "Local" or "All", but that's still only what is published on or is federated by my instance. What effective ways of discovering new content across all of the Fediverse do you know?

If it was literally impossible to make any profit off AI, how do you think things would look like now?

We gotta agree on one thing that old Reddit was peak. Like you can actually ask questions and get help. But it’s so heavily moderated now and I hate it. It shadow banned my accounts 3 times and had to create 3 accounts. And wdym that you need certain amount of karma to be able to post, like what if a new person just made account to ask for help and they can’t post cuz they’re new and don’t got enough of that bs karma. I hate that it’s not making internet a nice place.

So, I got fed and started looking for alternatives and found Lemmy. WHY DIDN’T I KNEW ABT THIS EARLIER. People here seem nicer than Reddit and no moderation stuff like Reddit and blaa blaa glazing.

So far I’m enjoying Lemmy. Also i wanted to asked but client for IOS. I tried Voyager, didn’t like the UI and that swipe feature (it’s good but just not my type). Rn using Mlem, the UI is nice but i can’t get used how the chat looks, I’m Reddit like chat. Is there any Client for IOS that got what i need?

Do you think it's essential to keep a solid buffer between you and disaster or did you sacrifice that to the gods of "living life to the fullest right here and now"? Or mayhaps you're struggling to keep a boat afloat as it is and going cheaper isn't really an option for you as you are already at the timit of cheapness for your specific situation and saving seems like an unachievable goal, becauase everything goes to surviving?

I'm here from Reddit. They banned me for absolutely no reason. That's frustrating. How works Lemmy ?

I’ll start it off:

• Windows is a perfectly fine OS, as long as you use Enterprise or Server (Home and Pro are crap)
• Self driving cars are the future since the US won’t fully embrace mass transit

I was wondering if there are places similar to discord servers where you can just hang out and talk while you are gaming or doing something else.

But that don't require you to sign up with personal information, ask for face identification or track you for advertising.

How do you have fun? Can you describe how you spend your free time IN DETAIL? (don't just say "I play basketball" or "I go to a bar", describe the how you go there, how you prepare, how youtalk to people there, as in exemplifying phrases and the flow of the conversation, probiding chunks of the real dialogue).

This happened just an hour ago or so. Went in to a local grocery shop and grabbed some carrots, oranges and bananas. Paid in cash and went out my way to put everything in my bicycle's panniers and... there she was going in her own bicycle. It was like in the Fellowship of the Ring when the hobbits see Arwen. At that very instant I saw her face my jaw dropped, almost literally, and I think she noticed I was mesmerized or something because she did a gesture of like trying to look my way but doing a gesture of "what a creep" or something. After 5 seconds or so she was gone and most probably I won't ever see her again.

How do you get over something like that? I'm still so mesmerized I can't believe a human being so ridiculously gorgeous can exist in the same plane as an ugly weirdo like me.

They'd be like chicken eggs but proportional to your size. It just happens regardless of if you're planning to eat them or not. Taste would be very similar to chicken eggs.

It's "non-profit" reddit clone, but seems nice. Looks like a cool alpha, and I'd love to get an invite from a current user.

Just asking! Thanks!

Hello all!

I sometimes see (short) videos successfully posted on lemmy, and the ActivityPub protocol should support posting audio, can you post mp3s?

If so, how? If not why?

PS. American friends, Get out and vote!

Not asking about achievements in work/love/health/etc. but about your esence as a person. Like how you wish people would describe you.

Now that there is some accountability in the USA, when will the arrest warrants be issued for all the ICE criminals?
