I love watching their infighting.

I really hope you're not American. I see some poor child sitting at the top of the stairs cheering on their drunken parents domestic dispute.

Definitely less evil, towards Americans. But they've made vast strides in outsourcing evil through globalization and the military industrial complex.

I think America has been in a deep moral crisis since it's inception; should we be evil, or just a little evil. It's easy to get people to agree to just a wee bit of more evil and here we are 200 years later with the magic of compound interest.

I even saw it on TV!

Seems like a neat thing! Is it $20,000?

I guessed its because the purchase leaves a sour taste in your mouth.

I'm that level of user that will block the ever loving shit out of everything but not do much to make it better. The problem is that once you've blocked everything you have pretty much zero interest in there isn't much left on lemmy. Still better than reddit though.

Sounds like you found your million dollar idea! Now its as easy as cashing all your cheques! Congratulations!

Yes, but I'm talking about mass adoption. Very few users care, they want to scroll through and see stuff they like. They don't want to curate and host and delve into the intricacies. Until such time as someone makes lemmy palatable, the masses won't eat it.

You say surrealism is anti-fascist. Then you say cruelty and absurdity are the same thing (two sides of the same coin). Then you try to clarify by saying they are two separate things but have a commonality (two coins same side). I think ying/yang is more fitting, and quicker to the punch, in that there can be a little cruelty in absurdity and vise versa, which you were dancing around with your ill fitting metaphor. So, yes, I don't think so. Clarity is in the eye of the beer holder.

Therein lies the complication.

Sailing. Boating. Sewing. Those are they tops ones I miss from reddit that had active users. Instead we have 7000 communities for linux and pervy anime.

Probably one complication is that the trucks need to be able to drive while the bed is up in normal operation. They have to move forward while dumping to spread the load.

Lemmy won't catch on until there are groups of communities you can ban at once. Sports, Linux, German, pervy anime... It's a very rare user who will put up with the absolute dreck of the initial feed and manually block communities until they have a feed that's marginally personalized.

Then there's the fact that any communities that are specific to peoples interests are completely empty.

Your metaphor is not working. Cruelty and absurdity are Ying and Yang?

She wanted to leave

If you use a stick with two points in it, its called a trammel.

There are plenty of Heart Lakes.

It's been less and less for the last ever. It did freeze over solid, as did all the Great Lakes, about 10 years ago but that seems to be an outlier. Now there's been not much by the shore let alone any for ice fishers. I'm talking about Georgian Bay, off Lake Huron.

There was a railway built to my town which had a big industry supplying ice to the large cities in the south. There was a long conveyor belt built into the lake leading to a large building stuffed with saw dust that kept ice well into the summer. It created a lot of winter work for the locals that dried up after refrigeration was invented. The railway lost its usefulness and also got torn up. And now the bay doesn't even freeze anymore.
