  • iirc deep rock galactic specifically lets you kick people with the message "oops, this was meant to be a private lobby", which is quite funny

  • "haha jokes on you i was only pretending to be annoying!"

  • it's basically just a fancy way of saying "hey god could i maybe not die in the near future?"

  • and if everyone invested $100 per month in their local community we'd have colonies on the moons of jupiter

  • investments are super safe, provided you invest in your local community

    mutual aid is a great life hack

  • bakes it in a kiln, making it durable and waterproof

    The ghosts of our ancestors:

  • i'm here today to announce that i'm jogging for mayor

  • this is such a violently alcoholic statement

  • we do have a solution, it's called treating people like people and telling them to fuck off when they misbehave, and if moderators don't stop misbehaving then you move.

    i feel like every time people complain about things being bad and oh so difficult to solve there's a blitheringly obvious social solution that has been used for millions of years that is for some reason being ignored

  • there is a decentralized reddit clone, it's called lemmy lmao

    being decentralized doesn't mean you have no moderation

  • cloning is pretty simple: you end up in both places. there's no magical continuity of experience, both clones are equal and will 100% feel like the original and have equally valid claims to such, and to a third observer it would basically just look like two very confused identical twins who share their memories before the cloning.
    You obviously wouldn't end up with a single conscience experiencing both points of view at once, lmao.

    it's just like copying data on a computer, it's all the same data so it's nonsensical to call any copy the "original".

  • i don't think soap with grit added would have ever been considered a luxury product, low-quality soap still looks way prettier

  • not to worry, plenty of people type with a single finger flying across the keyboard, many still know cramping fingers 🥰

  • it's only a problem if you think the sole thing defining "you" is an intangible soul that for some reason wouldn't just transfer between or get copied alongside instances of yourself

    the line of reasoning you talk about has always been so strange to me, you'd be talking to a person walking out of a transporter and insist they're dead, as they look you in the eye and ask if that's an insult

  • it's just the ship of theseus, at what point do you consider it a new ship?

    like think about it, people only start questioning if it's the same person after they learn how transporters work, doesn't that indicate that it really doesn't matter? if people can go their entire lives with neither them nor anyone around them noticing a difference, how could they somehow be a different person?
