  • Why no headphones? Seems like that would make the job more enjoyable.

  • if we restrict art sources to human artists

    That worked five years ago. Why wouldn't it work now?

  • Speaking from experience? How many generation ships have you travelled on?

  • OTOH, you've yet to encounter any conclusive evidence that you're mortal.

  • Downvoted? Yes. Intentionally? No.

  • There's no natural justice. If we want it we have to make it.

  • I've given my reasons, how about you give yours?

  • If a creature that size existed, it wouldn't be made of ordinary flesh. Its bones would have to be something special just to hold it up, and its tendons would need to be extraordinarily tough to keep the muscles from just sliding off in a heap.

  • I can't leave it at that. I have to add some details.

    Both the empire and the rebels repeatedly made tactical decisions so stupid a five-year old would know better. The opening battle involved sending unprotected bombers against a ship with anti-bomber defences and keeping the enemy commander talking on the phone to delay his response. That works in a Mel Brooks movie, not in Star Wars.

    They killed a fan-favourite character off-screen. What, was the puppet too old to reprise its role?

    The empire's main guy decided to chase the rebels down instead of destroying them immediately. For fun, I guess.

    Phasma's a badass. Except that she capitulates at the first sign of personal danger.

    All Holdo had to say was "yes, there's a plan. Not telling you what because of operational secrecy". Instead she expected Poe to blindly follow orders when he'd already shown he couldn't do that.

    "Oh no, the sacred texts!" ...that you attempted to burn a moment ago.

  • The Last Jedi.

    I left the theatre angry that they spent enough money to take mankind back to the moon on something that stupid.

  • A photo of a woman wearing a mix of lingerie and plate armour.

  • I had wild rabbit at a restaurant where the chef cooked meat he hunted himself. It had a really strong flavour I couldn't quite name. I could see other people enjoying it, but not me personally.

    There was a sign that warned diners to watch out for free prizes (shotgun pellets). I didn't come across any, but I was wary of chewing too hard in case I did.

  • My experience with Mint: "Guess I should research a solution for that minor annoyance - oh, they fixed it in an update."

  • Seems like we're getting what we wanted.

    I hope this isn't a monkey's paw wish.

  • Please don't talk to the crowd in Trumpian style.

  • Unless it's the photo flash on the priest's phone, go right ahead!

  • Why do some of the questions asked in this sub make it sound like the OP's first day as a human being?

  • Who's wasting it? Just wipe it off with a paper towel and you can use it on your crossword!

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    Could Superman cook a batch of chilli so spicy that he couldn't eat it?
