I need that shirt.

MachineFab812 , to Today I Learned in TIL about Roko's Basilisk, a thought experiment considered by some to be an "information hazard" - a concept or idea that can cause you harm by you simply knowing/understanding it

Means Hitler is in Heaven. If its even slightly less Hellish than wherever they end up, then yes, bad thing.

MachineFab812 , to Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ in Am I the only one preferring low quality media over high quality one?

Reasons why MinX versions are usually available. Whether for bandwidth purposes, just not giving a fuck about HD, or not wanting to buy larger Hard Drives to save overlarge content, there's plenty of people with plenty of reasons to prefer smaller files.

MachineFab812 , to Technology in This Is How the 3D Pipes Windows Screensaver Was Created

The Maze was based on previous work by id Software and others. IIRC, it was kinda janky when held up against Doom or even Wolfenstien or Heritic/Hexen. Hell, Descent was out by then as well.

Pipes? Pipes was something else. None of those games I mentioned bothered to make something look round in any believable capacity. Pipes did that, seemingly with shading 🫨

Those aren't Creepers. They are Spectators.

MachineFab812 , to Technology in The Paradox of Blackmarket Wired Bluetooth Apple Headphones

Not only an airport, but elsewhere would likely not have been able to negotiate to same prices as a local. Sticker price is almost always the foreigner price, at least when it's matching or higher than the price one would pay back home.

I'm almost certain I've seen $5 "lightning" headphones here in the midwestern US.

MachineFab812 , to ADHD memes in I'm at my most motivated just before falling asleep

First thought: I'm at my most gullible when about to fall asleep. Second thought: wait, is this why I pray then?

Nah. I long ago stopped praying for anything I don't mean to do myself. Wait...

MachineFab812 OP , to 196 in Yet Another Post Or Comment Where I NEED To Block Those Who Downvoted Rule

Thanks for reminding me that you are exactly the sort of person I mean to block in this post. I had made the mitake of engaging with you as if you were coming from a place of sincerity, but here, we part ways.

Kudos to you on digging through their comments/post history. I see plenty of drama just looking at those that cross my path. From where I'm sitting, digging like so is just looking for the very things you claim to not want to see.

Me? I would rather fool around with my wife's sister than all that, and/or hang out with those who do such things. If you can't see the line between that and actual incest, its you with the blurred boundary issue. That said, my wife has no siblings, and I don't need the drama enough to be sad about it.

Going into a community to downvote one of the most wholesome posts that community gets is very much something like a value statement.

I get that a lot of people are looking at the unfiltered "all" feeds for their instances, but damn, it seems like few, if any, communities here are large enough for the outrage some of their content will attract from outsiders.

Not my post in the screenshot ... Nice freakout over another's business though. Quality stuff.

MachineFab812 OP , to 196 in Yet Another Post Or Comment Where I NEED To Block Those Who Downvoted Rule

I don't care about hiding the downvotes. I simply have no interest in seeing their comments/replies to others or myself.

MachineFab812 OP , to 196 in Yet Another Post Or Comment Where I NEED To Block Those Who Downvoted Rule

Jesus. Not even what I thought you were getting at, at all. I was thinking more like Narc-anon.

MachineFab812 OP , to 196 in Yet Another Post Or Comment Where I NEED To Block Those Who Downvoted Rule

Yours is the first mention I've found of children as members in that community, and its an NSFW-allowed community, so I have no idea where you got that notion.

That said, I would block any minor or minor-welcoming instance I became aware of on Lemmy. I'm not here to interact with that level of immaturity; I still regret not leaving facebook the moment they allowed teens(and grand-parents/boomers - yes it was an all-at-once change).

MachineFab812 OP , to 196 in Yet Another Post Or Comment Where I NEED To Block Those Who Downvoted Rule

More likely the downvotes come from users you've already blocked or an instance with which yours is not federated. Supposedly, there are also instances that only show local votes as well.

Regardless, you are the only one who has said they didn't see any downvotes, so far.
