I think “borrow” has a bad connotation in the US. Like: “beg, borrow or steal”. But people should remember that it’s theirs, they paid for it with their taxes, they’re just sharing it with others.

My cousin uses the library to get art to hang on their wall. Good stuff too, their library’s got a good curator.

This should be in the running for worst movie ever made.
It probably will be. It’s currently holding at 0% from 12 critics on rottentomatoes.

new “War of the Worlds” movie. with Ice Cube. shot during covid.
www.imdb.com/title/tt13186306/
pretty sure it’s not the greatest alien movie of all time.

I was thinking more like: if the advertising is that bad but they can still sell their produce, it must be good.

- Comment on Let's get Physical 3 weeks ago:
complications around how a personal relationship–or even the perceptions of one-- might affect workplace decisions
Agreed with everything you said. Just wanted to add the term “conflict of interest” to this part. If they had to make a decision that was good for the team and/or the customer, but bad for their lover, they might not make the best decision.

During roman times, it was common with complete orgies.
oh fam thank you… I needed a good laugh…
Why did the Romans construct so many buildings? for their ORGIES
Why did the Romans build acqueducts? to clean up after the ORGIES
Why did the Romans make their roads? to get to their ORGIES
Why did the Romans conquer so many people? because they needed folks for their ORGIES
thank you, friend. fwiw you’re kinda right about morality being a social construct, but I don’t know if that’s the best takeaway from all this.

People who have community’s what’s it like?
For more info about this, go to !fedigrow@lemmy.zip and look for the posts titled “Weekly thread - how is everyone doing with their communities?” In those posts, people who have taken charge of communities talk about what it’s like.
- Comment on A Completely Natural Conversation in the NYC Reddit 1 month ago:
Well let’s see… first we gotta figure out the analogy:
- carriers = posts promoting a product
- carrier escorts = posts commenting on and upvoting the “carrier” post
- torpedos/dive-bombs = bot-delivered replies that disparage “carrier” posts. They “hit” if they get highly upvoted
- fighters = bots that downvote carrier-fleet posts and upvote torpedo/dive-bomb replies
- carrier “screen” fighters = bots that post attacks on enemy fighters and munitions
- carrier AA fire = bots that downvote attacks by enemy fighter bots
The analogy is still a little clumsy… are “carriers” posts, or are they the bots that make the posts? etc. But a Midway-like battle would involve a modest but strategically-positioned product-promoting community that is about to be surprised-attacked by a rival, who will make several posts disparaging the product. But the attack is identified through corporate espionage. The posts are hard to find, so the “fighters” have to search for them but ultimately they do, and after fierce up- and down-voting, the attacking posts are deeply downvoted.
