  I don’t get the downvote, it’s in fact an interesting question. However, sorry, I’m keeping it unpopular: healthy or not (research has shown it has antimicrobial effects), it’s still an annoyance for everyone else.

  I can walk around with a water pistol filled with vitamin water, shooting people in the face. Just because it contains vitamins (IT’S GOT ELECTROLYTES!) it doesn’t magically make it non-annoying.

  I guess you just offended a BBQ lover. There’s 8 billion of us, I don’t see why one would downvote someone for having different preferences. Claiming it overrated was a bold move, though.

  Good question. I don’t see why people would keep their engine running for an extended period at home, so why not. Exempt on the roads of course.

  Well, this is an unpopular opinion discussion. It does.

  I knew BBQ would be a touchy one, especially among US users. I think it should be possible to have them, but preferably at places that can organise them in parks, or something.

  Creating ANY kind of smoke should be banned in public. By public I don’t mean just bus stops and trains and shit. Literally anywhere but maybe your house. And smoking indoors is even more disgusting. Smoking in your garden? Is there anyone living within ~20 feet? Forbidden. Smoke machines on concerts may have an exemption.

  I also fucking had enough of people making fires every fucking time the weather gets too hot for me to keep my windows closed. Then my bedroom smells like the great fire of London and good luck having a good night’s sleep like that.

  I am actively trying to avoid using ‘her’ for the same reason, but who am I to judge?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ciao⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s entirely possible that Lemmy is horny anyway, but yeah, I’ve seen other users post similar stuff, as well, but I couldn’t tell if it was an alt or a copycat.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ciao⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I never even assumed their posts were about things that have actually happened. Based on the wildly different kinks, it was rather suspicious to me that those were just lewd fiction.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ciao⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Plus, if it’s the same one username then the “haters” can just block that one user and there will be fewer of them complaining.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ciao⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There is (was?) this user called Violet (I think by the time I caught up, their username was violet_08 - they might have changed it to did_you_find_violets, or it might be an entirely different user; I don’t follow them too closely) who has been posting mostly thirsty/lewd/NSFW memes. AFAIK there have been several generations of accounts, deleted, new one created, and so on.

  I don’t get the hate, though. As long as the NSFW stuff is tagged I don’t mind it, and having one permanent username also helps against complaints since people can just block them once, instead of having to block every new account.

  Meh. Do I regret some of my inactions? Hell, I do. Do I regret some of my awful moves/decisions 400% more? I fucking do. The amount of cringeworthy brain cramps I get for just thinking of them for a split second make me wish they were just another one of my regretful inactions, instead.

  Lazy copy of the outcome:

  As such, the results have indicated that large breasts can be notably aerodynamic through the reduction of drag and lift. The Flat model incurred a 4% maximum drag increase com- pared to the Normal model, with an average of approximately 2% span- ning velocities from 1 to 30 m⋅s-1. The Flat model also experienced more lift, with a maximum difference being 32% and averaging 22%. As illustrated, the mechanism behind the drag and lift behaviors ob- served between both models was elucidated through the analysis of streamlines around the body and the structures associated with TKE; the Normal model provides advantageously lower drag and lift by the gen- eration of stronger vortices from the legs, which in turn originates from the action of the breasts redirecting the flow around the torso. From what has been presented in this preliminary work, it is safe to conclude that the phrase “Flat is Justice” is deficient aerodynamically.

  Horizontal band member here. If I have to take a photo of a wardrobe, my whole self, a jumping giraffe or the Empire States Building, you can be sure as heck I’ll hold the phone vertically. The only reason for me to take a horizontal photo of my fridge is when it fell on my foot.

  Same thing goes vice versa: vertically filming a scenery, a dish, my mom’s panties or a seesaw is plain dumb, unless there’s something else that justifies the awful framing.

  BUT when you make a video for the purpose of uploading it to sites like YouTube… You can’t convince me vertical would make more sense. I understand that it’s the same problem if it’s a vertically aligned app (I could go on a 3 day rant about Instagram not allowing horizontal - or any - full screen on desktop), but decent portals do it properly. If you have a phone and you want to watch vertical stuff, problem solved. If you have a phone and want to watch horizontal stuff, just rotate your damn screen, it’s a no-brainer. But when you have a monitor, you can’t (always) just turn in 90 degrees and watch vertical stuff full screen.

  Because of lazy uploaders AND lazy management/devs, there are countless of cases where a full screen video has actual content on less than 10% of the screen, because a horizontal video was uploaded to a vertical site, then you open it on a horizontal monitor and it plays like

  Also, if you (as a man) think that showing you two men kissing might turn you gay then I’ve got news for you.

  A true, confidently heterosexual man won’t suddenly get turned on by men, even if you show them the entire 1973 Construction Worker Calendar. Same goes for women vice versa, but it’s usually the men that are the loudest about this.

  However, if you think your sexuality has always been rock solid (😏) then why do you assume the opposite of everyone else?

  Haha, yeah, she’s not a 1:1 doppelgänger. Just one from the top of my head that looks somewhat similar, if you squint and ignore the humongous mammaries on the posted image.

  And I still have tinnitus from that cover.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Online courses⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Not quite. Unless she’s a “new” face from the past 7-8 years. The closest I can think of is Gabriella Tóth, but she’s like an unschooled butt licker of the previous government (Fidesz/Orbán), and has a quite scandalous background with a rather bad reputation.

  But, to be fair, considering Fidesz’s smear campaign and troll farms, she might even be the face for it.

  The amount of childhood trauma inflicted upon gen-x by “children’s media”

  I would love to link the English version of the article, but it doesn’t exist. I guess page auto-translation might work, but: back when I was a kid, the quite popular Duck Tales got interrupted due to the death of the prime minister of the time. One minute you were watching uncle Scrooge, the other it was a bunch of people carrying a coffin.
