Well obviously that’s not in pi. Pi only tracks current phone numbers.
- Comment on What are some lesser-known obscure TV series that went under the radar, that you would recommend? 1 week ago:
12 Monkeys the TV show. I’ve never met anyone that has even heard of it, and I really enjoyed it! Same main characters as the movie, more or less, but a more involved story. Very satisfying, tidy ending.

I get the same screen anytime I use *any *VPN server.
- Comment on What TV cancellation are you most upset by? 3 weeks ago:
I agree with everything you said. I wish they’d make books 7-9 into a shows, too. I just unsafely assumed you hadn’t read them. I guess other people might read what I said and be inspired to read them.

The Expanse
Read the books, starting at book 7. The plot in the show is almost identical to the plot in the books. It shouldn’t be too hard to just pick them up.
However, the books are better than the show. I thoroughly enjoyed reading books 1-6 in preparation for reading 7-9. You get to read from various characters’ point of view. It’s so much deeper than the show.
You even get chapters from the point of view of...
Protomolecule Miller.
And the point of view of...
Random other people consumed on Eros. Seriously creepy shit! They didn’t die. They can’t die.

You should change instances of “you” to “OP” in your comment since I’m not them. I was just answering your question. 😄

They’re “roguelite” games. Games that feature permanent death, and are designed to be played from the start over and over while you learn more about the game, and often unlock new things each run (metaprogression) that can make each future run a little easier, or at least different.
Examples:
- Binding of Isaac
- Dead Cells
- Enter the Gungeon
The “roguelite” name comes from “roguelike” which itself is used to describe games being similar to “Rogue”, a very old ASCII dungeon crawler that pioneered this sort of gameplay. Roguelikes are modern, turn-based dungeon crawlers that feature the same mechanics.
Examples:
- Caves of Qud
- Shattered Pixel Dungeon

Sure, it’s not a coöp, but at least they pay $20/hr starting wage, and $30/hr for half of their employees because they stay there so long.

DDG really likes to give bullshit AI generated website results. “Top 7 [thing] to buy in 2025”. And after reading for 2 minutes, you realize the page is utter shit. Paragraphs of fluff, some referral links, and absolutely no expert advice.
- Comment on How to make multiple paragraphs render with a space? 2 months ago:
That’s not a lot of spacing, but that’d not zero. If your first paragraph were longer, it would wrap and the lines of your first paragraph would have less space between them than there is between the paragraphs.
I don’t k ow why the CSS maintainers of the default Lemmy theme have chosen such a small paragraph margin. You’re not the first person to complain about it. It’s pretty bad.
In my Lemmy client, Thunder, your post looks great. Anything you do to increase the space
- Comment on is Chat-GPT refusing this image? 2 months ago:
to be honest elon using the nazi salute
That’s not how it works. If the training data had to include specific people doing specific things it’d be useless. Instead, the training let’s it infer individual image elements from different sources. It never had to be trained on orange pentagons to be able identify “orange” and “pentagon” from an image of an orange pentagon.

Ordering light ice at McDonalds always results in a full cup with less ice.

A little injested mold isn’t going to hurt you. If the ice looks clean, it’s clean enough.

Looks like one of those cinnamon scented brooms you put on your door as decoration in Fall. Maybe they use it as a deodorizer.

The best way to keep the air clean and safe is to privatize it. Air owners will have a financial interest in keeping their air clean and can sue polluters. Meanwhile, government would just ignore (or at most monitor) pollution.

- Comment on the amount of slop saying "wait till the end" is too damn high 3 months ago:
It’s not my feed that has crap. Try swiping up on 100 shorts some night when you can’t sleep and see what you see.
- Comment on the amount of slop saying "wait till the end" is too damn high 3 months ago:
Same, but once in a while in start watching a short from one of my subscriptions and then start scrolling. I guess because I watch some gaming content, YouTube thinks I want to watch some drivel.
- Comment on the amount of slop saying "wait till the end" is too damn high 3 months ago:
The worst is people verbally explaining what you’re seeing like a fucking documentary. It’s extra bad because they stole the video they’re narrating.
Even better is a split screen video where the bottom half is someone playing Minecraft or some really simple platform game.
I really hate this version of the internet.

What truth? Click to find out!
You can’t even tell if the video is going to be for or against “X” until you click it and watch for a bit.
