I have blocked so many meme communities… Is like Lemmy is 50% memes.

“Victoria was made up by a dude.”

I recently discovered the song by Jax.

You can still hope. The acquisition is not complete yet.

Check if your country has a Gambling Support hotline and then hand the number to N. They will give proper advice.

Johnny Got His Gun (1971).

I could not finish this disturbing movie, and I would be happy to forget it.

What breed is this dog?

This was one or my favorite scifi flicks of the nineties.

I was a fan of Lambert (thanks to the Highlander movies) and big into scifi by then. That help me ignoring all the multiple reasons there are to bash this movie.

I never saw it again but I am sure it didn’t age well. I prefer to keep my memories about this movie intact.

The sequel (Fortress 2) was also bashed by the critics and it was not “good” as the first one, but I still saw it and enjoyed it.

I used it in the past but it stopped working for some sites.

I prefer to use archive.ph now.

The death toll keeps raising. More than 600 killed according to The Guardian. :(

Alien (the creature) is the work of H. R. Giger, a biomechanical artist.

Biomechanical art is closely related to cyberpunk so I would answer yes to your question.

In the other hand, I have never considered Alien as cyberpunk.

Do we actually want all the redditors and their “content” in Lemmy?

Be careful what you fish for.

Using your link I see that I have the problem. I see all 22 comments on that post if I open your lemmy.ca link on browser but if I open it on Sync I am missing like 5 posts.

Now I need to figure out how to fix this…

Non-American here.

I have lived in three different countries and solicitors are extremely rare. And in the few cases one ringed my door it was for charity or school kids collecting donations for some summer trip (not sure if this is called soliciting or not).

Is that bad in America that you need to put a sign at your door? How frequent they visit?

Malvavisco (Spanish).

Look for the movie Zeitgeist (free on YouTube) to understand how banks are able to lend money even if they don’t have it.

In a nutshell, they are able to lend multiple times the money they hold from depositing clients.

So for example. If a bank has $100m (clients deposits) they may be allowed, by law, to lend 10 times that amount… Even if they don’t have the money anywhere, the central bank in their country will facilitate that money to the bank. There is much more to this mechanic but this is the core of how the banks work all around the world.

Casual conversation revolves about football mainly… At least for males.

Asking about the weather is a standard opening conversation in some countries, mainly British or countries formerly British. Is a cultural thing.

In other cultures is not that common and in some cultures is very uncommon. For example, as a south American, it is strange for people to start a conversation about the weather.

Las hay a montones. Las de Alejandro Jorodowsky están todas en español por ejemplo.

I even posted pictures my entire collection some weeks ago to get things kickstarted but is no moving.

It was $50 in 2021.

The CEO stepped down 4 days ago when the stock was at $15, as a consequence it lost one third of its value and is now at $10.
