Could a child learn everything just from watching Hollywood movies and TV shows?
  • CascadeDismayed CascadeDismayed 1y ago 100%

    A child won't learn anything from the vast majority of Hollywood films. It's storytelling not in the educational sense, but the entertainment sense.

    They're amazing it's a shame all forms of electric scooter or electric powered vehicle outside of cars and motorbikes are illegal here.

    Keep fighting the good fight boys. It's only a matter of time until either of these websites surpass all the others. Is there a way I can donate?

  • Will Lemmy posts be searchable on Google?
  • CascadeDismayed CascadeDismayed 1y ago 100%

    Minds more intelligent than mine are probably already at work on these problems. I've seen multiple discussion of people saying they are designing and working on solutions. It may take some time to see results, though.

    I would argue that eventually, yes, one will be able to google search Lemmy just like Reddit.

    Why does this post feel so strongly like capitalist propaganda.

  • YSK that “neoliberal” refers to a discrete set of economic policies including deregulation, privatization, and so-called “free trade” implemented by both center-right and center-left parties
  • CascadeDismayed CascadeDismayed 1y ago 33%

    What you said makes zero sense. Neoliberalism is distinctly NOT a left wing ideology. To even try and associate them makes you look like you don't know what you're talking about.

  • China hits back at Biden: ‘Extremely absurd’ to call Xi a dictator
  • CascadeDismayed CascadeDismayed 1y ago 13%

    America is virtually a fascist state that crippled itself through capitalism. The Chinese leaders are laughing at America and the G7s decline. It is extremely disrespectful and idiotic of Biden to do this. The USA and the G7 are declining. BRICS, has overtaken them economically.

  • Is lemmy.ml just a tankie recruitment zone?
  • CascadeDismayed CascadeDismayed 1y ago 52%

    Only Reddit neoliberal crybabies whine about "tankies". From what I can see it's mostly baseless accusations/smear campaign because as I said, they are crybabies who cannot deal with the real world. It's an open source project. His views are not relevant to the discussion and not particularly that uncommon outside of isolated Westerner bubbles. Spez the Reddit CEO was the moderator of a paedophile subreddit (jailbait) but nobody is up in arms about that or concerned about going back if the API changes are rolled back. Those people are as lost as old people who love FoxNews, Facebook or any other commercially charged propaganda vehicle.

    These leftists you hate so much have done something good. They've seized the means of communication for you. It's open source and decentralised, it's up to you (the community) what to do with it. If you are hardstuck on this then I feel bad for you son, I got 99 problems but the dev ain't one.

    Got the shock of my life after finishing the 1st campaign of 'Yu-Gi-Oh legacy of the Duelist'. So I went off to go and fight the NPC Challenge mode. Out of my depth, so I got beaten a few times but I did beat about 5 of the NPC after about 3 attempts each. I'm not using any known build. I'm using a random deck of my own making trying to actually enjoy the damn game without chasing the meta. So I've been trying to fight Iszisu Isztar and I am completely hardstuck. She uses a spellbook deck and it just seems impossible. I am toast every time. I got her to 200 life points at one point, but even when I had her against the wall with zero, she just activated walls of text in the graveyard that summed powerful monsters and destroyed all of mine for reasons I don't even understand. I couldn't even comprehend it how the NPC and rules allow them to completely summon 5 mega monsters in one turn. I feel completely lost like I don't know anything about this game anymore even though I am a veteran of thousands of matches. Very demoralising. This video summarised my experience very well. As somebody who loves Yu-Gi-Oh, I weep for this game.

    PSA: There is a tool called Shreddit which you can use to delete all your content from Reddit. I have shredded 1000 posts as part of migrating to Lemmy and you should too.
  • CascadeDismayed CascadeDismayed 1y ago 100%

    My man, that's exactly why you should do it. To inflict as much pain as possible on Reddit, especially if it disrupts them and others from problem solving. I too have used Reddit a great deal to solve issues. I recognise what you're saying, but somethings gotta give my friend. Reddit is a evil coporation that's feeding it's users to the wolves. Completely sabotaging their website and transfering here is in my opinion, the way forward. It's 10 steps backwards, in orders to make 100 steps forward.
