Reply to comment by twovests in why can't the term 'fishing' be more like birding and just mean fish watching? by underscores
Some fish will come up near the surface, so you might see them or hear splashing. It's mostly the air/water barrier that makes it hard to spot them. In calm and clear water you can see through easily. Or just wearing goggles and sticking your head underwater helps you see fish better. I've never gone scuba diving but I feel like that's probably the best way.

Reply to just habits by underscores
bonus harder ones I don't set for every day:
- think of the last question someone asked you
- plan something and don't do it
- teach someone how to do something
- write something short
- read some of your old notes
- learn or create a term for a thing you know
- think of something to talk about
- do something self expressive
- get to do something you feel restricted from doing
- notice something seemingly simple that you don't want to do
- think of ways to make habits more unique each time
- decide you don't want to do something instead of putting it off forever
- learn how to do something to feel less restricted
- remember something new you thought of recently

Reminds me of how youtube's autocaptions just put [_] for everything, as if deaf people can't handle swearing or slurs, but everyone else can.
I think you're better off not having slurs, but if it's there in one format it should be in the other. If you do censor it at least do it where it's clear what specific word isn't being said.

Reply to post post post post. i need to see your posts. they are like blood or oxygen to me by twovests
Just seeing blood or oxygen doesn't seem very useful. Maybe try breathing in the posts, or get a post transfusion.

I've watched videos making fun of this. It terrible, but it's at least unique and interestingly terrible. The creator also made an ai generated 9/11 video that looks way worse.

Reply to Serious question, for those who know more about Catholicism and its influence on the world: Should we be concerned about the passing of this pope? by twovests
I'm pretty sure most of the cardinals that decide the next pope were appointed by this one, so I don't expect they'll be that different. But there's more than a billion catholics, so even minor differences can have big effects.

Reply to it won't be long before "the 20s" will generally be understood to mean the current decade, instead of the 1920s by cowloom
I feel like it might not get that popular. People haven't really been using that wording to refer to the current decade since the 90s, so it feels kind of dated.
Some other phrasing, nickname, slang, pun, or something could take off instead. I guess if there's some distinctive attribute to the decade maybe it'll get an adjective to contrast it with the roaring 20s.

Reply to comment by flabberghaster in I just really think the whole tech industry is going to implode soon by flabberghaster
Yeah, I've seen that. They conflate peoplishness with money, and the less you are worth the less of a person they think you are.

I'm not sure when it'll collapse, but it's definitely a giant bubble. Between the LLMs, the massive enshitification the last couple years with almost every company trying to squeeze their users and business partners at the same time, and now most of their leaders openly aligning with fascists, it's gotten really bad really fast. The fact that OpenAI said they were loosing money on their $200/month plan shows they have no clue what they're doing, and are probably just hoping it improves into AGI so they can have automated slavery.

I'm basically always like this. There's tons of communities I've hung out in for months or years before posting. There's still a bunch I haven't posted in yet.
