The truth is that I really liked the durable tank that was my old car, and I really like the comfort of my new car.
And that's why you are a Volvo enthusiast. You fall in love with the old tanks and then you grow up to appreciate the comfort. Thats the life cycle of a Volvo enthusiast.
I'm very happy to bring you this news of you being a Volvo enthusiast, Mr./Ms. Volvo Enthusiast.
Top tip for when a carbrain is complaining about public transportation infrastructure projects: ask them why are they complaining, this would only mean less people on the roads in front of them going 5km/h below the limit.
I'm very picky about music. I've never found new music based on a persons or algorithms suggestions. I have to be in the right mood to accept new music in my life. That has lead to very slow adaption of new stuff. I do listen to a wide variety of music, classical, rock, funk, some jazz, blue, metal, folk, chanson, pop, alternative... Pretty much the only stuff I don't listen to is electronic and rap/hip hop.
When I was a youth I did seek new stuff more often, thats where I found out that not many people knew what I might like, only my older cousin could recommend me stuff that I still listen to lol. These days I find new music once or twice per year.
And when I do find something new that I like, I obsess over it for weeks before going back to the mixed playlist. Latest one is Têtes Raides, according to Last.fm I've listened to them nearly 700 times in the last two weeks. The second most listened to artist in that same period is at around 80 listens...
I'd take crappy MSpaint meme over this bullshit. Or just some text. Slapping AI slop on the post doesn't really help with the message getting through, as evidenced by the votes lol
The forum posts have turned into youtube tutorials. Sometimes thats good, sometimes not so much. Depends on how well the video has been made etc. Also sometimes its a bit annoying trying to go back and forward in the video, instead of just scrolling pictures up and down.
I used to be a car mechanic and back in the day the car forums were great, because you'd go to the Opel forum to find opel stuff, ford forum for ford stuff etc. You even had specific engine forums sometims. But now those are mostly on youtube. Not sure how to feel about that.
But for example, yesterday I did a quick search for how to open a Compaq CQ61 laptop and right away found 2 website posts and 2 youtube videos about it.
The information is still around, just need to dig a bit sometimes. Or just ask. I'd be fine with Lemmy becoming a source for information... But everything dies eventually. I wouldn't expect Lemmy to survive longer than the old forums did. If you find info that you feel was helpful, save it. Either on your harddrives or perhaps upload to internet archive etc.
Whats wrong with Mr. Child Rapist?
