These mods are a joke.
🥱
Arguing with you people is exhausting.
Keep believing whatever you want.
Humor is subjective.
I'm sure you'd laugh at a lot of things that I'd consider childish and not funny.
Because dildos are funny and interrupting sporting events is hilarious.
I don't care if it's a women's or men's event.
That's fine. The guy I was responding to was trying to argue that all pranks make everyone laugh, which is ridiculous.
Throwing dildos at a basketball game is not an act of cruelty, unless their intent was to injure someone.
What's the definition of most?
Here's the definition of a prank:
a practical joke or mischievous act
A practical joke or prank is a trick played on people, generally causing the victim to experience embarrassment, perplexity, confusion, or discomfort.
No laughter required.
Ok, buddy.
There's not a single prank that everyone will laugh at, but keep believing what you want.
Sorry, just to drive the point further home: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Practical_joke
No mention of laughter even being a factor. You can edit the article if you'd like to change that.
Also, this is a really good fucking prank:

It'd be hilarious if people responded by doing that.
Not really, but believe whatever you want.
"Everyone laughing" is an unreachable metric.
Pranks make everyone laugh.
That's most certainly not true.
I think they could've had a better memorial.
They should get one now that this has been removed.
Good.
Charge the useful idiots as much as they're willing to pay.
That's pretty funny, but the title makes it seem like he specifically targeted the girl.
It looks more like he threw it as a prank for the athletes, and it just so happened to hit a young girl.
California Assemblyman James Gallagher, the Republican minority leader
"You move forward fighting fire with fire and what happens?” Gallagher asked. “You burn it all down.”
These people are absolute pieces of shit. He's just saying whatever will hurt democrats without touching republicans.

The war on drugs is one of humanity's biggest mistakes, and everyone who supports it should be rehabilitated or executed.
God forbid you put yourselves at the same risk as the Ukrainians defending your asses.

Do we need a crawler to load content from other lemmy instances? How are we supposed to federate without one?
I'm trying to start my own lemmy instance, and reading through the documentation at https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/federation_getting_started.html it looks like we need to manually search for just about everything that can be found on other lemmy instances.
It works. I'm able to search for communities/comments/posts and then my instance will load only that community/comment chain/post and only after I've searched it. No updates.
Is this what we're supposed to be doing? Seems pretty tedious to have someone that's supposed to go to other instances and then search for all of their content on my instance in order to federate with it.
I have a feeling there is an easier way, but I'm legitimately not seeing it.
Right now, it looks like the only way users on my instance will get to see content from other instances is if I manually search for just about everything they'll get to see.
I can write a crawler to automate all of this, but I'd rather not unless it's completely nec

YSK that cholesterol is only found in significant quantities in animal products.
I thought it was interesting how this little factoid was kept hidden from us. Lots of people like to complain about high cholesterol, but I bet most of them don't realize that it's only coming from the animals they're choosing to eat.

The solar industry is full of parasites because it's easy to sell solar to uneducated customers
Unlike wind and hydro, which require dealing with governments and experts, solar can be sold to anyone with enough money to buy it.
This means that there are a ton of scumbags looking to profit off of those who do not know any better by spreading misinformation and, well, any other tactic they can think of to enrich themselves further.
I've started thinking about this because whenever a discussion about clean energy comes up, there's almost always "solar shills" trying to peddle rhetoric that makes solar out to be the superior option even when it clearly isn't. I have a feeling this is because those individuals have been manipulated by businesspeople into believing and sharing falsehoods so the next time one of their salepeople tries to sell a layperson solar, said layperson is more likely to have come across some propaganda to tilt them more towards making a purchase.
Money brings out the worst in people. I unfortunately don't hold the people in the solar industry above what I'm ac

What is an anti-hero?
There are no wrong answers, only your opinions 🙂
Personally, I think an anti-hero is a bad guy that does good things. He might cheat on his wife, steal, gamble, etc, but when it "matters," he ends up on the side of what's good.
Han Solo is an example that comes to mind.
