We need a full remake of the movie Brainscan. I loved that movie as a kid and always dreamed of the day when games became so real you couldn’t quite distinguish virtual from reallity. Brainscan does a okay enough yet extremely 90’s take on it and its just a fun, cheesy, and nerdy horror movie. It would be fun to see what an actual talented writing team and production crew could do with that same story adding what we know now.

Is “guillotine” a softer word? We could and should just use that instead. I’m all about catering to the elites’ baby soft thin skin.

I love when I see my favorite band in the wild.

About what I’ll make this year as a CNC machinist. And at least I’m making tangible and useful objects for jet engines and rockets (space, not war). A lot of those C suite executives do jack shit for humanity and get paid more in a week than I make actually working all year.

I left reddit the day the api shit went down and came here. Same Lemmy as its always been but noticeably more people now. My feed is more curated. It reminds me of my reddit experience in maybe 2011 or so. As with anything on the internet, the experience is only as good or as bad as you allow it to be. If you see a community or instance you dont like, just block them and move on. Do I like Lemmy as much as I did early reddit? Id say no, but not by much. Maybe its my rose colored nostalgia glasses for early Reddit that keeps me wishing for things to be the way they used to be but its totally possible that reddit was never as great as I thought it was. Idk. Im here now and I dig it. Its not the same but I like watching it grow and it keeps me entertained when I need it to. Overall, its better than the invasive nature of what reddit is now. Thats just my own opinion tho.

When I lived in LA and Atlanta, motherfuckers would steal the milk out of your coffee. I kept everything completely locked up, put away and hidden. I now live in northern Wisconsin and I dont lock anything. I dont think anyone around here does. This is the safest community I’ve ever been a part of and I love it.

Just get your mom to sit on some hydrogen atoms. Problem solved.

I’ll always remember the first time I did the baby quest. The first time I did it, I was like, “well, see ya, Lil fella!” and pitched that little brat right in the oven. Spoiler, turns out, it was the correct thing to do. Otherwise, that shadow demon guy wont jump to you from the guilt Garalt (not I) felt. What a great game.

At no point I do I think bullying should be allowed in schools but the reality is that if a kid was demanding a litter box in which to relieve themselves, they would get ostracized, bullied into oblivion, and that behavior would stop right away. No legislation required. Humans have a way of self correcting themselves in group environments. It’s an evolutionary trait from our days as tribes.

Again, bullying is a huge problem that needs to be taken far more seriously in our school systems… Buuuut, humans will act like humans, especially human children, when it comes down to things way outside the norm. Its just the way we are at this stage in evolution.
