Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is your favorite version of FTL in science fiction?
3·12 days agoThe Hyperspace Gates in Cowboy Bebop always seemed to be pretty plausible. They didn’t explain all the science behind them, but there was enough to show that the was science behind it, and it had been commercialized enough that people had a basic understanding of them.
The ending guitar riff was the message sound on my phone for years.
It got recognized a few times, too!

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are you CPR/First Aid certified? If so, do you carry around a "rescue breath mouth shield" with you everywhere you go?
3·21 days agoHuh. I work around a lot of people who use and that’s what we were told. I carry Narcan in my bag as well.
One of the cops that does security told us that they had some powder they found test positive for carfentanyl about a week ago, so I’m expecting the OD’s to come around any day now.

34·21 days agoI doubt Switzerland has the same issues as the US, but fentanyl can be absorbed through a latex glove. I switched my gloves to nitrile. Added bonus- don’t have to worry about latex allergies.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there anything you're into that no one or basically nobody is into?
6·23 days agoI got sent down a weird musical rabbit hole that started by letting my kid play some k-pop on my Spotify account. The AI DJ added “foreign music” to the list of tags I guess, and after finding a couple k-pop songs I liked, it bronched out into other genres & Landed on Melodic Mexican Metal, which I didn’t even know was a thing.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What was your number one favorite website 'back in the day', that is now defunct?
8·25 days agostile project went from a collection of bafflingly weird shit to a shitty porn site.
Yeah, there was a lot of porn before, but it wasn’t really the main focus- it was basically a collection of shock value pics & videos that probably played a big part in me becoming desensitized… It was my source of “Eh, I’ve seen worse”

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•'Read' and its past tense are spelled the same. How should they be spelled?
2·1 month agoI think the contraction vs possesive thing messes with me, and my brain can never settle on what goes where when, how, or why…

2·1 month agoThe conjugations can get as weird as English sometimes, though. Case in point: Ser.

71·1 month agoThis is the grammar thing I fuck up the most, and I don’t call people on it because I’m pretty sure I don’t know how it works. Autocorrect changes it & I just say “oh, whoops”, and it still looks wrong…

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do you perceive wild animals? Do you think they will hunt or attack you? Utterly harmless? In between?
1·1 month agoI’m in an urban Midwest area & most of the “scary” wildlife stays away. The raccoons are probably the most “dangerous” common thing I see, and they usually run off at loud noises, unless they’re drunk.
I’ve seen coyotes, but never closer than about 20 yards or so, and at that range they are usually running away.
Deer are skittish, and mostly only dangerous jumping in front of your car.
The one encounter I had that I was actually afraid was trying to get an 18 inch wide snapping turtle out of the street. A big stick & a ratchet strap accomplished that with no one getting hurt.
Looks like I gotta go boot up the Packard Bell & get Notepad.exe from my Windows 3.1 install…

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do you discreetly look at your phone during work?
2·1 month agoWait. Are you telling me that it’s not normal to constantly have 5 unfinished tasks at any given time?
Ah! Looks like you made the mistake of “getting things done” which has now caused you to have extra work for the same amount of pay…
You’re going to have to cut your losses and find a new job to fix that one.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Hypothetical-- you can only choose two cuisines to eat for the rest of your life. What might they be?
3·1 month agoIf you just say ‘American’ do you get both as one selection, with Texas BBQ & Southern Biscuits & Gravy as a bonus?
Typing random numbers into nhentai to see what absolutely depraved shit is out there.
Makes a great drinking game in the right group of people.
I’ll do it for half of your offer. $250 Billion is plenty for me to pull off a robot army.
