There's a couple old shows from my favorite actors/actresses that you literally cannot stream or buy anywhere anymore. If I don't hold onto it, who will?

What?! Can't even trust online streamers to host their own content!

While I don't love it, Season Four and Five happily sitting on my server.

They killed off openvpn support a few years ago and am glad I did. They don't care about power users, so they don't care about my money either. Good riddance

Will it show when Google themselves though are using it?

Not wrong, but replacing it with the Cleveland Show was just horrible

Absolutely true! Fresh is not a regulated term at all. Organic is, and I believe Natural is (but less than organic). Fresh doesn't have to mean anything

We had a huge push here about waterproof vs waterresistant. "waterproof" means you can drop it into like, 12 ft of water for some crazy amount of time and it'll be fine. Water Resistant is a much more flexible term like "If you use it outdoors and a drop of water gets on it you should be fine. Of course, no average consumer knows the difference and so they assume water resistant means water proof.

No idea who downvoted you, some dude who refuses to believe that? I didn't believe that until I met someone in the food industry and they were like "Oh yeah, that's just to make you believe it's real stuff". Turns out, McDonald's Patties with 100% Real Beef relies heavily on that with, who would have guessed. The rest is ~~sawdust~~ filler material, but hey at least some portion of it is 100% real beef.

Spraying it into my eyeballs in tears YOU BASTARDS

Same thing with "Cheese"

Cheesey, Chee-z, The Chees-iest, any variant of that and it's not real cheese. Cheese is a regulated term. It's not just qWiRkY marketing, it's designed to distract you from the very fake product you're consuming.

BS. At this point it's just clickbait

Drivers always say "it will kill downtown businesses", but I've only seen them thrive more with bikelanes. Cars don't stop when they see something interesting, they aren't part of the neighborhood, they just drive home to the suburbs. Ironically less traffic means more ability for locals to enjoy their neighborhood.

 

This is a space to explore and share ideas about how we shape the towns and cities we live in. Here we'll be making a place where we can openly discuss urban planning for not only large cities but also our small towns - including but not limited to transit, green spaces, walkability, traffic, and anything related to living in an urban environment.

Many of you already know me, I'm Scrubbles, passionate about Urbanism and excited to see what we can do with this community.

I welcome all posts about Urbanism - videos about it, articles, open questions, whatever you may like!

Minor housekeeping, rules will come as they are needed, my big two are "Don't be a dick" - meaning discussion is welcome and arguments are fine, but I don't tolerate personal attacks, and keep posts on target. Obviously these will evolve with the community.

Hopefully this will be my only "announcement" style post, but felt like we should kick it off somewhere. Welcome!

 

Jumping the Shark - when a show has a critical moment that makes it clear that the show is no longer what it used to be, and the remaining seasons continue to decline in quality.

What are your favorite shows that have that moment?

Posted to her socials, "See you next era!", and a lot of orange tints?

 

Has anyone else noticed this, across the fediverse, Lemmy specifically. A lot of new users, but also a lot of first posts that are very inflammatory/rage baity.

Do we have another legit influx of new users? Or do we just have some bad actors trying to stir the pot? Or maybe I'm imagining it.

 

I agree with her, but I wish she would have pushed the driving aspect a bit more.
