Wait… So LOTR is just a long winded remake of Smokey and the Bandit and Pippin is the Bandit.j

honestly i have no idea who a smoky should be, however i liked the movie "Bandits" back then, but i guess its likely not what you meant.

no pippin is rather just a fool who is directly driven by his curiosity and foolish but never foul ideas but that had an impact by the same luck that seems to follow pippin wherever he goes, thus he is rather the old character of the fool from tarot cards people have long forgotten (which is the only card of todays -poker,skat,etc- cardgames that somehow kept its original meaning from tarot cards: the joker who could be placed to replace every other card like the fool -high arkana- who could do anything and would just walk forwards without fearing consequences or looking back which is much of what pippin is like)

pippin actually helped to distract sauron a LOT. Without his "accident" there wouldn't have been the big distracion that held until frodo and sam actually were on the vulcano short to letting the ring destroy itself.

i plan to get a similar setup (music on homeserver, synced to phone for offline use) but i dont need to sync playlists as i rarely use them, i have a streaming account with one(!) playlist with all the songs i remembered and wanted to listen to but didn't buy as CD back then and use the radio like streaming options a lot.

but for syncing phone with nextcloud i use FolderSync (Pro) and it works as it should. it has lots of possible sync targets and lots of options to sync one or both ways. i have folders with >8000 files that take some time to sync but it works fine in the background with no prob, i let it sync over mobile network too, cz i value a more reliable in-sync status more than bandwidth. however i didn't really try "immediate sync" for new/changed files yet as i don't see the need for this but its one of many options.

however i only use nextcloud sync in one or two-way syncs and once used sftp for a one-way sync, so i cannot judge all the other options, but if your playlists are organized in files, their two-way sync might be as easy as with the songs. i bought the pro version on their website so my license is not bound to a google account.

ob der vertrocknete, entrindete Fichtenast…

ich war ja auch nicht bei "vielleicht wird da", sondern bei "vielleicht möchte jemand" ... jedenfalls gibts diverse Techniken, die so "ähnlich" aussehen. Vielleicht hat sich da auch jemand von gpt5-1/4 beraten lassen?

vielleicht möchte jemand, dass der Ast im feuchten Moosgeflecht Wurzeln schlägt, aber normalerweise macht man Äste dafür ab.

Triangles pull the same trick,

At least triangle is trying to be

i want to disagree. let me think how i'm going to do that...

Well, i asked Triangle, but she does not agree with what you wrote. Instead she beautifully rang the following horribility:

"A bee hive is a monarchy and the workers do as they are told. they hate hexagon, they want to do art instead, curves, geometric impressions, fractal figures and dadaismic alike shapes, but they fear punishment and so they do the hexagons they hate instead, because the monarch prefers them to do things they hate."

Pumba, with you everything is gas!

Pick your seat, Lemmy in c/politicalmemes@lemmy.world

one question...

which of these are within the available options?

replacing own life vest with parachute
manipulating all seatbelts to get stuck
waiting until all have their seatbelts on
open en emergency exit in mid flight (or is it a boeing anyway?)
picking all unnumbered seats (as was the question) one by one and remove the screws holding them in place.
pushing the devil out of limits
watching all the others to follow their guide.
after landing guessing the discovery of having a parachute instead of a life vest was the reason for all of them to want to jump and use theirs for fun, but impossible to know why together with their seats, however they act against common sense anyway so no too big surprise there. and no need to be worried either as assuming they have parachutes. also beeing unable to do anything as the seatbelt somehow was locked and prevented leaving the seat until beeing freed by engineers after landing.

Through the Distorted Mirror: How the West Misrepresents Russia in c/history@lemmy.world

[+] smb@lemmy.ml -6 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

i am from the west and perceive the west as an ever-ongoing aggressor and war driver full of poisonous lies and false promises even against their own people. some of those war driver regimes even have monuments that publicly show-off their inner and outer brutish lawlessness to never give back to their rightful owner a once stolen land.

i perceive countries that took land by force and did't give it back to their rightful owners for decades as invadors, no matter how much they like to see themselves as the "help" against "other" invadors. in fact just wanting to be seen as the good ones for things they do worse in other places actually makes them even worse again.

i don't see russia to 'like' to invade, in fact they have left countries before, something other invaders don't do. in fact russia sometimes even sells countries for cheap amount of money to nations that still lack civilisation and need to develop themselves to become civilised (like to actually abolishing slavery or such), i guess that selling that country to a slavery-liking nation was russia's biggest crime until today.

also if russia really 'like's to invade, they'ld already have done it way earlier in ukraine, and in general way more often, maybe as often as the us does and maybe then finding the same foul excuses like the us always does, but what i perceive instead is a LOT of propaganda in the west, so that i genuinely cannot really tell lots about russia these days but only about the crimes the regime here obviously commits inside as well as outside.

getting their asses handed to them

Are you talking about hawaii? that was not "handing" to the us, that was afaik forced by terror from the US against the hawaiian nation to surrender to the biggest threat to them and since then.
