lol what a lame post
This dude thinks he’s a Vulcan lol
Best appliance I ever sprung for.
Wow I love Flanagan but for some reason thought this show was a documentary about how crappy the hip hop artist, Usher, was. Thanks for this post lol. I now have a show to look forward to.
This made me laugh. It’s been like 30 years since Dragon Ball was like that.
My dude, you wooshed so hard.
Appreciate the comment. I agree voting in theory is a good idea but I think a majority of people use it as not intended and it’s creating a net negative experience for the social media that utilizes it. Too many people use downvoting to show dissatisfaction with an opinion instead of the intended this doesn’t add to the conversation. Dog piling is a major issue IMO, psychologically many see negative votes (or many downvotes) and are inclined to treat those comments or posts with more derogatory comments or oppose the commenter before even reading the full post or comment. That’s a very real general example of functionality that’s shutting down engagement and being contradictory to the intent of the social media system being used. For a specific example, browse all with the new filter on lemmy and look at how many posts get downvoted right out of the gate that are perfectly legitimate posts for the communities they’re posting in. The moving good content to the top of your feed intention of upvotes doesn’t really work well in the fediverse without algo based feeds and the top filter could easily switch to views and comments to get the desired results without all the downside of how it is now.
If this were a minor issue I wouldn’t be commenting and would support the standard just ignore votes spiel but it seems to be that most people cannot handle the current voting system so I still see no benefit to them in their current form. The fediverse is the perfect environment to iterate and innovate on a system that doesn’t work as intended.
I think upvoting and downvoting should be removed in its current form. There should be a way to report content that doesn’t contribute to conversations or is hateful and if you want to know how popular a post is go off of alternate engagement metrics like views/comment count.
I genuinely see no benefit to upvoting or downvoting if the above mechanisms are in place. Upvotes are something many folks get obsessed with and downvotes are too easy to spam, especially on a social network that consists of mostly anonymous users. This post is a good example - it’s adding to the conversation and trying to spur engagement with the community but at the time of me commenting it has -1 upvotes (via Voyager since it aggregates downvotes/upvotes). What is the point of these mechanisms - they should be left to Reddit and the fediverse should innovate in this area and make something better than what we already had.
I don’t disagree on anime/children’s content or even Star Wars to an extent but since this is a Pokémon show with no actual Pokémon I think it falls under the corporate commercial category more than anything else.
That’s fine, still feels icky to me personally to watch movies glorifying real life corporations. Not really my idea of entertainment.
Check out BlackBerry.com, that brand name recognition definitely isn’t going to waste. They just serve the enterprise sector now.
BlackBerry still exists and is a pretty big publicly traded company, they just don’t do phones anymore.
Feels like another entry in the “full length, live action commercials” series. Joining Tetris, BlackBerry, Barbie, Jobs, GI Joe, Social Network, Transformers, and even Star Wars since licensing and derivative products make more money than their actual tv and movie content.
I really dislike this trend, even if some of the movies are sometimes good. Feels icky and insincere.
Here’s the infamous quote,
In a clip from a special edition release of his 2006 film, Inland Empire, the director gets very heated up about people watching films on their iPhones. “If you’re playing the movie on a telephone, you will never in a trillion years experience the film,” he says.
“You’ll think you have experienced it, but you’ll be cheated. It’s such a sadness, that you think you’ve seen a film, on your f**king telephone,” he says, barely restraining his rage.
Somewhere David Lynch is in great pain over this being put out into the universe.
He’s in social media so much because of the people that are obsessed with him like OP, not the people that are tired of mindless peons inadvertently propping him up.
There’s a whole list of billionaires that aren’t posted about every hour. There’s absolutely no reason to obsess over this guy.
Most people on the entire planet are aware of how shitty he is at this point. Everyone that would not purchase a product related to him is already not buying said product. There’s no more people to convince. Don’t act like a white knight while degrading the content in this community.
I swear this specific community is turning more people off to lemmy than any other. These type of posts are why.
Another prime example of how shitposting has ruined the internet. Who gives a shit if someone has a funny comment if the content is literally degrading the quality of this channel, lemmy, and the greater internet.
Definitely worth watching. I haven’t read the manga or watched the anime but really liked the live action adaptation. The practical sets are glorious, it is able to successfully present a very absurdist world in a convincing manner, and the actors really seem invest and mesh well with their characters. The fights are also top notch if you’re into Japanese fight choreography.
Slightly less stupid but still watchable does not make me wanna watch this lol
Honestly not what I expected but I’m interested.
