Lost Girl was pretty decent. The main character is bi.

A couple of years short of your timeline, but Riverdale had a couple on the show.

I believe it was originally supposed to be a kiss that ended the show, but they didn’t get their way.

I agree tipping should go away, but I’m wondering how those economics would work out? Most food places barely break even, I can’t see anyone being able to pay their servers more, so they would still pass that onto the customers.

Add to this that people aren’t really smart. I remember some time ago, some places testing out paying their waiters, plus showing how much food would be with tax included with no surprised. People preferred paying more with tipping, the big price sticker drove business away.

I don’t believe in reincarnation, but one thing that isn’t mentioned enough is that there aren’t enough “souls” for everyone to have a reincarnation. If you rewind the clock back, once the original (for the sake of this exercise) 100 people died, the next generation would have 200-300 people already alive due to multiple children, which means they would halve mostly new souls. Fast forward to today, I’d imagine a lot of people would have baby souls.

I had rules until I started getting an allowance and could guy my own games. That was around the time of GameCast.

Rules

• Nothing M rated
• Only 1 new game per year, so choose wisely
• We could rent from blockbuster, but I couldn’t rent the same game more than once, so I better finish that game in 3days, 5 days if they were feeling generous that week.
• I was allowed to borrow games between friends, but since I had like 4 games to trade, they never wanted to let me borrow their games.

Likely because 99% of the time he doesn’t shoot people.

This may sound harsh, but the fact that you have to ask is already a barrier. Anyone in the arts making money from their art, is making money because they stand out. With so much easy access to programs that create, there is a surplus of artists and no enough consumers of art.

As for Etsy, they are going to start deprioritizing copycat pieces and getting behind more original content, because their website is flooded. Competition on that platform is about to get harder.

People famously say making money with 3D printing is hard. If you still want to try, then you’ll need to go around and try to solve for issues people haven’t thought to solve and go print those solutions.

If you want to do things like coloring books, your best bet may be to go around to daycares, doctor’s offices and other places children may get bored and ask them if they would want to buy from you. The problem you are facing there is that most little kids today just play on iPads.

It’s a habit that I think sparked from Reddit exodus and people wanting to remove traces of themselves.

I know some people disagree, but it feels like walking into someone’s library and just setting books on fire. You’re destroying some posterity and the goal of place like Lenny where we want to gather people and information.

Instead of going scorched Earth, we should treat this as a public place where what you say is out of your control once you have said it. We should be practicing mindfulness in how we use the internet, like we used to back in the day.

The common practice on Reddit used to be creating throwaway accounts (some still do that here) to ask those more personal questions, but I think more and more people are just destroying accounts all together every few months.

It’s a less of an issue on the communities where people are asking for personal advice that is very bespoke to the person (even though that advice could in theory help others in the future) and more of an issue in the communities where knowledge is being shared.

I think the larger hurdle on Lemmy will be the fact that there will always be many clashing ideologies and people will never agree on the way people should be living their lives.

Same! I usually watch the first one once a year, but I try to get the fully trilogy in.

That second website is horrible on a phone.

From what I’ve found, if we’re going by population, then Jacksonville, Florida seems to be the largest red city.

Boiled down to “Me in charge. Come in” as a response to leadership.The reality is they rented out an office to hold 200 people, laid off half of them, and then were upset the place always looked empty when they brought clients around. It went from “You all need to be in office on Wednesdays, so we look like a big company”, to wanting everyone to return.

The problem is a good majority of people had moved away during covid. Those were the first people to be laid off unless they were superstars. They had a lease agreement until 2026 and were already subletting the previous offices (They kept moving into new spaces as they grew before other leases were up) that also had long contracts. I am no longer there, but rumor is they are trying to sublet the 200 person office and find yet another small space. They are slowly turning into a real estate company.

You’re not… supposed to tell these mortals about being immortal… it’s literally in the first page of the handbook.

It’s been done in a few places. Fallout and Starwars have been mentioned, but there is also the Maniac series. And while not as hopeful as your example, Blade Runner and Dune also stagnated in terms on communication with no internet.

I honestly didn’t even think about it from that point of view. That’s a really interesting perspective. I’ve known instances of Americans going overseas and realizing they are suddenly a minority. They do not like it at all.

That was the general consensus from what I read about using the term “minority”. As someone who has been labeled a minority their entire life, the term didn’t strike me as odd from a technical standpoint point, but I can see where it would not sit well for many people.

I’ve gone down the rabbit hole and gsm is apparently a common incorrect way to say it. Also a lot of LGBTQ people dislike the term.

I just learned about GSM two days ago here on Lemmy. Now I am learning about GRSM, and while I like both, learning that there is now an additional letter leads me to believe it may go down the same rabbit hole.

I have to assume people will have different ideas of minimal, but I just watched Love Me, and I think it counts

A windows app that shows you the space things are taking up on your computer so you can easily delete them. Usually helps me clear out a ton of space.

Thank you. I should update my apps more often.
