On the other other hand, we already had the option of choosing Bluetooth headphones back when most phones still offered headphones jacks.

Truth is, there are obviously pros and cons of each, but it just sucks that we no longer have the choice without jumping through extra hoops.

It's almost like Lemmy is just another social media site with the same types of people as every other social media site. Regardless of how seemingly a lot of Lemmy users view themselves and Lemmy as a whole.

The background/track here is completely white because you are only seeing the finish line. It's the same effect, but the finish line is solid white. So the background is solid white.

And the shadows, you gotta remember you are only seeing the slices of the shadows as they were at the finish line itself at different points of time so to might get part of an arm and part of a leg at different angles that are then stitched together.

Edit: this might be better.. the shadows in front aren't being projected ahead. They are just happening at the line earlier than the shadows behind the runners. The only physical dimension here is up and down, right and left represent time, not forward or backwards.

That banner wasn't actually there in real life

Yea it's not strictly a "good" movie. But yes it's fun as hell to watch. Definitely up there near the top of my favorites in the disaster movie genre.

So... Those are supposed to be bad things?

Nah, brad pitt absolutely does not look like he is 35. He may look very good for his age, but not that good.

Your perception of what a 35 year old should look like may have changed as you also aged though.

This is Lemmy, other than the political bullshit it's just a bunch of Linux users telling each other how great they are for all using Linux. None of it is helpful because they are all just preaching to the choir.

Nah you can't see them, they are cloaked.

Maybe a moon, there's actually also a larger planet just below the warbird on the right.

I know this is meant as a more serious thread, but all I can think of is this quote from futurama...

It taught me so much. Like, how you should accept people, whether they be black, white, Klingon or even female... But most importantly, when I had no friends, it made me feel like maybe I did.

For me, I would say I just have a lifelong interest in space and a desire to know what's out there.

Yes, I have made some complaints. Stuff like this, and people like you are one of the main things holding me back from embracing this as a platform. But you said every one of my comments. Did you stop reading after the first one?

And yes, I would like a cookie, do you have one?

Anyways, I dont feel like having a fight with an internet stranger. So, do you like video games?
