Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•When driving, are you able to keep the car perfectly centered or slightly off to the side?English
1·6 days agoI tend to have ‘lazy lean’ when driving, where I have my vehicle slightly lean towards the boundaries of the lane itself. Though I do try to keep it fairly center.
Lindsay Lohan, when she was rocking the red hair and before her substance issues. Like, rawr!

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Whats the most boring unpopular opinion?English
94·13 days agoThe pineapple on pizza thing is one of them. It can be done, I mean, just don’t make the pineapple chunks overpower the taste of the other flavors of the pizza itself or just add something like ham slices or whatever to make it more palatable.
Or you know, shut the fuck up about pineapple on pizza and don’t fucking bother. Such a stupid trivial thing that took off for absolutely no reason.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How can I best help prevent people from committing suicide?English
1·13 days agoThe sad harsh reality is that, there’s not much that could be done unless you’re to commit them to therapy or have a wellness check summoned on them.
Suicide hotlines are only as good if someone suicidal has the willpower to call them, unfortunately, that’s either here or there.
But if someone wants to really go, they’re going to go and there’s nothing you can do about it.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do people even mean by "If you don't use AI, you'll fall behind"?English
7·13 days agoIt’s from the same people who tell you to “GET IN EARLY” for whatever hot trend is about to take off, usually involving markets and trade.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you think you are a good person?English
1·17 days agoProbably not.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What movies out there have horrible taste and poorly thought-out plots but were excellently executed?English
2·17 days agoIt was the only honest one of the whole bunch. The rest were just drenched in Bay’s style.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you think of the expression "basic knowledge"?English
3·18 days agoIt’s yet another subjective thing because it varies from person to person. Basic Knowledge from Person 1 will say “common sense, simple math” and Person 2 will say “manners and developing respect”. I mean, it’s everywhere.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's your overall opinion on generative AI?English
3·18 days agoIt has its uses. It’s just ruined by the bad apples of people who’ve long have had malicious intent where if you put anything that was intended for a good purpose in front of them, they’d ruin that for everyone.
For example, when there are things I do not know about like objects, I can take a picture of it, direct and show ChatGPT by asking what it is and it’ll tell me. It’s convenient to talk to an LLM to understand phrases, slang, slurs and their history about them in real time. I also have enjoyed using it to fix and enhance images that my phone’s piss-poor autofocus fucks up on with some images.
I think what really ruins AI is that, select people and companies are way too heavily reliant. It is not a solve-everything tool. It is not something you go to about everything, like mental therapy. It is not something you should be using to cheat on homework, to have it help you with getting by in colleges and school that rely on your own problem solving skills to navigate.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you think of Christopher Nolan's Batman Trilogy?English
8·19 days agoI felt that they were the most definitive Batman movies we’ll get for a while. I don’t think it was fair for people to uphold Dark Knight Rises against the Dark Knight, because the bar was already set high. It was all a nice breath of fresh air to have a series of movies that didn’t play up to a lot of fan service like the MCU did.
To this day though, I really don’t like how growling Batman got when he spoke. What was up with that? Give him a freaking cough drop.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What does Lemmy have that Reddit wishes it could have?English
01·27 days agoKids and Teens online is such a wormy issue. They’ll be everywhere, lying about their ages, lying about who they really are .etc They’re just problematic little liars at every turn, fucking things up for the rest of us, because their parents are stupid and garbage at handling them.
We wouldn’t have an issue with social media, with IDs, with chat room or even Discord servers if it weren’t for them. Fuck them, they don’t belong online. The internet should be for 18+ users. It’s clearly evident that teenagers and children in general, cannot handle anything online. And the only reason they sortof can now, is because of the lengths the laws and egregious moderation that consists of the sanitization of online content have gone to ‘protect’ them.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's something in your life that you got through that you didn't think you'd get through?English
0·28 days agoMy high school. I just didn’t think I’d come out with a diploma and that my entire school ‘career’ had been nothing filled but setbacks and directionless days. Yet I somehow came through.
I didn’t think I’d make it past my 20s, because at the time, I was a very overweight teen that carried it over into their 20s. I’ve heard stories of people who’ve been overweight that’d never see lengthy lives because the burden of weight would be too much.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What’s an obscure but concrete technical fact that keeps creating preventable issues in the real world?English
1·28 days agoMan, humans have fundamentally and irreversibly fucked up this planet. We burn coal, so we have that problem you mentioned. I learned recently how chemical companies have done decades of a poor job just dumping chemical waste wherever they want or developing things that does more harm than good at the planet’s expense.
Enjoy it while it’s here I guess.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What it something a parent did that damaged your relationship with them forever with no recovery.English
1·28 days agoMetaphorically speaking, but putting the boot down on the neck that is the form of my individuality. They both did a terrible job in preparing me for life. Their idea of readying you for life is going on tireless banters about themselves and maybe a couple lessons dropped in between. There’s just no recovery when parents just do not prepare for you for life, leaving you into a life full of struggle and improvision.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the most unforgivable sin done in media that you're still bitter about?English
1·29 days agoWhere also that nobody is allowed to be nuanced or central.
Things either are the best thing or the worst piece of shit ever. Being in the gray is a huge no.
I’ve no hope that someone will remember a thing of me. Because the only people that will remember things of me, are those I’ve met in my lifetime. And they too will be gone.
I don’t get this question.
