According to that post's comments, our community/lemmy also comes up early in searches on Yahoo, Bing, and Duckduckgo! Wooooo!

Was that the Star Trek Wars or the Star Wars Trek?

After reading over https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Intellect_devourer I think you very well could be onto something.

Highlights from that site that follow this notion:

  • They were capable of magically consuming a humanoid creature's mind and memories from a distance of up to 10 feet (3 meters), provided that creature had a brain and succumbed to its psychic assault. If so, the victim's mentality was deteriorated. In the worst case, the victim's intellectual capacity was completely erased, leaving them dazed or stunned and ultimately incapacitated.

    • What happened to Earth beings except for Fry
  • To aid in hunting, an intellect devourer could detect the minds of sentient creatures up to a distance of 300 feet (91 meters), determining both presence and position. -In the infosphere they were not able to detect Fry's brainwaves due to his "nasty in the past-y" affecting his brain.

  • Despite their exposed brains, an intellect devourer was protected by a crusty covering or clear membrane and was resistant to physical harm.

    • Fry was only able to hurt them by thinking

While they are supposed to have legs and claws, there is a illithid talent that they could fly.

Otherwise, the rest of the lore seems exclusive from the Futurama brains.

Knowing the intellect and geekiness of the writers, I agree that there is possible connection between the two. For the sake of creative licencing, I am sure if it was their intention to make them intellect devourers, they made the changes they did for the show. Thanks for sharing 😊.

The other day I ordered a small item. Sure enough, huge box and 1 piece of inflatable plastic. Such a waste. Definitely identified with the scene where Bender is being taught how to package items.

Was a decent episode. Definitely more enjoyable than the previous one for me at least.

Definitely not the best way, but for (American and other?) healthcare companies it is the cheapest way. As a nurse, I do agree there should be better options. As you mentioned before, it's not healthy for a peaceful healing environment, moreover, it makes nurses desensitized to alarms and that they blend in the background and become less effective at what they are supposed to do.

Greetings all! After a discussion with the mod team, we've decided to handle spoilers for the upcoming season as such:

Each week we will open one sticky post a day or so prior to the new episode. Please use that post for all relevant discussion. After one week, commentary on the episode will be considered free-for-all and a new discussion post will be pinned for the following episode release and so forth until the season is complete.

If for some reason you would like to post seperately from the stickied post, please be considerate of others and 1) use [SPOILER] in the post title 2) avoid including images that might ruin another community member's experience in the title-image area. 3) if you are posting directly from the lemmy.world website, please refer to this post on how to use the spoiler function . How to post spoilers in lemmy.

Many users who are accessing the fediverse through third party apps (mlem, jeroba, liftoff, voyager, etc.) may not have the spoiler feature available when reading and/or posting so please keep that in mind.

If anyone else has questions or thoughts on the matter, feel free to reply. We want this to be an enjoyable experience for us all.

Thanks!

 

Me: I'm going to vacuum my floors so hard!!

 

So this morning I tried to reply to a post in the [email protected] community on this, my default instance. Waited about 5 minutes and the submit button was still rolling. I decided to go to my alt lemmy account on a low population instance to attempt to post my reply and within seconds it worked. When viewing [email protected] from any other instance I have lurked from, I do not see the reply, but I still see it posted from the smaller instance. Not sure where the disconnect is but both servers are federated with each other.

Thanks for any help/insight on the matter. Wondering if others are having a similar issue or if it is a known bug.

If you look at the meta icon, take Mom's hair and flip it 180 degrees. Coincidence?

I can hear him hacking in the other room from behind a closed door. I just hope I get some love beads out of this when it's all over 🫤
