Yup. Maybe she can get a real job instead of just making money owning property.

I'm guessing we won't be as concerned about that as Russia and Chinese meddling got some reason...

This is interesting. Look at all those videos. I wish reporters would stop posting on X, though. Is this a good source? Those Twitter accounts? I'm not too familiar with the Cat and the other reporter they mentioned.

How is LCS Best of 3's So far? (Week 2) (lemm.ee)
 

I know it's probably too early to tell but I've been working weekends lately so it's been hard to watch the LCS and catch up, even though I was excited about this season. How are people enjoying the changes? Bo3's seem like a positive change so far?

What about people from other regions? Have they had changes to their esports that seem positive or negative so far?

I mean, someone has to find out what your local community is doing and write it up on the internet. That's what reporters do, and they need to get paid for it somehow.

Didn't they already reveal their source code to American companies, like Oracle ? If people say they're worried China can manipulate the algorithms, then Oracle will let the US know. What else can they do?

They're just mad they can't do a genocide without being called out by the youths. If anything, the American social media companies are the ones to watch out for because they're actively suppressing news on the content, the thing we're pretending to be worried that the Chinese government will do to this app.

From the people they're colonizing. That doesn't count as defending themselves. I can't say self-defense when I kill you after you try to punch me because I shot you multiple times.

Totally worth not having health care so we can support Israel starting wars around the Middle East.

Who is a fictional character that is loved you find either overrated or you don't get the appeal ? in c/asklemmy
[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

True, true. It''s a good coming of age story in that way. You don't see him grow up physically, but in maturity, confidence, wisdom, and least importantly, ironically enough, power. I say least importantly, because it's the growing in wisdom that helps him defeat the Emperor in the end, not his cool force powers (although that does make the movies more fun to watch).

Do You Add Extra Storage to Your Playstation? (lemm.ee)
submitted 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) by [email protected] to c/playstation

I'm considering buying some extra storage space for my PS5. Last time I was out of town, my partner tried to play a game and they couldn't, because I deleted it to make room. They went to download it but it was out of space, so of course they didn't want to delete anything. That makes me sad because I want to encourage them to use it and game lol.
Plus, I think it would make it easier rather than always downloading and deleting things.

Have other people bought extra storage for PS5? What kind would you recommend?

Do you go for internal or external? Do you have the heat sink if an internal one? Is 4TB enough or overkill? I think I saw that amount somewhere once (unless I imagined it) but maybe 1 or 2 TB is good, and probably easier to find.

How is The Watchers (2024)? (lemm.ee)
submitted 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

We're looking at movies to watch for Father's Day and my dad has already watched most of the ones out right now, so that eliminates the ones I want to see (Furiosa, The Fall Guy) and he's not interested in Planet of the Apes. That basically leaves the Watchers.

Anyone see it yet and have any opinions on it? Going either way to spend time with my father, but want to know how low to set my mind expectations lol.

Where to Start With Ursula K. LeGuin? (lemm.ee)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemm.ee/post/34435904

I've been seeing her name a lot lately in terms of good science fiction and fantasy. I feel like I've lost so much attention span in terms of my ability to read and stuff and I'd like to start getting back into it, perhaps starting with her (or Terry Pratchett lol).

If I start with her, what's a good place to start with her work?

What is the up with the beef between Drake and Kendrick Lamar? And what about J. Cole? (lemm.ee)

I know they're posting diss tracks against each other, but I'm not sure why? What made this start? And how was J. Cole involved? And how has this feud evolved so far?

I feel so out of the loop on this one! All I see is reaction images of the songs and Kendrick destroying Drake, but without the context of why they were posted, I'm still confused.

[Question] What songs do you listen to when lifting at the gym? (lemm.ee)
submitted 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) by [email protected] to c/music

I was inspired to listen to a few new artists at the gym recently by an FD Signifier video on how lately female rappers are going hard in a way you can lift to while recent male rappers have mostly been going for a more, calm, rambling flow that is probably better for when you're relaxing on drugs or driving or something.

So I picked a couple of the female rappers he mentioned that were newer than my aged music tastes (Latto, Megan Thee Stallion, etc.) and added some of their songs to my lifting playlist and ya, some of their songs went pretty hard.

I'm wondering if there are any other good artists I'm missing out on keeping the same rotation forever, so I thought I'd ask the class.

What songs do you listen to when trying to get pumped at the gym?
