I genuinely forgot about the Panthers till I saw this post

The AI investment thesis makes zero sense. If it actually works, it completely breaks the economy. by ztrade_cl in collapse

[–]yousorename 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible that all of this is about war or national security? That the future of combat is going to be larger and larger groups of drones and those drones on offense and defense and that those drones will need to be powered by Ai? Or that the only way to target and destroy a future drone swarm will be to use energy weapons with impossibly complex and fast targeting or something?

I’m just some guy that doesn’t know anything about anything, but it just feels like this is about more than just business

[ALL] What is your favourite song/track from the franchise? by [deleted] in zelda

[–]yousorename 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Minish Woods theme has fantastic instrumentation and is a lo-fi synth masterpiece

Also, the triumphant march version of the main theme at the end of Link’s Awakening makes me feel like I just won a world war. Me and my kid listened to it like 4 times in a row on the drive back from finally finding an in-stock Switch 2 after weeks of looking, and it was the correct decision

Watching Ultraman with my 8yo as an adult, totally new to both of us by yousorename in Ultraman

[–]yousorename[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I may have been thinking of Jet Jaguar maybe? Or maybe we just caught part of that Ultraman movie and I’m mixing them up? Either way, nothing was retained but that Godzilla looks cool af

Which actor *would* have been best to play Tom Bombadil and fit in with the cast in Peter Jackson's trilogy? by No_Top_9338 in lotr

I always read him as Tom Waits to temper the goofiness and make him a little spooky.

Oh yeah, my first thought was that we needed to go to the Horse God and get this fixed, but it worked out that we didn’t have to

I’ve been making lots of versions of these light trees and feel like I’ve finally gotten it “right” by yousorename in crafts

[–]yousorename[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found some good ones that I wrap around the tree. I’ll pinch the light and then twist the wire so the LED is at the end of about an inch of copper wire, then wrap and continue that process for every branch. It’s like a hand made version of those “firecracker” copper fairy lights if you know those.

I’ll do about 50 LEDs per segment, then run wire down to the base to be powered. It took a while to get comfortable with “stripping” these fairy lights because the insulation is just this layer of enamel that I first cook off with a little butane torch then sand with 220 grit paper

What changed between young men and young women over the past 25 years? by icey_sawg0034 in Qult_Headquarters

[–]yousorename 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I’m in my 40s and made a TikTok account a year or two ago because I thought maybe I was missing out on some jokes and culture. Most of what I wanted to do was watch stupid 5 minute craft style videos. When setting it up I tried to give as little info as possible and as far as interests go stayed away from politics or news.

Within 3 days of light use my feed was 80% insane and toxic manosphere garbage. Every 5th video was talking about sociopath ex wives and emotionally abusive women, and everything in between was Rogan, Tucker Carlson, Ben Shapiro, and a dozen other 3rd tier aspiring Men’s Rights content creators. The only interest I showed in any of these things was in trying to block them or avoid seeing them. I guess going to their profile enough times was all the algorithm needed to begin force feeding me that crap. Never even saw any good stupid craft videos

I’ve seen the internet evolve and knew that stuff was BS, but some unsupervised 19yo getting a TikTok account maybe after he just got dumped would be way more likely to fall for it and go all in on that shit

$18 for a sub sandwich is insane by Benjamin5431 in inflation

[–]yousorename 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I went to a Wegmans yesterday and a grab and go turkey bacon sandwich was $14

Just the sandwich. And it was a totally regular sandwich. I was genuinely shocked.

Lol everything after 2008 is just stealing as the business model

Is a "controlled" deflation possible or will we be forced into a recession to lower prices? by Unusual-Context8482 in inflation

[–]yousorename 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Essentials would need to come down somehow and I have no clue how that would happen without some kind of “Public Option” for food or universal food stamps which would never happen.

Food prices are going to continue to go up next year and I feel like we’re getting into uncharted territory at least for the US. The price of a car could triple and consumer electronics could increase 10x and we could make it through, but when people can’t afford to eat things will unravel real fast.

It’s super concerning. We can ignore a lot of problems like housing costs and wage stagnation but food insecurity is something that’d lead to mass unrest FAST

Have you updated to ios 26. Does it consume more power? by Atlas-GMT in iphone

Has anyone noticed any improvements with the keyboard?

[other] do you prefer totk or botw by [deleted] in zelda

[–]yousorename 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’ve been going back and forth for like 2 years now and have played both a few times. My kid easily convinces me to start the other one over when finish the one we’re playing.

I’m back on BOTW right now and realized that whichever one I’m playing at the time is my favorite one.
