Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Are you a feminist? (If so why, if not why not?)English
2·1 year agoI place the result of ‘What’s an egalitarian?’ as better than the die roll as to whether they will take it as one or the other, or even a third interpretation. If I say egalitarian, and they can’t define it, they’ll probably go into a questioning mode, which helps make them more open to discussion. The number of people who could define it AND be against it would be minimal. On the other hand, feminist has become almost an epithet to a significant chunk of the English-speaking world. It’s a word that shuts down empathy and critical thinking for those people, even if they couldn’t define it, which your anecdote helps show it can be hard for people to do at any rate.

15·1 year agoI call myself egalitarian. It distinctly means what you mean by feminist without being so readily confused with what she means by feminist.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do most ppl feel the desire to tell someone (such as their SO) about their day?English
51·1 year agoI also don’t really do it. I get that it’s a social ritual though. The listener demonstrates their interest in the speaker by caring or pretending to care about the minutiae of their day.
I’ve always been inclined toward the maxim, ‘Small minds talk about people. Average minds talk about events. Great minds talk about ideas.’ However, it’s hard to go from nothing to deep insight, so starting with an event can be a great step into tbe conversation.

3·1 year agoCorrect, for killer functionality to work you have to connect the camera to an automated turret system.
I want one. I just can’t justify the expense while my old phone still works.

I don’t get calls much so I change my notification tones much more frequently. Currently I have Reinhardt from Overwatch saying ‘Unacceptable!’ It’s an example of my favorite kind of phone sound, which is situational injections. It’s great to have little moments where someone is talking about something and my phone decides to join the conversation.Friend: ‘It was so annoying. How did he not see that coming?’
Phone: ‘Lucio: Why are you so angry?’Friend: ‘I gotta hit the bathroom.’
Phone: *dramatic orchestra*Friend: ‘Hey, how much do you know about X?’
Phone: ‘Krieger: I probably shouldn’t show you this, but I’m totally going to.’
Don’t worry. If we all go out and buy ourselves a birthday cake, you didn’t just depressively try to fill the hole in your soul with cake, you had cake with fellow community members.

Android@lemdro.id•Google Pixel devices appear to be preparing icon theming using AI and custom stylesEnglish
52·1 year agoIt may or may not be optional, but even if it’s optional it’s a modern tech company so it’ll be default on, mostly because someone at HQ wants to be able to walk into their yearly review and say ‘I ‘led’ the team that developed this ‘feature’ that a full 35% of users didn’t turn off, so that means I increased customer satisfaction by 70%. Please don’t fire me.’ It’s change for change’s sake at best.

Splitscreening is most of what your talking about but the particular thing of framed shots on a coloured background is something similar to ‘photo collage’ so 'd be video collage.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Does anybody else understand they need to make deep connections with people but their social battery has been dead for a while and can't put up with people's BS?
1·1 year agoAnd that’s an availability problem. The advice you see most is directed at the general population, and therefor generic. If you want advice tailored to your specific context, you have to request and pay for it.

Android@lemdro.id•Any way to force keep alarm volume at 100%?English
3·1 year agoAutomate
Not a complex thread either
Flow beginning>audio volume?(proceed: when changed, audio stream: alarm)>audio volume set(100%)>back up to audio volume?
Not rooted means you’d have to start automate after a reboot but otherwise no effort.

Most snakes are like fish. You don’t have them to snuggle, just to appreciate from nearby. Many, even most, can be handled perfectly safely, but it’s not about bonding with them like a mammal. They don’t want to kill you. That’s cats. Snakes just want you to leave the mouse and go.
I’m not such a fan of this view anymorr. Many of the people who go into the military actually believe they are going to do good things for the world but are ignorant of how much evil they will be asked to do most of the time, or like the idea of being of service but can’t get into other, better forms of service because those organizations prefer those who have gone to a university or work on a volunteer basis.

Wait, why?
Don’t you get it? The lack of body hair allows for more efficient air/skin contact to keep you cool. It also reduces itchiness from the socks, which in turn, compress the legs and focus oxygenated blood flow on the brain and vital organs, promoting better code, like a fighter pilot’s compression suit. And all of that is necessary to help counter the cognitive losses incurred by the continuous arousal of wearing the buttplug.
Couldn’t you just not wear the buttplug?
Not…? I don’t understand. What do you mean?
