We probably don’t agree.
I probably said something you didn’t like.
You look lovely, by the way. New shirt?

I’m never sure when it comes to America, but I’d love to move there. Like us Aussies with dropbears and Americans, I was totally convinced by your post haha.
I’ve always wanted to visit a Bucky’s! We’ve got nothing like it here, so it’d be a genuine experience.
Onii-Chan@kbin.socialto A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•Which stage of capitalism is this?21·1 year agongl the fact you can buy alcohol and ammunition at the gas station over there is making me jealous af. We legally have to have entire separate stores for those things, no exaggeration.
It’s wild how different the refueling process is between our countries. Paying at the pump was trialed here about 10 years ago, but next to nobody used it. We just rock up to the servo, pump our fuel, then walk inside to pay. I can’t see it changing anytime soon. Some rural, more crime-ridden areas require pre-pay, as well as a few locations in urban areas between 11pm and 5am, but even then, you still walk inside or up to a window on the actual building to pay.

No shit, I saw fucking Afterpay available for petrol at the pump the other week. I’m Australian, so I’m unsure if this ‘buy now, pay later’ shit is available for gas over in the States, but it was certainly a shock to see here.
Onii-Chan@kbin.socialto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Massive issues with sleep and desperate for a solution.3·1 year agoMagnesium threonate cured my insomnia, it’s fucking wild how well it works. I’d tried everything until I discovered it, from melatonin, to antihistamine sleeping pills, all the way to downing 350ml of whiskey every night just to force sleep.
Magnesium works better than every single thing I’ve tried (but you HAVE to let yourself fall asleep when you feel it starting to work.)

Onii-Chan@kbin.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are your favourite lesser known websites?7·1 year agoCame here to post EveryNoise. Absolutely incredible site that just fucking WORKS. Can’t believe I went as long as I did without knowing about it.
Onii-Chan@kbin.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What, like Pandora, Spotify, etc is out there that I could add music I have on my phone/etc?1·1 year agoInnertune. It hooks into YouTube music without any ads, no account creation required, offline listening, and it’s free. One of the best apps on my phone.
Onii-Chan@kbin.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some personally spiteful things you want to do against society because of how much you don't like it's direction?5·1 year agoI’d prefer to use my vote with stupid optimism that things may get better instead of ‘punishing’ society because people are, for the most part, dumb as fuck. I believe things can improve. I’m not going to let self destructive sentiment win out even in dark times.
Onii-Chan@kbin.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•‘My whole library is wiped out’: what it means to own movies and TV in the age of streaming services52·1 year agoLiving in Australia means piracy is essentially legal - individuals can only be taken to court for the cost of one physical copy of the pirated media, so companies don’t even bother as long as you aren’t distributing. The more things in this area get worse, the more justified I feel in filling up my 10TB HDD.
Onii-Chan@kbin.socialto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•As someone who is aging. Late thirties. How can I keep my finger on the pulse of current trends, particularly in music?15·1 year agoEarly 30’s here. I was at a small gathering my best mate put together about a year ago, and his 19 year old nephew was there. He expressed his interest in anime and we got chatting. While showing me some newer anime-related TikTok stuff (I have no social media myself and haven’t really kept up with modern anime), I heard some fucking awesome ‘aggressive trap’ stuff and asked him who the artist was. It was Lil’ Darkie and I was immediately hooked. I went down a rabbit hole searching his best stuff as well as other similar artists, and now have a huge playlist of great music I’d have never discovered on my own.
imo music discovery is a pretty organic process for most people. It’s cultural and spreads via word of mouth. Chatting with younger people may be the best way to go, but understand that the youth rightfully don’t want us in their spaces lmao

Onii-Chan@kbin.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Has anyone else gravitated back to *facebook* a bit?1·1 year agoYou couldn’t pay me enough to go back to that cesspool. Three years free of it, and have only experienced positives. As another user also stated, I’ve got social media blocked on the DNS level, as well as no longer using reddit.
Kbin and Lemmy are pretty good, but I still limit my usage.
Onii-Chan@kbin.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•Gemini: Who negatively impacted society more, Elon Musk or Hitler?1·1 year agoNo, and the answer isn’t policing speech. The block button exists for a reason. Use it.
Onii-Chan@kbin.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•Gemini: Who negatively impacted society more, Elon Musk or Hitler?1·1 year agoLegitimately yes. You can call me whatever you like.
Honestly, a lot of first party GameCube games have aged incredibly well. Mario Party, Wind Waker, Warioware, Smash, Sunshine, Luigi’s Mansion etc. all still look fantastic today, resolution aside.
