Deleted my account today. Their website is unusable on desktop or mobile. Their android app is also terrible. Infinity for android was really nice to use and made using Reddit a pleasant experience.

But then I’m get drawn in to looking at the Popular/Trending stream and it was doing my head in. Third party apps couldn’t filter this to a country specific stream so it was only US content that I am not interested in. Honestly it seems like a shit show over there and I don’t need to be bombarded with such negativity especially when it’s not relevant to me. And switching to use the Reddit app was not going to happen.

I tried Lemmy out at the start of the blackouts and have found it a much more pleasant place to be. I can self host it too, which is a bonus.

I haven’t missed it and it’ll just be one of those places I once went.

I even sometimes walk out of the room to do something else when the TV adverts come on, otherwise I ignore them. No one has ever accused me of denying a tv channel of revenue.

I’d put my headphones on and listen to something loud.

As a former climber that film made me angry

Are you talking about the first one or the 4th? After I watched the third I gave up on the franchise, it was so bloody awful in every way. The first one was a good film and it had been going downhill since

I didn’t know that was a thing. I’ll have to find that one and give it a go

I know all about those, but it doesn’t stop me eating crisps and sitting on my arse

Terrorvision were the first rock band I heard and was like, ‘this is it’. In was sat on the floor in the living room listening to the radio on big ass 80’s headphones and Alice What’s the Matter came on. I was hooked and from then on I’ve been a rock and guitar fan. You just can’t beat a good overdriven rock guitar sound it’s magical.

I used to spend a whole lot of time on the Winamp forums where the community was just top notch.

I met my first girlfriend on MSN Messenger. ICQ used to be great too.

What did you think the past was like?

I use namecheap.com with the DNS on Cloudflare

Imagine a town with lots of people where everyone shits in the street. It’s that authentic smell.

Just Cause 3. It’s just wild fun action and I like tethering enemies to helicopters.

I keep watching this little short every once in a while: The Missile Knows Where It Is… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZe5J8SVCYQ

Ability to secrete custard from my hands at will.

Lets hope the whole fediverse gets to answer this question. I need answers!

Yes. Pressure and temperature are the main factors influencing the speed of sound through water, which is very important when calibrating sonars as you need to know how quickly the sound will travel to know how far away a response is.

I grew up in York and the Jorvik Viking Centre is brilliant. It really really smells, but that’s the point, it’s authentic to the time.

If I’d done a shit that massive I’d want my surviving family to put it on display too.
