What about the other extreme where you can, for example, be the oldest person to run a marathon? What’s the gaming equivalent of that?

It’s like Lemmy, but very broken.

Why stop there. Just keep on using all the usual names, but make them all unisex.

For example, if Tony is texting to Anna, He will have no idea if Anna is a he or she until they meet face to face. Also, Anna might be expecting to meet a woman, but will be surprised to find that Tony is actually a guy. Then, Anna tells Tony, that they should really talk to Karen for some weight lifting tips because he’s been lifting for years.

Sounds confusing, but you’ll actually know who is married and who is still single. Pretty handy, eh?

Americans already have a confusing number of unisex names, so why not make all names unisex. The gender noun confusion clearly isn’t enough, so why not max out the potential confusion you can create.

Different plants. Got it.

Ok, so if you pull up the entire plant, you get the roots, stem and leaves. I guess straw would be another word for the stem and hay for the leaves.

The wolf brought natural selection into the picture and now all the houses are much better than before.

I’ve been thinking that it would be fun to take a 100% real photo of a stack of real hands from the exact right angle that it looks like a mutated abomination generated by some stupid AI.

What if you want to have more than one account with a provider, but you have only one face?

Many people are ahead used to the DD.MM.YYYY format. They are also already totally ok with the hh:mm:ss format so apparently there’s no problem ascending or descending order. Inconsistency really bothers me, so we should just pick one and stick with it. Preferably the ISO style, if you ask me.

So that’s a “yes“. Just as I thought! Although, with a sample size of just one, the result is hardly anecdotal, let alone statistically significant.

Is it because you think the idea is BS and you assume the worst or because you’re not convinced and the idea requires more evidence to back it up?

Depends on the way you define “have to”. If we take the loosest possible definition, as long as literally anything makes you do it, you have to do it. Could be another human, laws of physics or even your own brain doing stuff you don’t want it to do. In that case, I agree with you. However, people usually aren’t that loosey-goosey with their definitions.

Oh, just realized, this definition also encompasses the case where you want to do stuff. It’s all in the same category at this point. People do stuff because they have to.

I was just thinking that there is a third option. You certainly can do things you don’t need to or even d want to.

An extreme example would be all the various kinds of mental issues. Even phobias count. You don’t need to be afraid of balloons, nor do you want to. However, someone suffering from such a phobia just can’t help themselves.

Say hello to the gigaphone.

Why is it empty? Should there even be something in there? If it’s blank variable before a loop, it probably should be empty before you start appending stuff in it. If that’s the case, great job. 👍

Here are some flowers for you: 💐

Cool. Let’s test that. I can see that I tend to spend time in this community. What makes this place so much more interesting than other places on Lemmy?

Ouch! That was pretty brutal. Goes to show that you have to understand the market you’re trying to operate in.

Olive oil is made of olives… at least in Italy it is. Anyway, what about baby oil? Better not think about it.
