Thank you. I think preachy minimalism is the #1 reason i could have, and all of us could have be put off the idea. It doesn't have to be a religion. Just a set of preferences to focus on simpler things. That's all it has to be.

YES! exactly. But that's also half my point: Lidl, C&A, H&M, Decathlon, waikiki, underarmour, sinsay, salomon... thats already a lot of places we need to either digitally or physically go to browse through.

If you think about it, most minimalists either

1. hate shopping and would love a one stop shop for their needs. currently you end up visiting more places because you know exactly what simple things you want, than some shopaholic who will just buy whatever is at hand wherever they randomly find themselves shopping and wear it for a while. (here the minimalist hates the way he has to spend his time)

2. are addicted to shopping and is their main struggle trying to become minimalistic - and browsing 10 shops instead of 3 like they used to - which will only make it harder for them to step away. (here the striving minimalist will hate the way they feel because they're basically investing even more time in shopping than they used to)

i found black shirts are actually harder to maintain than white ones. a good spot remover can easily save a white one, whereas a black one needs careful washing on 30 degrees, no heat drying to not lose color, no sun drying to not bleach etc. Besides if you pair black pants with black shirts, one will be darker than the other, and look washed out and old in comparison. whereas, if you have a white shirt and black jeans that might or might not be a bit discolored, the contrast will make them look a lot darker and therefore newer.

i like decathlon too tbh. my only gripe is sometimes its a bit too primary colors for my taste. i like muted colors.

btw h&m has very good unbranded undies that last the most if you take care of them well (out of what i had so far)

on waikiki and pepco, i have encountered quite a few quality issues a few years back and stopped trying. might give them another shot - but see, we're already discussing 6 stores, each with SOME simple stuff, and i dont like to keep seeking out those few items that are simple and good.

(also Lidl but you gotta always keep an eye out there)

Plex. My man!

It's great, I bought ad free just for your efforts. But 2 problems so far:

1. error on uploading any image of any dimensions in any sublemmy.

2. can't see the videos, not in preview Mode, nor in full-screen Mode.

What can i/we do?

Nope. Made the larger side 200px, still error. (memes@lemmy.ml)

I can trial and error smaller files. Will get back to you.

I've got admin control. And now you print what I told you.

Good job.

They were dirty so I left them at home because I was in a hurry.

Im also waiting for hydrogen to take off!

Took it off imgur, that's how it showed up.

I've stopped watching news because there's nothing I can do about them.

It either grows and becomes that as well among other things or it dies because 10k users are too few I'd guess.

Thanks, fellow lemming!

Unlike Zuck who doesn't require sleep.

Whadda buncha boobs.

It's a matter of time until enough people like you gather and make something more along the lines of what you're picturing. And I'll subscribe to that sublemmy too and just lurk. More jokes for me, I don't care who made them or what the format is as long as they're fun.

But I think this sublemmy has become our HQ and it will contain a lot of stuff of all makes, sites and qualities.

Yeah, I don't think anyone is funny enough (or free enough in their lives) to produce enough original memes to keep us all engaged for long. For what it's worth, I'll stop sharing off site non original memes (which I select for liking) when there's enough people to populate and have the capability to produce enough original and quality memes. Maybe 50k or 100k. For now we're eating McDonald's because nobody here can cook enough for everyone.

As long as people like stuff posted from other places even if it's not pure meme form, I think it's good enough for now.

If you tried to make an only pure and original memes on here for now, and would police it as such, I bet you'd get less than 5/day which would render it virtually dead.

In time, there will be better and/original memes but the newcomers have to have something to sink their teeth into.

Stuff like this happens:

Been spammed with "Screenshots aren't memes" on multiple posts.

Thanks, glad to be here! I'll try to post less wordy things as it seems to upset some people.

Yup, pretty much.

Nah. 525 people enjoyed the post. If we were all as selective with our posts as you are, we'd have about 10k posts on this platform so far. If you have such high standards that exceed ours, the plebs, you could post the things you deem worthy. You know, actually have a positive contribution.

Don't worry, people don't upvote what they don't like, and if it's truly that terrible, those posts never gain traction.

If everyone would just post what they liked, we'd have lots of content and it would be voted on by the people based on whether it's funny or not. If people get bored by the "text only" or "bean only" formats, they'll just not upvote.

<3 i didn't used to post almost at all on any other social media. I do try to bring stuff I found funny from other sites to keep ourselves going. Kind of bringing whatever good firewood I can get my hands on and throwing it on the Lemmy fire to keep us nice and toasty.

We're 10k users. There's not that much content on here. I didn't post almost ever on reddit, but considering we need content, I steal images I find funny off imgur and post them here in an attempt to add content to the network.

If we fragment our 'funny posts' in tens of subreddits from dozens of instances most users aren't subscribed to or don't often browse, we'll have a lot less to keep ourselves entertained.

Instead of trying to gatekeep when we hardly have enough users, why don't you post things you do find appropriate for this subreddit and just scroll past or downvote what upsets you and move on? There's no place or need for this sort of elitism and offering nothing better in return right now.

Amen to that!

You know it, bröther.

The sex robots will be crazy expensive for a while there. Only the rich will afford them.

I'd bet on raptors, at least for familiarity and close relation to chicken. Pangea fried Caudipterix. PFC.

I'd turn that bad boy into a living-room sized schnitzel in a heartbeat.

*(Historically inaccurate as Caudipterix lived in the late jurassic/early cretaceous, when pangea was already kind of broken apart. Also, it was discovered in China) *

They very likely taste like chicken. Chicken are very closely related to dinosaurs and so are crocodiles. Crocodile/alligator meat also allegedly tastes very similarly to chicken.

What if Satan is Krampus and he's just toning it down for the holidays so he can also be part of it?
