Because yesterday was the fifth of November, I looked up Wikipedia pages about the story and person(s) that inspired the movie, V for Vendetta

The Wiki article about the Gunpowder Plot in particular was most interesting.

That show is totally worth watching all the way through IMO. I liked season 1, but season 2 is probably my favorite in terms of story. Keep at it. =)

You can tend to find season recap videos for TV shows on Youtube. It’s been really useful for me, when I want to see the next season that came out but don’t really recall much of what happened since I last watched it.

!macrophotography@lemmy.world would enjoy this as well!

Dude! This is rad!

I thought I’d just check it out and move on, but the subject, aspects and video editing pulled me in more. Solid video share! =D

I thought the benchmark was whether it can play Doom?

OP is uninformed and just found it funny and worth sharing. Good day

I don’t know what community you frequently visit, but I hardly ever see any shitposting comments, edge lord comments, etc., in the communities I frequent.

This is far superior to Hunter2 as a password.

For the less informed, what might that look like?

Hey everyone! Look at @Fridgeratr@lemmy.dbzer0.com! They’re human after all!

(We all have made basic and advanced mistakes. It happens. =))

From personal experience, whenever I’ve put a space in, I am told that spaces are not allowed. I tend to resort to using the minus sign " - " or the underscore sign " _ " in its place.

Sure, this has a chance of eliminating a billionaire, but I can think of two critical errors here.

1. What’s stopping them from just visiting/moving to an island for a weekend, month, year, or more, to prevent them from being killed?

2. Just because someone is dead doesn’t mean that their wealth goes away or reverts to the general populous. I’m not up on how many kids Elon Musk has nowadays (nor do I care to learn about it), but he has over 10 kids, last I checked. And because it’s not public record or hasn’t been leaked, we don’t know if any of them will inherit any of it. But chances are, they do. This then becomes something like a monarchical power problem. (I also don’t recall what it’s called, but there is a thought experiment where you try to determine if killing said person will be the best option to bring about a more peaceful, prosperous, and/or high quality of life in said country, if they are. We have a long line of historical events that often show that by killing one of the ‘evil’ persons, you do run the risk of replacing them with someone even more ‘evil’ than the person before them.

People on these corporate boards will clamor for the top position during a power vacuum situation. And so killing a person at the head of ‘all of this’ doesn’t really resolve the issue at hand. I’m a dreamer, and I’m not the only one. I believe that this all boils down to the need for a grassroots movement to replace the people in power in our governments and change the systems that do not or no longer serve the majority of people well enough or at all.

Final Destination (insert number)?

Just this morning, while watching a saved Youtube video on my phone, I had a bad experience that had me really wish there was a solid contender to Youtube as it’s really gone to shit with its user experience. You watch a skipable ad at the beginning that can be skipped after 5 seconds. It’s for a major jewelry store chain. I’m a dude who doesn’t own nor care to own a watch, necklace, etc. anytime soon. I’m also not seeing anyone. Haven’t mentioned online or in text of marriage or the like. So why am I seeing an ad for this?? Tap the tiny info icon near the number of ads, to see why this ad was targeted at me. “Age group.” FFS.

Skip ad and start into video about space and what’s beyond our solar system. Two minutes or so in, pop out ad appears on my phone screen while the video is still playing. “Gahhh.” Close it. Two minutes later, another broadly targeted ad. “What the heck Why am I seeing a perfume ad?” Skip ad after five seconds. Return to the video that only has about 8 minutes left. Three and a half minutes later, pop out ad. Close ad. Continue watching. Pop out ad shows up. This time, I don’t see an “X” to close it. “Wtf? Why can’t I close it?” Start thinking that I might need to exit fullscreen to see the exit option. Do so, but it’s being finicky. Phone won’t auto rotate now. Try to fix it. Finally get it to work and close the ad that now takes over the comment section and video suggestion just below the video. Close it. “Seriously, someone really needs to become a competitor to Youtube! This shit is outrageous now!”

This seems like the best time to start watching PeerTube videos first, then deal with the hell hole that is Youtube now, if I want to watch more content.

For sure post it to !halloween@lemmy.world

This party sucks… but I seem to keep visiting again and again.

No idea who that is, so no.

Bless your soul for including the meme template!

As a moderator of !lv426@lemmy.world, I disagree with the first two. As a fan of both, I FULLY disagree.
