Good point. Assholes gonna asshole.

Ahaha true. But as much as those folks annoy me, I don't want to hurt them.

I see it both ways. Cycling is my main form of transportation but even I get furious when dudes are flying down a crowded sidewalk rather than the road or the bikelane one street away. Sometimes, sure, it's about safety but a lot of times it feels like "but I don't wanna go all the way to the bikelane!"

Hell, yesterday I saw a guy on an electric bike rocketing around and nearly hitting folks on the sidewalk rather than ride on the fairly empty, generally slow, two lane road.

I thought LLMs were better than this.

I didn't make this up, you wrote:

I pointed out that you don’t practice what you preach.

And I'm **still **baffled as to how you've come to that conclusion. The only thing you've shared is that ~20% of my votes are downvotes? Which somehow you've decided goes against this simple thought:

But the downside is that people then upvote or downvote based on their preferences, not the community’s.

So, what on Earth are you talking about?

Edit: Or, you could do the normal adult thing and just say "oh, my bad, I got confused as to whom I was responding" or "my mistake, I misread what you wrote and kind of dug in there" etc. Honestly, admitting you've made a mistake isn't a sign of weakness or stupidity, it's a sign of being a functional adult. (A valuable lesson to learn well.)

I'm still so curious about how you decided that this simple thought:

But the downside is that people then upvote or downvote based on their preferences, not the community’s.

somehow secretly also means “don’t ever downvote” ?

Thanks, that really means a lot as that's pretty much exactly how I try to live!

Oh that app sounds incredibly useful, would love to hear how that works out!

But seems like a great times!

Sounds like a pretty great weekend you've got lined up! Do you know what kind of movies and which boardgames?

[–] MyBrainHurts@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 weeks ago

Oh man, Invincible has been almost too much fun. What a goddamn blast that one is. Unsure if I love it or the Boys more.

Lots!

My co-ed soccer team lost a heartbreaker of a championship game, but goddamn we've improved and I'm excited for next season!

My softball team is wrapping up our season tonight and as we've all enjoyed each other we've started talking about what to do as a group for the offseason, so I'm excited to see how that turns out!

My friend and I have plans to work on his cabin in the fall with fewer mosquitos etc and that's always been a blast.

The international film fest is coming to town soon and even in a down year, there's a dozen that look pretty fun to me. Plus, a few friends I don't see as often as I'd like (they're busy starting families etc) usually catch a few together which is great for the soul!

Oh, and one of my film fest favourites, Deathgasm, has a sequel coming out soon and it's great to see an absurd but wonderful indie flick do well. I am stoked to get high as balls and watch the hell out of that.

Then it's the winter and I'll take a lot of mornings off to ski and work the afternoon, which is an amazing combination.

Work's paying for a few courses in the fall and winter semesters so I'm quite stoked to up my skills for free!

And finally, kind of dumb but I've started persona 5 royal, it's my first JRPG in maybe a decade and it's just been delightful so I'm pretty excited to take that journey.

I pointed out that you don’t practice what you preach.

That's uhhhh, an interesting conclusion.

How do you mean? Have you decided that this simple thought:

But the downside is that people then upvote or downvote based on their preferences, not the community’s.

somehow secretly also means "don't ever downvote" ?
