This is great, though I really wish they would finally prioritize supporting site isolation and enabling isolated process on Android.

A big part of why a lot of us use add-ons is for privacy and security, but even with more robust extension support, it still won't be as secure as Chromium-based alternatives on mobile until they address that.

DraStic is amazing on midrange devices. Compatibility is excellent in my experience, there's a lot of UI customization available, and there are some nice filter and scaling options built-in. It also has full controller support.

This. We as a community can do our part to downvote bad info (at least on kbin, idk if Lemmy has downvoting or not) and commenting to let people know what's up--but that will only go so far and we're not gonna catch everything. We can also report harmful misinformation that we see, but all the same, plenty of users will still receive and buy into it before it's dealt with. We need well-moderated communities for a reasonable level of peace of mind.

I love most names. I know that sounds stupid, but I have a weird fascination with names. I love meeting people with names I haven't heard before, it makes me really happy. I also love to introduce my friends to people with fake names, like I might introduce two people to each other as Telemachus Entwhistle and Victoria Saint Watercress, then walk away and let them figure out their real names. Sometimes I use people's full names in fake anger, but make up a middle name, like Aloysius or Jezebel, or make up a name that their already full first name might be short for.

One of my favorite jokes in all of TV is the running gag on Psych where the main character introduces his friend and partner, Gus, by a different name in every episode, like Lavender Gumes or Galileo Humpkins.I really don't know why I find it so amusing, but I love it.

I think some of my actual favorite names, like ones I might really name a kid, would be like Ruth, Miles, Olivia, Matthew, James, Joe, Sorrel, Elan, Evan, Lyric, Bear, Atticus, and Cynthia.

I know you didn't mean it this way, but the implication that there are "breeds" of people can be very offensive, as it compares someone's lineage to domesticated animals. Racists have long used the term "breed" to describe disenfranchised minority groups in an intentionally derogatory manner. Culture and heritage are baked into our identities, and they are very dear to many people's hearts and vital to our sense of self, which is why you're getting the responses that you are.

It's also not scientifically accurate, because breeds are bred. They are not naturally occurring variations in a species, they are bred for a purpose, by humans, through artificial selection. It's why there are breeds of dogs, cats, and horses, but we don't normally use that word for starfish or rhinos.

Humans don't have breeds because we are not bred with intention in the way that dogs are. We are products of our environment, our culture, and our history. Race is a construct, and the closest thing we have is ethnicity, which is essentially just our ancestry's geographical origins.

It was originally! SLM did a really sick cover of it.

Besides the obvious ones:

  • "Hell" - Streetlight Manifesto
  • "Wolf Like Me" - TV on the Radio
  • "Anybody Else" - Dom Fera

Also, a bunch of songs by Bear Ghost! "Haunt, The Cartoon Heart," "Necromancin Dancin," "Rivers is a Vampire," and others.

Same. lol As a kid, the first 3 movies were hilarious to me. Now, not so much. But I really appreciate them for what they were back in the day.
