Maybe not the strangest but here are 2 from my vacation to London last month:

2 women walking past. One of them says:

"I talk a lot of shit, but my fart is bigger than my shit."

Then in Covent Garden I met a very polite drug dealer:

Excuse me, do you need any weed or coke? No, well then have a very good evening.

Nice guy, big smile.

The discussion of nuclear power, much like the discussion of communism, is met with entrenched positions on Lemmy.

Ahh yes the: we can't have self signed certificates for security reasons but also can't open up the environment to the web, and we dont have our own CA server, trifecta.

Solution: awkward, manual, certificate import process from a 3rd party vendor.

Yes, no one seems to raise this anymore. AI to me has always been something akin to computer sentience.

Things like 'self healing' systems are being badeged as AI when they're little more than an application load balancer.

I know there is a lot of "the collapse of China lol" takes but the middle income trap is a real danger.

If your country doesn't move to a consumption based economy you're gonna have a bad time.

It was like corporate said "You've gone 6 episodes and we haven't seen the antagonists tits. Spin the wheel... Add a hot tub to their space ship and have a bath scene for no reason."

I used to get Cartoon Network as a kid. I watched Outlaw Star and really enjoyed it. However, in one of the later episodes they crowbarred in a topless jacuzzi scene for no reason.

That sums up my anime experience.

I watched Dragon Ball Z and a bit of Gundam Wing but never really enjoyed them.

I bump into Dragon Ball Z fans occasionally and they're pushing 35 and have themed pillows etc. I think that is mad but I've met more than one person like that.

I have no themed things in my house nor would in buy any.

P.S. I enjoyed Samurai Jack and often say "Long ago in a different land" randomly to my partner.

Any recommendations based on the above?

One of the early chapters in The God Delusion (Richard Dawkins) covers this.

Is there a wiki for the best way to block ads per device type?

I've figures it out on Fire Stick (I know) and Firefox but I have no experience installing android apps via root or developer mode.
