That is only because the cats sense that you don’t like them. If you actually liked them they behave pretty much as you experience dogs does to you.

Apparently it is a popular American myth.

It seems like you are mainly criticising fans (perhaps imaginary fans) rather than the show itself. I do agree that the later seasons are just not as good as the first ones, and personally I have little interest in the newest season, it never should have been revived in my opinion, it is just going to end up like the Simpsons.

I will gladly rewatch old episodes though, and no, not because I think it predicts anything, but because it is damn funny.

such as with its views on theology and politics which are trademark 90’s views.

You are getting me curious. Could you give some examples of what trademark 90’s views on theology and politics are?

Exactly my impression as well.

Kinda like how text isn’t actually text when you are dreaming because your brain doesn’t want to spend resources recreating actual words and meaning when you are sleeping.

Nothing wrong with them, but a lot of “alternative medicine” special interest groups wants you to believe there is, as evidenced by a lot of the links uncritically posted in this very thread alone.

In most of the world rapeseed oil is considered a neutral vegetable oil, and is definitely not strong flavoured. I don’t know what you do to it in Australia, but it isn’t being done most other places.

Their posting history reveals them to be a racist troll.

You are talking purely out of ignorance. The majority of the population on Earth are getting on just fine using celsius with none of the problems you claim to exist.

Also “really cold” and “really hot” are purely subjective terms which varies a lot from person to person and from location to location.

What a bizarre claim.

That depends. For example in a lot of Europe there aren’t any air conditioners in houses, so it only controls heating.

No AC here, only heating. So it is off during summer.

also Hitler was an effective leader, which we should all remember as a cautionary tale about how effective horrible people can be

That is not a factual claim. He was very effective at gaining power, but his actual reign was far from effective, most of it counterproductive to his own goals, and the actual system of decision making in Nazi Germany was a huge mess.

Well some of us have, but a huge swath (perhaps a majority?) of people haven’t and will happily continue to use these things as their main entry point for information seeking on the internet.

The line is that you don’t criticise tankies/hexbear on lemmy.ml. They don’t take kindly to that sort of thing.

Again, this is already being done infinitely more efficient and secure with existing technology.

NFTs doesn’t let you own anything but a link. And it is inefficient, insecure and energy wasting. Also you can already do what you are suggesting with existing technology.

I am not familiar with the band, could you link the buzz feed article you are referring to?

Just because that is the origin, doesn’t mean it was a scam then or now.

It can have legitimate utility, for example I want to exchange money for international services without a credit card or mailing an envelope of cash/cheque.

It does it infinitely more inefficient, slower and insecure than all other existing alternatives that can do this (and there are a lot of alternatives which doesn’t involve blockchain). Which is also why people doesn’t use it for this.
