  • The issue for me is that musicated poetry has to be good poetry in first place. Generally, the voice even if good just interferes with the music unless it is a choir. Plus I've always had a hard time parsing lyrics by ear... I'd never considered cross-culture universality.

  • When you go to karaoke, do you/your group usually sing seriously, with your heart, give it your best or do you sing as to make fun of the songs in a playful way?

  • I'll add my own experience: in uni, we'd go in groups where half sung from their heart and the other half (I was in this one) was mostly sarcastic...I always wondered if it was because each subgroup was from a different culture (sincere singing: friends from asian country(ies), insencere: friends from european countries).

  • What recent books or articles have shifted your worldview?

  • Great Expectations (yes, by Dickens) pushed me away from "trying" a religious affiliation :)

  • Why is Lemmy so US-centric? The largest instances are in Europe, aren't they? So why does it have to be US news trolling as if it were Reddit?

  • I thought I understood US politics...even if it was by osmosis given the sheer volume we're exposed to...but lately I felt like I only understood the dem half...after the election I'm not sure and by now I have this "there is no hope of understanding this mess, different culture, different values" that I get from trying to understand Indian politics.

  • What are the low-rated movies you enjoyed the most or think should be rated much higher?

  • Those just reminded me of another one I like and has a sub 6 score: Beverly Hills Ninja :D

  • I wouldn't say it was prophetic, because most of it was already there in 2000, but less virulent. But yeah, Mike Judge had to push against the industry to get it out, so at least some corpos were aware of what he was saying too. That is why it wasn't higher, because Fox tried to neglect-kill it.

  • how many people came to this platform due to leaving / being banned from Reddit?

    Jump

  • Reddit is a shit platform, became worse with the IPO and LLMs, but mainly, to me, the moderation is completely haphazard and the shitty posters were let loose. The inconsistency in moderation made me give up on being constructive.

    Here, if you find an instance and communities with good ground rules you agree with, it works. You even have a modlog for transparency.

  • No, Ubisoft's EULA clause ordering you to destroy your games isn't new, nor is it unique
