    -dude currently repairing automated pallet jacks

    They break constantly, lmao. They’re so bad, it’s perfect. The more they break, the more job security I have, and boooooy, do they.

    A human will apply the brakes when they panic.

    Robots don’t panic. Robots go FULL SEND into problems; busted rails, twisted metal. Sensor thinks nothing is there? Nothing is there! whoosh!

    The other workers also hate them and frequently sabotage the automated trucks by putting shit in their way, or running over their markers(small reflectors in our warehouse that the trucks align to).

    It’s just… Part of TikTok is attention-seeking.

    It’s kinda the entire point for a lot of the users and uploaders, that and getting paid to continue the cycle of creating more content.

    If you’re expecting us, as-in, the federated populace on Lemmy and Mastodon to use it, I dunno, man. Sharing personal content is a very rare use case here. We usually stick to news and memes.

    Then again, communities that are rather reliant on a performance like fishing, sports, guitar, drums, and skill toys like yoyos might get a use out of having a safe public place to upload themselves without outside influence.









  • Preservation is an invasive and destructive process. Recreating the experience of watching ‘The Daily Show’ in the 90s or early '00s is already impossible. Language and culture mildew and rot just like leather and wood.

    EDIT: People don’t seem to understand what I’m talking about. Even the people who are responding in good faith seem confused. That’s on me. So I thought I’d try to clarify with an example.

    Take the Mona Lisa. Perhaps one of the most preserved objects in history. It’s so well preserved that it’s impossible to see. Sure, you can look at it, but you won’t see it. Taking a picture of the painting is encouraged, but you can’t get a look at it in your camera roll either.

    If you saw the actual painting hanging on a friend’s wall, your first thought would probably not be “what a masterpiece”, but “why didn’t they remove the default print that came with the frame”? If you go to Paris, you can wait in line to have the “Mona Lisa experience” but the painting you saw wasn’t hanging on the wall, what you’ll see is the Mona Lisa you brought with you.

    (yes, I stole this example from ‘were in hell’ youtube channel)

    Figured I’d make a copy. Who knows, the OP might change it in the future. Gotta preserve the past and all.







  • They’ve been phoning their games in since the WiiU era anyway.

    The last real Nintendo release I felt was original and packed with content was 3D World.

    Everything since feels like they let interns design things en-masse and half bake most of their releases. Zelda and Mario get sandboxes, one 2D release in years, and remakes. There’s Metroid Prime 4, but… if we’re being real, it should’ve come out half a decade ago, not to mention tossing Gamefreak the BOTW engine and apparently not helping, at all with recent Pokemon games if the bugs are anything to go by, Smash netcode issues and not being taken seriously as a competitive sport, gatekeeping their classics behind worse in-house emulators than what you get for free on GitHub, you could write a book.

    …gonna be real honest. Just some chick is actually less of a description than I’d give in this case.

    She was in two romantic comedies, I guess? A lotta Last Holiday fans? She wasn’t known for anything beforehand other than one sitcom spinoff, unless she’s a pop star or influencer or something, in which case… lol?
