This was obviously made to be car-centric propagandists. /j

Fun info: The US has an estimated 10,000 roundabouts.

Here’s a roundabout database interactive map.

The fact that this video was uploaded to Youtube on 10th of February 2006… and Youtube was founded on the 14th of February 2005… is NUTS!

Also, this is a meme by definition. “A meme acts as a unit for carrying cultural ideas, symbols, or practices, that can be transmitted from one mind to another through writing, speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena with a mimicked theme.”

it’s just in video/clip format.

And finally, this is not an antique meme. This is a freaking artifact of a bygone ‘era,’ and I love it!

Is that… Is that a Homeworld mothership?

Lossless compression Even after reading how it works, it still seems like magic to me.

In no particular order as to why I left Reddit to join Lemmy:

• Reddit became a chore just to see good content. (This is even after the fact of filtering out unrelated or unwanted subreddits in my feed.)
• The comment sections on Reddit became worse and worse with more joke/meme comments than actually related comments, low effort comments, bot spam, and the burial of your comment for no one to see, (or care to reply to,) if you were to comment on a post or comment more than 24 hours after it’s original posting. (Most of the time it felt like you had maybe 8 hours before it seemed to be a waste to comment.) Why would anyone stick around to comment or reply if nearly no one is going to engage?
• (Like many others have mentioned in the comments,) if you mentioned or talked about anything that wasn’t considered good, you were often blasted with downvotes and/or comments.
• How often you saw rinse and repeat content, questions, and sometimes comments. (I’ll admit. I took part in the rinse and repeat content ‘sharing’ and I wish I hadn’t done it for so long. The karma whoring was real for me.)
• Concerns (then later the reality check,) about how much Reddit is an echo chamber.
• /u/Spez showing us who he really is.
• Not liking the direction Reddit was heading. Writing on the wall when they fired Victoria Taylor
• The API fiasco.
• Movement towards IPO.

Lemmy doesn’t have any of these problems that I’ve experienced. Lemmy feels very much like a grass roots movement and I like that. I wish the communities that I am a part of had more active users, but that will more likely come with time.

No worries. The attempt to recall a memory was good enough.

Happy New Year.

I’d like to give a shoutout to all of the Wikipedia editors who created, edited, and updated obscure Wikipedia pages. The sure number of interesting things I wouldn’t have learned about if it wasn’t for you would be quite limited.

(FYI: There is a community on here for Wikipedia pages worth sharing.)

Ooohh. That would make a lot of sense for this situation.

Yeah, that wasn’t my angle at all. I was just wanting the community of askwomen@lemmy.ca to become active again.

No doubt. I don’t understand why it’s getting hate. I simply used the question I asked on askwomen@lemmy.ca, because it hadn’t gotten any replies.

I genuinely had heard plenty of praise that I checked it out more and really liked what I saw in gameplay. I was going to wait till it went on 25% off then pick it up. Then Xbox Game Studios had the brain dead idea to shut down the whole studio that made one of the best new IPs in recent years. After hearing about this, I decided right there that I wasn’t going to buy it ever.

Seeing this comment once… was enough. But a second time? Sheesh. /j

Thanks. …hey, wait a minute.

Oh I see. That’s a solid take on the situation IMO. Haha yeah. Time will tell what comes of this shit show being put on by goons, and loons, set on the verge of collapse, USA. Let dumpster fires light their way.

Are they though? I feel like they just make those that found Trump and Elon to be really weird and rotten, have a laugh. I don’t know anyone conservative, that has commented on these kinds of memes, to me or others I know.

Or did you mean effective in pulling some political stance BBJ reversal moves?

I just finished watching two episodes of Silo season 2. I’m really enjoying the TV show.

This has serious Steven Wright joke vibes, and I love it.

This is a great reason to transfer them over to Pinterest. They stay alive and if you so desire, you can select your collection of artwork to be open to the public to find/see.

Not everyone joins redundant communities. Just shake it off and move along. 👍

You just uninvited yourself from my future family/friend gift giving events.
