Japan suspends launch of rocket carrying moon lander because of winds
  • Reminds me of Thunderbirds GO!

  • Did anyone watch Ahsoka? What'd you think?
  • It was fine. I’ve seen all the shows so I get the backstory and references.

    That being said, there are just too many Star Wars and movie cliches to be bearable:

    Oh wow she cut her hair dramatically, she’s such a rebel and such a badass. (Cheap and overused character moment)

    Staring pathetically at a spaceship flying away after a lightsaber duel (has happened four thousand times in Star Wars)

    “Get ready!”

    Lightsabers are harmless

    Fixing a bomb under a ticking time clock (false peril)

    Ancient artifact leads to the location of a place or character in the present (another cliche and cheap writing)

    Another star map mcguffin (overused cliche)

  • Blue Beetle Takes Down Barbie With a Not-So-Super $25.4 Million Weekend Box Office Victory
  • Movie looked like total garbage based on the trailers.

  • Nord Stage 4 piano review
  • Super weird, just bought a Nord Grand and this pops up in a feed that rarely posts music tech stuff

  • What are the worst scenes in all of star wars?
  • On first viewing it was awesome, then the reality set it after awhile

  • What are the worst scenes in all of star wars?
  • Ugh that scene TFA derailed it in microseconds. So much stupid hand waving by JJ. That movie started on such a high note, then every minute following the opening act was like watching a bouncy house slowly deflate.

  • HW News - Linus Tech Tips' Terrible Response, ESMC, & Starfield x AMD GPUs
  • He’s an entertainer, but also an idiot

  • Adderall side effects
  • I’m on 5mg ER and had minor side effects. Initially I couldn’t get a boner, but it also made me insanely horny almost in a deviant way. Masturbated like 4-5 a day in the first few weeks. That all went away thankfully. Some teeth grinding and dry skin stuff, that all seems to be getting better but those side effects lasted a lot longer, probably about a year or two. Haven’t upped my milligrams, still works three years later

  • What's your natural talent?
  • I have perfect pitch meaning I can hear a note and be able to tell you witch note it is and at which octave

  • Why *is* everything going to shit?
  • There’s got to be a more scholarly name for that trend which has existed long before the invention of the word “enshitification”. What is it?

  • Speak American
  • Funny because “American” isn’t even a language.

  • Red Dead Redemption coming to Switch
  • Instant buy, been waiting to revisit this game. Surprised it even runs in Switch

  • Lemmy's version of Place is so much better than Reddit
  • Except for all the stupid MLP shit, I agree

    What was your favorite part of falling in love? What did you experience?
  • Oof, going way back here. The first time I fell in love? It was insane. I was 16 and so was she. It was crazy stupid love. So much passion, but it was ugly too. My favorite part was losing my virginity to someone I cared for deeply and visa versa, second favorite part was finally getting over her years after the breakup. It was an awful one, embarrassing and cringe inducing in a lot of ways, but it also made me a better person. Wouldnt give all that happiness and pain up in a million years, and this is 25 years later.

  • Star Trek presence on Canvas growing!
  • Didn’t know this was a thing so I visited the canvas and saw it’s completely overrun by MLP. I guess I now know the demographics of the average Lemmy user.

  • This is already the best app in circulation

    Great job, search works great, notifications are there, interface is really nice. This is now my new favorite app. Thanks for all the hard work. Taking donations?

    Are we using Lemmy correctly?

    What I think could make Lemmy superior to Reddit is the ability to create themed-instances that are all linked together which feels like the entire point. I've noticed that a lot of instances are trying to be a catch-all Reddit replacement by imitating specific subs which is understandable given the circumstances but seems like it's not taking advantage of the full power that Lemmy could have.

    Imagine for a moment that instances were more focus-based. Instead of having communities that are all mostly unrelated we had entire instances that are focused on one specific area of expertise or interest. Imagine a LOTR instance that had many sub-communities (in this case "communities" would be the wrong way to look at it, it would be more like categories) that dealt with different subjects in the LOTR universe: books, movies, lore, gaming, art, etc all in the same instance.

    Imagine the types of instances that could be created with more granular categories within to better guide conversations: Baseball, Cars, Comics, Movies, Tech etc.

    A tech instance could have dedicated communities for news, programming, dev, IT, Microsoft, Apple, iOS, linux. Or you could make it even more granular by having a dedicated instance for each of those because there's so many categories that could be applied to each.

    What are your thoughts?

    Discuss. Does it look kinda cheap to anyone else or am I going crazy?

    Boba Fett rumored to appear in The Mandalorian Season 4; No Book of Boba Fett Season 2 - Bespin Bulletin
    bespinbulletin.com Boba Fett rumored to appear in The Mandalorian Season 4; No Book of Boba Fett Season 2 - Bespin Bulletin

    New comments from a reliable Star Wars insider reveal that Boba Fett will feature in the fourth season of The Mandalorian.

    Well this is a no brainer, I wasn't super happy with BoBF (as Im sure a lot of other people weren't either) and Im sure that LFL knows that it was a rush job. I think Boba Fest works best in the shadows off camera and popping in from time to time for awesome appearances, he just doesn't have main character traits at all. It would have been nice to see him go bounty hunting rather than become a new crime lord. It would have been perfect for the episodic format. Instead we got snotty teenager and half built sets.

    Welcome to the new Star Wars community!

    Please read the sidebar, I have no idea how to moderate or even how it works on Lemmy but willing to figure it out unless it becomes too much work in which case I will need some help. Anyway, just helping to build out Lemmy.world a bit more. If the community grows I think it would be fun to create our own instance with tons of sub communities: Legends Books, Canon books, games, movies, tv etc. For now all discussion will happen here. Just a reminder that it would be better to post memes in the Star Wars memes community instead of here, ideally this would become more of a place for discussions, reviews, and hype.
