i think the mildly techy sounding waffle is the right way to set it up personally, it lulls you into a false sense of security thinking this is just some random tech nonsense and then bam, porn

yeah but then they'd be spending money to be told they might not be 100% right and perfect 100% of the time, and that's just a waste of money

Yeah, you can only hear the same electrician joke so many times before it doesn't amp you up anymore.

Yeah, like, it doesn't even read like OP intended for the owner to get into trouble, he was just trying not to get himself in trouble.

Judge was based AF.

A community for piano and keys music (lemmy.world)
 

Tickle my ivories, baby

I found the Guitars community pretty easily and was excited to join it, but didn't find one for my primary instrument, keys. I figured I couldn't be the only one in that position, so I set one up. If you like keys-based music, stop on by! (hey, that was a drawbar organ joke)

I hope I did this correctly. I'm new to Lemmy and not really sure what I'm doing, and tbf it kinda feels a bit like the Wild West out here post-Spezhole, so please let me know if I mucked it up somehow.

The human interaction you lose with driving (lemmy.world)
 

I was coming off my gravel ride today and heading to work when I saw a roadie ahead of me, and so I put my head down and tried to close the gap for a bit of an interval effort. He was really moving, so I had to really work for it, but I did get on his wheel eventually. After I'd had a chance to catch my breath, I came up next to him and said something like "hope you didn't mind me catching a wheel for a second there," which he didn't.

Then he commented on my dirty gravel bike and asked what the trail conditions are like in the area, because he'd been just on the road for a few months and hadn't hit the dirt in a while, and so I filled him in. He thanked me, we complimented each other's bikes, and then our routes split and we went our separate ways.

It was just a nice, friendly interaction of the type that you can't have on a freeway. And imagine, if bike commuting was commonplace, we could all be having those kinds of interactions all the time. Instead, we're all isolated from each other in metal boxes on wheels, and that sucks.
