They say indica and sativa are both similar these days and all of the perceived differences are psychosomatic

What mis-stated phrases or words do you feel still need to be corrected (online or in person) in 2025? in c/[email protected]

The only one that continues to bug me is using "an" instead of "a" before a word that starts with a consonant sound. I especially dislike the phrase "an historic" (as in "it was an historic victory") which has bafflingly been deemed acceptable. Unless you're a cockney, it should be "a historic". The rule is to use "an" if the word starts with a vowel sound, and "a" otherwise. IMO.

I kinda prefer it though, it's like gen X taunting boomer. Someone calling something "boomer as fuck" wouldn't be a boomer, so it doesn't make sense for it to be boomer styled.

I agree, thank you for putting this feeling into words

The boomer thing isn't the synthwave, it's the OP comic

The pain of playing amazing Nintendo games? So the water level is hard. I'd still give anything to go back to these times and play those games for the first time as a kid again.

You're good my friend. I'm sorry for seeming judgemental!

How do I delete/overwrite my reddit posts without paying $20 for shreddit? (reddthat.com)

I've always meant to do this, but after hearing about the AI thing I want to get it done. Is there no free solution? I have too much history to clear manually.

EDIT: PowerDeleteSuite did the trick, thanks!

[SoD] I made an addon for dealing with full bags (media.forgecdn.net)
 

This is my first real addon, just made it as a fun project and to solve a frustration of my own. I thought I might share it with everyone here as well

If you've ever had to search through your bags for a grey to destroy so that you can loot an item, this addon is for you - it will show up in those cases and show you which items to delete.

The addon is called Delete Cheapest Item and it's available on Curse: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/delete-cheapest-item

This is v1.0, so it's pretty basic and could potentially have a bug or two. Thanks and enjoy!

This bot is bad for Lemmy (reddthat.com)
 

Hi,

I don't post this to be malicious or rude, but simply out of concern.

I believe this bot is killing community growth on Lemmy. I keep coming across would-be-interesting communities only to find a wall of bot posts with zero comments, zero votes, zero engagement. And I walk away disappointed instead of getting into a new community. As, I'm sure, may other users are doing.

Sure, you say, "just block the bot" if I don't like it. But that doesn't stop this thing from stifling any real engagement and growth in communities. Surely if someone can "just...", you can "just" go back to reddit if you want to read reddit content that badly.

I admire the engineering you put into making this thing work. It's impressive, and honestly very cool. But I really think it's actively disengaging users, when Lemmy has enough of a hurdle to overcome in growing new communities.

Thats just my 2 cents. I'm not sure it will mean much, but I felt I had to share it. Again, no ill intent against what you've accomplished in creating this. Best wishes.
