the problem with cynism, is that it get nothing done. We have to try, even though it is hopeless

why the link : https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/feb/10/six-men-epstein-files-unredacted dont work?

ok I see. I sometime get that broken image logo too. I didnt know where it came from. So some instance are blocking or are blocked by reddit. That’s a shame. I guess I will try from now on , to take the extra step : download the image from reddit, and upload it proper on lemmy

a picture hosted on reddit use their bandwidth, without giving them any real benefit? No real user see anything from reddit from my post. Or am I missing something?

Because , that a lot of extra step for no real benefit to host a reddit image somewhere else. Sometimes reddit img might get deleted, but usually it is just because of a repost, so might as well be deleted here

the problem is that the avif format, is not embedded. When I post it, you have to go outside of lemmy to see it. Or do I miss something?

you’ll be glad to know that 2 others users made the exact same comment, hours after yours. Fist time I see a comment copied so many times, and as no- US folk, first time I heard of this so popular saying

the avif format doesnt seems to work on lemmy

Hey, why as of february 26 didnt you post anything on the site in 2 years of presence?

this is a new study 2026 that try do make an argument for the battery and its use. It know perfectly it is an hard argument to make , and the study address the critics from the past

Mary-Joan?

I will stop argue with you. You asked the shows we engaged with, while considering it bad. Rather than yucking your yum, the better approach might be to say why I actually engaged with it, while considering it bad: -the premise is great

• the cinematography is great. The slow panning shot are great
• there is some humor. My favorite scene, is probably the drone lifting the trash bag. And being a running background gag. I might probably watch it again for season 2… hoping it will move somewhere eventually

I’m glad you can do detective work! May be you keep that mindset next time you play cop. May be you’ll get a badge to find , point out and ban the disgusting reddit migrant… seems like something you’ll be happy to do

Interesting question. you want me to write a better show. Unfortunately I feel I’m not gifted enough to do so, plus this is not my job. So if it make you feel better: I would never be able to write Pluribus. But I can still recognize when it is shitty. This is called taste. We can have different one, and that’s okay. I just argue the glaring problem for my taste.

BUT, that being said, If i could change one thing I will never do the 3 episode of Carol flipfloping. Another example of nothing happen: The hive go away (omg!). Then Carol like them(omg!)… then guess what? we’re at square one!!! She hate them again (it is not an arc, it is a circle), but now she has a A-bomb…omg! whaaouh In the meantime, we had to endure an asshole prick carol having some good time… the same way the french had some good time. And we should root against the french, but not against carol?? They are doing the exact SAME thing. Bad writing. We got 3 ep more… but the cost, was having the main displaying a lack of willpower. Yeah she’s back! But no: I cant trust her again. She’s a flipflopper

I think that’s a rule of storytelling. you can trick the audience, but you can no break their trust. We trusted carol to be a bitch to the hive, and 3 ep broke that trust. So yeah she’s back… but…I dont care that much

I think this show could be done in one season, if the writer wanted. And be great. But just for money, he made it a 5 season show. If I recall the dude is super well-known for previous work, so I guess they let him do whatever. And he indulged into pointless narration

You can block me indeed! Please do, we’re wasting each other time. I will happily do the same

Because I created this community, to post every thing I like related to getting better … eg: getting a better kitchen. You can totally block the com if it annoy you. I’m the only one posting on it

|Why is a “no compromise” stance to the point of being unable to do anything or learn anything an inherently redeeming quality

If you remove his non-compromise scenes: you have less than 1 min of him in the show. The whole point of this character is that. Without it , he do NOT exist.

That trait is something that we dont do/see in everyday life. As a viewer it is admirable. This justify how inefficient, and inutile that dude is. He is a total badass in his stubbornness. This is his ONLY character trait. when it is gone, what is left? A dummy who in 6 episode managed to hear noise at the radio… 6 fricking episode!

|She flipped, then flipped back. That’s the point: nobody like flipfloper

at this point the french dude with prostitute, seems more likeable… plus at least he got some interesting info about the hive (stem cell). So when your obviously “evil” character is more effective (knew about human eating) , when he is more efficient than your main… it is bad writing.

|What event was “canceled” by the beginning of the next one? Every event at the end of episode promise a big reveal, is super exciting… and the mountain birth a mole.

1- Grenade explode - > panic -> 5 min later nothing change … one character is in hospital… big deal. 2- Carol drug the hive (great, pro actif, original) -> panic -> nothing change … Ok the Hive go away : this is a non event… removing a character is bad to advance the plot. 3- Carol learn about eating human (great, pro actif, original) -> panic -> she talk to the french -> nothing change 4- nobody do nothing of interest for 2 episode (carol play golf, the spanish dude stupidly go on a suicide journey) -> they meet -> nothing change 5- Carol get in relation with the Hive -> no panic -> nothing change

there is more happening in 1 episode of Stranger Things… they discover a secret, plan something, put their plan in place, contact the person, resolve personal issue, kill something… etc I’m not obsessed with always action… but in Pluribus NOTHING of importance ever happen. Nothing is learn! Nothing is put in place! No plan! No nothing.

Let me bet something: the A bomb (whouaahhh, omg! exciting! ), will absolutely be of no point in next episode. … that the whole emo of this show: exciting stuff -> 0 impact. Like with the grenade, the drug, the human eating… it will be vaguely discussed in a 5 min dialogue, and nothing will change.

The show is wasting time. Which could be kind of okay, if the character were cool to hangout with… So if you enjoy watching asshole flipfloper , or stubborn dummy, you can get some good television. This is not my case, and I would argue that the case of most people watching tv-show, or any medium.

you can indeed hide a sink behind. I wish I could post the link to the company building it, so you can see for yourself. But I am against free advertising.

here come lemmy cop… I wish I could ban people like you to see my post

You’re right. I tend to egoistically post stuff that I feel could be helpful for me .

There must be a better community for this kind of stuff. What shall we call it?

Yeah, it seems I cant change the image, or post an image in comment in this community anymore. I get the same error message every time I try to edit the post. No clue what is happening. It is still showing on my side on various (unloged) browser.
