Ancient Internet - What the Internet was like in ancient times
Thousands of years ago, the internet was invented. We document its ancient history here. ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/fa4c9155-9727-4541-8df2-1850c927571e.png) https://lemmy.world/c/ancientinternet [email protected]

I was thinking more about the consistency of light levels being something more important to people with ADHD.


I guess that’s if what I was wondering, if consistent light level in terms of daily comfort is the issue here.


Does being in the dark help people with ADHD? My daughter has ADHD, but she hates being in the dark. She even sleeps with a ton of LED lights on all over her room. Is that sort of the same thing even though it’s light rather than dark? A neurodivergent way to be more comfortable?



I honestly don’t know if Daystrom would do all that well on Lemmy. You need hardcore fans who are willing and able to come up with a plausible explanation for the most ridiculous things in Star Trek and that just doesn’t seem to be a thing here.

Which is fine with me, I don’t need that to talk about Star Trek. I’m happy saying “I guess the writers didn’t think about that.”

Daystrom, at least for me, was fun to occasionally dip a toe in, but it was way too stuffy to stay there for any real length of time.

Anyway, to change the subject, I’m another mod on c/StarTrek and I would like to invite you to all come by and check us out. I promise, we keep the salt vampire in the brig and I’m sure there won’t be any sort of unforeseen power failures…


Cool. I’ve been watching the old Thin Man movies. When I get through them all, I’ll look into making a thread.


Right, but you also need the whole “we were saved by Jesus” or “we were God’s chosen people” or whatever from the various religions. You have to maintain that by saying there may be aliens, but we’re the ones that God favors.


Surprisingly, I can’t find that made as an actual usable font. I would have thought someone in font design would jump at the chance just for the fun of it.



I think a lot of religious people will reason it this way- “Yes, there are aliens, but God chose us.


I don’t know, porn is different to me than in a real movie. I feel uncomfortable when it’s a real movie like OP. I’m not sure why it’s different, but it is.


I guess it’s fair that you’re not hyping your big movie with the strike going on… that said, I’m tired of you being in everything all the time. Give some other lady a chance!


I’ve always probably overshared about my life online and you could probably figure out who I am with enough detective work, but I don’t think I’ve ever associated my name with anything on social media except Facebook, where everyone I communicate with already knows me on at least some personal level. But I agree, it seems like a lot more people are comfortable with exposing who they are online. I go to a public fan forum where people are regularly showing full face photos of themselves in T-shirts for the fandom and such. It floors me. Anyone can find that in a Google search. It isn’t private at all.


Like those are a real thing.


My phone has a wallet case, so it’s all on one thing. It all goes in my left front pocket.


I just didn’t even know there was such a thing as a coffee spoon!


Wait, you have a coffee spoon and a tea spoon? Fair enough, you’re not a monster, you’re just weirdly anal about spoons. I’m not criticizing. I’m being weirdly anal about silverware placement.


Also, big spoons, then little spoons. Not together in the same slot, you monsters!


Yep, I’m usually not a moderator, but occasionally if they are being asked for and the community I’m part of is turning to shit, I’ll step up.


(NOT THE MOVIE ZEITGEIST)

I totally did a nonononoyes. Good luck with your community.



May I suggest doing an informal poll of some sort to boost engagement? I’m not that familiar with XCOM, but it’s a pretty big series with a lot of games, right? Maybe just a simple “which is your favorite XCOM game?” thread.


I’m not saying it’s because of beans, but it’s probably because of beans.


I certainly fit the bill at 46 and in a tech-related job (although I’m on a Mac, in part because my job is on the design end).

And I’m good with that. I hated getting into it with someone on Reddit and realizing I was arguing with a child. I felt like such a fool.


Or is it beef broth? In which case, I do not recommend biting a cow.


You have been kicked from #Lemmy.


Oh god, the Eternal September when 90% of Usenet was people replying “me too!” to a post that said “me too!” in response to a post that said “me too!” which referenced the previous post that said “me too!”


They are often interlinked and you can have both, many people do. The best thing to do is to get evaluated for it.
