They sort of did.

“Spock’s Brain” has been memed as the worst episode ever, one of the ones we pretend doesn’t exist.

My hot take is that it’s not actually that bad. It’s not a top tier episode, but it’s perfectly serviceable. The worst actual thing in the episode is the sound effect used for the medical device to keep brainless Spock alive. I’ll grant that. Otherwise, the central conflict is average Trek stuff. The scene where McCoy gets an ancient medical database downloaded into his brain is actually really neat.

I am convinced the legacy of an especially bad reputation of this episode is because it appeared on a few “Worst Episode” lists because of the personal taste of the authors and very few people actually watch TOS for themselves, but instead absorb it through articles. So it just became accepted that the episode was outlandishly bad.

Batman is unstoppably determined. That’s one of his traits. What other explanation are you looking for about how he powered through getting stabbed beyond that he just willed himself to keep going?

Of course, the standard joke answer is that he’s the Batman (so he can take it when others can’t).

What about this is a joke answer?

As a concept the idea of allowing total autonomy seems sound.

Implementing it as a practice where the government assists could see some perverse incentives to get people to kill themselves. Here’s a real example

If the system can safeguard against these, perhaps, but it isn’t a one and done safeguard but constant vigilance. Allowing others to put down people raises even more need for scrutiny.

This one isn’t stupid, it’s incoherent. If you’re going to make up terms, it helps to define them for the rest of us. Otherwise any answer you get will be people scratching their heads and giving a guess, but who knows if it’s actually answering the question or not.

So you’ve made up a term and asked us what it means?

so technically, while not true, could it be considered “the last war of humanity”?

(???)

Did you hear this term somewhere or did you come up with it yourself?

Because if you came up with the term, I think it’s on you to explain to us what it means.

Nope. 1,200 seconds for popcorn. No more, no less.

I’ve presented you with the proof that early Reddit was populated with large numbers of sockpuppet accounts by the owners, creating whole cloth communities to draw in users, which is not something that is happening on Lemmy.

The entire reason the Digg mass exodus was viable was people leaving Digg found these “preexisting” Reddit communities and felt more comfortable joining in.

Lemmy doesn’t have that socketpuppet population to springboard with, so growth is slower and unpopulated communities are not falsely full of fake users.

Shenanigans.

Yes Lemmy is smaller and doesn’t have instantly fully formed communities. Reddit has been around for almost 2 decades. Lemmy is newer, smaller, and actively fights the sorts of shenanigans that Reddit initially used to get big.

If you want more niche activity, make posts and interact with posts. Lemmy is user driven- that means you. It isn’t a giant megasite where you can just expect to be a passive receiver of endless content.

I have a big sprawling scifi universe I draw pictures of. There is a lot of lore in my head for it that I really am going to write down and present now that there are so many visuals.
