Kaizo Mario would be some of the fanmakes like World of Stupidity. This rabbit hole goes way too deep. I am one of the best MF players in the world, and have been unable to complete one level to this day, which nobody else has either. One day I want to.


Counter-Strike: aim accuracy and incredible keyboard-mouse hands eye coordination. Also, being able to grind and mental simulations of possibilities to be ready against them. It is like chess but with consequences.

Need For Speed: Most Wanted, Carbon, Underground and Underground 2 require you to use manual gears if you want to improve. Also, those titles involve a lot of manual car equipment tuning. The precision required on keyboard is almost equivalent to the combined precision you would need for Counter-Strike with both keyboard and mouse.

Pocket Tanks: incredible amount of guesstimation with projectile classical physics, and being creative with the use of weaponry. To make it harder, I always play against CPU-10 with always selecting “Random” weapons to learn to make the most of what I have.

Mario Forever community fanmakes: Yes, that Mario Forever game from 2005 has a giant community. The community exists across USA, Canada, Europe, Russia, China, Vietnam, South America and elsewhere. Some of the fanmakes have levels and battles against Bowser that can last 20-30 minutes with no mistakes allowed. BLOODY FUCKING HARD. Go through the community forum via this, to dive down this deep rabbit hole: https://download.marioforever.net/mf-games-en.html If you think Mario is easy, check this out https://youtube.com/watch?v=Oqv2JBGi4EA or https://youtube.com/watch?v=lpphf_gsYaQ or https://youtube.com/watch?v=P6ZIBZtOT30


Buy a good mechanical pencil and coloured and black leads made by Pentel, Ain Stein model, or Uni’s equivalent. You need not sink money when you get the colour variety with leads.



Approach any woman. Toxic feminism and selective acceptance of “patriarchal” elements and roles by women makes me keep distance. As a cis het man, I am scared of false accusations, especially since I am an INTJ introvert.

Women should learn to take the first step and approach men for dates, and become humble as a gender group, if they want to have the power. Not doing so only means that they want exclusively the benefits of “patriarchal gender roles” without dealing with negatives.


I do access Reddit actively, because some communities have no replacement, even though I personally tried to get some of them to migrate. I check it mainly for communities like r/headphones, r/VPNTorrents, r/mechanicalpencils, r/victorinox, r/emulation, r/india (my country).

However, my Reddit access time is about 1/3rd of Lemmy, which is insane to think of. The reason is that I extract value out of platforms extremely efficiently, to lessen my dependence on them permanently.


Sync did not do shit. Us OGs made this platform free of right wingers, 4channers, prevented raids, worked on sign up systems, and so on. Lemmy is also lean to self host and run.

I am not a developer, but I can count on hand 5-10 people besides me, that were not admins, that help in various ways like stopping trolls and raids, moderation, advising on every single thing that is wrong with Lemmy, and so on.

The biggest problem with every single reddit alternative to date, apart from Lemmy, has been the “freezepeach” trope aggregating the same kinds of dogshit extremist users nobody wants to interact with. This is why I never adopted any alternative platform before this, and this is why I was sent by someone to support Lemmy 3 years ago. Bunch of us made Lemmy what it is today. I am proud of it.


Anglosphere will pay indirect reparations in the form of dependence on BRICS+, since the latter holds most of the money, natural resources and manufacturing capabilities. They will not be sucked dry in one jab, but rather it will be a death by a thousand small cuts for the empire.


Said the Anglo supremacist who has benefitted actively from generations of looting and genocide committed upon rest of the world. BRICS+ is announcing payback time for a few millenia, do not worry. We shall see a change in the tune of your ilk within a decade, when your ilk no longer will say “both sides bad”.


Glad to see someone knows about Dunbar’s number (BTW its 148).



Old HP LaserJets like 1000 series (XP/2000 era drivers) are absolute behemoths. Still have and use one since 10-15 years.



WhatsApp made a E2EE messenger app (based on XMPP like everything else) the fastest that was reliable, way before Facebook bought it around 2014. Even with FB’s acquisition, things largely remained unchanged and the Stories addition was incredibly well received. It is not as intrusive and addictive as Telegram, nor as dramatic as Facebook, and is more secure than Telegram, Hike, Viber, and its numerous competitors over the years (while being almost similarly less private).



I am speechless, astounded, astonished and flabbergasted all at the same time. You need to be in a museum.

Imagine believing a system that prioritises individual accumulation is better at mass allocation of resources than a system that actually scientifically and politically is built for mass allocation of resources. Such is the state of a westerner.


Some homeopaths solve problems that allopathic doctors are unable to. Still it may be a placebo thing, but it is a valid option because it can work, and it is less quacky than quacks.




What are easy to present criticisms of mainstream outlets like BBC and CNN?
While it is easy to use phrases like "use critical thinking", this is not easy for elders or cousins in families to be told, as this is not lucid to understand in a snap. It is essential for criticism to be easily communicable to ordinary people that watch Google Feed or MSN News daily, and I feel that such criticism is not even easy to access or read, considering ordinary people have been cornered from MSM, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and rest of Big Tech and Western media apparatus. If you love your BBC and CNN feeds, avoid this post, this is not for you.

https://lemmy.ml/post/69064 They did it before too. Admins? Mods? [@dessalines@lemmy.ml](https://lemmy.ml/u/dessalines) [@nutomic@lemmy.ml](https://lemmy.ml/u/nutomic) [@AgreeableLandscape@lemmy.ml](https://lemmy.ml/u/AgreeableLandscape)

The heck is this nonsense? Instance admins please take note of this attempt to mislead the community members. [@nutomic@lemmy.ml](https://lemmy.ml/u/nutomic) [@dessalines@lemmy.ml](https://lemmy.ml/u/dessalines) [@AgreeableLandscape@lemmy.ml](https://lemmy.ml/u/AgreeableLandscape) Also I made the post discussing soferman's month long comment and post history, if anyone wants to read and discuss it https://lemmy.ml/post/69058

How should admins, mods and users deal with sockpuppet harassers and downvoters?
I assisted admins, caught and got banned over the past week a user noobda, who created accounts noobde, noobdaREBRN and now noobrao. A few hours later now, I see 3-4 downvotes on every single comment of mine in the past week, and have gotten repeated death threats in PMs, likely by this very person. Is an IP address or IP range ban a good solution, that admins should consider implementing besides report option? I feel incredibly harassed here at Lemmy, though nothing common, where reddit users have abuse reported me to seek suicide prevention helpline, among many things.

Why are typical pseudo intellectuals, xenophobes and racist trolls leaking into Lemmy recently?
They are not only shitposting but also mass brigading, running down discussions to the ground.
