Inner doors should swing inward because in case of a fire or other emergency, you don’t want to be trapped inside by something blocking the door that you cannot deal with. Even in something were preventing it from swinging open (like a rope or whatever), in theory the person could still get out because the door hinge would be located on their side and they could simply remove it.

10,000 in my currency (yen) is only like 68 USD, so no. Even 10k USD seems a little low, probably not worth the effort in the end.

OP said you have to change something, not describe the world like it is

Personally I’d suggest switching servers then, you’ll still get all the content anyways. I started out on lemmy.world, but moved over to kbin.social and haven’t had any issues after that

I agree a lot with what Orwell said in he’s book, but actually I think Huxley hit a little closer to home on this point. I’m sure you’ve seen this before, yeah?

Agreed. I had to unsubscribe from a lot of them when I realized it was becoming my “daily two minutes of hate”

Ok, then why isn’t it on youku or bilibil or wechat or telegram or whatever the fuck the russians use? There’s only two options here:

1. That there is a global conspiracy where Putin, Xi Jinping, Kovind, Bolsonaro and everyone else ALL got together and agreed to absolutely never dunk on the US even once

2. You’re batshit insane

Pick one

Are there any relevant projects or ideas that already exist?

Yes there is, it’s called a business card. It’s opt in, has all your relevant information, and best bit, no phones or proprietary software required.

What I’m trying to do is select eight of the most iconic films of all time, across these genres:

Science Fiction

The only answer then is the original “Star Wars: A New Hope” poster

Kbin’s UI is just better. I realize both can be customized, but I’d prefer not to mess around with any of that yet. Plus I know people on mastadon, so that sealed it for me.

Well, the site’s mascot is an alien, so …

Instead what they’ll get is a metric shitton of bots trying to game the system, further tanking the site

That’s actually an excellent point, but it has the chance to backfire spectacularly if they can’t IPO or come up with a more higher earning replacement before the end of the next fiscal year. So I totally expect them to fuck it up

In the short term, yes. And in the context of them trying for an IPO, that’s probably what they want. But it absolutely will kill the site in the end because no one actually wants to hang out in an ad riddled wasteland.

because bots will shitpost for pennies

The site will literally be run over with chatgpt bots farming for pennies overnight.
