There is no way this could go down that would not immediately get turned into either a new theory or used as evidence of a theory already in existence.
Maybe it would be a space where users can straight up post pictures and move them around in a large space. Not pixel by pixel, but a whole image at a time, in a space big enough to fit thousands of pictures.
Maybe it would be a collection of symbols and flags where users add a dot below what they identify with.
Maybe it would be a shared drawing canvas, where users can do freehand lines, outlines, and fill with colors like MS Paint, but all at once and over each other. Basically an internet graffiti wall. To align with the ideas of Lemmy, it would be possible to "wall off" off bits of the greater canvas, and block the rest of the users so that only one community/magazine /server can draw on that space, while any unclaimed area stays wide open for anyone.
Maybe it would not exist at all, because the whole mentality of the Fediverse might not support enough collective expression.
Ah, so I can change the taste of the food with spices and substitute lookalike drink that tastes bad, but I cannot add medication, anything inedible, or anything that I know would affect their health (like peanuts if I know the theif is allergic).
I am now even more interested in seeing this movie. That's the exact impression I got from the trailer, that they managed to really dive into the world of Barbie and make an unforced narrative that makes sense for that world in a very aware way.

Agreed. The tribe mindset on display shows me how users who love reddit as it is are not a good fit for the Fediverse. Maybe less advertising to that crowd is a good thing.
Signal with 2 people who actually moved there with me, standard messages app that came with Samsung for most people, and Facebook Messenger Lite for anything that works better there, or contacting people who I'm not close enough with to get their phone number.
I see "but it does gps!" As an excuse in favor of the oversized screens. But a heads up display, reading aloud turn by turn directions, or even a set of lights to indicate where you should go would do the same thing better
And I'd like to have a word with them... About how good their idea is!
That's a great start. I am dreaming of some kind of a full dashboard and center console replacement. While I'm at it, I may as well dream of having the money to afford a car that would be new enough to need such an upgrade plus be able to afford the upgrade itself.
I think the driver should definitely have radio controls, just not through a touch screen. Passenger touch screens should be for their entertainment and their own heating/cooling settings. I think the passenger controls should have nothing to do with the way the car drives and handles, or headlights, wipers, anything like that.
My opinion is that touch screens should be for passengers only. Display screens are fine, but if physical buttons are so unacceptable, then we need voice control that actually works.
Also, I'm surprised no one has started a company to retrofit buttons and switches into modern cars. Whatever kind of headache that would be to design and install, I'd like to see it work.
same. Pick coordinates and what to say. I've seen Kbin.com and lemm.ee suggested as short and to the point banners that could be more doable in the chaos of r/place
Ha, good luck with that, Reddit.
There is no way this could go down that would not immediately get turned into either a new theory or used as evidence of a theory already in existence.
Hmm, probably so. Another reason not to have a giant collective art project yet.
I think it would be wildly different.

It starts like that and then the people running scripts and other power players take over
And widely known. Once it's started, most people know what you're going for.
I think this is a good thing. This place is a gem that is hard to find and not fitting for everyone.

Adding to this, Devolution by Max Brooks. Book only
I also like earth based hard sci-fi with some mystery and horror. This book hits all three points, and is very character driven on top of that.

Not interested in learning
Complains constantly
Wants things for free
Doesn't deserve your help in this area.

If there can be a consensus between switching to lemm.ee or Kbin, I'd love to lend my pixel to either of those.
Oh man, so many awesomely awful jokes came in this format. Best source of dad jokes around, I miss that meme
