Thank you for being careful.

Oh influencers. Haven’t thought of those, that fits i guess.

The tax criminals / profiteurs of tax criminality driving their loud fancy sports cars through the andorran valleys and up to the golf courts.

Andorra. Full of motor bozos, duty free shops, terrible cities in the valleys. A tax haven joke country. Nice mountains i guess.

France is beautiful, i’m always coming back.

Terrible, not a real city, like the other person said, feels more like a theme park for tourists. Already did 20 years ago, last time i’ve been, never going back.

Same for me, with a bicycle and tent. Camp sites are also ok priced, at least for cyclists. Very much enjoy cycling in switzerland, i also think people are friendly. I used to have different experiences but those were just single persons / crazy people or something.

You want me to ask why she feels that way about the ad? She already said why, i’m good thanks, not following this topic any longer.

I should not have replied to her but kept to myself.

I don’t care about the ad, never was a gamer, just stumbled in here via all.

When i saw this ad, all i thought was ecstasy, rave and playstation. Not “women are sluts” or anything like it. If i didn’t get the reference, i probably would think the same about the ad as her. I don’t think she got the reference, not after her initial comment.

Tongue out with ecstasy on is something you would see at raves. The eyes up is odd i give you that, that’s made to look submissive, and sure there are sexual connotations, advertisers are clever.

But raves were also not some sterile asexual gatherings either. I don’t know.

Oh, she’s trashy? Why? Please don’t tell us you did not get whooshed by the ad now.

Bought one about two weeks ago. Usually i like having a paper map on my cycling trips, but on long ones it’s getting too many maps, so i didn’t bring any. Then i met some italians with a map and next day i bought one myself. I think it’s much better to see where you are at and how you move than on a phone.

Also kinda like the “scenic routes” marker in the michelin maps (although that’s also on their online maps). It was a midi pyrenees map, but i have already ridden out of it, going to send it home.

Love summer. Love all the seasons, but would be nice if summer was one, two months longer and winter shorter.

I went to sleep being all drunk. I turned on a light switch and to my surprise i found myself in the staircase of the building i lived in, wearing underpants only, the door to my appartment was closed. I must have taken the wrong way after going to the toilet.

Tried to do the credit card trick to open doors with some paper i found at the letter boxes. No success.

I then went onto the street, there was a party crowd finishing their party, they were all hyped to meet me and thought it was really funny. Nobody of them was able to do the credit card trick though. They then called a key service for me, who then opened the door and i got back to bed.

Oh thank you :)

So i assume, if the instance admin wozld not intervene, these kind os posts would just be stickied forever, right?

Shouldn’t you be taking pictures of birds though, haha.

Just wanted to say that i am really thankful that you at lemmy.world had open doors when others couldn’t cope with the signups last summer, and i was also very happy being on lemmy.world, i always had the impression that you want the best for your users. But i am also irritated by the animosity towards the lemmy devs, and after seeing that f.e. sunaurus apparently is able to have a constructive relation with them, the behaviour or claims of some of the world team seems really odd to me. I have no knowledge about what’s going on at admin / dev level, i am just a user, so i can only go with what i can read here on lemmy.

Thank you again for all that you guys did!

If people are really angry at their instance i’d guess they would like to delete their account, not keep it around. But yeah probably more an emotional than a rational thing, still a thing though.

I definitely noticed you changing instances all the time :) I personally would rather have a home base that i’m happy with and not change all the time.

I reckon it’s less people not understanding, and more not to want to give up their account history.

I am also feeling a bit uneasy with how the world team seems to throw their weight against the lemmy devs. I don’t know any deeper reasoning other than what was discussed openly on lemmy, so who knows if it may be rewarded.

Seeing sunaurus chime in on the supposedly toxic development environment etc. made me feel a lot more sympathetic to the lemmy devs and gave me a different view other than (some of) .world’s obvious animosity. The discussion between the beehaw guys and the lemmy devs only reinforced that tbh, although of course here i also might have not all the knowledge to come to a fair conclusion.

All in all i found sunaurus to be the most transparent and sober in his takes, i will take SorteKanin’s advice and start using my lemm.ee account more now.

What was that all about, i saw it mentioned before but have no idea what happened?

Are you talking about the current release then, 0.19.3?
