A Japanese boy noticed his butterflies seemed to recognize him. He spent two years making an experiment and proved that metamorphosis does not remove memories made during the caterpillar stage. (lemmy.world)

If I set my standards higher I would definitely not be on lemmy. As shit as reddits leadership is and the amount of ads, and all the other problems, the content is much better than here.

Like no comparison. Even soccer, a sport with a billion fans, doesn't have a decent community here. Let alone formula1, woodworking, chess and a number of other hobbies. Thank God I like Linux, at least that is active. But not even a ThinkPad community, and I'm sure half of the people here are on thinkpads...

If you like soccer so much, why are you moving the goalposts? We're talking about garbage posts like this here

[–] Tja@programming.dev 0 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I like this garbage post better than "nothing". Because there is a lack of content.

PS: There are no goalposts in soccer, which you maybe would know if there was enough soccer content on lemmy

I have a sneaking suspicion that this is your bot.

I am willing to pretend I didn't see this if you want to quickly Google that and subsquently come up with a new insult.

You're right to question my bot. That was a genius idea!

We really need more soccer content on lemmy, people out here really think soccer is about goalposts...

The irony of turning this into an argument about whether goal posts exist in soccer is really, really funny

You're free to start a soccer community and make those goal posts :)
