Like so, it would make scrolling through posts more cohesive and it would be easier to skim.
Hey all,
I'm learning Lua and come from a Java background, and have been diving deep into Lua "classes".
Realizing that a Lua "class" is just some clever syntactic sugar, and lacks encapsulation, I've found that closures can act like a Java class and protect it's state. An added bonus is my muscle memory won't struggle with : vs . for function calls, a pitfall I've already wasted time debugging.
I'm new to all this though, is there anything I'm missing? Is a Lua "class" with self and : a better choice than using a closure like a class?
(by wierd, I mean strange for reddit) Namely science uncensored and couples memes. Couples memes fell of really quickly, probably because most folks are single I suppose and had no stomach to see happy couples.
Then there is science uncensored, which sounds like a muskian "free speech" attempt.
Also am I ugly, and true rate me got popular really quickly.
I noticed this about a month ago, before the protests? I'm no internet historian so I may be off (also a stoner, so there is that), and I'm not combing through reddit to fact check myself so correct me if I've caught the stupid. I've been using reddit for about 4 or so years and I've never seen so many new subs get so popular in such a short amount of time.

Part of me feels like reddit is about to become a propaganda machine. Maybe the couples meme sub was an attempt at encouraging people to procreate. "Wow look at those happy couples I want that!", was probably the intended effect.
Science uncensored speaks for itself, sure reddit was left leaning, but every once and a while an article would hit the front page that challenged the status quo of the left (my reference is a post about weed not being so amazing, see above comment about me not being an internet historian), so I don't think there was a dire need for a science sub without "political censorship".
True rate me and am I ugly are PG thirst traps. Lonely nerds love to comment on women, white night, degrade, its easy bait (my apologies if you're a lonely nerd). All of the posts from these subs that hit the front page had attractive women, I never read the comments, I don't need to read the comments. Maybe the comments were wonderful, but hey I was raised by the internet so I think I'm right here.
Anyways, before I take of my foil cap. I really think there is some weird corporate propagandizing going on. Between twitter and reddit, I think there is a concerted attempt to control information online.
Or maybe this is all an attempt to kill net neutrality, from the inside.

I never posted often on reddit because folks are mean there, or stupid, or both. I'm hoping for a different experience on lemmy.
I know my ideas are silly, but silly things make life fun.
Won't you be silly with me darling?
True love is actually a great wish. Money runs out, the earth doesn't have the resources to power an x-wing, super dude can't do anything super or else society will now expect him to be Superman, which is a huge responsibility anyone reasonable would want. But TRUE LOVE, the fucking stuff from Disney movies? I'd take that in a heartbeat, then proceed to do a lewd photoshoot with my partner on the defunct x-wing.
