Science@beehaw.org•Shattering the myth of men as hunters and women as gatherers
12·3 years agoInteresting. My source is obviously anecdotal and from another country. Is it verified that Buffalo tribes always thought this vs. being influenced by European colonisers?
(I don’t want to fall into the trap of thinking older civilizations didn’t have the same gender hang-ups as modern ones.)

38·3 years agoI heard from an Aboriginal tour guide that in native populations everyone just did the role they wanted / were good at, and it was only from the introduction of Christian missionaries that such a division of labour was encouraged.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is a good old school mp3/flac player I can simply drag and drop files into and be on my way?
4·3 years agoI bought a cheap ‘mp3 player’ from eBay when I was trying to use my phone less, but it was rubbish: no library function (just the files, listed in the order they were copied), m4a support was limited to low-complexity), Bluetooth dropped if I moved my head.
I was surprised, because there’s definitely system-on-a-chip + open-source software combinations that would make a good, cheap player. The kind of places that make them though, will always prefer to use even-cheaper components than what the final retail price would suggest.
So, because everyone uses their phone for music listening now, it’s hard to get a dumb player. They’re either rubbish, like I bought, or they’re completely at the other end of the scale (as in more expensive than a phone)

Movies and TV Shows@lemmy.film•Barbie Is About as Good as a Barbie Movie Could Ever Be
5·3 years agoOh cool. Never had a doubt of course. Off to Narnia next apparently (which means I’ll have to wait even longer for my imagined Gerwig Star Wars, unfortunately).

Movies and TV Shows@lemmy.film•Barbie Is About as Good as a Barbie Movie Could Ever Be
271·3 years agoI like the idea that these reviewers all had the concept for a perfect Barbie movie, and are then criticising this one for not living up to it.
I think that - like most people - when I heard that Gerwig was making a movie out of Barbie, I thought: how the hell is she going to do that?

Science Fiction@lemmy.world•Foundation - Season 2 Episode 1 Discussion (Spoilers)
6·3 years agoJust watched ep 1. Think I’ll continue in the same way I watched season 1: admiring how good it looks, but finding it frustrating.
As an example: as welcome as a naked Lee Pace fight scene is, it didn’t really establish how many assassins there were / what they were doing at any given moment.
Was good to see Holt McCallney (from Mindhunter), show up though.
I think this is the issue - if the community itself isn’t tagged, blocking NSFW on your account doesn’t filter the posts (although they should be blurry if the posts themselves are tagged).
Fortunately, most of the untagged communities (inc. celebs) are modded by a user called Madness, so blocking him cleared up my feed.
From a brief look at their public API, it only seems to users to GET stuff, and not POST stuff yet, so that would limit the possibility of apps.

Movies and TV Shows@lemmy.film•Ron Perlman on writer strike: We know who said thatEnglish
2·3 years agoOnly that Perlman is saying “we all know who it is”, which suggests there aren’t other candidates up for debate as for who it could be.
During previous strikes, I think it was relatively small groups of men who actually got the negotiating done on the AMPTP’s behalf, rather than the AMPTP itself. Iger was a part of those groups in the past, so maybe that’s another reason.

Movies and TV Shows@lemmy.film•Ron Perlman on writer strike: We know who said thatEnglish
9·3 years agoPerlman specifically mentions $27 million, and it’s known that Iger’s deal with Disney was for $54 over over 2 years. Maybe he’s not the only CEO earning that, but he’s the one that most people would associate with that figure.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•should we be worried about powers-moderators/users?English
20·3 years agoRight now there are people who sign up with an instance like lemmy.world, who then create loads of communities, because they don’t fully understand the nature of things and can’t quite believe that the URLs for lots of different IPs are available. For Reddit, if you snagged the likes of r/starwars early on, that gave you some power. For Lemmy, it’s meaningless: if you just want to moderate 100 communities, and not spend time actually building a Community up, then you’ll just be overtaken by the Community at one of the many other instances.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Which is the most satisfying IO connector system, in your opinion?
2·3 years agoIt’s probably whatever my phone charger uses (USB C probably), but that’s mostly because I’m associating the little buzz my phone does when it starts charging with the connection. So yeah, purely fetishistic.

Movies and TV Shows@lemmy.film•New community - watch movies on YTEnglish
5·3 years agoYour link goes to “https://lemm.ee/c/fullmoviesonyoutube” Anyone with an account on lemm.ee can use that link to subscribe to community, etc
I have an account on feddit.nl, so for me, I need to visit “https://feddit.nl/c/fullmoviesonyoutube@lemm.ee” (i.e. my instance’s version of that community, with all the same data) in order to subscribe, post comments, etc.
There’s 2 ways to create links that’ll work for anyone: (up to you which you prefer, but V1 works better in apps, I think)
Version One: [Full Movies](/c/fullmoviesonyoutube@lemm.ee)
Version Two: !fullmoviesonyoutube@lemm.ee

Mysteriously, this isn’t currently playing via the standard web page on lemmy.world. But it does when viewed from other instances/frontends/apps, so I don’t understand.
