I don’t recall. Interesting question.
I think the article’s connection to some of the aspects of the source material is relevant as well. As long as the conversation stays civil, I don’t see a problem with its inclusion in this community.
Thanks for sharing. Hope and despair are a choice. One that can be drastically easier to make based on the environment in which they live. Those of us who can more easily choose hope can also offer it to those in need of it through our words and actions. LotR may have been Tolkien trying to create hope for himself. In doing so, he created a work that can also offer hope to others in dark times.
Thanks for sharing that! And a private Piped video at that. You get a 🫡 .
I understand your comment but it is just a hypothetical question sans need. :)
There are reputable studies out there that can answer your question.
Good point. Well-maintained ‘02 Honda CR-V here with 186k miles. I bike to work when weather and climate conditions allow which is most days May–November where I live. We got a second hand Tesla last year because my wife commutes a lot for work. With the latest news, I may try and hold onto the CR-V for even longer than next 2–3 years.
If it works for someone’s specific case than this is most certainly the way. 👊🏻
If presented with a binary choice between minimizing carbon footprint with privacy-evasive EV or sticking with more polluting ICE vehicle and keeping privacy, what would you choose? Which choice is more ethically sound? What is more important between mitigating human-caused climate change or preserving individual human privacy? 🤔
I agree that this does not qualify as a related post to this community. I’ll let the poster have 24 hours or so to delete it before it gets removed.
Thanks for sharing. Very thoughtfully written and an interesting read. 👍🏻
I understand your perspective and mostly share it. As I said in my post, I would have been happy to have had a deleted scene as I can appreciate how it might not fit the narrative arc of the final film. I also appreciate what was in the extended edition.
In fairness, I’m a big fan of the movies and think they are a solid adaptation. I’m glad they exist as many adaptations never even get close to that level of quality.
Yup. I still wished we lived in a universe where the ‘Scouring of the Shire’ was at least filmed as a deleted scene. It’s an important book end to the Fellowship Hobbits’ arcs.
Thanks! I hope to see something like it come to Voyager. I understand it isn’t mission critical, but I do think the presentation in the 2nd screenshot is an elegant way to show the community icon, banner and top-level information.
I don’t think it’s a bug, but just that community banners don’t appear anywhere within the app that I can tell. An example of a community sidebar that I moderate in Voyager is below.
Another example of the same community’s sidebar on Mlem is below. Make sense now? The community is here, https://lemmy.world/c/tolkien.
I see Rings of Power the same way as I do the Star Wars sequel trilogy in that it has some good parts, but it is ultimately mediocre and I’ll likely never watch it a second time. Outside of dwarves, I found it to be rather underwhelming. With that said, I can appreciate the effort many out into it although I found it to be ultimately rather meh.
Lol! Same here. Solid strategy that works.
I was finally able to sign in with Lemmy.world account. Will look forward to progress with app and will happily donate once moderator tools are added. Hopefully community banner display can also be incorporated into the app. 🙏🏻 Kudos for work so far!
Try it now. It should work.
