The thing is, driving a forklift is actually fun, with the steering at the back and levers to move the forks etc, so I can imagine competing with them would be great … maybe the watching isn’t so compelling though

He gets found out when, after an emergency where he uses a forklift to save a puppy, instead of embracing the puppy in a manly manner he tries to sneak away to keep his identity secret

For anyone who wants to get in training, GTA5 has working forklifts and pallets ;-)

I’m not even mad, that’s impressive!

After passing my certification with ease, my instructor pointed out that women generally make better forklift drivers … so, this would make sense in an animé about the cut-and-thrust world of competitive forklift driving … which is also a thing BTW.

Yeah, that was just what the organisers called it I guess.

I’m aware of that now, but at the time didn’t know anything about it … it was being done in a community space where there was a bar and plenty of space for activities.

A friend of a friend once talked me into going to a munch, where some scenes were going to be done. I’m interested in seeing new things and try to be open to having my horizons broadened, so I figured why not?

I have to say, not only did I find it intensely boring, it was also about as much of a turn-off as I can imagine any in-person experience being.

They did do a beginner’s guide to Mastodon after Musk infested Twitter, but it does seem like they don’t consider Lemmy or Mastodon to be “serious”

Cool, thanks :-)

Do you know if Retroarch has controller support?

I love radio control trucks, but not for competition or to go fast. I like taking them for a walk like one might walk a dog … it’s just fun and a bit silly.

I went and did a search, looking for cute tanks and I have to say there’s a lot of good choices which come down to personal preference, the Luchs included.

Of course, this isn’t including Tankettes, which are almost all incredibly cute.

I have to admit, that is easily the cutest tank I’ve ever seen!

(I’ve seen Girls Und Panzer, and read everything Tank Girl, so I’m an expert!)

It is a lisp, albeit on purpose … to further confuse things in parts of Spain with different languages the shared words don’t necessarily have that lisp!

Best thing would be to go to a Spanish speaking country for a holiday, once you’ve been forced to use it on strangers you’ll loose your language anxiety and it gets much easier (I live in Spain and work in Spanish, I’m not very good, but also no longer worried about muddling through).

When was that? Last time I tried it was a couple of years ago.

As for the difference, outside of Spain the conjugation of Vosotros (you, plural) isn’t used, but speaking to strangers is much more formal. Also, there’s a lot of vocabulary differences which can be confusing for non-native speakers.

Good luck with your learning, it’s a great language :-)

Last time I looked it still did a weird mix of American and European Spanish, too

Suddenly the Broccoloid episode of The Powerpuff Girls reads as anti-LGBT propaganda

Indeed I can, just not well.
