Curiosity is far easier to probe in smalltalk and interviews without self awareness filters.English3·2 years agoAsk questions. Either people will or won’t engage but if you have any credibility with them, they have a little bit of buy in to listen to your shit. Then you just might get them curious.

Probably not a good example of something to spark curiosity with, but you never know what will.

My oldest is pretty sucked into her minecraft and roblox shit but when it comes time to get off, it’s “ok dad.” My youngest on the other hand is a child scorned in the same circumstance. I’m just glad I don’t have worse behavioral issues with them.
CascadianBeam@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•As we witness the recent mass exodus from Reddit to Lemmy - Whoever named this Platform after Lemmings, must have had a freaking good foresight.52·2 years agoI thought it was because Reddit is like “read it” and Lemmy is like “Lemmy show you this”. Lemmings is a great name though.
CascadianBeam@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•very Reddit way of dealing with ending awards and coins.English12·2 years agoI’ve read comments by people saying they enjoy the feeling it gives other people when they give gold. Of course, the person I’m thinking of was long before all the fuckery with the expanse of awards.

CascadianBeam@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Elon Musk says Twitter's cash flow still negative as ad revenue drops 50%English5·2 years agoCutting costs by 3 billion certainly wasn’t going to turn Twitter sustainable.
