I’m apparently both the shirtless guy (Gentoo) and the arch user. But I’m also the Kali user and Windows guy occasionally. It probably averages out.

It’d be much easier if they weren’t human.

Oh definitely, it’s not like Lemmy is overflowing with it and I can’t imagine the author is the one posting here. I’m just saying that if you’re sorting by hot or active you increase the odds of seeing content with these spelling mistakes or silly errors by calling it out, so instead of the presumed effect the corrector wanted, i.e. either getting the author to change it, the poster not bother, or having it seen fewer people, it generally has the opposite effect.

Spelling mistakes getting called out increases engagement. I’m not saying it was done on purpose in this instance, but in general it does make sense that you’ll see more posts with spelling mistakes because they’ll rise to the top. The only winning move is not to play.

Usually that’s a wide-brim hat, especially after the last wispy vestiges of your hair cross the rainbow bridge.

I love the strands of spider silk in the last panel.

I’ve had entire dreams in the command line, which was fairly incredible to me at the time because I still couldn’t read the characters consistently, and was only taken aback at the strangeness of such after the fact. I had a sense of what the commands meant and I knew what I was doing (hacking the planet), but while I couldn’t read it I knew what the output felt like. Dreams are weird.

And honestly, my understanding is that the multiplayer games aren’t very social: they’re almost always using ranked but otherwise random matchmaker settings that mean instead of socializing and getting to know people, you meet your single serving friends and then barely ever see them again.

Grandma’s memory isn’t safe for Rust.

My one pair is perfectly molded to my feet at this point, they’re so comfortable.

Plus he regularly abuses stimulants and appears to be in the middle stages of Alzheimer’s: even if he lives another 10 years I doubt he’ll be in office long before he gets sectional 5’d by Vance.

I’m just kind of assuming he’s in mid- to late-stage Alzheimer’s and hopefully won’t last the year, probably getting “Amendment 25, sectional 5’d” by Vance at the earliest opportunity, and I don’t think Vance has enough political will behind him to be a dictator. At least that’s my hope, flimsy as it might be.

What do you mean? The sun gets chased away every night, though I think that gets outsourced to Sköll, a wolf.

Actually, yes we can, and alarmingly easily at this point, even using his general speech patterns (disjointed as they might be). Though I can’t currently do it at my workstation.

I call it asocial media, personally.

Roger Stone’s tattoo, right? Definitely one of the trashiest I’ve seen.

Is the reference frame the CMB? You’d think you could just choose the reference frame at that point and move however you want, but arguing the physics of hypothetical metaphysical beings probably doesn’t make much sense.

I mean, you can still do that with https, your dns requests will likely still be in the clear unless you’re using dns over tls or dns over https.

I would agree with you that something similar to metric would eventually arise, but I would consider duodecimal to make more sense than decimal, as 12 is a superior highly composite number and the terminating representation is much shorter for more commonly used fractions (e.g. 1⁄4 would be represented as 0.3, 1⁄3 as 0.4, 1⁄2 as 0.6, etc). I would also argue that groupings in powers of 12² make more sense than 10³.

I would also argue that it would make more sense for measurements to be based on natural units (such as Planck length) for all the basic measurements (second, metre, kilogram, ampere, kelvin, mole, and candela), such that the anthropic unit (the one you’d most commonly refer to without prefixes) would be some multiple of 12 away from the natural unit.
