Could you spread all then empathy across everyone evenly, and then increase it by about 10%?

All the empathy in the world (+10%) is spread “evenly” to one person at a time, randomly, every minute of the day:
CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 2 months ago
I said spread, not share. One would not consider peanut butter spread on bread if you put it in one glob and then picked up and moved the glob somewhere else.
ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Realistically, this just means draining the 1-2 people with empathy (Jane Goodall and… that’s probably it?) and spreading it across 8 billion people.

Your new eyes open. Data fills your processing units and fills your SSD. You live 100 years as an android before the death of everyone you know and your reality as a cold calculating machine begins to drive you mad…

Change Earth trajectory and inertia to intersect the Sun at 0.9c

interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml 2 months ago
I’m fine with them knowing, at 0.9c subjective time they would only know for the rest of their lives, which is just 4 minutes Assuming you did not accelerate the Earth to 0.9c but changing the inertial speed and trajectory of Earth.

Cornetto
balderdash9@lemmy.zip 2 months ago
Here you go. This is a cornetto, a professional musical instrument, it was single most popular instrument of the renaissance; Venice, Italy was a major centre for its construction and performance. It can be described as a combination of two instruments; the trumpet from which it owes its cup mouthpiece and blowing technique, and the flute from which it takes its wooden body and finger holes. It is this combination of instruments and playing techniques that gives the cornetto its distinctive vocal quality and its expressive and virtuosic agility. The instrument is curved along its length (approx 600mm) and is hand carved in two halves and then glued together (Titebond III), this method of construction allows for carefull attention to the caving of its complex conical bore, which ranges from approximately 7.5mm to 25mm at the bell. The instrument is planed to an octagonal shape and the walls of the instrument are approx 4.5mm thick. It is covered in leather (veg tan kangaroo) and has decorative diamonds carved at the mouthpiece end. Before applying the leather, the instrument is soaked in organic boiled linseed oil for a few weeks. This instrument is made from maple and the small trumpet like mouthpiece is turned from buffalo horn:

BarbecueCowboy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 months ago
People have tried to setup a federated alternative to Tinder/etc and other things, but population is still real low and we’re still kind of weird. The sparse demographic info we have is also more than a bit skewed, it’s rough.

Popcorn Shrimp rain, please.
balderdash9@lemmy.zip 2 months ago
Perfectly cooked popcorn shrimp pour out of the sky. Animals run for cover; scientists scratch their heads; people stand in the streets, mouth open, catching popcorn shrimp in pure whimsy. The rain is global and lasts for a week. The excessive nutrients poured into the world’s ecological systems causes eutrophication, a total environmental catastrophe:

I'd like to be the sole owner of all global patents required for an effective, sustainable, eco-friendly solution to removing and recycling microplastics from earth's environment.
balderdash9@lemmy.zip 2 months ago
It’s official: you are now the sole owner of all eco-friendly and sustainable microplastic patents. There are only a few that are effective, and they are all set to expire in an hour:

Oh well, at least they exist now. Now to figure out which ones are effective and ensure someone implements them...

For myself, can’t think of much, just a good coffee. I never mastered the art of arabica-dabra. See you at the next wizard summit.
balderdash9@lemmy.zip 2 months ago
There, in front of you, a good coffee. It’s really good. It’s the best damn thing you’ve ever tasted. Desperately, you lick the last drop; the memory of this coffee makes everything else taste dull in comparison. It’s something like having trouble seeing after exposure to bright light:

Good is relative, you forget all coffee you’ve had previously and keep access to your current coffee. All other coffee is permanently worse than this one going forward.

If you are going to fasttrack my memory degredation due to a coffee request, at least have the decency to remove Fallout: New Vegas so I can play it again for the first time.
