Finally, I can follow those threaded intellectual debates on the Internet without scrolling!
- Comment on Tea time 2 weeks ago:
Agreed. And I have to say, to me it did seem like a reaction that came from rock bottom (in his individuality). And it was interesting to see other healthcare companies (like the one called blue-something) revisiting their recent measures on screwing people…
This reminds me of anarchistic work from Severino Di Giovanni…
- Comment on Never in my life has it been harder to control my spending impulse than this moment 2 weeks ago:
iirc the admins and users from hexbear already moved to another platform (not lemmy), this is just what 1 admin decided to do some time before that ‘split’ happened (again, the majority already moved out)
- Comment on Tea time 2 weeks ago:
I agree… like on a theoretical level. Then, USA is what it is, with their school shootings and all. So, what Luigi Mangione (or someone else) did should be seen in that context. There’s a certain virtue in knowing to direct your anger/ despair to those causing, enjoying, and profiting over your misery. And it wasn’t a mere revenge act, it was full of symbolism.
- Comment on Low Budget Terminator 2 weeks ago:
Another remake movie that’s not better or even up to the standard set by the original. At least they didn’t spend a whole lot of money.
- Comment on put that in your pipe and smoke it 3 weeks ago:
And it has glycosides too! So it may also be toxic to humans.

Thanks, that clarifies the… Aliens?

Creationists maybe

If you prefer to live a natural life, be my guest. Go ahead, live by your logic as you expect from others. Hunt, kill, and process your own food ;)

- Comment on SteamOS expands beyond Steam Deck 2 months ago:
You can have a remarkably similar experience on any distro, just enable flathub and install verified packages from there.
- Comment on So be good for goodness' sake! 2 months ago:
Perhaps, to expand a little bit. We can measure energy on different units, and I don’t know how to draw the comparison, but can imagine something (e.g. 1 gram of coal produces N Joules). Then it’s easy to see how the same amount of Uranium could produce M Joules.
But waste… Is it CO2 ? Or H3O ?
- Comment on So be good for goodness' sake! 2 months ago:
Huh? I actually felt the whole post was wrong. They measure “waste” without units. That’s wild, like saying that feathers are million times more heavy than iron. It can be true, sure.

- Comment on "We Were Asleep At The Wheel": Ridley Scott Reflects On Divisive Alien Prequel Prometheus 3 months ago:
The fact that black goo “eats” other life to “grow” implies that this Engineer on, according to the article, ancient planet Earth wasn’t just planting life. Also, there was almost no lava on Earth so it would be some recent geological time. I can only accept that he was planting human-like Intelligent life, perhaps our species itself. I liked it because it seemed to align with creationist myth and that’s a huge cultural mashup to me.
Anyway, I tend to overthink…
There’s another ‘fact’ taken for granted by this article that I can’t quite follow. They say the Engineer was acting on its own and this was a negative behavior in their species, a bit of a paria. What sustains such claim?
PS. I only saw Aliens (1986) and Prometheus. Not a fan of horror, but SciFi.

Or decide not to kill their relatives. Like in previous revolutions ;)

Did anyone read the grammar of graphics paper from Hadley Wickham? I kind of enjoyed it a lot, and got to know what’s the power source really. I’m amazed so many software libraries came to reinvent compossibility in such unergonomic ways… But it’s nice to have options.
I think I might prefer base R over matplotlib though… :p

Can you do a plot a hundred times with a hundred different datasets with these templates? Without having to apply such template to each file, just pointing to the folder with them…
To me that’s the whole point of programming, you can automatically do a thing and it doesn’t matter if it took an hour to write the code. Once you have it, you point it to the folder with all datasets, iterate over while you drink a coffee and then you have the hundreds of plots.

i think we just have higher neurodiversity…
meanwhile, facebook and so on, have more assholes, fake accounts, etc.
But we are not fully immune to assholes, we all are (at some point).
- Comment on short kings 5 months ago:
I only learnt this recently, buy snail depictions were ubiquitous in gothic manuscripts’ marginalia. Oftentimes, with social implications, very much like satire. The snail, being slow and seemingly harmless, simbolizes futility or absurdity of certain endeavors. There’s many interpretations among historians and art enthusiasts.

- Comment on Currently downloading The Witcher 3 for the first time. Got any advice for me? 5 months ago:
Game is huge. Do use cheats for potions or ingredients. Check popular mods that give easy way around cumbersome tasks.
And, if you’re like me and always play spellcasters instead of fighters in RPGs, do check some builds after certain level (20s?). Get griffin set of course, do know there are levels for its items.

First, stop buying games (*1)
Second, consider reading about the sunken costs fallacy, e.g. duckduckgo.com/?q=how+to+overcome+sunk+cost+falla…
(*1) there’s piracy xdd

I loved the end!
Spoiler
It was open. Did you see how the “other guy” behind opens his smile with the knife? To me, that detail, meant like yeah now every crazy person will be ‘the’ joker. But I’d rather think he just survived. I think it’s the main interpretation.
