No, I didn’t even notice haha
This just popped up in my Lemmy feed
- Comment on freedom units be like 1 day ago:
I’d say it’s a constant, not a unit

- Comment on [deleted] 6 days ago:
I meant it’s shrinking without immigration, yes. As more and more countries are developed, less and less countries have population growth, so there’s also no population growth through immigration anymore (when one time the people from the few countries that still have population growth are distributed among so many countries without population growth).
It is solving itself if we keep working on helping countries to become developed.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 days ago:
Population is shrinking in developed countries, looks like that issue will erase itself as more and more countries are developed.

As someone without children:
They should, yes. Children are extremely important for our future so especially people who earn well and can provide their children with a good life (likely leading to a successful carrier later on) should be encouraged to have them.
Additionally this kind of culture is needed if we want women to have same chances as men (since childcare still is majorly done by women, and likely always will be (progressive families split it evenly, conservative families don’t or at least don’t split it evenly, for every families where the father does more there’s at least one where the mother does more))
- Comment on Is there any (single player playable) game under $10 or equivalent which has made you point any go "ha" or given you an equivalent feeling because it was that enjoyable for every moment you played it? 1 week ago:
Minecraft not listed?
- Comment on The Witcher IV — Cinematic Reveal Trailer | The Game Awards 2024 1 week ago:
Even if they’d take a decade from now to release it, I wouldn’t mind. If I’ve learnt anything from CDPR it’s that masterpieces take time, and I’d much rather have a masterpiece in a decade than something half finished now.
- Comment on What do we think will be GoTY and which game do we think should be? 2 weeks ago:
Try it, it’s pretty good
Personally I’d also advocate for going in blindly and only looking up guides when you need them (for example when you seriously get into breeding) but do whatever you want.
(If you don’t play it blindly the first time, you’ll never get to play it blindly.)
(If you don’t have much time and are only playing locally or on your own server you also can boost xp gain, that helped me a bit for the later levels since I just didn’t have time for grinding.)
- Comment on What do we think will be GoTY and which game do we think should be? 2 weeks ago:
Personally I’d pick Palworld.
-
pretty unique concept (putting the best from dozens of games together as your base and continuing to expand from there)
-
very fun (I don’t seem to be alone with that opinion given how quickly it grew)
-
awarding a DLC (elden ring erdtree) of a game that has already been GotY is lame (and just awarding a DLC in general)
-
over 2.1 million simultaneous players
-
high flexibility, even for a sandbox game (ever wanted to attach a rocket launcher to your dinosaurs? to build a full fortress that basically can’t be taken? or do you prefer a cozy cabin? want to explore to get better? prefer to minmax your base instead? become a master of breeding? just grind money? etc)

- Comment on CEO brains go brrrrr 2 weeks ago:
Do you think killing for example Hitler would’ve changed anything? He just was some random guy who joined an already existing movement (and even without that movement ww2 was inevitable after the peace treaties of Versailles and Saint-Germain). They’d just have picked someone else to lead it
Do you think killing Putin would change anything? He put complete loyalists everywhere, if he’s gone his political line will continue.
These are systematical issues, you can’t fix them as long as a large majority of those who have power to change anything (in a democracy thankfully that’s everyone who’s eligible for voting) simply accept it.
Side note: In the USA’s recent election ~32% voted for the Republicans and ~32% for the Democrats while over a third just didn’t care at all. That’s not how you get something to change in a democracy!
- Comment on Fashion is cyclical 3 weeks ago:
If you have something that slightly resembles an amongus astronaut as your pfp people will think: ohhh are you “from the early 2020s”
You can’t dress up as it though when those trends happen over the internet.
- Comment on Fashion is cyclical 3 weeks ago:
Internet culture has very strong trends. MLG era, deepfried pictures, amongus era, whatever people on tiktok are watching (brainrot), …
- Comment on Optimisation is a Slow Process 5 weeks ago:
“It’s either cold enough that I’m gonna die or it’s not. Not sitting on the cold floor isn’t going to save me in a situation where it would matter.”
Until you remember that your body needs energy to heat your body, and needs less energy when you lose less, having more spare every for other things like your immune system.
- Comment on Optimisation is a Slow Process 5 weeks ago:
It does? Look at your arms when you’re cold, you’ll see all your tiny hairs are standing to help prevent the body from losing too much heat.
- Comment on Houses in my area increases 82% in just 4 years 1 month ago:
More like that they probably are too young to have bought a home earlier. All people in their 20s (and I think we make a large percentage of Lemmy users) simply have to cope and buy some overpriced home regardless.
- Comment on Houses in my area increases 82% in just 4 years 1 month ago:
👍 in Europe earthquakes luckily are less of a concern, so we care more about longevity (you’ll find many places where pretty much every house is over a hundred years old) and good isolation (to keep the heat inside in winter and outside in summer so we can heat less / don’t have to use air conditioning on our way to net zero)
- Comment on your mom falls significantly faster than g 1 month ago:
Why your spoiler is wrong:
The gravitational force between two objects is G(m1 m2)/r²
G = ~6.67 • 10^-11 Nm²/kg²
m1 = Mass of the earth = ~5.972 • 10^24 kg
m2 = Mass of the second object, I’ll use M to refer to this from now on
r = ~6378 • 10^3 m
Fg = 6.67 • 10^-11^ Nm²/kg² • 5.972 • 10^24^ kg • M / (6378 • 10^3 m)² = ~9.81 • M N/kg = 9.81 • M m kg / s² / kg = 9.81 • M m/s² = g • M
Since this is the acceleration that works between both masses, it already includes the mass of an iron ball having a stronger gravitational field than that of a feather.
So yes, they are, in fact, taking the same time to fall.

- Comment on How is the hydrogen made? 2 months ago:
But you could technically build huge solar panel areas in deserts and bring that hydrogen to populated areas. Or you could use excess energy from renewables to produce hydrogen, storing at least some of the excess energy for times where renewables produce less.

Can we please make an experiment to verify this, @ESA @NASA

Simply go higher. At some altitude there just are no mosquitos anymore.

- Comment on Brand recognition 2 months ago:
Oh it’s a term linked to that industry…
But I suppose average people will not know of that meaning, so it’s a perfectly fine brand name (I also still don’t know what it means but know enough to know that I don’t want to know it)

What’s wrong with this?
