And Im pretty sure there are also jellyfish that live in symbyosis with algae that they carry along with them which photosynthesize, creating sugars for the jellyfish.
- Comment on It's a matter of perspective 4 weeks ago:
I think the joke is that there’s indeed unequivocally just three, and that one of them still says four despite that fact, contradicting the readers expectations who normally for this format expects the middle thing to be something that changes with perspective (eg. 6 vs 9)
- Comment on Minetest breaks the chains of being a Minecraft clone with a new name — Luanti 5 weeks ago:
I recognize you and your profile picture from some quite popular minetest mods. :D I have a question regarding making content for Luanti:
I’ve been interested in maybe some day making a game for Luanti, but I don’t really like Lua (I for example imagine that undefined variables evaluating to
nil
rather than directly throwing an error, identifiers by default being public, and absence of static checking of possibility of null dereference before runtime to be things that can cause quite some annoying bugs). Is there some popular X to Lua transpiler that you’ve heard people using? Something like what Typescript is to JS or Kotlin/Clojure/Scala to Java (not exactly the same thing since they all compile directly to jvm bytecode rather than java, but you get the point).I hope I’m not insulting you by asking such a question.

I thought public Invidious instances stopped working?

I’m using both.
- Comment on Google now requires JavaScript 1 month ago:
I installed NoScript just a few days ago, because I’m forced to use a really weak computer that struggles to even browse the modern web. I feel like NoScript improved it a lot, and while quite a few websites broke (including lemmy), I just set the ones that I need working to trusted, but the performance is still good (I should note I’m also using it in conjunction with an automatic tab discarter).
I however also don’t directly use Google. Both SearX and Yandex don’t need javascript, so I’m unaffected by these news, despite being a bit mad about it as a reflection of the direction the web is going as a whole.

It’s intentionally badly cropped for comedic effect.

Wasn’t there some trend of people wanting to make self-driving cars take into account ethics in their decision making in emergencies, by having some website where people could pretty much solve trolley problems, with just a conductor in the trolley to also take into account some years ago? I’m imagining them scraping that subbredit for answers to questions like “AITA for having run over 2 orphan children in order to save 6 old ladies?”

- Comment on How is Open Source developed paid? 2 months ago:
The f in foss is for free as in libre, not price. And I imagine it is used to avoid touching the topic of open source software vs libre software. So saying you can make money from one and not the other doesn’t make sense.

Couldn’t we just get rid of the animals and just ferment the beans ourselves by using the bacteria in their guts?

I think the comment is missing some commas. This is what I think it’s supposed to be:
Carrots, Vegetable peeler, Lube
- Comment on Is land inclination included in area calculation? 3 months ago:
With the assumption that we now measure inclines of course
I interpreted your reply to njm1314 as meaning “we don’t need to measure inclination to cheat, we can do that by simply increasing our precision”
- Comment on Is land inclination included in area calculation? 3 months ago:
That would work for the perimeter, but not for the area.

Yeah, the mushroom guides I use in the pages for the edible mushrooms normally alert to dangerous mushrooms that may be mistaken for that mushroom and outlines the differences.

I do hear them if they are large enough and in high enough numbers, but it isn’t a hum that I hear. I hear what I imagine are them waking or the stuff they carry.
- Comment on Falling 5 months ago:
But how would that make the bowling ball fall faster? F = G × m₁ × m₂ / r² and F = m₁ × a ⇒ a = F / m = G × m₂ / r², where m₁ is the mass of the ball and m₂ the mass of the planet. So the gravitational acceleration of a bowling ball is independent of its mass.
- Comment on Autism 5 months ago:
Oh, that makes sense. I interpreted “sad” as the paper making the person who didn’t read it sad, the same way sad music is about making the listener sad than the actual music itself.

- Comment on Speed 6 months ago:
I once knew a sort of science skepticist (didn’t believe in the moonlanding nor did he believe that the earth wasn’t flat). He was of the belief that scientists are deceiving the public and one of the examples he gave was that they claim that the earth rotates at 1 670 km/h but if we look outside that’s very clearly not the case and if jump we aren’t flung at that speed to the side. I spent half an hour in a back and forth trying to explain the concept of relative velocity and inertia. It didn’t go anywhere.

I know. If I want to see it I can simply click on the fediverse button on the comment to see what the instance that sent it sees.

What does hatred for others here mean? Is it how much drinking the beverage defies social norms or is it how much alcohol the beverage contains?
- Comment on Hypersensitive tankie mod 7 months ago:
No, I’m not appealing to that. Fuck nazis. (I don’t actually see how my comment could be interpreted as that since my comment was in response to users complaining about having their content removed from other instances or communities, which if anything would make them the free speechers (I’m not saying that they are))
Lemmy, in contrast to centralized platforms doesn’t force you to be restricted to the rulings of a single group of people under threat of being barred from using the entire platform.
My point is, when you are talking on another instance, you are a guest there and it is completely expected for them to kick you out if you don’t abide by their house rules or if they don’t want you there anymore for whatever reason. While it doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be criticized for it, the impression I got from the comments on this post is that they think it is some kind attack to a basic human right to remove their comments from a foreign instance and that admins should allow all content your instance allows.
The same can be said about the reactions people from other instances display towards news of some instance defederating from the instance they are on.

I want to remind everyone in here that Lemmy is self-hosted and federated. If you want to make your post visible on their server or community, you have to abide by the rules they set even if they or their enforcement may seem arbitrary or stupid. It’s their server/community you want to put your stuff on and they do not have a duty to accept it. Lemmy allows you to block those communities or instances or even to create or host your own.
