  If you make it a bit thicker, that sounds like Kefir

  There are different “kinds” of infinity. For example, there is an infinite amount of natural numbers, and there is an infinite amount of real numbers. Still, natural numbers only make up a tiny part of real numbers, so while both are infinite, the set of real numbers is bigger. Hilbert’s Hotel is an analogy meant to convey how to deal with these different notions of infinity.

  Don’t get me wrong, I dislike other gaming consoles too. Why would I buy a device that I don’t really own, i.e. the manufacturer can pull the rug from under it at any time and render it completely useless? I get your point about ‘innovative’ designs. But then they should sell the device separately and allow the user to with it as they please (see steam deck).

  I’ve never seen a ‘publication quality’ plot that fits into the document as well as a tikz/pgf plot

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Note: before tariffs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve always felt the other way around: If you’re trying to sell me games, make them for PC. I’m not buying a new device just for Mario

  Also pops up a lot in basic electrical engineering as the conversion factor between amplitude and RMS value of sine waves

  Am I having a stroke?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PROTEIN BRO⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re right, it just feels weird to me to use grams for one measurement and pounds for another

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PROTEIN BRO⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve only seen g/kg which is less cursed. This is about the amount of protein you should eat relative to your body mass. But since this is a recommendation for daily intake, I would love to see gymbros use the SI version of g/kg/day, namely 1/s.

  I’m almost afraid to ask, but is there a LaTeX package for emojis? Or do you just insert them as unicode?

  The neat part of VPN port forwarding is that your local machine can be reached at VPN_endpoint_IP:forwarded_port. Whether your ISP gives you a public IP or not has nothing to do with that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dunning-Kruger⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Countries besides the US exist, y’know? Where getting a master’s degree does not require you to go into debt and you’re usually employed by the university as a TA while pursuing a PhD?

  You mean 0.47e12 or 0.47 + 1e12?

  They went back to the correct layout on newer models

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hey gamers~⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Sadly they killed port forwarding though. I suspect torrenting speeds are much worse now?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hexagons Are The Bestagons.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As a finite element method enjoyer, I always regarded triangles as superior because many shapes can be built from them. Triangles are the bestagles?

  You can find these stations in lots of public places in Europe. They usually have some tools for basic bicycle repair too

  Funny interpretation of the term ‘endless’ you got there

  I can see that bodybuilders are not attractive to most people, but how are their bodies ‘fake’? Getting to look like that is hard work, and not just a matter of money, makeup and plastic surgery.
