What’s proven is that our current mathematical models do not accurately represent the universe due to the way things move and effects of gravity
This is actually the bit that Vera Rubin discovered. The summary of her discovery in the quote is the issue :)

Federate communities are literally the point of lemmy. They were there from the beginning?

My brain read it correctly on the first glance, but then when I looked at it more closely, I assumed I had misread it, and then had to work out how to read it, only to arrive back where I started…

then you can always just set up a Jellyfin on the server and stream to your TV, which would allow you to use your normal remote.
Or simply laptop to the TV via the HDMI output and run it directly.

Yep. I removed their comment locally after replying to it. The reply was because those removals won’t federate
- Comment on In 2015, the Fortingall Yew, one of the oldest trees in Europe, decided trans rights are tree rights and switched its sex to female 🏳️⚧️ eat shit transphobes 4 weeks ago:
Not so much.
Sex and gender are distinct elements. So whilst they’re not the same thing, they do interact with each other and influence each other to some extent or another. If they didn’t, then the world wouldn’t be full of people whose gender and sex are in alignment. For that matter, if they didn’t, we wouldn’t even understand the concept of sex and gender being in alignment.
Also, “transgenderism” is a term popular with transphobes, because it frames trans people as a belief/ideology, rather than acknowledging their identity.
no non-sapient creature can ever be trans, because you need consciousness to have a gender identity in the first place.
But for all of that, strictly speaking, this is true.

Were it a “curious, socratic style question” you wouldn’t have framed your question with loaded terminology designed to make trans people sound unreasonable and fake.

You can also use ^ to search your history instead, and do away with the tabs!

It is possible to develop ADHD like symptoms from a TBI of some kind. It’s not ADHD from a technical definition standpoint, but from lived experience of symptoms, it can line up with ADHD
- Comment on Why do some people have so many tabs open on their browser? 1 month ago:
It’s also most likely not an explanation. I’m ADHD too, and I hate having browser tabs open. I keep them as few as possible, closing them as soon as I don’t know what they are or why they’re open.
- Comment on Why do some people have so many tabs open on their browser? 1 month ago:
I mean, you can scan the page titles in your history just as easily as you can scan the titles of 400 tabs. So it’s kind of same same if you can’t remember any pertinent details
- Comment on Why do some people have so many tabs open on their browser? 1 month ago:
I have 2 or 3 open at once at most. If I can’t remember what it’s for, it gets closed. And if I need to find it again, searching my history is easier than searching my open tabs
I just can’t handle tab frenzy

- Comment on Is there a word for when someone is not capable of, or doesn't try to understand verbal communication in a language, they are fluent in similar to functionally illiterate but for speech? 1 month ago:
It’s not really a thing is it?
I mean, language learners often have a disparity in their ability to read vs their ability to understand spoken language, but that’s mostly because of things like accents, speed of speech etc, all of which improve with practice/exposure…

Honestly, it sounds perfect. A chance to get some independence, yet still close by so he's got a safety net and support (and so you can simply stay in each others lives)
