Once you get to an 88 person polycule, I start to wonder about upper limits. Could all of humanity just be one big polycule? That actually might… be awesome?
- Comment on American media is freaking about homicides on transit 3 days ago:
It depends on what you mean by “on purpose.” You didn’t mean to hit that light pole, but there was a lot of intentionality around the decision to drive and the decision to build a car-based society that is very much “on purpose” and the effect of that is deaths due to cars.

We need UBI for pets
- Comment on The Video-Game Industry Has a Problem: There Are Too Many Games 4 days ago:
I don’t feel there are too many games, because I can simply buy fewer games, but I do miss the feeling that there are games that everyone is buying and we’re all playing at the same time. I felt like everyone I knew was playing BG3 and we were all talking about it all the time. I don’t want to only play those kinds of big, blockbuster games, but I do want a few of them per year.
- Comment on What is the difference between pansexual, bisexual, and omnisexual? How do I know which one I am? 1 week ago:
Plus you get to be one of the letters in the acronym! Lots of people disagree on which letters to use, but everyone puts a b for bisexual in there.

- Comment on What do you like/dislike about lemmy? 11 months ago:
The thing I dislike the most is that my bot got banned. I made a bot to post carefully categorized articles into their proper communities, but it was banned without warning or explanation. All the communities I was modding dried up shortly thereafter because I didn’t manually post in them instead.
- Comment on What does "araffe" mean? 1 year ago:
Someone offered a definition here: lemmy.world/comment/8529913
From the discussion, that definition may also be a hallucination, though.

- Comment on Why do companies love chrome so much? 1 year ago:
Not really, unfortunately. Firefox has only like 85% of the spec implemented, iirc. It is the browser I develop in most, personally, though, fwiw.
- Comment on Why do companies love chrome so much? 1 year ago:
64.7% of all web traffic was from Google Chrome in 12/23. Companies like it because you can develop for one browser and support most people.

- Comment on Do some people think rapping is a permutation of raping, subtly adding to the edge factor of this music genre and making it less likely older people will take to it than younger people who don't know 2 years ago:
It’s common enough that this dude made this song about it, idk 🤷

I use rss to discover content that I post to Lemmy. The value of Lemmy, for me, is the community and the comments, so when I see something interesting in my rss feed reader, I post it to a relevant community to see what folks have to say.

It’s in the left nav – press the ham butt in the upper left hand corner, and then it’s called “watchlist”

I’ve tried 10-15 times to finish it on hardcore mode. The most recent time, I was killed by a warper bringing up my last load from the lost river trying to finish the rocket and I literally can’t any more.
- Comment on Isn't technically everything open-source? 2 years ago:
Kinda. What you’re referring to is “decompilation”, which is the process of taking the output of a compiler and trying to reverse-engineer the code that produced it. But decompiled code is really hard to read and modify, because it isn’t what humans wrote, it’s what the compiler translated it into, and that can have some unexpected changes than are mostly irreversible. And, since it’s closed source, if you somehow manage to make a change, you can’t re-release it – you don’t have the license to do so.
With open source, you see the same code as the maintainers, so it has the high-level programming concepts and good variable names, and you have permissions to fork and release your own version.
