- Comment on How do you feel about someone taking the coins people tossed into a fountain or other public waterworks display for "wishes?" 7 hours ago:
I’d much rather someone who actually needs the money enough to pick up small change to take them than for them to just sit there. If someone’s desperate enough to fish coins out of a fountain for a few dollars, they can absolutely have them.
- Comment on When Lemmy got named did no one think that the "lemming" association might alienate people? 23 hours ago:
Well, I’m sold!
- Comment on Is it a red flag if a potential employer rushes you? 1 day ago:
It’s time sensitive - she needs someone to fill this position right now. If it’s so time sensitive, she might be willing to pay more than she normally would to get someone to do so.
- Comment on Is it a red flag if a potential employer rushes you? 1 day ago:
Sounds to me like she put her cards on the table and gave you a nice bargaining chip when it comes time to discuss compensation.

The most fun thing about this community is responding with serious answers to memes that were intended to be jokes. :)
- Comment on Does 'attempted murder' require a viable method? 3 days ago:
I mean, it’s not like it’s a serious question for which I need a specific answer. Folks have been replying with answers from various jurisdictions, which is great - all interesting!
- Comment on mass 3 days ago:
I just grabbed it from Wikipedia, so it’s likely written to be understandable to a layman (which is good, because that’s what I am).
That said, it’s just referring to the mass relative to the point you’re declaring the center of mass. If there’s 15g on the left, there should be 15g on the right; think of it like the center of mass being (0,0,0) on a 3 dimensional graph. 15g on one side is “negative” and on the other is “positive”, so the sum at the (0,0) point is 0g.
- Comment on mass 3 days ago:
Obviously the left one.
In physics, the center of mass of a distribution of mass in space is the unique point at any given time where the weighted relative position of the distributed mass sums to zero. For a rigid body containing its center of mass, this is the point to which a force may be applied to cause a linear acceleration without an angular acceleration.
If they wanted this to be an actual, debatable question, they shouldn’t have used ‘center of mass’, as the term has a specific definition and the question has a correct answer; it’s not open to interpretation, like “How would a horse wear pants?” or similar questions.

- Comment on Is this green or blue? 3 days ago:
The RGB value for this color seems to be:
(0,122,133)
As such, it is slightly more blue than green, if that helps you win your argument. If not, you can just say it’s “bluegreen” and only be half wrong.

I don’t know what that grey lump actually consists of, but for some reason I think it probably tastes really good. I have no basis for this belief, but I would try that. I’d probably take a too-large helping and regret it shortly thereafter.

No Stupid Questions is typically for questions that have answers that are not based on speculation or opinion. That might be better suited for Ask Lemmy. (!asklemmy@lemmy.ml or !asklemmy@lemmy.world)

Brad Wentworth? Is that you?

I’m not sure what’s better: The alligator wearing the hat, the conservation instructor seemingly grabbing its tail to stop it, or the alligator just not giving a shit and carrying on with its day.

Dude should just delete his account in a form of internet Harakiri at that point.

- Comment on the woke left is always like “we need less shootings” gun control so kids can’t commit domestic terror. but the right says i get wolf pussy so they win. 5 weeks ago:
Okay, Stalinwolf, you seem like an authority on this subject. I believe everything this person says.

I have so many questions.

Better show him some. Just to be sure.
- Comment on Think this is a realistic prediction or just being used to hype up investors? 5 weeks ago:
There’s probably already games where AI generated “every pixel”, just not the code that displays those pixels… This headline only implies art, even though it’s pretty clear they meant the whole game, code and all, and without seeing the whole article, we can’t really effectively comment.

They all look happy, except the yellow beaker on the right and the yellow test tube, who have decidedly :| faces. I wonder what they know that the others don’t…

Not on the same scale obviously, but this exists.

- Comment on Any Roguelike/Roguelite suggestions? 1 month ago:
In this same vein, Backpack Hero is quite good, too! If you like one, maybe check out the other.
- Comment on Any Roguelike/Roguelite suggestions? 1 month ago:
It’s worth noting that Risk of Rain 1 and 2 are very different games (3rd person 3D vs. 2D side scroller), and both are good - so if 2 didn’t grab you, maybe check out 1 and see if that’s more your thing. (The remastered version has a lot of nice QOL stuff and some new game modes and items.)

Strongly suspect that “a % of the overtime rate” is a lot less than 100%, too.

I got you, fam. It’s not exactly the same - more narrative focused, and slower paced - but it will scratch that same itch.
