Perhaps a soft kneepad that you wear would work for you

 

Lost a good friend on Nov 11th, I last talked to them on the Oct 27th.

I've spent about 2000 hours with this friend, over three years, so a new friendship, but a deep and recurring one. Lately our schedules have not meshed (Since about February), so I've only see them sporadically.

The first 12 hours were rough, I'm getting better now, but still misty eyed. Given the frequency of our activities there are many things that just remind me of their absence. There is the aspect of losing someone, and that sadness... but there is something more here, with a 2000 hour mental model of someone else's behavior and reactions, the brain feels a little empty now that whenever anything triggers the 'oh we did this', 'oh they would like this'.... it gets short circuited by... and they are gone now.

I've lost people before, quite a few - sadly, but it never really had this level of impact. I suppose there is a proximity / frequency factor in the impact of a loss.

Rest in Peace - General.

Irresponsible driver kills cyclist at xy intersection.

And you read the article and it's a ambulance with it's sirens on, going through a a green light that the cyclist was running.

The reason unbiased/factual headlines are preferred is because there can always be context we miss at the reporting time.

@[email protected] Why the downvote? I've had nothing but nice things to say about Dustborn, I'm here helping you bring activity to your post......

Some people want too politicalize everything. They see it as a war. They see having a right side and a wrong side, and the truth is just inconvenient. It's better to persuade people than communicate truth.

The Maldives is a very small enclosed space. Whatever Island you go to, or resort you go to, there's not a lot of diversity of things to do. You're going to see everything very quickly, and most of your time is going to be " relaxing ".

If you're in the mental space to be able to look past your ex-wife and their new husband. Go. Hang out with your son, go skiing, go fishing, crab hunting, paddle ball, anything.

If, however, even seeing your ex triggers emotions in you that you can't control. That's going to be a problem in a very small enclosed space.

What you're talking about is shorting the market, that is dangerous to do. Unlimited liability

The recall is redundant, it should just be a notice that butter contains milk, and stickers for any leftover inventory.

Collecting it and destroying it like it's poison is silly. If your allergic to milk, you probably should not be buying butter.

Every time Zogg publishes a video, i feel a little emotional rush, they are all gems.

 

How to define time? What are arrows of time? What's all the fuzz about entropy? What does it have to do with the Big Bang? What's the Arrow of Radiation? What is the Fork Asymmetry? Why do we remember the past and not the future? Is time a macroscopic phenomenon? And if god doesn't play dice, what game DOES he play?

They gave it a 5/5! Amazing.

There is a reason the art of war tells you to leave your enemy an escape. So they fight less intensely.

I think there was a reasonable chance after Trump lost the last election, if he was allowed to go fallow in the field peacefully, he probably would have.

However, the absolute avalanche of litigation, and prosecutions against Trump basically compelled him to run for president as the only way to get a respite or peace. I honestly thought Biden was going to pardon Trump for all possible crimes, just to let things settle down. it was petty that he didn't, letting a lot of prosecutors build their names by taking a bite out of Trump. Who, quite frankly, doesn't have his shit together, can't keep his mouth shut, always involved in comically bad low level fraud, and is an easy target.

Therefore, Trump had to run, had to win. Put 100% of his future into it, because that was his only escape.

A place to discuss metabolic health research, papers, lectures, diets, etc. I spend a good deal of time soaking up this area of research - Thought I'd just start publicly journaling my notes and maybe kick off a new community.

Introducing a vertical circular bus - A giant O of belts and lifters fully connected allowing for input / output anywhere along the bus.

Pros :

  • Modular, you can build anywhere on the vertical bus stack
  • Limits spaghetti by providing a clear and easy to access API for all players.
  • Very fast to reach all parts of the factory since everything is very concentrated into a cube of productivity.

Cons :

  • Satisfactory netcode doesn't like SUPER dense areas, so it could become problematic for multiplayer.
  • There is no priority mergers yet in Satisfactory, so if you want to prioritize a input to the bus you downgrade the belts/lifters feeding INTO the priority input, that way the belt will back up and the priority input will provide the bulk of the material.

Nevermind! Apparently a satisfactory community already exists and this is being redundant. [email protected] <- Exists and is awesome.

Let's suppose we could dump enough "breathable" air (whatever that means for humans) into the solar system that it filled the spaces between planets.

What would happen?

A - I imagine it would then become possible to fly airplanes between planets, perhaps balloons? Would space travel become easier or harder?

B - According to another lemmy post, we would start to hear sound waves from the sun (A constant jackhammer sound - delightful)

C - Each each planet become the center of some mega cyclone (like the Jupiter storms, but bigger)?

D - At some point the air above us wouldn't be pushing down onto the earth at sea level, could we survive the additional pressure?
