I learned what terminal irony poisoning looks like from him. Thanks jreg!

I created an account and am signed in on element, what's a good way to get the feel for things?

Any room recommendations?

I can't accept this. She has to be in on it, this has to be a staged social media prank, please.

I'm pretty sure none of these are actually "bullshit jobs" as defined by Graeber, they just do things that Hexbear culture doesn't like.

Also, plenty of very real R&D & manufacturing jobs couldn't be described in 3 words without being needlessly vague or reductive. There is in fact complexity in a modern industrial economy.

we appear to have photographic evidence that "everyone clapped" congratulations

that rules.

Would it be accurate to say that Mexico's new president is a Social Democrat?

TIL all American 18-34 year olds are Ivy League college students.

the place I just moved into has a nice outdoor area and came with a (pretty busted but functional) propane grill. we're thinking of replacing it but maybe it's worth considering charcoal? Bwaaa

So the computer based solution proposed by Newton and Turing is rejected because the system is chaotic, meaning a general solution will always diverge from reality.

What I don't get is: this should still be good enough Run your solution every month or so, with updated measurements, and you'll have an ongoing "forecast" of conditions.

I'm referencing weather because that's we do. A weather forecast is a prediction of a chaotic system, but of one which changes every day or so. Prediction difficulty is dependent on local conditions and weather type, but we can still make predictions.

A gravitational system of 4 mutually interacting bodies is muuuuuch simpler than weather, and could be predicted far enough in advance to let a civilization adapt and persist!

Wow that's so quirky!

It's got a great soundtrack and pretty pleasant vibes. Probably be a mage or spellsword.

These are the 2021 numbers. I have a printout of the 2022 numbers (china 546B, US 141B) but not a digital copy.

This page indicates that the 2023 numbers are out but I can't get access to the report. anyone got the new version of this chart?

[-] Abracadaniel@hexbear.net 51 points 9 months ago

No, that would not be legal to sell. Even backup cameras are a regulatory requirement now.

That's fake news created by hexbear uncritically accepting any anti-bazinga statements as fact.

Friends just isn't woke enough.

I switched because my workplace has licenses for VSPro, and IT doesn't want us grabbing our own stuff off the internet.

What a disappointment! it's worse, and harder to use in almost every way. For the record I'm coding in Python and just need git integration and a debugger.

It's such a step back in design language and usability. Love to ignore free software in favor of its expensive "professional" counterpart shatter

It's looking like my friend can only go through with a long term (at least 6 months) move overseas they've been working on if I take care of their cat.

I haven't offered this and am not particularly fond of this cat. I don't want to integrate another animal into my home.

Here's the kicker: the friend is a roommate so the cat already lives here (in their room).

Not sure what to do. Like I want my friend to get to go, but at what cost? I'm sure they'll resent it if I don't help, and I am ready for them to move out makima-think

But again I really don't like this cat very much, she's really unfriendly with our cat and dog.

I feel like it's unreasonable to not offer to help.

My legs feel more sensitive to air flow when wearing fishnets than when bare. The pattern they make on my leg is similar to that of the dimples on a golf ball, which induce a turbulent boundary layer on the surface of the ball to reduce drag.

If fishnets are causing the same effect, there would be changes in heat transfer but I'm not sure I'm up to digging into the differential equations.

In short, I'm thinking about wearing fishnets while cycling for aero.

I like Mullvad but it doesn't support port forwarding, which I'd like in order seed torrents effectively. I have symmetrical up/down speeds but barely use the upload speed and I want to help out a lil more kitty-cri-texas

Thanks in advance
