Uh… yeah?

ALL those stories are based on previous stories.

I’m really not sure what your point is.

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 12 points 23 hours ago

Almost. Trump is the franchise. There’s another layer beneath him.

I really feel this is the key point that’s getting lost in this.

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 days ago

There is, thanks!

Here’s the link to the standard edition: www.amazon.com/dp/1698842120

There’s a lot of good info on Shavian at www.shavian.info, too.

Hey everyone, I'm thrilled to announce the Shavian edition of Blue Are the Hills is finally published! This has been a massive project, and I’m excited to contribute a modern, full-length novel to our reading pool.

This is a psychological sci-fi novel about identity, transhumanism, and hope. I’m looking forward to hearing what you think!

You can find the book here: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G1B7LRWB

This doesn’t tell you anything if they were all derived from earlier stories – which, it turns out, is actually the case. We have the earlier stories as proof, in many cases.

It’s a good thing trump isn’t dumb enough to think US debt is easily solved by printing more money, right?

Wouldn’t that be crazy?

(I really hope this isn’t something he can actually do. It shouldn’t be possible, but neither should a lot of things he’s done.)

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 week ago

No, because the existence of some uncontrollable elements doesn’t erase all the controllable elements.

This woman did something very wrong and controllable, which is why she’s in prison.

There’s no way these people are being treated humanely. It takes time to establish the infrastructure, train new staff, and do all the other things necessary to expand this much and still treat people humanely.

The conditions must be breaking so many laws, and most of these people haven’t been charged with a crime, right?

You sound like a fungi. How are you at subspace travel?

Oh shit, it’s the guy!

Depends.

Are we talking TOS? That was the aspic era. in TNG, though, I can see a capri sun style meat bag with a straw…

 
 

Worth it.

 

Sometimes when seafood has fermented or not been salted at all, in street food, it tastes sweet. It shouldn’t, because usually fermented fish tastes bitter, but after a while, it begins to taste sweet.

Why? What’s the chemical change that makes this happen?

Lots of very northern fermentation methods make it taste this way, but why?

 

I’d never considered this before, but I got a batch of screens that includes steel and copper (I’ve always used copper), and I’m wondering what’s the difference? Is there a benefit to either? Thanks!

 

This is also good advice wrt to all influencers. Worth a watch.

Use case: sometimes I want to see my own comments in context – which is why, I assume, the ‘View parent’ option exists, but sometimes I also want to see it in the context of the whole post, for similar reasons.

In this case, I’ll tap ‘View post’’… and then lose all context, because my comment disappears into a sea of thousands, and I can’t find it again. Having the option to colour my username (like is done with mods and OP) would be very helpful.

Use case 2: sometimes I happen upon a post that I had commented in, and that post exploded after I’ve made a bunch of other comments in other posts, so I don’t want to sort through that post to see how my comment compares to the general consensus. It would be nice if I could easily see my own comments without mentally breaking the conversation flow to read every username (my brain has been trained to mostly ignore them, since that’s largely irrelevant to the conversation). Highlighting my own username would allow me to read a conversation I know I contributed to without subconsciously looking for myself between each comment. Yes, I know my own writing, but my brain still wants to do this, and it’s very slightly distracting.

Cheers, yours is literally my favourite app. Thank you for your hard work!
