I like Lemmy but it’s honestly boring and I find myself just not using any media sites anymore. Lemmy is awesome for what it is, but I can only take so much Linux and leftist politics masturbation. I’m rarely on here more than ten minutes at a time

I once had an LLM write my son a birthday card as if I were an international fugitive escaping from the three-letter agencies, it was pretty fun

This is me with mango. Disgusting ass food that’s related to poison ivy. No thanks!

Jason Molina of Songs: Ohia and Magnolia Electric Co.

I’ve read his biography, I’ve listened to all of his music, and never in my life have I heard an artist whom I just wanted to give them a big hug. The guy struggled on an epic level in ways that I don’t think many do, and he makes me feel his sadness in a very intense and real way. His songwriting is exemplary and original, and his lyrics are regularly bouncing around my head.

I’ve done this before. Example

I was going somewhere yesterday, the bank?, when I saw…

It’s also fun to interject bangs into sentences too

I was so convinced that I was going to die!, but I ended up just fine.

Ultimately, I feel that if language is descriptive and not ambiguous it is legitimate English.

En dash is very useful for

Dates (3–20–25)
Subtraction (although I think math script uses its own unique dash?) (7 – 1 = 6)
Value ranges ($20–40)

Then of course there’s the beautiful—and slightly different—em dash!

A major problem I’ve always had with that story is the fact that it is predicated on the fact that Adam and Eve acted disobediently by eating of the fruit of knowledge of good and evil. But what is disobedience? Is disobedience a form of evil? To disobey God would be evil if it was done with knowledge, correct? How could Adam and Eve have possibly known that what they were doing was evil if they had no knowledge of such? Why would God set the situation up to necessitate that Adam and Eve would eventually disobey his wishes if they had no knowledge of good and evil, and therefore no knowledge of how their actions would have an impact or how their actions would be considered wrong. If a 2 year old disobeys their parents it’s easy to brush off their behavior as just being ignorant, and Adam and Eve are effectively like the cosmic 2-year-old, totally incapable of understanding consequences, or righteousness, or disobedience. Fundamentally, the God that created the Garden of Eden must be evil because what he did is akin to me putting an infant in a room with a loaded bear trap and telling them not to touch it. They don’t understand the consequences, nor do they really understand what commands mean. Is it really the baby’s fault for getting caught in a bear trap if I am the one with superior agency and knowledge and I was the one that set the whole thing up in the first place? Who is really the evil one here?

God is often referred to as the Father, and if he is truly a father I would say that he fails miserably in that duty by the very fact that he put his children directly In harm’s way. Yes, it is the responsibility of the parent to put obstacles in the way of their children so that they can grow, but at the same time it is also the responsibility to protect them from grievous harm, and clearly he didn’t do this according to Genesis.

RV factory worker. I make around $95,000 gross at our current pay, though it has been as low as $56,000. I tend to work between 32–39 hours.

22° assumes a specific aspect ratio. Assuming this monitor has an aspect of 9:32, the angle would be much smaller. Though I’m not sure how to calculate it lol. It looks like it’s probably closer to 15°

Can you imagine attempting to clean this

It’ll forever be F-stab in my head

In KDE I hotkeyed Super+PrtSc to run flameshot gui, so I can instantly get very good custom screen shots that I can annotate or whatever if I want. Then Alt+Super+PrtSc takes a screenshot of both displays and saves it to a custom folder

I asked an AI to calculate a side of a triangle today. The hypotenuse was 24 and both opposite sides were equal, with two small angles of 10° and a wide one of 160°. The answer should have been something a little over 12… And it very confidently said 25. That makes zero sense. Fucking AI really is stupid isn’t it.

This is why she’s an ex right

That or TheStraightDope!

Well if we’re going to be talking about logical fallacies, I feel like the string of arguments that you made there is a category error. Infinity isn’t exactly a number, it’s more of a philosophical concept than anything else. I would argue that trying to subtract Infinity from Infinity is illogical and kind of silly, but it wouldn’t be a reductio ad absurdum as you put it, but instead a category error.

An absurdist argument might be more like, if I have one cat I can trade it for one dog. Therefore infinite cats can be traded for infinite dogs. This is obviously absurd, because infinite cats don’t exist, unfortunately.

Well you’re wrong. A440 is the Nazi Reich frequency, and in response, the globohomo Jewish elites developed A432 to vibrationally enslave the goyim. It’s obvious that we must revert to Renaissance tuning and just temperament A415 to undo the cancer caused by modernity

A440 was developed by the Nazis because it is harmonically dissonant and causes disorder and chaos as it is incongruous with people’s natural frequency. A432 is the ‘natural’ tuning system.

As someone who went to college for music theory, it was hilarious hearing this
