I'm not sure how fantastical your world is but maybe nightglasses rather than sunglasses. simulates natural night vision, could have some interesting side effects if used a lot.

Film theory did an interesting video where they concluded it'd be okay since he'd only be intaking a little over time. (Not saying that's true)

Yeah they reference this in the book, it's always from him when he uses the bacteria (meaning in theory it's only his own pathogens or bacteria). He uses his crews shit that's been dried and left in Martian temperatures so it's sterilised.

They do something fun with this in the three body problem. It's amazing and makes a ton of sense but in the real world the application will probably be a lot cleaner.

I thought the proposal to call them majority world countries was interesting.

Yeah I got called a narcissist with my worst ex and then just flat out asked if they knew what it meant, I think it was a little telling they didn't actually know (not that I do either lol). It's really hard being with someone who makes you feel loved but doesn't love you and I'm so proud of you for being on the other side of it and being happy!

As everyone has said, lossless compression might not have great ratios, but if it's still worth it I recommend dwarfs as it creates read only mountable filesystems with minimal setup https://github.com/mhx/dwarfs

Doing a bg3 campaign rn and what started as a well planned attack ended with my half orc fighter picking up a crate and hitting the last enemy so hard over the head with it the crate ceased to exist. All in all, a very fun time.

Yeah, it almost looks like you'd be able to run things faster than natively on windows, which is why I'm suspicious (not that it's a lie just that the numbers lack context). It doesn't say what the numbers represent I think?

God damn I'm genuinely impressed

I quite like both these characters and wish we could have them be companions, I'm still happy with what we got though and it'd be asking a lot to add such a huge amount of stuff on top of what's already in the game.

I haven't heard anything about David Attenborough talking about plant based stuff so I won't dispute it but he did help found and fund the zoology museum in my town, one that specifically tries to educate people on the dangers of climate change and making species endangered. From what I've seen of his filming they're pretty conscious about not leaving any waste behind too.

 

Been playing through baldurs gate 3 recently as I'm sure many of you have been and started to think that githyanki are really similar to the mind flayers. Both see themselves as somewhat independent but have a greater queen they serve, have a fairly utilitarian society to say the least, possess psionic abilities that are very similar to each other and long to make an inter planary empire. Now many of these similarities can be a poetic story of how they never grew or learnt from the oppression they faced, but I think that this theory adds something great to the story as they both have a mysterious origin that is somewhat explained by this, and adds a reason to why the aboleths who know all the past don't know anything about mind flayers.

Will lemmy implement veilid? (www.theregister.com)

Recently cult of the dead cow came out with veilid, a secure decentralised way of sending encrypted information and i think this could be a huge asset to lemmy. Cult of the dead cow even mentions mastadon by name as they say this is the type of application it was designed for. If veilidchat takes off then i really hope the devs will consider it.
