Memes@lemmy.ml•Genocide is an American TraditionEnglish
272·2 months agoThr USA killed way way way more than 10 million native americans. We will never know the true scale of the genecide because the majority of it was done through disease. Early settlers would deliberately trade goods contaminated with several european diseases that the natives had little or no resistance to, including small pox and several others I can’t remember off the top of my head. Explorers moving west described “virgin” country untouched by man, beautiful and bountiful, but they were wrong. What they saw was an environment shaped over thousands of years by humans for humans that once supported hundreds of millions of native americans, who were mostly dead by the time european explorers got there. The genecide everyone knows about was really just the end, picking off the stragglers. That was bad enough that it’s whitewashed in public schooling, but they don’t even teach the history of the biological warfare that did the vast majority of the work. In many ways the americas still bear the gaping wounds of european contact today. This place is built on a foundation genocide.

I wonder if it’s really the swearing. It would be interesting to compare to nonverbal grunting or groaning around the same intensity. Something similarly emotive and forceful but without the underlying language meaning.
You’re not going to believe this. I already have both. What do I get? Super audhd?

No it’s not. You can tell you’re rotating using internal sensors alone, unlike linear velocity. Just because the magnitude of the earth’s rotation is small compared to our biological sense of rotation doesn’t mean rotation is relative the same way linear motion is. You’re drawing a false connection between the fact that you can’t tell if you’re accelerating under gravity or not to rotation, which is fundamentally different. Also you don’t rotate with units of linear velocity, but with units of angular velocity. The earth rotates at about 0.0042 deg/s, which is very slow. You rotate many orders of magnitude faster than that rolling over in bed or turning your head.

The universe having a nonzero total angular momentum does indeed imply an axis of rotation, but our theories don’t explicitly rule that out. Given the size of the universe, the rate of rotation would be inconceivably small compared to the earth, and extremely difficult to measure. Most of my problem with your statements on this point is you’re assuming current hypotheses to be confirmed fact set in stone, which is not true.

BoycottUnitedStates@europe.pub•Panic Spreading Through GOP After DOJ Reveals Epstein Files Are More Damaging For Trump Than They Thought: ReportEnglish
7·3 months agoLol you think Trump would protect anyone but himself? The guy famous for refusing to pay people who do work for him? The guy who has betrayed everyone he felt like he could benefit from betraying, even a little tiny bit? He doesn’t give a fuck who else would be implicated. He would probably murder Melania on live television to get out of it if he thought it would work.

Give overspecialized parties a chance. The severe skill gaps create unique and interesting challenges for the players and forces them to interact with your NPCs in ways a well rounded party wouldn’t to overcome those gaps.

Memes@lemmy.ml•Don't Even Get Me Started On The Usefulness Of Learning How To Find The Area Of A TrapezoidEnglish
4·7 months agoHonestly I think engineers of all kinds can benefit from more study of biological systems. As an engineer myself, I find there’s a lot of inspiration to be gained by looking at life and understanding how it works. My primary work is controls and learning that biological muscle operates as bang bang control was mindblowing. Like look at the agility and complexity achieved by essentially a fuck load of on off actuators. It shows how far you can go with extremely simple methods and honestly helped me chill the fuck out about making everything perfect.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Ramsay's kitchen nightmares, but for software developmentEnglish
31·8 months agoIt baffles me that medical device manufacturers use windows for fucking anything. You’d think just the licensing cost would push them away, but it being hot garbage for embedded software should have been enough. It’s amazing any medical device certification process would allow them to use it at all, with the notorious unreliability and not giving a shit what you think about updates. People could die because of a fucking windows update at the wrong time.

Can they run 24 hours too? I can’t tell you how fucking annoying it is doing something fun with friends that goes late and have to leave at god damn 11pm or some shit so I can catch the last fucking train for the night or have to sleep over. Also cars specifically for people who need to move large objects or all their worldly possessions or something.
