it is So Fucking Slow. i can’t use it for more than 10 minutes without it slowing down to the point of unusability
Ah, I see your point now. I still think it’d sell the wrong idea since it just causes centralization, which is a problem that platforms already deal with, but now I see its potential usefulness as well
But this isn’t the case with “usual” social media stuff either, why should it be the case with the fediverse?
Also just like, they are decentralized. You can’t tell dozens upon dozens of different people to “hey, make ur instance’s design follow these arbitrary rules thanks”
Same case as Fakefunk, I have my own fictional world set in the year 2500. I don’t really care about how the world is doing, but there’s this small, human-made island operated by sentient machines that is what i call a “utopia in the works”. They’re trying to make a utopia, but they’re not quite there yet. One thing I do know about this world is that “zero world countries” are now a thing, that is, countries that reach post-scarcity. The island this worldbuilding is focused on is one of those.
My friends have called them the intersection of transhumanism and buddhism, and solarpunk with a cyberpunk aesthetic
you can also say that a dozen is a group of 1100, does that mean that a dozen is a reference to binary? of course not, that doesn’t make any sense. just because you can use decimal digits to write a definition doesn’t make it a decimal-centric definition. duodecimal is decimal-centric not because of its definition, but because it’s literally “two(duo) ten(decimal)”
there are a lot of ways to count to 12 with only two hands. some with only one hand
The problem with “duodecimal” is that it’s in base ten, which makes it unfitting for a community centered around replacing base ten
Didn’t know the pale king liked to read
Not just technology, I can’t remember anything I learnt on school besides like basic mathematical operations. Everything else they tried to explain I had to learn on internet
This. This so fucking much. It looks so weird to see so many different programs named basically the same
Not gonna lie, I generally hate music that doesn’t have this kind of repetition, but music that overuses repetition also sucks. To me, there is something like “too creative”, and music without this tends to have it
Yeah. I think it comes from different experiences and different associations with those experiences
Here’s what I think The Funny here actually is: It subverts the expectation of the reader up front (as long as they are familiar with «facts and easter eggs» images that use this similar format) by showing them this format, and then presenting them with something beyond blatantly obvious
Here’s what my brain associated this meme with: Yknow that time when everyone and their mother used facebook? There were pages that kept posting fun facts about marvel and they looked exactly like this. I think this image is making fun of them running out of actual facts
Intel Core, but it’s the core of a star
I clicked on this with a “this really shouldn’t use that word” mindset, and was very pleasantly surprised
Ah, mycelium fungus, like my favorite plant, the trunk tree
Is there a way to input dozenal numbers? It can output them but i cant seem to input them
