Or you play a system that has build a world where the age of exploration, king Arthur, the Russian revolution, the hanseatic league, the itialian city states, the spanish inquisition, and much more are all happening at the same time.

7th Sea has some wacky world building, but it stays realistic enough to be quite believable and coherent.

Also very relevant is the missiles in use. Those certainly are not from the 70s.

My brain was wondering how a video of only 0.2 seconds would work. Can you even say an entire word in that time? And how is that enough to explain all of Super Mario Bros. 3 TAS?

I was kind of disappointed to see the video lenght makes sense, and my brain was just not awake yet.

The RHEL 7 book from OP is most certainly still relevant. For example, my department at work has not managed to switch over to the brand new RHEL 8 machines just yet.

When life gives you oranges…

Are diapers clothing? If not, then you are technically allowed to wear diapers containing urine, vomit, or blood.

Nah, too unlikely nobody will die, so it’ll never catch on.

Cats that don’t know any better can live inside just fine. But I adopted a cat from the shelter that was only allowed to go to a place where he can go outside. And he REALLY wanted to go outside. Usually you have to keep them inside for at least 6 weeks to accomodate before you allow them outside. He escaped through a tiny bathroom window after 2 weeks. And he came back the next morning wondering why I was stressed out. Since then I let him outside. Since then, he also became a lot more chill inside. No whirlstorm on my bed at 4 in the morning, no attacking my feet out of boredom, and he generally seems a lot calmer. Keeping him inside would drive both him and me crazy. So do we have to euthanise all cats like him? Cause locking them up inside is just cruel.

Making an actual episode where there is a race that talks like this would be the perfect way to kill it off. Just imagine Picard attempting to communicate with this race in their own language. No kid will survive the cringe.

For the people unaware why EU4 is hard:

Take risk (the board game)

Now split the provinces till you have more than 3000 provinces. Then add variables to each region for culture, claims, trade good, trade power, buildings, development (in 3 aspects), the region they are part of, the trade node they are part of, religion, autonomy, unrest, devestation, temporary effects, and many many more.

Do the same for armies.

Add complicated politics, with royal marriages that allow countries to inherit other countries, war goals, casus belli requirements, etc.

Add colonization mechanics.

Add government mechanics (with many different variants for different governments ofcourse).

Add a compex Holy Roman Empire system and a complex system for the Chinese empire.

Add mechnics for different religions, including a pope and a religous war that can bring all of europe into a giant war.

Add a pool of diplomats, merchants, generals, and missionaries.

Now realise that I haven’t played the game for ages, and this was just mechanics from the top of my head, and without what they added in the last few years.

EU4 is not hard due to required reflexes, muscle memory learning, or rythm feeling. It is just a lot of things to learn and to keep track of, woven into a super complicated simulation.

Just like orbiting something. Satellites are constantly just falling back to earth, but with enough grace to always miss earth. I bet satellites would be great cyclists!

The puzzling part is fun, because you are constantly learning new ways to use your body. See how to balance, how to move around, etc. I have found that dancing gives a similar learning challenge. Especially the more free-form dances like salsa and bachata. It’s fun learning new moves every week during the lesson, and then try to see if you can put them to practise during a party.

And don’t worry about beeing to stiff. If you can balance around boulders, you can get your body to move around for dancing too. Just takes some practise. I currently do both, and feel like I lack dexterity more for the climbing than for the dancing.

And unlike most of the hand-friendly options mentioned already, you do have to use your hands and arms a lot. Just not in a way that puts any stress on them.

It is a matter of responsibility. If you can log into any lemmy instance or mastodon server with the same account, then which server takes responsibility for your actions in the fediverse?

I have seen instances be defederate from because of their lax account creation requirements, or because of harrasment from users from a specific instance.

If an account can log into any instance, then who is responsible for banning the account?

Since the speed is infinite, the wavelength is always zero, no matter the frequency. But a wavelength of zero at infinite speed means an infinite number of waves hit the eye in any constant amount of time. Hence, and infinite amount of energy hits the eye at practically the same moment. But assuming your eye (and all of the universe) does not incinerate instantly, you will not be able to see the difference between red and blue, since they are perceived to have the same wavelength (zero). So yeah, technically you no longer have blue/redshifting.

Math and physics can also help to solve <Insert popular sociological problem>. So this template works fine as is for math and physics.

My company made working from home a really bad idea. Better to work locally, since home is a on slow network drive.

Nope, nevermind. It was just a ruse to get me to open the door.

My physiotherapist stuck a needle in my muscles, instantly relaxing them. That was certainly not a placebo effect, as I didn’t really feel the needle, till the muscle suddenly spasmed into a relaxed state.

He only did it in two or three spots, so it’s not acupuncture in the sense that you become the pincushion for a quilting enthousiast. But it certainly is sticking needles into your skin for a medical reason. The proper medical term is dry needling.

According to wikipedia, Noord Brabant and Drenthe. My “research” hasn’t gone any deeper than that.
