FASCIST!

If you just wing it and make some blunders in the beginning your opponent will underestimate you and will end up in a much more unique mid game which is more like outside of their learned theory.

This is unironicly my natural playstyle. As long as i keep my head cool while trying half baked plans seeing what sticks, i am basically sacrificing material to create a more chaotic board state, priming overconfidence to make a bigger blunder than all my early ones combined.

Spatial computing is arguably incredibly useful but all depends if people feel comfortable wearing it for extended amounts of time.

The first one was a cool tech demo, i suppose this one will be more an early adopter version but i don’t see the tech being mature enough to have people stop using a laptop.

This is beyond the scope of the original context but the fundamental question here would be at what point can people provide consent? Currently this depends on a legal per country basis. What constitutes “a minor” is not the same everywhere.

The psychological argument would be whether or not a person is mature enough to fully understand their actions and potential consequences and this is not the same for everyone. People develop maturity - or aspects of maturity at their own pace and at some point will demand or experiment with autonomy and freedom to make their own choices. To deny that reality and instead use oppression/lack of sex education is counterproductive and leads to more dangerous scenarios.

If you want to put it that way:

I made a very hard line when the public may become part of the act. But at that point everyone should be ID’d and over the legal age.

I am sort of saying lower the age to give consent to watch/observe public events that include sex elements, like a panel for an adult show. (Its not like teens don’t know how to use the internet, they probable have watched hazbin hotel if they are at the panel)

Actual kids, who should not be unsupervised on the internet are completely out the scope. You cannot give consent for something you don’t fully understand.

If you want to talk age of consent to fuck i am more in favor of a sliding window of acceptable within their age group. Not because they should have sex but because we should respect that teens do experience sexuality and the desire to experiment with that.

Works on mine.

Also we should stop acting so prudent about sex in regards to teenagers.

If the attendees are not expecting to be involved in a sexual activity and a teenager is old enough to experience sexuality, acts mature, otherwise walk around without supervision and makes their own choices to visit such panel. What harm is their really?

With actual kids there is no doubt, they stick out where they don’t belong.

I would draw the line, i would look at wether or not there is doubt, and give benefit of the doubt to whoever acts mature.

You are technically correct. Many critters know as insects are their own group.

However in reality it has much more to do with human classification then actual nature. Same with what we call “fruit” so i al not sure what people want me to use to refer to the entire class of creepy crawlers.

Termites where for a while considered a different class but now there seen as a subclass of cockroaches and those are insects. Springtails where long considered insects but now they are their own class.

35mm without the legs is freaking huge. And as an arachnophobe you can’t tell me the legs don’t count towards its intimidation.

I knew i recognized that output.

Mine is actually also made with the help of Chatgpt but manually refined and tested.

Another example, which i can personally verify has been working fine for months. It works a bit different to the above, it downloads the latests 2* vids that are not already downloaded and runs once every hour with cron. I also attempted to filter out live vids and shorts.

Channels i am “subscribed” too are stored in a single text file, it also uses the avc1 codec because i found p9 and p10 had issues with the jellyfin client on my tv.

looks like this, i added categories but i don’t actually use them in the script besides putting them in a variable, lol. Vid-limit is how many of the latests vids it should look at to download. The original reason i implemented that is so i could selectively download a bulk of latests vids if i wanted to.

Thing that everyone joked about (to mentally handle the horror) that was definitely going to really happen, happens.

Better late then never to stop it from happening I guess.

No, they hide instead.

In small corners, like a small hole in the stonewall next to your wall attached reading lamp.

So then when you’re finally asleep you hear like this scratch noise. So you turn on your lamp and you see that it’s little bit of wall dust coming off it.

And at first you’re like huh so you look a little closer and you see that it’s coming from that little hole in the wall.

AND THEN SOME LEGS JUMP OUT OF THERE.

Before you know it you stand at the furthest other corner of the room.

A full spider has pulled itself from the hole, and it stares at you, menacingly.

You can barely breathe, but deep down you know that the creature can’t help it. It is not a monster, and neither are you.

You were taught the most sensible thing is to put such insects outside. So you sneak downstairs trying to find a glass and piece of paper to capture it in.

So then you, a brave knight, armed with a glass faces the beast.

And as you hold your arm in the vicinity of its claws. You realize:

The size of this beast is far bigger than the diameter of the opening of this glass.

You run to the hallway you are truly losing it. But then you hear another sound.

Your dad appears from nowhere, and he asks what are my troubles.

SO I SHOW MY HERO TO THE BEAST

AND HE FUCKING LEGS IT. EVEN MORE A COWARD THAN YOU. Goes to bed and leaves you to it remarking its large size.

That is what wolfspiders do. They don’t just destroy your confidence, they show that you came from nothing and will remain it till the day you become food.

That is what wolfspiders do.

Also they can jump 2m straight, thankgod i only found out as it jumped from glass 2# into the darkness of the garden as i you realize they could have jumped into your face at any point of time back in the room. You were never safe.

That is what Wolfspiders do.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

“Stop destroying the planet, stop ignoring us”

Political leaders: I have no choice other then taking a strong stance against these criminals and their absurd demands.

Understandable, have a good day.

Firefox is sustained (biggest funder) by google who needs artificial competitions to not be labeled a monopoly.

Its still the best browser i can think off that isn’t chromium but i would recommend staying skeptical.

Don’t forget time dilution.

They who master the skill of controlled time dilation will quickly ascend to rule the universe… or so i was told in a dream.

Ops focus on a singular “nicely packaged “ egg made me unable to consider anything else then bird eggs.

I was so confused by your comment, i had to look it up.

To be fair the scientific ideal is to one day recover it to be placed in a museum.

I might and the answer is for science and curiosity.

There is a lot you can learn from simulations, this is on premise incredibly valuable for researchers and industry. I bet Facebook and twitter have been doing this internally for years.

What i don’t understand is why its marketed as private social media rather then a a cool simulation research tool
