Do you have some kind of subconscious awareness of interests you already have or know you eventually will take deep dives into at some point in life?
  • Not in any way, no. Our brains can't predict what we will be interested in or good at.

    But we do have predispositions. If you are able to focus intently on things, or are creative, or are more athletic, which are reflected in neuronal connectivity, you might be more interested in more detail-oriented or creative or athletic hobbies.

  • Good luck speed cameras
  • They'll get the picture in the fine letter so make sure you give them your best one-finger salute

  • CNC Kitchen Made 3D Printing Filament from Plastic Cutlery
  • Neat, I can make some nice plastic cutlery with that filament!

  • Save
  • Speaking of water... How often do you actually see a drop of water shaped like a drop? Almost never

  • Is the saying, "The internet's written in ink, not pencil" accurate?
  • I went looking for old forums I used to frequent, and while the site itself is on the internet archive most of the conversations are lost. Only one or two snapshots a year

  • what is a skill you wish you had, and why?
  • I wish I was a better piano player

    I'm a competent musician in many instruments but I could never get the hang of using my left hand for accompaniment

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • If you want to appear more mature, start capitalizing your sentences and using less exclamation points. Some are fine, but never more than one to a sentence.

  • Abandoned babies found decomposing in Gaza hospital weeks after it was evacuated
  • I'm not. I'm old, and have been following this conflict for decades. Hamas very often targets innocent Israelis in their attacks, and hides behind innocent Palestinians to make it difficult for Israel to target them. You can argue about whether it is justifiable or not that they do this, but there are many, many sources that they do.

  • WHITE WHALE HOLY GRAIL
  • The lady wielding the wheat stalk has three hands

  • Abandoned babies found decomposing in Gaza hospital weeks after it was evacuated
  • There were many innocent civilians living in Nazi Germany, and a lot of them died in the interest of stopping them.

    We try to minimize innocent deaths in war, but when the group you are fighting against uses hospitals as military locations and innocent people as human shields, it becomes difficult to do so

  • Quizzle – Can you guess the word in fewer than twenty questions?
  • Very cool! Does this use LLMs at all, or is it more traditional programming?

  • What's the deal with the private trackers?
  • The site lists 4 torrents and none of them are mine. I assume this is because my ISP assigned a dynamic IP address

  • Belief in COVID-19 related conspiracy theories around the globe: A systematic review - ScienceDirect
  • ...what?

    Science direct just hosts articles from other journals. Its a part of Elsevier

  • For Leftists: What happens when a content creator has a questionable guest on?
  • It would be a problem if he was brought on to talk about COVID being a hoax. It's not really a problem if he's talking about something entirely different and not problematic

  • New WD40 formular just dropped
  • Just from reading the title I was expecting a seasonal pumpkin spice WD40 joke

    But this is also acceptable

  • More people are playing Skyrim on Steam than Starfield
  • It's not really fine if you like roaming around, though. There isn't much of an open world, just many many small worlds with hand-placed POIs on some of them and procedurally generated stuff on the rest

    I'm having a good time with the game but it definitely doesn't scratch the same itch

  • oh, danny boy...
  • This belongs in !dadjokes@lemmy.world

  • shadowbanned
  • Probably not. Just make a new account and fly under the radar for a while. If you keep getting banned on different accounts they will IP ban you.

    Technically it's against the rules to make a new account to avoid a ban, but like I said, they probably won't look into it unless you give them a reason to

  • Feature request: allow for different "Post Type Background Colors" for each type, so you can tell at a glance what will happen if you tap on a post

    I would love to be able to set the post type background of images or videos yo a different color than links. I often accidentally open a YouTube video I don't want to open because I think it's actually an image or a link.

    Bug: replying to long comment causes keyboard to obscure response box

    When comments are very long, it can push the text box for replies towards the bottom of the screen. If the keyboard is pulled up to add to the text box, it will cover the box and make it so the response cannot be seen unless the keyboard is dismissed.

    Possible solution: minimize the original comment on tap, or allow scrolling until the reply text box is at the top of the screen
