Be Cool Even When Really Big Goblins Casually Drop Acid
  • A water bear being 1/10th of the edge of a coin doesn't seem right, that'd be like 0.2mm and probably still visible. Did you miss a stage?

    edit I'm totally wrong, apparently they can be up to 0.5mm. Crazy. Althought they're much smaller when young

  • About the us election
  • Maybe be mad at the party who keeps putting forward shitty candidates rather than the people who are fed up with the shitty candidates? You can't have it both ways, saying every vote matters, and then also say but you have to vote for our old ghoul or you get someone worse. That's the establishment propaganda that thankfully some people have grown out of. I'm not even American but by God reading all this fucking biden apologist discourse has me feeling so fucking sorry for your country. Yeah trump is bad bit at least he owns who he is. Voting biden at this point would feel like a fucking moral failing. I'd probably still do it bit I'd never stop complaining about it and fuck all of you who expect people not to complain. Your system is blatantly screwing you over and you're just like "thank you more please. Please not the trump again"

  • Telehealth executives accused of $100m Adderall scheme
  • Plenty of people are addicted to caffeine too. Maybe we should stop with all the drug addict discourse altogether, because it's dumb and counter productive and doesn't get people the help they really need. Lots of people can use drugs responsibly and lots of people can spiral into harmful lifestyle situations without ever touching pills or powders.

  • Seriously try one of the air remotes. It's like a gyroscopic remote and it works way better than I ever thought it would for controlling a mouse cursor. They're very cheap too, the one I have cost 30bucks, it can sense if you have it on the keyboard side or the media side facing up and disables the other sides buttons, deactivatable backlight on the buttons, and rechargeable battery, although it lasts for weeks without charging.

  • Customer service
  • Or get a little air mouse remote for $20 on Amazon. This is what i use for controlling my pc when its hooked up to the TV and it's so unbelievably good, even has a full keyboard on the back if I want to search something, full range of media controls on the front, and just point it and click to control the mouse cursor. Gamechanger.

  • Eat Up Martha
  • If you're legitimately interested you should check out /gonewildaudio (on reddit but there's a lemmy community with a bot that reposts all the posts). Its all user submitted short (10-30 minute) scripts and then other users will record themselves reading the scripts, and I was honestly blown away by the quality and content. Not something I do all the time but there's so many niche scenario scripts and the voice over recordings are really well done in the 3 or 4 that I've listened to.

  • Do you play non-steam games?
  • I've installed many non steam games on my deck, but the vast majority were ones I already had on my PC. I've found the easiest way by far is just to copy over the installed game folder to the steamdeck via ftp and add to steam. Only one game I've had to do any fiddling with so far, and that was just installing vcc studio dependencies with wine tricks. Other than that everything has worked with zero fiddling.

  • Completely normal- ai rule
  • The ai has done a pretty good job damaging its own reputation. This one is fake, but there's lots of real examples of it saying absurd things. Like to drink urine when you have a kidney stone, or put glue in your pizza cheese to stop it from sliding off the pizza.

  • question about "synchronic displacement" in TNG 'Times Arrow'

    So in this episode they go into a cave, and can read some sort of energy field, as well as Troi having a sense that there are lifeforms present. Geordie explains that the people must be displaced in time, but only by a few milliseconds. If that's true, how is there not overlap? Say the people are a few milliseconds ahead of the enterprise when they arrive, shouldn't they appear a few milliseconds later, as they still would have had to be 'present' during that time? I don't understand how they would be consistently invisible if time is a dimension like space that can be traveled through. Some past (or future) version of them would be present regardless of the desynchronization would they not?

    Please if anyone could help me understand or shed some light on this I'd appreciate it.
