I feel this. Working from home now but even when in the office spent a staggering amount of time just… doing nothing. Spent multiple days in the office just watching old episodes of The Computer Chronicles on youtube.
Recently praised as one of the most productive/useful members of my team and also thanked for taking so much of my time to help other teams.
Not a furry though.
I add carbon dioxide. Fizzy water best water.
I’m in the zero to ten camp for most foods, but right there with you at 47 for fatty meat of any kind. It feels disgusting in my mouth and to swallow it without gagging I need to basically cut it up with my incisors into smaller and smaller pieces until the texture disappears.
They’re absolutely being disingenuous, but I think it’s important to keep in mind that the purpose of debate is not generally to change the mind of the person you’re debating with. It’s intended to be done with an audience (or judges in a formal competitive debate), and it’s the audience that you’re trying to sway to your side.
Honestly it’s an easy trap to fall into if you enter the space without prior knowledge and taking everyone at their word. I almost fell into it years back when gamergate was just getting rolling. I don’t think anyone can reasonably deny that nepotism, preferential treatment, and paid shills are a major part of modern game marketing. But they’ll get an initial hook in based on that idea and then slow-boil you on the idea that diversity and inclusion are also part of the problem. Soon that becomes the focus and people find themselves arguing that Aloy having visible peach fuzz if you zoom the camera a quarter inch from her face in photo mode is evidence that they’re trying to erase “real women” from games.
It’s crazy.
usually, by “woke” movies people mean movies only made for the sake of being “woke”, no?
This is what people using the term really want you to think. That they’re fine with incidental/statistically correct/non-performative diversity and inclusion and are just pointing out when it happens for the sake of itself to the detriment of the quality of media.
The reality though is quite different, and people will call “woke” at almost any non-white, non-straight, or non-male character in a major role, or a non-cis character in even a passing role.
I’m sure there are many foods for which eating select raw ingredients on their own would be unappealing.
Oh. I think I get it. You put the diverging diamond on the route with less traffic where most is expected to be exiting onto the main highway or whatever. You wouldn’t put one at a place where two equally busy highways intersected.
That makes more sense.
I’ve read descriptions of how they work numerous times and cannot wrap my head around how having traffic going opposite directions cross paths does anything helpful.
Great, you’re now on the appropriate side to make the turn at the far side of the interchange, so the people making the turn don’t have to cross traffic to do so, at the cost of every car that crosses the interchange now having to cross traffic twice.
What?
How are “this person” and “a BMW driver” likely male coded while “person” and “driver” are fine? It sounds to me like you’re just assuming negative intent in others, while your own use of the same words is fine because you know what you mean.
with “this person” or “a BMW driver” as a maybe-neutral-but-also-likely-male coded qualifier.
If this is “likely male coded” how exactly do you suggest referring to other drivers in a neutral way?
I’d argue that they still exist, unless we’re just ignoring prison labour.
Women are you using a Xerox multifunction device location to this email and any attachments is intended only for the same time and consideration and I will be in the first time in the first time in the first time in the first time…
It loops on that forever.
I identify as a cis male but essentially feel the same way. The social trappings of my gender are just that. It has about as much to do with my actual identity as my hair colour does. “Factory default” because I don’t care enough to bother.
Yes, but due to lossy compression. Not because of any limitations of digital audio.
Because he has almost completely faded to obscurity. Most people under 30 probably wouldn’t recognize him at all.
Superman not being one of the characters in this image is also kind of baffling. Unless the artist believes that Superman could bear the cross.
.NET (not .NET Framework) is cross platform and can be compiled into native binaries on a variety of platforms. There is however the wrinkle of not all the libraries within .NET being supported on all platforms. Most notably, everything involving a graphical UI is Windows only.
The most well known cross platform .NET project you probably have heard about is Jellyfin.
This is really what blows my mind the most. With all this talk about how much power LLMs and diffusion models use companies are still constantly cramming it into places where it’s just running all the time passively doing things no one asked for.
Overall power use by these things would probably be cut down by an order of magnitude by just limiting it to directed, intentional use only.
