I'm so glad I deleted my Instagram account.

I kiss it while I'm eating it, does that count?

All your amazing astrophotography and yet that's the one you choose as your best? :p

I'm on an Mbin instance, which federates with Lemmy but I guess doesn't get recognized as a proper Lemmy link. These two links to the actual community instances should work: first post second post

Linux doesn't actually need any functional components to run; if you put on enough pairs of programming socks and take some psychedelics you can simply sit in front of a blank screen and hallucinate a fully functional Linux distro!

If you upgraded an existing installation of Win 10 you should be fine, AFAIK the internet requirement is only for installing a new copy of Win 11.

Of course, just make sure you paint a penguin on the side first.

Best by the numbers, this post on programmer_humor.

Best in my opinion has gotta be Logsday. I literally went outside and lit an edited calendar on fire for that one. :D

I like the comments here a lot more. Reddit's comment ranking algorithm mostly prioritized highly upvoted comments, so the top comments on every thread would be the earliest ones, and anything much later would be lost in the sea. Here new comments get ranked higher than older ones even if they have fewer upvotes, which gives them a lot more visibility.

Windows will sooner kill itself than learn how to play nice with others.

Brb making a necklace of crystal oscillators to heal and balance my body. (And yeah 32768 Hz is a pretty common value for oscillators; interesting the crystal pseudoscientists use it too).

If you're not talking nicely to the plants, you're not a vegan in spirit.

Crystals do have their own energetic signature frequencies though! Quartz is a good example; we use its piezoelectric and resonance properties to make cheap but relatively accurate oscillators.

Linux System Requirements:

Sometimes knocking an idea down is justified, especially in the case of astrology.

I think I'm too young for Facebook, and I deleted my Instagram account about a month ago. I was primarily using it to socialize with friends, but decided that wasn't worth the privacy cost.

It's a good plot for a book, but as for actually happening in the real world haha no way.

That comes out to a speed of 7.5km/h or 4.7mph, barely above a brisk walk. Good to know if I ever need to outrun humanoid robots it won't be hard. (The self-driving cars are another matter).

Robots are a lot more energy efficient than humans. Human muscles are around 25% efficient while robotic motors can be >90%. However they lose massively in energy density. 100 grams of carbs has 1.7 MJ of energy, which is equivalent to 2-3kg of lithium batteries. A human can run for hours on a kg of calorie dense foods, while a robot would need a bulky battery or constant battery swaps/recharges.

I think it's a pretty good response. It communicates that you have a crush on them, while giving them a simple way to tell you whether it's reciprocated, and implying that you care what they think.

Of course you could just be direct, but that can be hard, and this way is pretty funny too.
