  • Heh, nice try at having standards but since it is impossible to not harm anything then obviously possibly harming for pleasure is fine. Checkmate loser.

    Now I am going to depict you as the crying wojack and me as the handsome wojack.

  • posted on social media developed for free using a standard specced out for free running on servers people are allowing you to use for free...

    Whether or not current models are sustainable is beside the point. Obviously they aren't, ad blockers weren't developed for shits and giggles but to stop increasingly intrusive practices.

  • I'm mostly joking. Generally the kids impress me and there's stuff my peers and I did that I'm frankly shocked we survived, not all of us came through intact. Shit I'm on lemmy, I've probably got some screws loose.

    But I do think teen years are a good time of life to test some boundaries and break some rules. If you're not hurting other people even a bit of destructive mischief is ok imho, you gotta learn how to disobey and why sometimes you shouldn't.

  • So many tedious recommendations when the answer is obviously heaven's vault.

    It's dogshit in almost every way. Even moving around the world feels like pouring salt into your eyes. I hate almost every single thing, the protagonist, the pace, the awful vehicle sections to travel. But it's something you should play, or perhaps experience.

    It's an archeological translation game and there are multiple moments of "Ok so maybe that actually means font of life not mother goddess, but that would mean this means artificial god which would mean that the extinction event was actually transcendence and holy shit..."

  • I hate this shit. If anything the youths are milquetoast obedient wet rags.

    Yet somehow there's still, despite their puritanical and anxiety ridden dispositions, concern that they're out mugging grannies every weekend.

    It's extremely tedious.

    Also break laws and imbibe dubious substances you limp noodles.

  • opal is what happens when spheres of particular size pack in grain structures of particular size.

    you get like interference making diffraction patterns, but not monochrome because pseudo (meta?) crytals of balls modify the ball modes. you can make opal from latex balls, it's just not hard or as pretty. .

    Basically opal is just the earth playing with its balls.

  • There is no magic to it. You can sharpen a knife with a brick if you're careful.

    The result and rate are determined by a few things:

    • Harder, more jagged grits will cut the steel of the knife away faster
    • The final edge can't be (much) smoother than the grit used on it last.

    It's just like sanding wood or filing your nails. Usually we start course because it would take ages to wear in the approximate shape using finer materials, then we go progressively finer to smooth out the scratches left by the step prior.

    Finer media is typically more expensive too, as fine stuff contaminating course stuff isn't a huge issue but the opposite isn't true. So we want to not blow our budget wearing away all nice stones.

    Personally I would not try removing chips with anything finer than 1k, and depending on the size and the hardness of the steel might drop to 300 or so. you can, but it will take hours instead of minutes.

  • vegan theory club defedded world and while I miss some content the quality of commentator went up dramatically. Yeah I see some stuff I disagree with and I'm sure I bother some people too, sometimes accidentally ;) but that place is a fucking cesspit.

  • I downvote because I disagree.

    This is why downvotes are mostly spam lmao. They have more to do with how popular something this than the substance of the post. It is also impossible to distinguish good faith criticism and reactionary suppression.

  • You mistake conflict for confusion.

    If someone's terminal values are opposed to yours you cannot convince them. Sometimes people change core opinions slowly, but almost always by interaction with people close to them (i.e. where they have conflicting drives to uphold or reject an opinion). Internet debate me bro shit is pointless and just poisons spaces.

  • Let us return to the proud tradition of walled cities.

    Aside from the obvious don't zone floodplains I don't really know what we're supposed to do about this. Australians significantly resist densification of cities and don't plan cities well at all which reenforces that resistance. We're absurdly highly urbanised but in a sprawling manner.

    We can't really reduce bushfire danger much without massive deforestation so let's not do that. It's not really plausible to like build underground and stuff in the regions/rural areas.

    There's stuff we can procedurally get better at but floods and fires aren't like earthquakes where you can build structures that are basically untouched.

    Are we just fucked?

  • Basically no Australian wildlife can or will seriously hurt you. There are some snakes which if you try really hard you might run into (for reference I've had 2 encounters with dangerous snakes in my life), a couple of spiders one of which is extremely common but not at all aggressive and does not roam, kangaroos if you hit them with your car you will be fucked up, emus and cassowaries if you go where they are and try really hard to make them angry, crocs up north if you approach them can be dangerous, box jellies up north will kill you if you swim when they're about, dingoes in the centre are wild dogs so if they're hungry they could harm you.

    you can go bush walking with no plan and just some water. Wander off the track all day, and your biggest danger is getting lost. Avoid that and it's dehydration or falls. If you stick your hands into dark crevices and overturn bark and stuff I guess spiders and snakes?
