How long is a meter? (Only weird answers/definitions allowed)

Jump

  • if the meter is dramatic, could be 5 feet.

    • What's an important (in your opinion) skill too many people seem to lack?

    Jump

  • searching for things in the internet.

    i think LLM/PISS now has a bigger place because people dunno what to look for / what they want specifically.

    there's some legit use for LLMs, but to help you 'search' feels like you're giving away some freedom for an unknown set of weighted biases.

    • The Baldur's Gate 3 cast got a new set of pre-painted minis and—oh, oh no, oh no no no

    Jump

    • What's your favorite anime? Only tell us by quoting it and seeing if we can guess

    Jump

  • zipperman! (pronounced 'sticky fingers')

    • I got more than I bargained for, how do I fix? TW: suicide

    Jump

  • from what i read so far, i think you really believe that people can "like" someone with varying degrees. and i think it makes sense, for you to follow through with this belief.

    maybe you can convince her with this mental framing so she doesn't feel "disliked" and wouldn't be too dejected at the thought.

    i am no expert at your idea of liking and relationships, but i think it is a possible approach.

    cheers!

    • What are some good open world games/series that would be nice to take a walk thru from start to finish?

    Jump

  • not really as big as other suggestions here but walking through kamurocho has its charms.

    another one i haven't seen suggested yet is the walking simulator called death stranding. but this one needs to be a pleasant but mindful walk.

    • Life after 30 is like playing an MMO after 1000 hours

    Jump

  • you now know those classic pots you enjoyed have permanent debuffs. with the new pots, nobody has found a debuff, yet.

    • What drug do you wish you were rich in?

    Jump

  • income-based selling, here we go~!

    movie stars can pay their share and do charity work in the process.

    • What drug do you wish you were rich in?

    Jump

  • the wizard of ozempic has a nice ring to it.

    • If you could get the powers/skills of any book/game/movie/etc villain, which would be most useful?

    Jump

  • enrico pucci from stone ocean.

    ridic powers to walkback things. and he does not get flak from it. it is essentially fictional retcon.

    • A Song that was once your favorite but for whatever reason you stop listening to? And have you returned or will you ever listen to it again?

    Jump

  • puff

    i remember listening to it as a kid. makes for a really good lullaby/ relaxing song.

    when you're not a kid anymore, you see the lyrics are somewhat a downer. that, or you got more real stuff to think and worry about.

    maybe there's more covers of this now, i dunno. lp version sounds real great though.

    • What's your current petty obsession?

    Jump

  • there's nothing like a clean scrape feeling you get from a metal spoon! the bamboo ones are satisfying as well. just the right amount of firmness and bend.

    • What are your favorite and or famous thought experiments?

    Jump

  • the practicality part reminded me of the ring of gyges.

    the thought experiment kinda goes like "if a rational, intelligent being (you) own a ring that lets you do whatever you want without anybody noticing and you will not suffer any negative consequences for it, would you use it strictly for the sake of good?". this is somewhat famous/popular as it was supposedly taken as inspiration to the lord of the rings book.

    • Permanently Deleted

    Jump

  • i do this too. very good way to wind down and just rest the eyes.

    • A hacker stole data from TeleMessage, the firm that sells modified versions of Signal to the U.S. gov

    Jump

  • anyone have an idea why it has to be an israel-based firm for this sort of contracts? as opposed to a locally owned business/ gov sector, i mean. it just doesn't feel defensible enough imo.

    • What a gentleman

    Jump

  • a very stool-some post!

    • Are you able to hear your blood flow/ heartbeat in your ear?

    Jump

  • i notice it after a meal or after running.

    • Get a ThinkPad+Gentoo they said. It will be fun they said.

    Jump

  • pretty spot on with the 'competent hardware' part. i've read some people automate those on their sleep just to offset the build times.

    there's single letter argument versions on emerge, i think. the long ones are for the learning experience.

    • What are some obvious or not so obvious silver linings of Trump's disastrous policies? if any

    Jump

  • i appreciate the BuyEU and BuyCanada movements.

    also uniting both canada and eu in terms of defense is a good move, imo.

    the amount of incompetency people didn't think would exist, we now have a good example of! maybe it is not incompetency, but *retrograde thinking*.

    • What would you be willing to sacrifice for a better world?

    Jump

  • the ability to lie and "falsely claim".

    imagine everybody is stricken with that boy's wish from "liar liar"

    sure there would be a bunch of hurt feelings, but maybe the better world can compensate?
