Literally René Descartes, arguably one of the most important mathematicians and philosophers in history, spends most of his meditations trying to prove the existence of God. Religious people can be very logical and believe in their religion for logical reasons, even if you and I disagree with those reasons.

4·6か月前I meet all those criteria except that I’m an eight year-old dog. But nobody knows that…
Not sure if that one counts… here’s a non-cat photo
The green planet! https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0115650/
Also the first Equalizer movie with Denzel Washington: https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0455944/ Denzel is just really good in this
And the Bagdad Cafe and Diva are also great!
2·8か月前This awesome, thank you for your contribution to the open source space!! I have been looking for something like this for a while :), more powerful than apostrophe, more aesthetic than neovim. This fits the bill, thank you!
Is this a crazy coincidence or are you psychic?!? The picture in the post is from the Sorcerer’s Stone! I got sick and nostalgic, and started listening to it.
I think it’s a little shorter in reality though, compared to what audible claims here…
You’re 100% right about Rowling, she’s gone off the deep end in a bad way.
You QWERTY people…
/jk
Colemak is great though
I’ve had a pretty intense widows peak since teenagerdom and have also gotten regular compliments on my hair since teenagerdom. Coincidence? I think not!
On that note also:
- Alacritty: a minimalist Wayland GPU-accelerated terminal. Claims to be the fast currently available terminal. Also the coolest name ever. This is what I personally use, in combination with tmux.
- Kitty: a more feature rich alternative, also Wayland, GPU-accelerated, and on par with alacritty for speed. Actually starts up a little faster but uses up more resources and sacrifices in other performance metrics (in my experience).
- Foot: another minimalist Wayland alternative, but this time CPU driven. Despite this, the performance is still on par with the others. I think this is especially good for laptops and such that run on integrated graphics.
Literally the only social media I use (apart from signal, if that counts).
I didn’t even know people do this wtf… The only explanation I could fathom would be some kind of over use of the OED’s fourth definition:
- (1797) – (A body of) non-fictional books and writings published on a particular subject.
The key is “on a particular subject.” When referring to literature in general, it refers to literally any written work (including letters, advertising, etc.). I very much sympathize with your frustration…
Literally the person you are responding to
PS: also me and a whole lot of other people; just pointing out of pointless your question/statement was.
+1, it is much worse than even proof-of-work crypto though. I think AI is the bigger enemy, since at least in crypto, there are ways of developing and using it that aren’t as bad (or even at all) for the climate.
If you are from a western country there is a certain risk in going to North Korea.
Interesting question! The issue of white genocide in South Africa is particularly relevant here…
Yeah, the angle is kinda misleading… I would almost hazard that there were more people in the Obama shot.
Hmm — maybe that’s why the barista always ignores my order and little children scream when I walk by…
Idk, I turned down my heating to 15° © last winter, and was fine. And I live farther north than France, in a first-floor apartment, with pretty shitty insulation (it’s a pre-WWII building). I have great rent though.
In Germany Jan Böhmermann did an expose on Falun Gong once, and it was hilarious. Highly recommend, it’s still on YouTube.
I just gave an example of someone doing precisely that. Read Descartes first three meditations. I won’t say I agree with Descartes; I think his logic is flawed. But he does technically use logic to infer the existence of God. That’s why I used Descartes as an example.
