I definitely like seeing Picaresque up here, fantastic album.

Hey if you like that, well I can’t really explain why this album is similar, but try “England Keep my Bones” by Frank Turner.

Hey, you know birds aren’t real, right?

Bobsledding.

“Feel the horses, feel the rhyme, get on up, it’s bobsled time”

Underrated comment.

Attacked? No this post alone doesn’t make me feel attacked.

Though it’s about weekly that we see a post saying essentially “there’s no reason anyone should still be using Plex…”, or “jellyfin is superior to plex because of x and y”. And honestly, it’s tiring and it feels forced. Like if jellyfin were so perfect, would it really need this many posts propping it up?

Anyway, what bugged me about this post was the level of smugness. “Does Plex even count as self hosting?”, “is this really in the spirit of the community?”… God damn, that sounds like the least bearable person in the homeowners association.

I’m going to shame people for using something that used to work well. This will help me by making me feel superior, and it will help others by shaming them. What a good idea I’ve had!

Nice try doggo, but I was warned about this.

On the Internet you never know if someone is really a dog…

The new Tekken looks good.

It’s so funny whenever I hear that acronym used professionally.

“Oh yeah? you’re pretty psyched about your new enterprise grade POS system? Sounds awesome…”

Sure, it means point of sale, but it only means that in this one context…

I love mixing idioms, that one in particular is fun to use.

I’m also a fan of “throw caution to the wolves”.

You’ve just revolutionized green energy! I expect your Nobel Prize is in the mail!

Better start working on a speech!

I love how many responses in this thread boil down to “I don’t know, maybe try being a mature and emotionally balanced adult?”

That’s such a fantastic conclusion: it’s the banana’s base chemical volatility you really need to be afraid of!

Love it.

That’s exactly it. There are a lot of ways to design a fixed wing aircraft, a lot of viable wing configurations. But this particular configuration dominates most of aviation because there’s a huge advantage to having all your control surfaces way in back on the end of a long lever.

There are notable exceptions of course, flying wings like the B2 stealth bomber, delta wings with canards like the Erofighter. But both of those configurations are certainly less aerodynamically stable than the traditional arrangement. You really need to have some very important reason to design a plane differently, in those previous examples the reasons are stealth and speed.

It’s hard to decide which simple machine system to invest in. DeWalt makes a great lever and inclined plane, but I hear Milwaukee’s wheel-and-axles are really good.

I think Randall really gets my life.

Amazing

That’s fair. Nearly everything at that scale is up for interpretation. I find that nothing in physics works the way it intuitively seems like it should.

Get it just right, and yeah, lower latency. It’s not likely to change the bandwidth though. 😉

"refractive index”

Not to split hairs here, but that’s also kind of the same thing.

Like what does “refractive” mean? Does it mean moving slower or bouncing around?

Exactly, at least that’s my understanding!
