i think some french aristocrats would disagree

i always found that creepypasta funny exactly because of that. bunch of atheists experiencing religious fears but with some words swapped lol

also remember to not accidentally put sugar (roughly 1kg sugar [or 2 pounds] per 1000kg cement) into a coment mixer because it will completely destroy the whole batch :(

the future is here

ironically copyright laws as they are today are cancer, maybe they should copyright copyright so that it all just eats itself and dies

Camu has addressed that in his essay on suicide -

it’s not that you distract yourself, that’s denial, and it’s not a full embrace of nothing, that’s depression (and suicide). it’s an acceptance that things are meaningless - but you as a person can never stop looking for that meaning, in fact just the search itself is what keeps you going. that’s the absurd in absurdism, searching for meaning despite knowing it doesn’t exist, finding happiness in the journey, making peace with the fact that even if you do reach some goal you’ll never feel fulfilled. and even if you become the king of the world and have everything you could ever desire - the rock is still going to roll down, you’ll feel like there’s still something missing, and you’ll need to push the rock again

at least that’s my interpretation

I think there are at least two things at play here the fact he broke her arm in a fight is ommited and is still the best place to ask questions and is still the best place to ask questions and is still the best place to ask questions and is still the best place to ask questions

awww it broke so fast :(

it’s less about intelligence and more about just not caring and being numb to ads

i used opera for around 13 years. i knew about the flaws but i was simply used to it, and as long as adblock worked i couldn’t be bothered to switch to anything else

then my laptop broke and only that happening gave me the incentive to install something else, i was starting from (close to) scratch anyway

it’ll take a lot of effort for people to abandon what they know, even if they’ll be moving towards something better

i use Zen now :) it’s nice

as a fresh linux convert all of my games work on linux thanks to steam. it even runs my ancient 2007 arcade-esque game that i was sent in an email from the dev better than windows used to

valve has put in the work for us, and now no gamer can use that as an excuse

ah you’re correct yes. i meant when they got to use the press, not invented it

the main problem with english is that they invented printing first, and then had massive changes in vowel pronunciations lmao

so the fun thing about the history of the english language is -

writing got standardised just around the same time the printing press was invented, since everyone now had access to the same resources more people learnt to read and write in a similar way. and all was well :)

…

and then something that linguists call “the great vowel shift” happened. where vowels of the oral english language just kinda, did a flip. but because of the printing press thing, you couldn’t just update the ortography… and now because of that (and many other things too, but this is a significant one) english is the way it is :)

ohhh you use those toilet and bidet combos. i only used them seperately so either way i had to get up and clean my hands first

the physical places that house AI are destroying communities and environments

the AI is being trained on stolen works of artists, writers, and honestly everything that exists online

AI when it works damages critical thinking, and uses human psychology against us

yeah i’m not excited about AI either, i used to be. but seeing the reality of what’s going on just makes me sad about how - what could’ve been a wonderful tool, and potentially, one day, even a sapient companion to humanity - it’s being used

nono, not that. a full incoming (outcoming?) load that delayed its arrival until you were already clean

and when i have access to bidets i never really use it like a jet poop blaster, i just clean my butt with my hand and then yk, wash my hands. i feel like aiming water in attack mode at a thing i can’t see would end up in me being soaked sooner rather than later

then into the toilet it goes, and grab a fresh one

you can also just rest your hand on your lap, you don’t need it to be locked on target the whole time lol

i think this is more of a

i thought i was done pooping, but after cleaning up i feel there’s more

situation

bidets are great, but they won’t fix this problem

i used to get spam calls about back pain medication, i’m 26, no back pain yet, thankfully. but they kept calling me nonetheless

thankfully i’m european so one day i cited the law to be forgotten, and once they told me “sorry we can’t :(” and i replied “well you better fix that because that’s illegal :)” they hung up immediately and never called me again :D
