Tlaloc_Temporal,

Specifically, Creator Deity Atheist, I guess? Especially when the line between superhuman and minor deity is basically a jump rope, a strict definition of theist probably needs a higher standard; not just supernatural being, but super-dimensional?

Maybe a different usage of Atheist is used here, closer to Anti-theist. A belief that gods exist, but they’re not worth worshipping, or no being worth worshipping exists.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

Not the account for the random hotel or restaurant. “Pay with the O’Burger app!” “Collect 425 SkyPoints with a Platinum Membership!”

You don’t need an online account to buy food at a grocery, but if you had one I guarantee they’d spam the heck out of you, alongside whatever else they might do with your data.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

I mean, paying for Netflix with cash would definitely be a power move.

Utilities don’t have special offers that I know of. Check or online is very country dependent though.

I’m having a little trouble thinking of a service that would have automatic reminders but not require an account to access the service… Hotel? Something with layaway? Maybe car payments. Tuition too. Those don’t exactly seem like spurious account services though… Maybe the reminders are for pickup?

Tlaloc_Temporal,

This is the important point IMHO. This kind of feedback is exactly something I’d love to do, but I don’t think I had any idea about it before this post. Just a little popup on a new install/upgrade would be a much broader net.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

Probably a couple main hallways like a hotel, except the rooms aren’t all lined up.

Youtube Rant from a paying customer

I used to use NewPipe back in the days of yore. Then I got Youtube Premium since it bundled in Youtube Music as well which I used. But the former’s app on mobile is a shit show. Even after paying, you are asked to tip random creators, purchase merchandise[ which are shown as actual ads below videos] and join channels to access...

Tlaloc_Temporal,

There have been many an issue with YT changing notification settings, or even unsubscribing people. I don’t know if they still do that, but it used to happen to enough people at once that channels would mention checking your notification settings after seeing double digit percentage drops in base viewership.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

Curses are probably replaced with “removed” for you.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

Boost still works with some finagling with mods

Tlaloc_Temporal,

Naïve answer: A magnetic field is an electric field moving through time. There’s some matric math that equates moving electric charges to magnetic force, I think Maxwell’s equations? So it’s kind of about direction, but through time.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

There’s the bad behaviour we’re not accepting right now, like the awful rootkit. This game is basically perfect for me, and for once my friends play it too, but I’m not touching it so long as rootkit crap exists, especially on a cooperative game.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

The solution to that is to rework how rewards are calculated, maybe do some sanity checks with the server, not seize super admin control of personal hardware.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

Russia is 12th in Uranium exports, with 0.001% of global exports. Kazakhstan is first at 59%, but there’s Canada with 30%, France with 8%, and the US with 2%. There’s plenty of politically easy Uranium, especially if people start buying it over Kazakhstan.

India, Brazil, Australia, and the US are also slated to have the most Thorium resources, which could be a more significant nuclear fuel with modern and near-modern reactors.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

Boiling crab bucket?

Tlaloc_Temporal,

Skyrim could still be one of the most played games today, if the code wasn’t a steaming pile of garbage. The modding scene is already one of the largest in existence, and if it was as mutable as Minecraft it could stick around as the 3D rpg modding platform.

Instead Bethesda throws minor updates no one wants that breaks everything every few years, and then makes 4 more games using the same steaming pile of garbage that holds everything back over a decade. Fallout 4 was pretty decent, and 76 may have redeemable writing underneath the crusty shovelware coating, but then Starfield is trash in every way.

Skyrim was barely acceptable 15 years ago, but the engine isn’t capable of much more than a visual novel today, and all the decent writers have been chased away by Bethesda. Anyone writing new software would be an improvement.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

Riven Deli

Incredible

Tlaloc_Temporal,

It’s like saying ants don’t affect buildings. In the vast majority of situations it’s true, but carpenter ants can destroy wooden structures in some cimates.

The high school class is concerned about the effects of gravity, wind, rain, earthquakes, and maybe taxes on buildings, while the college+ classes can get into the effects of wood eating organisms, angry tenants, and killdozers.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

That’s fantastic! Obviously no one will ever use it.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

Would you have any idea why bazzite.gg is consistently crashing android firefox? Trying to scroll past “waydroid” makes the app reload and is taking some of my services with it, which is really weird.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

It only happens with the mobile version of the site, desktop version is fine.

The crash still happens in a private tab, as well as the in-app firefox browser on Boost. Even when disabling uBlock, still crashes.

Is this due to an old android version maybe? I’m still rocking android 9, would that limit firefox somehow? Firefox is still 125.2.0, so that’s not old yet.

Maybe it’s using too much memory. That would explain why firefox isn’t making a crash log, and might explain why my services are dying too. The issue is always with the “work with your hardware, not for it” section, which never loads and always causes a crash when it should load but never before. Perhaps there’s a big memory leak there in the mobile version?

Tlaloc_Temporal,

Or 10, whatever. The precise value is only relevant when measuring the curve of space, and they’ll still disagree with mathematicians on most of the digits.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

If we’re not calculating something useful, then why are we here and not in the library learing about the universe?

Better question: What curvature of space is necessary for the apparent value of π to be 5?

Tlaloc_Temporal,

Not to mention that pineapples are far tastier than any raspberry I’ve ever had. Most recipes dilute the pineapple to avoid overpowering the other flavors, while raspberries often need assistance from citrus to really shine.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

And then you find a tread of a dozen people apl having exactly the same obscure problem, with the only advice being “update drivers”.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

That’s going to be less efficient per watt though, plant’s are green because they don’t use the green light, hence red+blue grow lights.

Not all plants reflect the same range of wavelengths though, and different plants will use different wavelengths to grow. This is basically an exercise in finding which wavelengths we can drop without significantly slowing growth for each plant.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

That article just throws out a number. I found a couple papers that give green light absorption numbers between 50% (for lettuce) and 90% (for broadleaf evergreens). Sadly they are paywalled.

The paper that article links talks about pairs of absorption peaks targeting steep portions of the available light spectrum, as a method of reducing power noise in changing conditions. The reason for avoiding green light here would be because the spectrum is too flat around green: there are no pits to help stabilize incoming power. Despite blue light having nearly identical intensity, green plants strongly absorb blue light, supposedly because there’s a steep drop off in intensity moving into purple and ultraviolet light. I don’t think this explains the decently strong red light absorption though, as the terrestrial spectrum is still rather flat there.

I’d argue this is more a holdover from competition with simpler purple Haloarchaea in ancient oceans, the Purple Earth Hypothesis . Perhaps this avoidance of the otherwise strong green light is what allowed green plants to develop complex structures and those complex structures need much smoother power input, precluding the development of green light photosynthesis. Also possible is that developing new photosynthetic pathways is just too difficult, and green plants are too specialized to try.

Some of those specializations may be the use of green light to direct non-photisynthetic processes, detailed in this paper, which is also more directly relevant to the original point. Some green light increases yields significantly, despite maybe not promoting photosynthesis as efficiently per watt as red & blue light.
