Don’t forget the year glasses! Although those peaked in the 2000s (with a resurgence in 2020)

Are recommendations based on the “watch history” list, or just your actual watch history? I doubt they are just disregrding data they have on you just because you remove it from the ui.

I think the best of youtube has been pretty consistent, it’s just that there’s exponentially more crap (and the algorithm wants you watching crap).

For games, I do agree that most AAA games are not very good, but we are in a golden age of indie gaming. There are so many amazing games being released constantly it’s overwhelming.

I choose 1 and either learn echolocation, or get a fancy implant that does it for me.

Although if 1 is instantaneous and you have perfect control of the power, you could probably avoid others seeing you by flickering really fast. I bet there’s an optimal pulse width and frequency where you would be effectively invisible to people while still being able to see enough. A high speed camera would still catch you though.

Maybe not that unknown, but:

Vimium - lets you control the browser by keyboard. It uses vim keys for navigation, but I think it’s useful for non vim users too because it also has a mode that adds text ‘hints’ for all the links on the page so you can click them by typing (I’m not describing it well so just check it out)

Personally, panpsychism makes sense to me. Our brains are what make us thinking individuals with memories etc, but the whole universe is conscious. So after we die, we return to pure awareness (without thought or memory)

Basic scrolling feels so much better. And I don’t think it really makes a huge difference for battery life, so I always leave if at 120.

What is that ‘open secret’?

One way roads and split highways exist, but even on any typical divided road, you obviously can still drive the wrong way. Either way, you’re conpletely missing the point. That phrase is used as a way of saying that if literally everyone else disagrees with you, then it’s a lot more likely that you’re the one who is wrong.

In this case, autism really doesn’t have an “opposite”. neurodevelopment is incredibly complex, and while some aspect exist on a spectrum, others don’t. (and the traits or development patterns that do exist on a spectrum in this case exist mostly between autistic and allistic traits, not between autism and some “opposite” pattern.

And the other traits you mentioned exist on their own orthoganal axes.

I love this game. It’s simple in an elegant way, but the gameplay has quite a bit of depth. (A lot of emergent strategy)

This isn’t really accurate. Mbin does what Lemmy and Piefed do (Reddit replacement) plus what Mastodon does (twitter replacement). They’re just in different tabs of the interface. You have the option of microblogging if you want, but threads are still pretty much exactly the same compared to Lemmy or Piefed.

Sapphic Safari

I feel like the highest peak on Deinonychus Earth should be the toe claw.

I have had zero partners, and I think I’d feel really insecure with someone more experienced. Depending on the person it might not be a dealbreaker, as long as it’s not more than maybe 2 or 3. Although I know that is a very small percentage of people my age :(

≤1.5⁰ C total warming.

Not necessarily. It’s way more complicated, and there’s no clear line. If you use that definition, then coyotes and wolves become the same species, for example.

Well now it’s as if half of the books in the library are written by the parrot. The librarian doesn’t know the difference, and keeps trying to make you speak with the parrot anyway.

No reason to carry knives in public

Knives are so useful, I think carrying a multitool with multiple decently sized blades is very reasonable.
