Depends on how you define “reasonable”. Personally I interpret it as “perfectly rational”, and I believe that a perfectly rational person with imperfect knowledge would acknowledge that ghosts cannot be 100% disproven, and as such there is a chance that they exist. And once you’re past that threshold, belief doesn’t have to conflict with rational thinking.

Again, personally; I believe they don’t exist. Otherwise we’d be seeing a lot fewer Victorian era ghosts, and a lot more Neolithic ectoplasm. Also, which requirements in terms of species are there for a haunting to commence? Can a horse become a ghost? What about a gorilla? Or a Neanderthal? Seems weird that only homo sapients get to play around with rusty chains and linen…

I will concede that it was simpler. But definitely not easier.

I do. The soft silicone ones are much more comfortable in the long run, provided you’re using a size that is right for you.

True. But I guess in the hypothetical scenario where one literally add another head, the technology to facilitate perfect communication would also be available.

I was talking more about the figurative speech of “more heads and hands” from a project management perspective.

Yes, I know how one deals with bad moderators in lemmy.

No you don’t:

Yes, until you start factoring in communication overhead/data loss. That’s why throwing more people at a problem will only help up to a certain point.

More people only improve on a problem when they can effectively communicate. At some point time spent making sure everyone is looped in on the plan exceeds the time saved by one more problem solver.

So to circle back to your actual question: Two heads will most likely be smarter than one, unless they spend more than half the time bickering in disagreement and misunderstanding.

I never played FTFY. Is it any good?

:(

“The moon landing was staged”

Yes. Because that’s how orbital rockets work.

I have a similar bug. It happens if I enter typing mode (such as when writing this comment). It causes the app to have black dead space around it. But I’ve gotten used to it.

Running arbitrary text from the internet through an interpreter… what could possibly go wrong.

I need to set up a website with

fork while 1

…Just so I can (try to) convince people to

curl | perl

it

…rhyme intended.

“Best” is subjective, “good” is objective. And Voyager is objectively good. That’s what I use.

Honorable mention: Jerboa. Used it for a while, but there was a period of Lemmy updating whereas Jerboa did not, so it stopped working. During that time I switched to Voyager. I hear Jerboa is OK again now.

Maybe that’s why I’m so OK with people with non-default sexual preferences: I’m pretty weird myself, I just happen to be reasonably mainstream in terms of sexuality.

She’s raising your twin in the attic to keep as a spare in case you decide to become a “prompt engineer”

Yup. So… sick… of… shoveling. And I’m norwegian, it’s kind of built into my genes.

It didn’t help that I had a station wagon that was RWD with almost no weight in the rear axle. Driving it was like that Bambi on ice scene. And due to a slight inclination and a sharp turn to get into my driveway, parking in the winter was a special skill that involved a 4-wheel skid.

Anyway, last summer I bought a new car, an AWD SUV, built for the climate, and with a defrost/prepared timer. It was amazing. I was actually looking forward to winter; All I needed to do was to ensure I could physically enter the car. And this winter, due to an abnormally dry and warm winter, there’s almost no snow. Whomp whomp.

I’m reasonably vanilla myself, but I know that if I liked something “weird”, people judging me for it wouldn’t help anyone, least of all myself.

I’ve known a few furries over the years, and while I don’t understand it, being in the periphery of the community numbed me enough to “weirder” stuff. They’re not hurting anyone (well, other than their wallets. Do you have any idea how much a pursuit costs? Jfc…), so I don’t see why they’re not any less deserving of acceptance than people who prefer ass over tits, etc.

Drawing fetishist NSFW art. A friend of mine was (and probably still is, I just haven’t had any contact with them for ages) pretty good at drawing. If you’re into hentai and/or furry stuff, there’s a non-zero chance you’ve seen his work. He also did some more “exotic” drawings on commission.

He (allegedly) wasn’t particularly into it himself, but he was good at it, he had a creative outlet, and it gave him a couple of extra bucks per month.

For those who never had a real one: yes.

To the rest of us: They’re not even close.

Yeah, I haven’t seen that anywhere else. I also liked that each user had a limited amount of votes to cast and thus would (presumably) spend them wisely.
