I’m not really sure what the point of this is. Why not just create communities on Lemmy for those listed topics?

How is this intended to fit in with existing Wii emulators ^[1]? Is it essentially just trying to offer a more convenient mobile option?

IMO, an entity that supports authoritarianism has no business associating itself with the Gadsden flag in the first place. So I’m not exactly sure what message this image is trying to convey. Is it saying that those who support liberty fundamentally support authoritarianism somehow? Is it calling out those who misappropriate the Gadsden flag?. Is it accusing those who espouse liberty of cowardice of inaction whilst they are oppressed by authoritarianism?

For clarity, are you saying that you want to be represented by boot in the image?

I retrained myself in Dvorak many years back […]

It’s been a while since I’ve tried Dvorak, so I’m not very confident in my memory, but, iirc, I remmeber Dvorak causing some discomfort in my wrists. Not as bad as QWERTY, mind you, but I found that Workman was much more comfortable for me. Plus, I found that the general proximity of Workman to QWERTY, when compared with the proximity of Dvorak to QWERTY, made it much more convenient to use. For example, on Workman, copy and paste (ie Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V) are each just moved over one key to the right ^[1], whereas Dvorak puts them on the opposite end of the keyboard ^[2], that is, when comparing them with QWERTY ^[3].

What bother’s me about these sorts of posts is they don’t give people a consumption goal. Blindly telling everyone to consume less isn’t exactly fair. Say, for example, there’s person A who consumes 1 unit of red meat per month, and person B who consumes 100 units of red meat per month. If you say to everyone “consume 1 unit of red meat less per month”, well, now person A consumes 0 units of red meat per month, and person B consumes 99 units of red meat per month. Is that fair? Say, you tell everyone “halve your consumption of red meat per month”, well, now person A consumes 0.5 units of red meat per month, and person B consumes 50 units of red meat per month. Is that fair? Now, say, you tell everyone “you should try to eat at most 2 units of meat per month”, well now person A may happily stay at 1 unit knowing that they’re already below the target maximum, they may choose to decrease of their own accord, or they may feel validated to increase to 2 units of red meat per month, and person B will feel pressured to dramatically, and (importantly, imo) proportionally, reduce their consumption. Blindly saying that everyone should reduce their consumption in such an even manner disproportionately imparts blame, as there are likely those who are much more in need of reduction than others. It may even be that a very small minority of very large consumers are responsible for the majority of the overall consumption, so the “average” person may not even need to change their diet much, if at all, in order to meet a target maximum.

I have never seen a roman numeral 2 stylized with square brackets before. Neat!

I acquire music either through saving what I hear being played around me (if like it), by recommendations from people, by using Spotify’s recommendations algorithm, or by saving all the music from an artist that I’ve found and filtering later by shuffling my library. The last one can become a little overwhelming as I’ve found that it can quickly balloon the size of one’s music library, and the size can be daunting for me to filter through, but it does help me find some obscure music from artists that I like.

I apologize, but I’m not the best to explain it

For clarity, I wasn’t really looking for an explanation of what they are — I was simply unsure exactly what you were referring to.

[…] this particular form of meditation connected to Buddhist religious and spiritual practices […]

[…] perfectly secular or non-spiritual forms of meditation […]

Could you cite some information on both of those to help me understand exactly what you’re referring to?

I think you did a really good job with the texturing of the beard. Also, kinda looks like Destiny to me 😆

For clarity, are you saying that you think meditation is nonsense? If so, why or what about it do you think it’s nonsense?

IMO, one of the worst parts of the article is this quote:

[…] “We might have to put DOGE on Elon,” [Trump] said. […] “If DOGE looks at Musk, we’re going to save a fortune,[sic]” […] ^[1]

To me, this reads as an admission of guilt from Trump that he instructs DOGE to withhold its scrutiny from entities favorable to him, and that he biases it towards entities unfavorable to him.

[Tesseract is] a Photon fork.

TIL that Tesseract is a Photon Fork. Would you know, by chance, at what point in Photon’s development it was forked to form Tesseract, and what the rationale was?
