ohhh that sounds wonderful!

i couldnt find box 6, so I have 1-5, 7-8! heh; so ill do the audiobook for that one

Love DCC! Highly recommend the audiobooks as well. It's a full cast production with sound effects and greatly adds to the story imo.

I may believe in pacifism as the way for myself to live, but I also believe that if someone is going to step up into that role, declare themselves like that, then they have set expectations for themselves in others' eyes. If they fail to meet those expectations but keep playing the role and acting like a qualified leader of mankind, they should lose all authority and be prepared to face ridicule for their farce.

On a more serious note, I also sometimes wonder to what extent Lemmy is prone to FUD and content designed to increase anxiety rather than move us toward a better community.

Someone with the technical know-how could perhaps quantify the amount, proportion, and visibility of content that moves us toward valued ends compared to content that dumb us down to merely thinking about survival.

The right side looks sicks. Makes me wanna play some Blades in the Dark with my friends 🤤

Handy for learning languages

Nice art

Whatever the solution or solutions are, I just wish more people in positions to do something about it would....do something about it. Because I 100% agree it's embarrassing to share the Fediverse with anyone as it currently is.

People ready and willing to give in to violent impulses are on both side of the issue, and both sides need to handle those people so the rest of us can talk. The problem is that one side is handling theirs, and the other side isn't. The longer this goes on, the worse it looks for those of us still trying to hold back the violence from our side, but it's not a matter of things getting bad enough that we can justify letting the violent ones go ahead. It's about holding fast to higher principles no matter what anyone else says or does. It's about having the strength and courage to believe in a future of peaceful coexistence, to move toward that goal, no matter how ineffective it might seem right now.

Our true enemy is nothing less than the survival-selected instincts that kept our kind alive until today, when we can replace those instincts with social and technological security. We developed that security in a matter of centuries. Evolution takes hundreds of thousands of years. Do the math. Choose peace.

Video killed the radio star... video killed the wifi... yeah, ok, that checks out.

TBF, wifi is radio. 🤓

I kind of preferred the skirt when it was just attached at the waist. I think less-curved pieces overlapping a little with a strip of fabric loosely connecting them at the bottom (to avoid flashing people but keeping it "flowy") would have looked amazing.

The corset is absolutely stunning

Very cool. Currently listening to SQCSRiviera FM 98.1 from Playa del Carmen!

You need a VPN to do pretty much anything in the UK now, but listening to the radio shouldn’t be one of the things.

That is a weird law to have in place.... there is always a vpn

I was able to replicate by setting my vpn to the UK! ooph

User in the UK are restricted to UK stations only.

This country man.

like zoom.earth but with music

One could reasonably say deficiencies in essential nutrition can lead to aggression (at least some essential elements)

Excessive intake of omega-6 linoleic acid may also inhibit the synthesis of omega-3 α-linolenic acid to EPA and DHA, highlighting a need to ensure a good dietary balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids

Makes it clear just supplementing a deficient diet may not be sufficient.

I really like this paper because it doesn't use self-reported mood data; it's third party observations.

None of the type-a's are in use.

Still less load than using the SUPERDANA.

That's more or less how my homelab is powered now. 10/10 would recommend if you can splurge on the USB PD cables and adapters. I only run 1 machine per adapter, though. Makes a world of difference and got rid of the rats nest of power bricks when I moved everything to ultra small form factor PCs.

Sunshine City in Ikebukuro has one of the largest gashapon arcades in existence.

There's a free projection show at the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building in Shinjuku. It was a lot of fun. When I was there last they were doing Godzilla, Gundam , and Blue Lock. They project the video right onto the government building. There's also a free viewing platform.

Meiji shrine is nice, you can daytrip to kyoto and see the bamboo forest or golden temple. Fuji may not be open for hiking yet but you could go soak in one of the onsens at the base of it.

Bum guns!
