I can’t say this did or didn’t happen, but I absolutely had ‘philosophical’ thoughts like this as a kid.
When I was ~10 I asked my mom how we know other people aren’t ‘aliens or something’. She just dismissed me as being silly, and I didn’t know it at the time but in retrospect I was absolutely experiencing and asking her about solipsism.
I didn’t know it was ‘philosophy’ but I think it’s integral to how we experience the world and sentience in general.
Yeah it’d almost be like if a person got swallowed by a whale or something. Someone should write a book about it.
Piccolo is badass, and clearly he’s black.
Are you using a controller friendly front end for gog/itch? I haven’t found anything that’s comfortable for using them
No. If you stop losing weight on a caloric deficit, you miscalculated the deficit. It’s a thermodynamic certainty. When people hit a long term plateau on a CICO diet, it’s because they either failed to adjust their total daily calorie expenditures for their new weight, or most likely they’re cheating on their calorie counts.
Yep. Weirdly, I didn’t do any work to populate reddit either. It’s almost like that would be impractical and unrealistic for an end user to do.
I don’t have the time. This just fills the empty gaps in my day, before bed winding down
Just… content. I open my Lemmy app once and I’ve seen everything it will show me for the day, or sometimes for multiple days. I open reddit and I can scroll for hours.
Those are also problematic examples, I didn’t say it was a higher tier of danger than other high risk jobs.
Sex trafficking or impoverished/addicted people turning to sex work, no. Society has failed them and we need to fix the underlying problems.
Sex work as a concept I take no issue with. I think it solves a lot of problems interpersonally. Dating would improve with less need for people to hide their motives. People too busy or uninterested in relationships would have an outlet, and disabled people who otherwise can’t attract a partner benefit greatly as well.
Every time reddit announces something dumb I open Lemmy again. I’d rather be here on principle but the content/users just aren’t here yet. Where are the cross post bots?
Phone wallet keys.
There’s an umbrella in my car but I use it like once a year.
It killed the promise of affordable content we had for a decade. When Netflix was the only game in town, you paid less for it and got more.
I’ve ranted about this so much to people close to me. Scientific community just needs to adopt a new word like you say, theory is a lost battle
It’s hard to blame Niel entirely but the newer Cosmos was terrible. Nothing of substance and way too much talk about religion. I don’t mind Niel but he can really be an insufferable cunt irl
Wish we had this instead of a growling guy in a mask headbutting a clown
Nah that trash isn’t touching my phone unless I’m homeless and starving
Never buy chain pizza at menu price. They all run specials all the time, that are around half off. They keep menu prices high so that they can constantly run buy one get one promos and specials to make you think you’re getting a deal. They also happen to gouge people who won’t bother checking the deals section
It’s great for parsing through the enshittified journalism. You know the classic recipe blog trope? If you ask chatgpt for a recipe, it just gives you one. Whether it’s good or not is a different story, but chatgpt is leagues better at getting to the info you want than search has been for the last decade.
