In the mornings I’ll usually read news while enjoying a cup of coffee and a Zyn, too, forgot to mention that

Does finance count? I’m usually studying something in the alternative data space (that is, using non-financial data to make decisions on investments) so I can, in the end, make a presentation or deliver a product to someone. For example, an analyst decides to study a clothing company and asks me to scrape their prices in the main Latin American markets (because he thinks they can grow there or something). So I do that for a while and report back to him what I found. If it is interesting, I may be tasked with implementing something in our Excel add-in so he can plug that information into his own models, or I’ll need to develop a model myself.
Lots of spacing out, browsing lemmy and playing bullet chess on my phone, too

On bike? Believe it or not, also jail.

More stuff to kill in the kill stuff game. If you look at games that emphasize more narrative, there will be fewer pages dedicated to just monsters, like The One Ring 2e. The downside is having less varied combat and less freedom on crafting your own stuff

Running the service itself over Tor is the only way to prevent local governments knocking on the admin’s door, though

Hard agree. Decentralization itself doesn’t really work against censorship, you need an additional layer of privacy, or, more ideally, anonymity. Is there a way of running a lemmy instance over Tor?

Only from the perspective of the characters, though. To us it clearly existed in panels 3 and 4, prime for taking by any higher dimensional beings, that’s what I mean. It doesn’t mean the characters can will anything into existence, it means that time is just another dimension to travel through, and there are entities (that one slice of pizza for example) that travel backwards and forwards.
Another way of seeing this is that it would look equally alien to our 2 dimensional shadows when we pick something from our pockets, or turn something inside out, but it still makes sense to us 3d beings

Can’t disagree here, this would be great

This is a pretty cool thought experiment. From our perspective, there is nothing about this that wouldn’t allow the comic to just keep going. Despite it being a “paradox” from the perspective of the characters, from ours it just is, and doesn’t look particularly nonsensical, just quirky. I wonder if that’s how an eternal/4th dimension being would see our history

We also need people sharing their niche interests and creating discussion… Reddit thrives on these small communities that only find an accessible entrypoint on their platform.

I don’t know about stopping entirely. I built a pretty cool RAG system for internal use in my company, it very much facilitates navigating very large amounts of text data.

The really expensive ones are that price because of consoomers collecting the stuff. Same as action figures, funko pops, etc.

Are they fitting the curve on like 3 points for 24 and 25? I don’t think it’s untrue but why publish this with such a low-hanging fruit to delegitimize the argument

Yup, and the arguments are so weirdly self centered, too. “I went through so much when I started college, what would I talk about with someone in HIGH SCHOOL?” (19-17 gap) Dude, you started smoking pot and went to a few frat parties, it’s not that deep. Also are these people just always discussing life experiences for some reason? No shared interests, hobby groups, common acquaintances?

Reddit would be outraged about an 18 yo dating a 16 yo, though. Some people have really weird and unrealistic views on this

Fair enough. I was considering France and England, too. What are your thoughts on those?

I appreciate your input, but honestly, coming from Brazil, even with those cons I can’t help but wish those were my problems…

As a masters candidate I am actively looking for options in Europe in the finance field, and Germany would be my prefered country to live in. But it’s hard for them to compete with ETH Zurich and Ecole Polytechnique which both have better prestige, student reviews and are close by, not even mentioning Imperial and Oxford which are great too. I was looking into TU Munich and got scared by all the negativity from students in the Reddit sub

Forgot about BGG! That one is amazing, too

I just stumble upon them using Kagi search and phind.com
