I don’t really know much about this topic even after reading the article. It does bother me however that there’s so many channels/server on Telegram full of spammers that seem to offer drugs and prostitution. It’s almost like those were the only things that exist in this world. Which is such a huge waste of a chat program.
Also who the hell listens to any of the nonsense influencers/politicians write in their heavily biased channels, seriously, I can’t find a sane reason to join those, yet strangely that seems to be the only reason the masses use this tool. It’s all just confusing.
I think rating genres is generally not a useful thing. I feel as though pidgeonholing games, music, videos or other things into categories and judging them based on that could lead to narrow-mindedness. Each genre has great games and each genre has bad games.
Some genres are more interesting to some people, but I’d say that’s because hobbies are sort of random and not because some are better than others. If by chance you happen to get a deeper knowledge about a certain genre or topic you will become more interested in it naturally. That doesn’t mean other things are more boring by nature.
That’s done intentionally. The holes make it easier for the bird to spy on you.
Considering the comfy curled up pose of the cat I was thinking since AI already has problems generating hair/fingers/toes due to their variety, how difficult would sleeping/lying cats be.
Finally found the person who keeps stealing wheels…
What does “too comfortable” mean in this context? To me it sounds like you’re bringing up the situation where students don’t care or find the subject boring and then do other things like staring at their phone, doodling, chatting, etc. Is that what you’re referring to?
I don’t think that situation has to do with comfort directly, if anything people feel uncomfortable because boredom is not comfortable. The cause for that boredom could be bad teaching/presentation, or maybe the taught information builds up on knowledge that the student doesn’t have cause they missed a class or didn’t understand the subject at hand or they simply just don’t care and find the topic uninteresting. The brain is good at conserving energy so when a situation seems unimportant it shuts off focus or shifts it to something else. That’s not always helpful.
I’ve heard that for people to be teachable they have to feel safe. Feeling afraid makes your body enter a defensive stance and this includes not only resisting harm but also resisting knowledge transfer. I assume that’s why people who struggle with a subject at school sometimes have a difficult time catching up even when with tutoring.
It would then be similar to how you can’t convince a stranger who believes in wrong things - controversial topics cause stressful situations and when you’re seen as an enemy their brain goes into a defensive mode, distrusting you and not letting new information in. You first have to build up a certain level of trust and mutual understanding.
Maybe that’s nothing new. Either way, this picture reminded me of that.
This reminds me of “Fun to imagine with Richard Feynman” (Youtube link)
In it he said that he thinks people who find science dull lose out on a lot of pleasure. Then he goes on to explain some of the physics behind things we encounter everyday.
Do you still like catching sticks and eating food from the floor?
Having exactly 500 kg up to three decimal places would still be quite impressive!
I never played the game but watched some trailers and gameplay videos. I'm 99% certain that Helldivers 2 is following the Starship Troopers formula and purely making fun of patrionism, propaganda, war, the military, military personnel, "freedom", heroism, politics and military advertisements and turning that into a game. There's just so many obvious signs, it seems impossible to miss. In other words, it is a political game. Or maybe I just really don't get either of the two.
That's an interesting view/idea. Is that a reoccurring theme in politics? Like, I'm wondering if there have been similar cases and if yes how well did they work.
I can imagine something similar happening at school, where eg. kids who litter or destroy plants or furniture are assigned to cleanup/anti litter duty or to gardening work or to furniture maintenance. I think I remember seeing similar things, the idea being that it helps those kids learn to better understand the work that goes into such tasks and the value behind them. Basically it helps build your morals and values or something along those lines.
The way I see it maybe this decision could promote gender equality organisations that are active in Saudi Arabia. It could create or increase social awareness for this topic. Being given a responsibility can make you put more effort into it than you did before because suddenly the effort counts twice.
Seems to be mostly about horror stuff. I guess a bit of a focus on more random negative events / disasters? My assumption it's mind/madness related, so perhaps some of it is only in a pawns imagination/hallucination.
Judging by the few existing screenshots I guess that'd also allow for some random natural disasters like earth movement / quakes (big hole in the ground) and makes me think of other stuff like flooding, tornados, etc. But there's probably already a ton of natural disaster mods.
Also glasses, latex gloves, calculators, earrings and whatever that horseshoe-shaped device below the calculator and next to the potions is. 🤔
Oh right yeah that's definitely a book when zooming in. Okay no bags then.
Is that a slime covered tentacle monster… in a backpack? Yay backpacks! And handbags too.
Not just the tags, also the seams. For some reason manufacturers tend to make the outside of clothes more comfortable to wear than the inside. The many tiny micro-cuts clothes produce are extra uncomfortable with allergies.
Just wear shirts inside out. Much nicer on the skin. Doesn't work well for clothes with zippers or pockets but usually those are reserved for outer layers anyway.
I’d add not using Amazon Prime, Amazon Web Services and other Amazon services. Not using X, being critical of SpaceX. Also, stop advertising these things, stop telling your friends about them, maybe even stop talking about them altogether. I think for some strange reason sometimes bad press is better than no press.
