I would like a carton of eggs for Christmas.

It would be really funny if they asked latitude and longitude instead of asking them to point on a map. Suddenly the data becomes very impressive.

Don't you know? Jobs work like prestige classes. You have to max your level and then you need to reset everything to be qualified. Age too, that's where we get all the 20 year olds with 30 years of experience.

I joined during the great exodus and it's gotten better since then. At the time it felt like Lemmy's content was only consistently better than reddit at its worst, but that's not a high bar. I'm not sure how people have found it worse since most communities are still empty husks with like one post a week.

I had a challenge to this idea, but after I thought about it more I'm going to take it in a different direction.

Consciousness seems to be an emergent behavior of at least some complex systems (what systems qualify is unknown). Just sticking with my own neurons, each neuron simply reacts to the signals sent to it and then sends out it's own signal. No neuron has the full context or is necessarily even aware that it's playing part in my own consciousness. Even I don't have the full context of what's happening in my brain.

If we extrapolate this to group behaviors then we can't assume any greater consciousness is any smarter than it's parts.

Both is good, but even stopping all plastic today and picking up every piece of trash we can grab with our hands won't clean up the microplastics that are already in the environment.

Virtual tabletops are more common now so that's how people use these. It's also why it doesn't have a grid as it's a pain to line up the grid image with the VTT grid.

I know the feeling. You kinda space out and start walking in the kata direction and next thing you know you're in another plane of existence. Happens to the best of us.

Hmmm... I don't see what the problem is. Maybe people are just assholes.

Like, anything it says or just commandments? Because the Bible is filled with stories of bad people doing things the Bible considers bad.
