81·9 months agoyou eat dog shit?
You don’t notice when you step in dog shit?
No but only because I stopped using google search years ago.
It has been getting worse for the last decade.

Not really. Just that consciousness is an incredibly complex thing that we don’t really understand.
Dissociation as a side effect of a medication I was on.
It is really hard to describe. It was as if I was a passenger within my own body and mind. I was watching myself do and say things with no feeling of presence or control.
Why is the British empire so aggressively hated right now?
You communicate in English, so the British empire will be the focus.
The colonies we had were far better treated than most colonies of the era, or ever to be honest.
Reads early Aus convict history and the extermination of the Aboriginal people. … Are you fucking delusional?
If you want to educate yourself on the subject I suggest reading The Fatal Shore and Aboriginal wars:
New book reveals sophistication of Indigenous tactics during frontier wars
The killing times: Australia’s map of frontier war massacres updated
We didn’t rape and pillage as much as everybody else so we were the GOOD GUYS!!
You are not to blame for the actions of past members and of the society you live in but to hand wave away the historical reality of colonialism is not helpful in any way.
Yes, every people’s history is filled with this shit, that does not make it better.
No, because the acetic acid (vinegar) will have evaporated as well. It will be slightly stronger but not 20%
Acetic acid boils at ~120 C so less of it will have evaporated than the water but it will still evaporate as well.
replace all roads with steel plate
Rusted out roads in 3, 2, 1 (years)
When the earth was basically Hoth made real.
Depends, I went from BBSes to slashdot to koro5hin to reddit to kbin and do not feel old.
To me old-age begins when you feel you are past the time when you can learn/experience something new and/or new tech no longer feels exciting/interesting but scary.
I have met people in their 80s who have a younger outlook on life than some people in their 40s.
I think it will continue to limp along in its zombie state.
Well, Digg still exists…
all they have to do is hold the lie together long enough to sell.
That last phrase is really doing a lot of heavy lifting. When you own a large chuck of stock in a post IPO company, trying to cash out large ownership stakes has the effect of crashing the price.
My expectation is that what ever the IPO price is, one year from then (the usual minimum time to be able to sell a stake like spez will have) it will be lucky to be 5% of the launch price.
And yet the 10,000 years of the clock’s run time is not even a single tick in comparison to geological time or the lifespan of the sun.
Human life spans are so short in comparison to the wider universe it is hard for the human mind to grasp. We are not even a blink in the eye of a person who lives to 100.
it’s hardly justice.
To quote that great late 20th century philosopher, Terry Pratchett:
There is no justice in the world, there is Just Us. (and many of us are not nice people.)
Yes, he will cash out but I feel it will only be a fraction of what he hoped to get.
He will be comfortably rich but to someone who expected to be obscenely rich, he will see it as a failure.
They are about 2 years too late.
The rise in interest rates and the end of easy VC money has swung the dial back to: Companies actually need to generate profit and not just show user growth to be attractive to investors.
The IPO will not go as spez dreamed for so long.
I hate to tell your this but his mother lived to 106…
