xkcd 154 Never really thought about someone not recognizing it, but I’ll update desc and try to remember in the future

random chinese book?

Tbh, I want my memes with sources. and this one is strange…

https://civilizationchronicles.com/roman-engineering-and-mathematics/ claims that mathmatics were essensial to roman engineering.

whereas this (only abstract avaliable…) https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-662-66494-0_25 claim that mathmatics were but an auxillary science? 🤔

nontheless mathmatics seems to have been quite understood and used by the roman engineers building among other things, aqueducts

I’m impressed

worst part is, I kinda fuck with this.

A bath and not having to leave and go to your bedroom through a cold hallway 🤩

the mold on the other hand… 🥲

yea, it’s also just up to 160

using grayjay to download wham:last christmas gives us up to 134kbps opus. which is fine, it’s the official channel and all, so upload is pretty good.

Just talking, is more like 118kbps, a gresham lecture came in at that.

Opus is variable, which is pretty good. saves bandwith and all.

also to point out, youtube reencodes a lot of videos, so the older it is - the more likely it has been re-encoded. and youtube is not encoding from an old master file.

Point is, totally agree on the generational thing, which you (mostly) avoids with spotify.

it’s good enough for most audio setups if you find the decent audio on youtube first

yea, looks like the website certificate is out of date

Not only are CDs in 16bit, which is noticably lossy - it’s a human product. all human made stuff will have mistakes and errors. what about the editing, studio or anything else

also a registered republican!

“for example”

Usually, a better way to help an ecosystem balance itself is to reintroduce predators or similarly.

the deer population in yellowstone was destroying the soil, this was solved by reintroducing wolves.

there’s a big difference between this, and f.ex castrating a lot of the deer, or going on a shooting spree.

It also goes with the assumption that the ecosystem is either outside the moral spectrum, or morally good.

I’m not a fan of utalitarianism myelf, so this might be wrong; this sounds like utalitarianism - as the action you did cause other suffering.

then in your moral philosophy, are all actions that cause suffering (and joy, and all other feelings a human can experience) morally wrong?

Is then not dating, f.ex Morally wrong?

Or is it the impossibility of consent? Yes, a child is unable to consent to being born. Just as we are all unable to consent to the world being created, or nature’s whims. I cannot consent to a state on the other side of the world making policies, but I can still react and do things about it.

Is it morally wrong to let animals have children?

Just as I rewatch black lagoon! perfect

Currently out trans at work, as a security guard myself - I find it so difficult to present even slightly feminine! good luck!

very cool to see fellow queer guards!

Thank you! <3 I think I sorta get it now!

will you post the “sealioning” copy? (all I can think of is operation sealion)

the conclusion is correct, but might I also add that it’s because of short term profit, today not tomorrow.

if capitalism just focused on long term profit, then climate would be tackled, as well as health issues like smoking. these things are all unprofitable.
