went for a 2-day trip with a friend. feels good to breathe the air of another city.

as a kid i thought those arrows pointed to heaven. seems this driver was with 5y/o me.

I stitched a little notebook !

(so little ! it’s about A9 in size)

I only hit the 300 search quota back in March, just on the last day of that month’s plan. I do like the service, but I’m uncertain on Vlad so I’ve established using other services.

Apart from filters (to exclude content you don’t want to see), how did you curate your feed? was it entirely from All and Local?

Thanks for your concern, and the funny imagery, it really made me reflect. I’m now on a better place mentally.

Fun tactic, indeed. Responding as if an unruly AI manages the account.

The Babadook, it made me tear a tear as no other movie in years.

I remember the memes back when it premiered and thought of it as a silly monster movie BUT OH NO. Either psychotic or supernatural, however I interprest the film is horrifyingly captivating.

Haven’t heard of any new movies that excite me.

I’ve learnt how to launch 7 terminal simultaneously; feel like a total hacker out of a movie.

On a different note, I feel completely lonely. I haven’t talked out loud with anyone for 4 days. Speech is exhausting.

Add to that, just had the opportunity to watch The Babadook and Hereditary back to back. It broke me in a beautiful way.

Here’s the pdf to the 4th edition.

What improvements did you make based on the book? I’m skimming through it.

genuinely, why do they suck?

that’s great! way ahead of the goal, i see. what was this last book about?

i’ve met with 3 people i cherish and haven’t seen in a while (a best friend, a cousin, and a fwb), yet there’s this lingering sensation it was all sour and i didn’t know how to properly react.

apart from that, I’ve been more physically active in the evenings. and I’ve eaten! regularly!

i treated myself by having a loooong play session of Hollow Knight. the stopping point was right after a key upgrade, so it felt like a cliffhanger (!!!) for when i pick it up again.

When the migration started on early June, the content on Lemmy was mostly organic (people writing posts/requests and actual discussion).

Now, a few months later, it is mostly links to articles in mostly every instance. I wonder how many are bots flooding the human voices.

The communties I’ve come to follow are good, but not numerous.

What app do you use? Jerboa doesn’t allow keyword filtering AFAIK

Welcome! 🥂

No need to apologize, it’s an honest comment. Plus not all weeks can be winners 🫂 How have you unleashed your creative side?

grandma is hospitalized, yet I’m more stressed about the relatives I’m staying with. yeah, they’ve been taking care of her for years now, but they mostly talk shit about her. it clashes with the sweet perception i have.

did i really get to know her?

we’re all suffering, but I don’t know how to help. I tried cleaning a bit, but my uncle got angry about moving his dirty dishes. the least i want rn is to be a burden.

I’ve been mentally preparing to be a little down for winter, but this is a smack down.

Yeah! That’s why I mentioned it, it was a fresh ambiguous notation problem that I’ve never encountered before. Discussions of “is it 1 or 9” get tiring quickly.

At least WA and others tell you how they interpret the input, instead of being a black box (until you get to the manuals). Even though it is obvious in hindsight, I didn’t get why two calculators would yield different results; thanks!

Nice write-up.

Damn ragebait posts, it’s always the same recycled operation. They could at least spice it up, like the discussion about absolute value. What’s |a|b|c|?

What I gather from this, is that Geogebra is superior for not allowing ambiguous notation to be parsed 👌

It is an interesting question indeed!

I also find quite interesting how introducing the Dual Dialectic turns the usually-depicted 2D moral plane into a… Riemann sphere?

Even then, that geometry seems more fit to deal with representing the frequent compromises between individual and collective. My solarpunk heart is happy to read about this second model.

Neat visualization and quality writing. Thanks for sharing!
