“All issues have only one sensible side and the rest are insensible” is not the takeaway from their comment. Some issues have multiple sensible sides. Other issues might have one sensible sides and several nonsense sides. All their last comment did was provide an example of the latter. They seem to take no stance on what type of issue their first example is.

Welcome to Moe’s!

not with that attitude

More from the same set

I think this is the first time I’ve seen someone bring up Dunning-Kruger to comfort someone rather than insult them

I made filters with uBlock Origin that block out from Lemmy (and some other sites) any post containing one of the words “Trump”, “Elon”, “Musk”, “RFK Jr”, “maga”, or “nazi”.

You still stay mostly up-to-date because that shit has a way of filtering through anyways, but you cut out 90% of the redundant fluff. I originally set the filters up in November when I was feeling very similar to how I imagine you felt when you made this post.

I can’t read the whole article because it’s paywalled, but the first two paragraphs confirm what everyone already knew: The author purposely led ChatGPT into weird occult topics, then acted scandalized when ChatGPT got weird and occult.

I thought 4chan shut down permanently like 2 months ago?

What’s your earliest dream you can still remember?

I think the screenshot is from their friend’s account, to show us what kinds of games they’ve already played? Wasn’t super clear to me either though

This is one of the better ones I’ve seen. It looks actually pretty 3D.

Make the image as large as you can on your screen while still having it all visible. I don’t recommend a phone - try it on a monitor. Don’t try to see the whole image at once - look at one small part. Play with the focus of your eyes until you start to see an edge forming - and when you do, lock onto the edge until you can see it without struggling. Just try to make the edge clearer without bothering with the larger shape yet. Once you do, it should be easier to hold the focus as you look around the image and actually pick out what shapes everything is making.

I recommend focusing on this part of the image as you start - there’s a pretty cool sea turtle there. Don’t use this version with the red scribble, the red scribble makes it noticeably more difficult.

Using they/them by default is already a good start - I would be surprised to learn if neopronouns are a thing at all in languages that don’t have gendered pronouns to begin with. they/them is perfectly acceptable to 99+% of people - both cis and LGBT+.

You can just say LGBT or LGBT+. Lots of others are in use but very, very few people will legitimately get mad at you for picking one over any other.

If someone specifically tells you to call them a certain thing, you should call them that thing. Otherwise just stick to they/them.

If someone tells you their sexuality and it is not relevant to you, you have no obligation to ever bring it up again, just as with any form of oversharing.

And as for why some people share these things even though you may personally find it too revealing - that’s just down to personal preference. Different things are important to different people in different ways. Some people might go through their life never giving their gender a single thought. Others might base their life around affirming and fighting for it in various ways. Most people are somewhere in the middle. Everyone has a cause they believe in a lot - for some people, this is that cause. As an “Aero Ace” (a term I had to look up - “aromantic asexual” for those who also haven’t encountered it), you’re probably pretty predisposed to not care about any of this stuff on any significant level.

Cory in the House?

It is 33% if the answer itself is randomly chosen from 25%, 50%, and 60%. Then you have:

If the answer is 25%: A 1/2 chance of guessing right

If the answer is 50%: A 1/4 chance of guessing right

If the answer is 60%: A 1/4 chance of guessing right

And 1/3*1/2 + 1/3*1/4 + 1/3*1/4 = 1/3, or 33.333…% chance

If the answer is randomly chosen from A, B, C, and D (With A or D being picked meaning D or A are also good, so 25% has a 50% chance of being the answer) then your probability of being right changes to 37.5%.

This would hold up if the question were less purposely obtuse, like asking “What would be the probability of answering the following question correctly if guessing from A, B, C and D randomly, if its answer were also chosen from A, B, C and D at random?”, with the choices being something like “A: A or D, B: B, C: C, D: A or D”

Yes but it’s not hooked up to cable or the internet. I just use it for the Switch, or I’ll occasionally hook it up as an alternate second monitor to my PC and play a movie on it. It hasn’t been turned on in a few weeks and the last time was to be used as a temporary monitor to set up a new headless PC.

Adding on to the reasons others posted: Put yourself in his shoes for a moment. If you take off a year for him, that puts an immense amount of pressure on him. Pressure to go to the same school as you, pressure to go to school at all, even pressure to stay in the relationship.

It’s always gonna be “They made this gigantic life decision to their detriment for me, so if I change my mind about anything and want to do things differently, like by going to a different school, or not going to a school, or wanting to break up, then I’m a huge ungrateful jerk.”

Putting that kind of pressure on someone isn’t really cool, especially if they’re actively discouraging you from doing so.

Others have covered that there were internal supports, so they were supporting nothing at all. But let’s assume they weren’t.

I’m going for an intentional underestimate - so let’s say there are 10 people in your layer (I think 8 is more likely), then 24 above them, 18 above them, 18 above them, 25 above them, 14 above them, and 2 above them. I think most people would agree those are underestimates for each ring.

That’s 101 people being supported by 10 people. If we take another underestimate that each of those people weighs 100 pounds (45.36 kg) then that’s 10,100 pounds (4581.28 kg) - or 1010 pounds (458.13 kg) supported by each of the 10 people in your ring, completely ignoring the weight of the metal rings visible in the picture. So I think it’s safe to say it was mostly the internal supports at work.
