@futurebird I think this is a slight misread, based on what Dr. Cottom says about it.Really high-end “work” is subtle, and people may wonder. The MAGA look is intentionally unsubtle. Cottom says it signifies submission. “I’m so all-in for Trump that I’ll go under the knife to look the way he likes.” And if everyone else thinks it’s hideous, that just makes the signal more expensive and therefore convincing.

@datarama @futurebird (Fascinating. I meant to distinguish the two groups of placental mammals from the interesting Echidna-Platypus crowd. Echidnae are less good at handling heat than the marsupials are, and shut down in the middle of a lot of days, I gather.The various systems for it have probably developed and converged more than once even in mammals, I think, but there may be some shared primitives.

@adriano @epicdemiologist @brad *.apkg is a new file format to me but I’m very excited about it. Are there any clean, ad-free iphone or ios app you know of to use such flash card files? (if not no worries I plan on learning more about this kind of data structure— it’s something I’ve needed for some time)

@clew @goaty I think they pick sticky mud and mix and pack it so that it's somewhat water resistant. But that also may be why they have multiple walls, the outer ones may fail, but they won't all fail hopefully. Forget the "secret of Roman cement what are the ants doing?"

@moonrabbit ohhhhI think my plushies are measured in brynntimetres

@cshlan @ColesStreetPothole @ai6yr @alexwild Announcer VO: "For the fifth week the sewage system has remained broken. Some residents have set up a blockchain to monetize the repair process but no one wants to clean the pipes. Tensions are rising and some want to go home. Where will this adventure in freedom take them next? Find out in this weeks episode of "Libertarian Barge!"Roll music and intro sequence.

I'm afraid I never played the module. What’s down there?

@futurebird Anyone in US government who is a Russian agent would feel very successful if they disrupted NATO.

@futurebird 1. They are probably trying to surf the new mayor's wave??2. This Portuguese-language video from BBC News says most of the pistachio actually comes from the US. Production is increasing steadily, so they are pushing for increasing adoption so that they can keep selling for a high price.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xR3881oE8dA

@wavesculptor @Tattie @vfrmedia @funkula Where is "meandering is mandatory"

Nope, third time's a bricking.

@sidereal @Nichelle @futurebird English isn't my first language, but my impression is that most of them are pretty good at English grammar. (Though, apparently, they have a "voice" not unlike well-educated people from former British colonies in Africa - for depressingly obvious reasons). Of course, there might be subtleties I don't pick up on.In Danish, not only do they frequently screw up grammar, they're *dumber*. You can ask them questions that they get right in English, and they'll spew nonsense in Danish. This, to me, illustrates well how they work and what the "understanding" they seem to have actually is made of.

More like Capitalism Plus in the case of scalpers.

I think you overestimate how many people are gonna care about that kind of things when their lives are at stake. Rats are not that rare or unusual.

@Natasha_Jay If you took the rainbow wouldn't you just end up in Asgard

@CaptMorgan This is great for students who have strong algebra. But that idea of using increasing powers? It's really not obvious that's what's going on when you first start. But could one do something with... physical cubes and literal flat squares? That's Cuisenaire rods for decimal. Are there... base 16 Cuisenaire rods? Why not? hmm....

@bob You have piqued my interest. As a longtime user of both, I have not heard of this connection. Please tell me more!@futurebird

@jzik @techwerkers @netblocks @ooni This doesn't rely on internet infrastructure. It can be run in cheap computers connected by radio (LoRa). Usually small, local networks.

@aj @joannaholman @futurebird Oh jeez you just made me remember the absurd prices and limits they used to have on SMS.Sure, you can keep a full-weight voice connection going for hours every night or weekend, no charge.But sending 100 bytes of text? Whoa there buddy, we'll have to charge you for that.
