Tämä oli hyvä selitys maallikolle. Olen tähän asti ymmärtänyt intin ja floatin eron lähinnä siten, että ensimmäinen on kokonaisluku ja jälkimmäinen desimaalin. En koskaan ajatellut, että laskutoimiksissa floatit voivat aiheuttaa tuollaista heittoa. Näin sitä humanistikin oppii 😅
Good riddance ❤️
Sounds good to me:
The above-mentioned politicians believe that after the "elimination" of Russian President Vladimir Putin, the Russians will elect the Constituent Assembly, which will create the "State Council". The latter will, in particular:
conclude a peace agreement with Ukraine recognising its territory within the borders of 1991; justly compensate Ukraine for the damage that the country suffered as a result of the war. Afterwards, it will take Russia along the way that the country had already traveled before, during Boris Yeltsin's presidency. Russia will then be integrated into Euro-Atlantic institutions, whereas Russian regions will be decentralised.
Tämä toimii toistaiseksi ainakin erittäin hyvin. Harmi jos jatkossa ei...
Niin, nähtäksi jää, että oliko tämä hallitusyhteistyötä puoltavaa retoriikkaa ("otamme rasismin vakavasti, koska siitä on omakohtaistakin kokemusta") vai valmisteleeko Päivärinta pohjaa äänestää hallitustovereitaan vastaan luottamusäänestyksessä ("minulla on omakohtainen kokemus rasismista, siksi en voi antaa luottamusääntäni Purralle ja/tai Rydmanille"). Veikkaan ensimmäistä, missä tapauksessa tämä on tyhjää retoriikkaa ja myös aika irvokasta sellaista.
Kansanedustaja Susanne Päivärinta kertoo saaneensa vuodesta toiseen kuulla olevansa vääränlainen ja vääränvärinen.
Suomalainen rasismikohu: hyväosainen, vaaleaihoinen kokoomuskansanedustaja kertoo olleensa rasismin uhri.
Päivärinnan kuvaama kokemus on toki hirveä, tuomittava ja kaikki sympatia hänelle, mutta onhan tämä nyt absurdi tilanne. Can't make this shit up...
En ole tätä tapausta jaksanut paljoa seurata, mutta eikös aika usein tällaisissa tapauksissa ratkota juuri tuota monitulkintaisuuden ongelmaa? Siis toisin sanoen sitä, että meneekö soveliaan puhumisen raja eksplisiittisessä ilmaisussa vai siinä mitä puhuja sanoillaan implikoi. Näkisin, että jonkinlainen rajanveto tämän suhteen on tärkeää, sillä nykyisellään varsinkin tietyt poliittiset toimijat implikoivat puheillaan yhtä sun toista ja uhriutuvat, kun tämä osoitetaan vastenmieliseksi ja vaaralliseksi. Ennakkotapaus toisi tähän ehkä jonkinlaista selvyyttä, oli linja sitten sallivampi tai ilmaisun vapautta rajaavat.
Huomasin saman. Syötin kyssärit ChatGPT:lle, pyysin tuottamaan mahdollisimman mutkikkaat ja turhauttavat vastaukset ja pistin paluupostissa Metalle. Nyt vaan odotellaan...
If I remember correctly, it is explicitly referred during the time Dream is held captive by the Burgess family. It is explained that the universe tries to make up for Dreams absence and a guy sees nightmares that cease only when he starts wearing a gas mask and fighting crime. This is the pulp version of the Sandman, so yes, He is part of the Gaiman lore.
I've always thought that CAPTCHA also checksfor time, e.g. if the correct solution is entered too fast, it will determine that you are a bot. This would mean that a fast bot would not really "win". Not sure if this is the case or why I've thought it is, but it came to my mind from this 😅
Erinomainen analyysi ja vaikka se ei ollutkaan tämän kirjoituksen pointti, jäin kaipaamaan näkemystä siitä, miten äärioikeiston mediavaikuttamiseen ja tapaan ottaa yhteiskunnallista keskustelua haltuun, voitaisiin vastata.
Syy tähän on se, että olen pitkään ollut sitä mieltä, että arvoliberaali (keskusta)vasemmisto tarvitsee oman suuren narratiivin, joka on toivoa ja tulevaisuudenuskoa valava sekä käytännön toimintaan kannustava. Siis rakentava, vähän utopistinenkin kertomus kyynisen oikeistokertomuksen vastapainoksi. Olisi kiva kuulla muiden ja erityisesti tutkijoiden mietteitä siitä, että mitä tämä voisi käytännöstä olla.
Just an ordinary day/week/month in any other culture and time period. Given that I understood the language of course 😅 Would be much more interesting than witnessing any particular event that is considered "historical".
Thanks. I still enjoy following this directly in Lemmy. But I'll manage if the zoom never materializes 😅
Can we zoom back soon? It's nicer to follow that way...
Nah...I'm perfectly fine just finishing the story.
...
Unless that's part of the story 😅
I think I'm supposed to go to the area with the bees. I never found the entrance so the game's been on hold for a few years 😬

Just out of curiosity: is anyone here using Love2D and Lua for game development? I have some experience with Unity but sometime ago started learning Love2D. Lua seems to very simple language to code in and since Love2D doesn't have any graphical UI it sort of forces you to make everything work through code. As a beginner hobbyists, I really love this.
I'd love to hear your thoughts about Love2D and what it's capable of. Currently I am interested in doing asmall Snake-like puzzle game and a demo for classic Ultima type crpg. Not really full games, but I am sort of interested in seeing how well certain concepts and ideas work in practice. Lua seems to be very good for doing just that.
As requested in another topic, I decided to share my favorite game from 2022 and 2020s as a whole: Pentiment. The whole game is very close to being a living medieval manuscript. It's beautiful both in graphics and the way it tells it's story. A true masterpiece!

Can't believe I make a second post so soon. Found this on @memes and thought I should share. So here you go 😁
...but I kinda like it. They are fascinating breed of birds aren't they? Surprisingly intelligent and playful bunch.
Magpies are probably my favorite, or atleast the ones I enjoy watching the most, so here's an picture of one of them 😅
Moi!
Tykästyin käyttämään Lemmyä wefwef-nimisen web-sovelluksen kautta. Nyt vaihdoin puhelinta, mutta WefWef ei annakaan enää kirjautua sisään Sopulin instanssin. Herjaa vaan virheestä ja käskee yrittämään uudestaan.
Onko kellään samanlaista kokemusta ja onko joku löytänyt tähän ratkaisua? Tai olisiko jollakulla suositella appia Lemmyn käyttöön (Reddittiä sekaisin Reddit is fun -sovelluksella)
Kiitos!
I am currently reading the book and would love to hear other people's thoughts about it. I cannot do any deep analysis of it, but here's some random thoughts about the book:
Personally I was surprised how easy it is to read. At the same time it is hard to follow, which makes it a very slow read. Therefore I find the Infinite Jest difficult to pick up and impossible to read in long stretches. However, most of the book is very intriguing and I am determined to finish it, no matter how long it takes. Currently I'm about 100 pages in, so there's still lot more to go.
Up to this point I enjoy the fractured structure of the book the most. It presents almost random flashes into different peoples' lives and situations they're in. Most of it is interesting, but I do get a bit bored reading about the stuff going on in the Tennis Academia. The constant shuffling between the text and footnotes has not gotten into me yet, but I guess it might become annoying at some point.
Other thing I love is that the universe of Infinite Jest manages to be both terrifying and ridicilous. The world presented is absolute nonsense and has both dystopian and utopian qualities:
-
There are Wheelchair Assassins, Québécois separatists and a unified American State called O.N.A.N (I am reading a translation, so the allusion to masturbation eluded me until I read about it in the internet) to begin with.
-
Calendar has been sold to sponsors so that instead of numbers and traditional names, years and months have names of their sponsor's.
-
Teenagers are playing a game with ridicilous amount of arbitary rules, which really boils down to jumping in front of a moving train (thus bringing up new candidates for the Wheelchair Assassins).
-
So much more.
At times the whole book reads like a giant Monty Python sketch with a human element at the center of it all. Focus seems to be on themes of addiction and media influence, but who knows where it all will lead to.
I highly recommend you try the book, if you have any interest at all. To read more, you can check the Wikipedia page (seems to spoil the "plot", so use with caution): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_Jest
tldr; Infinite Jest is frustrating but a wonderful book/reading experience. Please share your thoughts wether you've read it or not.
Couldn't find one but was wondering if there is a Glorantha community here on Lemmy. Any tips?
I've been following John Vervaeke's public work for some time now and find it interesting on many levels. In this new video He and science fiction author Damien Walter are discussing mythos, the importance of storytelling and what we can learn from the way Star Trek is telling it's stories.
Personally I tie this to the notion that in order for humankind to survive and keep our human character, we have to resurrect great narratives and belief in some sort of shared progress. Star Trek offers a glimpse of the future that, while fictional, can work as a mainstay for facing contemporary and future problems.
