Why is space 2 dimensional?
  • It’s like how the earth bulges out at the equator.

    The momentum pulls them out, gravity pulls it back. Similar thing at the solar and galactic planes.

    They “bulge” relatively to the spin of the material over time and the clumps of material then forms planets along that general plane.

    From the aboves video you can see this at 44seconds

    And a relevant PBS Spacetime video

    Why is the Earth Round and the Milky Way Flat? | Space Time | PBS Digital Studios

    But the biggest reason is the way gasses form in space. As noted in the above video at the 8:45 mark. Gasses aren’t able to fall back into the center along their axis of spin because of their momentum. But the gassed above and below the plane can move towards the gathering material there by gravity and so it flattens out.

  • Can you think of any others?
  • Roll for intelligence.. 16. The progress of the one hit BEG killing spell is 33%

    <many turns later>

    Roll for intelligence.. 3. The progress of the one hit BEG killing spell is 96%. That’s the only action you can take on your turn. You better hope the party can stop the army from hitting the power source of this spell before it finishes.

    Roll for intelligence… 5. Since that would be more than 100 the progress of the spell rolls back to 91%.

  • Can you think of any others?
  • A crack forms below you… and suddenly a tunnel collapses inward beneath your feet.

    After a short while your fall is arrested. You are now snagged in a web, in the dim light lit from where you fell you can see this web goes on, all around you, seemingly forever.

  • Can you think of any others?
  • I cast CVE-2014-0160… at the darkness

  • Can you think of any others?
  • You roll a 1.

    This causes an unauthorized access exception and a giant bouncer rapidly approaches, screaming in fury.

  • The orc becomes a pile of gelatin, quivering, you now must choose what it will become.

  • Knight Panther by John Blanche, 1986
  • I’m not sure why but it looks almost like a miniature or a “Honey I Shrunk the Knight” scene

  • Echoes of Wisdom is so good.
  • I’m looking forward to it. Just worried that it’ll be as short as Links Awakening

  • I always get them confused.
  • Enders Game instilled the importance of adjusting your frame of reference. What was up can become down.

    So it’s science fiction but when you consider a collaborative global human response to existential danger it’s fantasy.

    But the Shadow series shows how quickly we go back to weaponizing and using gifted war trained children as tools of conquest… so realism/horror?

  • Good Computer Handbooks
  • If a person is at the intro/intermediate level that advice may be sound enough. Since they’re less likely to apply proper rules to include those ranges of IP’s etc.

    Assuming it’s advising disabling it at the router/switch level and not just a per device level.

    Better would be to explain: Disable this until you’re familiar with the following concepts (see cited books/material for more info)

  • How do I make my own internet?
  • Or a LAN. Could do a WAN which itself can be interconnected over a wide area. Usually by routing over the internet but you could use something like satellite uplink or miles of dedicated cables.

    But the interconnection of multiple LANS and WANS is what would make an “internet”.

    So maybe 2 universities joining their own networks would be moving towards a private “internet” but I think we’d still call that a private network or a WAN.

    It’s interesting to consider where the definitions change.

  • Clever guy
  • Air only has so much resistance itself. High enough voltage and the closest path to ground is where the charge will go.

    Just like with Lightning

  • I designed a cardboard cutter that turns boxes into free cat scratchers
  • Exactly… this printer is useful honey.

    I can make parts for the printer, accessories for filament management for the printer.

    Halloween decorations… once I get the printer back online when I have this mod finished.

    Parts for another printer.

    Mounts for the brooms… when more filament comes in since I used the last of it for the parts for the new printer.

    Save 450 on a unique appliance part they’re not making anymore which now justifies the thousands I’ve spent on this thing.

    Seriously though. It is a fun hobby and if you want to just print and make things and not tinker there are plenty of good options out there. Me? I like tinkering. It’s a blast.

  • I designed a cardboard cutter that turns boxes into free cat scratchers
  • If I don’t design and print something I could buy I might be tempted to do more mods for my printer.

    Things like this give us… balance. Luckily I have a new project… building a Voron so it’s both something new AND printing printer parts.

  • Scumbag Universe
  • A great channel for topics like this.

    This video goes into the expansion of spacetime as well as cover how internally those forces don’t affect local spacetime because of the mass/spacetime curvature.

    Space DOES NOT Expand Everywhere

    Although I have to agree with the top comment regarding this being my favorite channel I don’t understand. But the more I watch it the more I start to get a sense of a lot of it and I actually am understanding some of it

    And yeah, we don’t know what, if there’s anything, it’s expanding into.

  • Mlem scroll issue in 1.3.5 [resolved with update 1.3.6]

    I just updated yesterday to the 1.3.5 release.

    Unfortunately now when I use my thumb to quickly scroll posts and comments it doesn’t respond.

    But if I stop, and move very slowly it does register the scroll. After it finally does scroll then for about 10 seconds or so it behaves normally.

    This doesn’t happen, however, in the top half of the screen. Just the bottom half.

    Thank you again for all the hard work you do on the app.

    I got a singer 8606 from a yard sale and am having trouble finding a manual online and what parts work with it?

    E.g. compatible bobbins, needles, etc.

    [EFF] User Generated Content and the Fediverse: A Legal Primer
    www.eff.org User Generated Content and the Fediverse: A Legal Primer

    A growing number of people are experimenting with federated alternatives to social media like Mastodon, either by joining an “instance” hosted by someone else or creating their own instance by running the free, open-source software on a server they control. (See more about this movement and joining....

    I found this interesting and was wondering how some of the larger instances handle the issues they outline such as

    Copyright/DMCA Safe Harbor CSAM Law enforcement/warrants/info inquiries

    And not included (since it’s focus is on US legal issues) but I’m curious about would be other regulations such as EU user data retention
