  • It gets even more interesting: to interfere in the double slit experiment, the light has to take a longer path for some points and light is really good at finding the shortest path. And, since you can extend the double slit experiment to infinite slits with infinitely thin blockers between the slits, you can leave away the slits entirely and still have a valid version of that experiment and get interference. It’s just, that most interference is destructive.

    Veritasium had a very interesting video about that recently and my extrapolation of this is that there is neither a collapse of wave functions nor multiple parallel universes.

    My intuition says that the wave function is there after being “observed”. There is no multiple possible outcomes, just very visible ones and a lot of destructive interfered ones.

    However what i just wrote is not science but me extrapolating from science so don’t take it for anything more than that. It somehow causes quantum physics to make intuitive sense for me so i like it. Nothing more than that.




  • Especially then. What souls gets realistic is the sizing up the enemy before clashing. Our flights usually were: pace back and forth together waiting for an opportunity/bait with an opportunity. Then execution of each person’s plan was over in a flash and either one landed a hit or you separated again, going back to pacing. But a plan of a person usually was not a single hit unless you were just probing for their reaction.

    For example my favourite thing to do, was lowering the point of my sword (you usually start with tips touching uwu), baiting the opponent to attack the opposite side of were my tip was moving, the snapping the tip back up to hit the opponents incoming sword close to the handle, transferring a lot of kinetic energy into a fairly static part of their blade, thus moving their hands and influencing their whole arc such that their blade passes over me. Now i have to be very quick to attack them while repositioning into a new defensible line towards them to not get hit by their hit after recovery. This whole interaction would take about a second or less maybe.

    Then there’s also the thing not really represented in souls at all which is driving your opponent through the hall. So if you attack and your opponent does only manage to block, you sometimes keep going to not give them the time to counter attack, and each swing carries you quite far which causes them to have to walk backwards very fast, to keep in blocking distance and not get into grapple range. This phrase usually has 3-4 hits a second and is quite tiring but being the one attacking usually is the winning move while the defending person has to get creative to get back into the attacking position.

    I now realize that talking about sword fighting in English is quite tiring as i don’t know the terminology outside of German






  • There was hope in the last government but in addition to the greens the coalition also contained the liberal party FDP in control of finances and they manipulated the government from within by blocking everything good the rest of the government wanted to do. Their plan to make the greens unliked ended in their own party becoming irrelevant for the future. Also a lot of supposedly Islamic terrorism happened very frequently in the run-up to the election after the government broke apart and shifted the political climate further and further right.

    Now after the election put the conservative party in power, the supposedly Islamic terrorism just stopped and nothing happened since 🤔

    Couple that with Axel Springer press rags doing hard propaganda against left and green parties and you see why the greens had a hard time



  • Yes there is. I’d probably never have found out about variant Sudoku without Cracking the Cryptic. I get valuable rock climbing tips from professional climbers and coaches on YouTube and employ them often successfully in the climbing gym. I learn about weird weapons from that blacksmith guy that i can use in my TTRPGs and that’s not even taking about the science channels.

    Of course if you don’t curate your subscribed channels and just browse home it’s probably gonna suck and be full of clickbait







  • It is no one’s business yet people make it their business. If OP gets fired because they get seen giving their partner a kiss or a neighbour outs them then, suddenly their identity is an issue at work. Just because OP has not been outed involuntarily yet, doesn’t mean it won’t affect them in the future. And if OP, for fear of getting fired, is keeping their identity a secret, it is actively affecting them. If a gay dude says to their co-worker “my partner made that cake” instead of “my boyfriend made that cake” because mentioning a boyfriend is a risk to their work it is affecting them.
