A self-elected mouthpiece that thrives on spreading hatred that has cause immerse damage and suffering for innocent people is shot by one of his own people. He died by consequence of the violence he was promoting against others.

The only ones I sympathise with are his children because they didn’t choose their parents and they will have his legacy on their shoulders. His wife and his friends and colleagues and his followers can go fuck themselves ass to eye with a spork.

And their CEO thinks music is a product that costs next to nothing to make so it’s okay to screw artists over for his billionaire pay check.

Fuck Spotify. Tell everybody you know to use alternatives. Qobuz, Tidal, Deezer…

Hmm… Masculine.

Hmm… Cutesy femboy.

If we’d manage to communicate with parallel universes, would it matter if they are all real or simulations along with ourselves?

How could we possibly interact with any machinery sophisticated enough to be our entire universe or the parent universe where these machines can be conceived?

It’s like pacman breaking out of assembly language and figuring out how to sneak out of the arcade.

Fictionally, sure. Realistically, humans could hack a simulated universe like fish can hack the aquarium.

Including the Abrahamic religions except people are simple and have rewritten the mindboggling idea “can not comprehend” to punishable dogma “must not mention by name, gaze upon, depict”.

Exactly. Even if it was definitely proven that this is all a simulation, there is exactly zero chance humans could ever break out of it or hack or exploit or even begin to understand the machine the simulation is running on. We have still not even figured out the rules for our universe and understanding what the real universe where this is a simulation is way beyond the scope of human understanding. We could not affect it in any meaningful way except maybe some laboratory tests or cause some hideous corruption. Yet we think and feel and experience living in the only way we know. Hence, I’d argue it would not matter.

Counter question; would it make any difference?

I wouldn’t call it dumb but maybe expecting too much from people now that convenience and hand holding is expected at all times.

*Canned laughter that fades into awkward reflective silence.*

It was a sarcasm.

We the people that want a finished product with distribution and a good eco system from day zero. It must be next gen hardware and be priced more than competitively.

I get a new banner every time I reload so it might be unrelated to the project.

But it’s been a thing with a lot of open source software the last years to have weird anime and hentai bullshit¹ in them and asking the developers to to think twice renders a wall of horny geeks calling names.

Take a moment to think about the good things you have. Bring this state of mind in your daily ventures. Notice more good things you have not thought about before. Imagine life without. Think of people living without them. Appreciate that you have them.

Wild strawberries grow small and give very tasty little fruits. They are easy to grow on a balcony though quite dramatic and need plenty of water when there is sun and heat. First year they didn’t give almost any fruit but second year on I have a handful of harvest daily all of late summer. Very satisfying.

I’ve tried having small bushes of goose berries but they got hit with mildew, probably because there wasn’t enough exchange of air.

Try different things, see what works where you are.

Grey rocking is the best strategy to get rid of all annoying people. Do not engage, do not give them any fuel, do not give them any satisfaction. Be as boring and unexciting as you can possibly be until they lose interest in you.

Be aware of Die Antwoord controversies and them being horrible people.

Pick some fresh berries from my balcony planter. Do a little happy dance while eating them.

I’m a 50+ y/o man.
