Also she actually had to do some work. Where's the fun in that?

I read somewhere that people in Asia won't tilt on things like eye or hair colour being different immediately since their so used to black hair/brown eyes that they just filter it out and use other cues.

This also means that people who look identical to say a European are considered to look nothing alike.

Sorry (ok maybe not) but Godot uses an internal script that resembles Python, with optional .net bindings.

The .net bindings are c# native.

You could use f#, but if you're still learning the ropes that's setting yourself up to fail, since it'll limit the use of documentation and add a high hurdle to clear

It takes less fuel to eject him out of the solar system. No need to be wasteful.

For me this is the crux of the issue:

To Galloway, neither the left nor the right — which can seem compelling to rudderless young men — are providing a genuine alternative. “The far right conflate masculinity with cruelty,” he says, referencing Tate and Vladimir Putin. “The far left thinks that men should, quite frankly, act more like women. Neither of those is productive.”

Men, especially young men, today are stuck in a no man's land where they know that the toxicity of the past is not what's socially acceptable, but no one's giving them a model of what they can be. They are collateral damage of the culture wars.

Andrew Tate (just writing that name feels dirty) and his clique are exploiting this to cultivate hate and toxicity, but the traditional feminist approach that "Men should get in touch with their feminine side" will leave them isolated socially from their peers and emotionally.

The middle road will not be feminine and won't be the traditional masculine role that's still very present in culture, but will be a place where men can confidently own their vulnerability.

Edit: spelling

Just checked on google, it's slang for prostitution.

My bet is that in 2 years we'll see a stark devide in talent in traditional Vs remote first companies with the latter getting pick of the litter so to speak.

Malicious compliance, I like it.

Clearly enough are that this problem is pervasive accross several police forces. It's clearly the case in the US, and we have a similar problem with the Police National in France (bizzarly, the Gendarmerie who performe policing outside the cities and are a part of the armed forces seem to have far less issues in this regard...)

And honestly I prefer the lemmy experience which has soo much less toxicity.

Yes and no.

The simple fact that you're not using IE6 on MSN with Bing search to access a Windows server is more or less proof that the constraints placed on Microsoft at that time did actually have an impact (even if I felt robbed that the company wasn't split up at the time).

Today the one thing Microsoft is still dominante in is Office software (and even then Google docs is snapping at their heals).

OS? Android is more popular than windows Server OS? Linux rules the roost Browser? Chrome

The company that really needs scrutiny ATM is Google.

The point is that they've established a relationship between o16 levels and temperature, so if you've got twice the o16 then say it was 25% warmer (made up ratio, I haven't read the study).

This doesn't tell us what the air temperature was, but it does tell us what it wasn't (IE upper and lower bounds).

When you have several of these proxies it helps narrow down the temperature range (think how your god works better when you have more satellites).

Now if you know that the last seven days are the hottest on record and you know from your proxies that you are outside of temperatures of the past 100k years then it's a pretty safe bet to state that we're at the hottest time in the past 100k years.

There is no melodrama or lying in this fact, unfortunately.
