Is this satire? SoaD is one of the most political bands I know?

in my experience,

yeah, that’s the issue. anecdotal evidence.

Also science is full of arrogant people, both males and females.

Not really.

You can have it, but then everyone has to scale the other two slices by 1/0.75 since they now make up 100% of the pizza.

Imagine a pizza. The pizza is 1. You cut the pizza into three slices: two slices are 1/4 (0.25) of the size of the pizza, the other slice is 2/4 (0.5) of the size of the pizza. We’ll ignore one of the 1/4 slices for this question, as we don’t need it.

Compare the 0.25 slice and the 0.5 slice, this problem is essentially asking “how many times can I fit the 0.5 slice into the 0.25 slice?”, the answer to this is obviously… 0, if you’re thinking in integers. Okay, but how much of the 0.5 slice could you fit in…? Half (0.5) of it. So 0.5 fits 0.5 times into 0.25.

Half of the slice that’s twice as big as the 0.25 slice fits into the 0.25 slice.

Edit: Gone back and read other comments and… Holy shit y’all, have some compassion for people who struggle with maths? Nobody is helped or motivated by snarky comments. A concept that is easy to grasp for you might be difficult to understand for someone else for a variety of reasons. Somewhat relevant xkcd.

What’s best is probably hosting your own git server (for hopefully obvious reasons).

I was talking about the window in the picture in the comment I replied to.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but that style of window doesn’t allow you to open it fully, right?

Is there a banpitbulls community on lemmy yet?

Not sure for iOS, but on Android you can put the stopwatch widget on your home screen if you use it a lot, makes it easier to reach. Not as easy as a dedicated stopwatch, but an option if you don’t want one but use the feature a lot.

Liszt.

Someone else here said to spend time reflecting, but I found this only made things (edit) worth worse for myself.

My secret weapon is distraction, it’s the only thing that truly helps when I’m in a, uh, dangerous (for me) mood. Distracting yourself with things you love doing helps distancing yourself from the situation and makes you realise there is more to life than your ex.

No amount of talking about my feelings or reflecting on the relationship has helped me as much as listening to music, drawing, baking, exploring new online communities etc.

You know how people will say if you start lying to yourself that you’re great and happy, you’ll eventually start believing it? It’s similar to that, I think, you remind yourself often enough that there are other things you love and that make life worth living.

So, yeah, time + filling your life to the brim with things and activities you love.

I told myself the same lie, week after week, until some day I realised it wasn’t a lie anymore.

Really feels like bottom of the barrel r/funny stuff, the kinda stuff we really don’t need to be bringing back…

Also if your partner just died for three days I think you should get a pass at being angry and upset but maybe temporary death is more common than I thought.

I’m not sure if this is a joke or not, but in case it isn’t: Windows isn’t stable at all, third party drivers or not. I’ve never had a Windows PC that I would describe as stable, including the preconfigured laptops and towers I’ve had. They all bluescreen and crash or freeze more or less regularly (but stability isn’t what I care about when I run Windows).

Whatever the fuck my brain runs. It’s done a pretty okay job keeping me alive, and that’s worth something, right?

Some bonafide boomer humor…

It’s also bullshit, we still have “realistic” art, but we let people express themselves however they want nowadays. Whether that is by painting the beauty of human life or trying to capture feelings in geometric shapes is up to the artist. That’s a good thing. We don’t need to put down art we don’t vibe with, and nobody is forcing people to enjoy or relate to “modern” art.

(Also I just want to shake every person who says “tHiS Is nOt ArT” about some piece they don’t like because oh my god art is whatever you want it to be and doesn’t follow some set of rules)

Either this is very lukewarm satire or one of the dumbest boomer comics I’ve ever seen.

Bubble tea. Expensive, but so good on a hot day…
