That I pronounced it “pre date or” most of my life really sells this showerthought.

I think it’s true for any system. And I’d say mathematics or just logic are simple enough. Every system stems from unprovable core assumptions.

And shortly after that some other guy proved that he was wrong. More specifically he proved that you cannot prove that 1+1=2. More more specifically he proved that you cannot prove a system using the system.

Herzlich Willkommen!
Plus, you don’t have to take vacation days when you’re sick. And when you’re sick during vacation that also doesn’t eat up your vacation days.

“NOT LIKE THAT!”

Our loud elderly neighbour liked to complain about our lawn. Even after I got disabled. Now he fell ill and guess whose plants are growing through the fence?

I remember many kids in my schooldays saying the same and being gaslit by the teacher into thinking they tested incorrectly.

We had to write angry letters to our children’s school about 5 years ago to get them to stop teaching taste regions. It’s really baffling.

In Germany you can actually still count as “youth” until you are 27. i know youth organisations that allow members up to 27. And if you committed a crime you can still be tried as a youth, pending a psychological review.

- Comment on tall tails 3 weeks ago:
Your bones aren’t just swimming around in a sea of muscles. They are attached to the muscles and sinews. So those places where they are attached are formed in specific ways depending on what is attached.
- Comment on Who plays like that x_x 3 weeks ago:
I felt so great when I “discovered” using the numpad for movement to have more buttons available to bind useful stuff to. I think I did that with Jedi Knight. I was so excited, I told all my friends.
Can’t remember when I switched to WASD. Maybe with Unreal and/or Half Life.
- Comment on Borderlands 4 Launches To Mostly Negative Steam Reviews Over Performance Issues And Crashing 3 weeks ago:
It probably doesn’t work with interactable objects and other edge cases. And it for sure doesn’t work with trees because they highlighted in the Witcher 4 showcase how they created a version specifically for trees.
- Comment on How did Luke Skywalker learn to communicate with Astromech droids? How did he learn the language whilst living on Tatooine? 3 weeks ago:
With the way how stupid LLMs are especially with maths I now think it’s actually quite logical how you wouldn’t want something like that in a droid that is mainly meant to do astronomical calculations.
In the novelization of ROTJ it is also revealed that the torture droid in Jabba’s palace instructs C-3PO to just answer yes or no in order to reduce him to binary because that is something protocol droids are ill equipped for. On the other hand he speaks complex sentences to R2, I guess for much the same reason but the other way around.

Clair Obscur and Hellblade 2 also ran great on my Steam Deck. And I suspect Fortnite does as well.
My guess is that developers of the other games just pour in high def assets without using any of UE5’s crazy LoD techniques.

FWIW Germany is already opposing it. I’m pleasantly surprised.
- Comment on Is it possible to “make” someone have seizures? 4 weeks ago:
My friend got a sign from God that he shouldn’t go to church. He didn’t often go to church anyways, but his parents forced him on christmas. But not a minute after being in he collapsed on the ground with seizures.
Some might say it was the stuffy air in a small hall with hundreds of people and maybe bright lights after coming in from the dark winter evening. But we think it was a message from God.
