My GI tract always hates bananas, for whatever reason. That’s my main con.

Categorizing dinosaurs as birds is pointless, anyway. Categorizing birds as extant dinosaurs… now that is much cooler.

Do you just setup a tunnel?

It broke me somewhat. Finishing that at 2 AM and having work the next day… not my best decision.
I’ve seen the 'true ending video. I just wish at got to see a sequel someday. Until then, I’ll have to try replaying and collecting the various things I missed.

You definitely should! It’s challenging but short; it’ll be over before you know it. And I’m someone who struggles to finish most media.

Somehow I’ve still got both… and house centipedes.

I just finished Stray, which is a masterpiece. So it’s not been that long, honestly.

Apparently we do.

It just seems like the considerate thing, but what do I know.

Ever since weed was legalized in my area, downtown has been an array of weed smells on every other street. It’s quite upsetting. Idk how it’s even possible for it to linger in open air in a way that cigarettes don’t.

You say that, but…
I just got an email from my building saying that someone has been smoking weed in the hallways and in apartments (with shared HVAC); it reeks.
The first floor is a daycare center for kids with special needs.
I guess some people really need to be told that these things are not okay.

I know there are different types of vaccines, but really, experience should be enough to prove this assumption wrong many times over. I guess people just don’t get their flu shots…

What you were taught “Flu shots give you the flu”
What we know now A common misconception…
“Updated understanding emerged around 2020”
Updated for whom? Anti-vaccine idiots?

I just picked up a book on this! There is, of course, an incredibly racist history to the use of these concepts.

Is there a Best of Lemmy? This should definitely be on there. Kudos.
- Comment on How often do guys have a haircut? 1 month ago:
Curly hair, so it often looks shorter than it is. I let it grow until it gets heavy enough to be annoying. 6 months to a year, maybe.

I think intelligence could be malleable to a degree. Neural plasticity is pretty powerful, and we’re still on the cutting edge of figuring that stuff out.

Memory is often used as a facade to demonstrate intelligence that lacks thinking, though.

I remember those, it was a subverted ‘How to’ channel. Maybe hacks in the name?

Unfortunately my account never managed to work/register properly. And now it never will. :(

Didn’t Ramanujan write to a Cambridge professor? His English would be great. Colonial India—a lot of elites would’ve had knowledge of English.
