Implants are non-magnetic. Wrecks the image, though.

They are EU founding members.
- Comment on Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life 2 months ago:
Just use a cheese slicer. You’ll find out that it’s impossible to cut cheese with a knive to the same sliceness.
- Comment on How do you objectively tell if a parents "I love you" is actually sincere, if they actually care about you? Or if the words are lies and they don't actually care? 2 months ago:
If they tell you they love you, they love you. But there are many, many different kinds and aspects of love, many ideas what love is. If they tell you “we love you” but you cannot feel or sense this love, you are both using the same word, but not the same idea of love. Or maybe you have even the same idea what love means, but have different ways and needs how to express and experience this love.
The key would be not to doubt their love but to discuss and reflect with them what they mean when they say “We love you”, how they try to show you their love, how they want you to show your love, how you want them to show their love.
Sadly, for most people such conversations are very hard, if not next to impossible. Counseling, mediation or therapy can be helpful, if you’ve got access to any.

@gigachad@sh.itjust.works has a point, though. I agree with you that love is expressed by words, but I also agree with them that words alone are meaningless if not backed by loving behaviour.
- Comment on FOSS Hashtag Generator 3 months ago:
If you want software that analyses an image and produces tags that describe the image’s content, you want a combination of image recognition, image interpretation, text generation and a promp generator to link these three parts. There is no way that any single of these applications can be “lightweight”, not to speak of the combination.

They usually feed the mom, IIRC.

Now include perclude and reclude! (Ok, I’m afraid English forgot to loot the last two from Latin’s pockets, after she robbed her in a dark alleyway)

Only for the real thing. [Reenactors]m.youtube.com/watch?v=yZusqHYkVgU) don’t want to wreck their wrist and feet and use ropes for suspension and nails for show. A pretty damaging show, still.
- Comment on Easter can't come soon enough. 3 months ago:
Well, they did use ropes, so this technique would work.
I’m not entirely sure that there are no religious fanatics who reenact the crucifixion. Using ropes for fixation and putting nails through the center of the palm, they would avoid crippling their hands severely.

Only problem – which year? They’ve got different lengths.
- Comment on Fictional 3 months ago:
Just use the speed of light as base and measure the distance in time units (implying *c). 100 psc (lightpicoseconds) are a bit more than 1⅛ inch, 4 ~ 1 mm, 1 nsc (lightnanosecond) is 1 foot or 29.9 cm, 1 μsc (lightmicrosecond) ~ 299 m. Would be totally possible. Within city boundaries we should introduce a speedlimit of 1 pc (picolightspeed), pretty easy to implement.

Come on, you are able to analize words! Fun is obviously fun, and ding is obviously an abbreviation for dingbats, so fun-ding is having fun with dingbats!
- Comment on Don't fix the problem just change the parameters 3 months ago:
If you were used to analog clocks, you’d read the remaining time just off the clock. As you would just read the time off it – no need for any translation or comparison, just one glimpse and you’d know it. For several decades this superiority of analog clocks was a main argument against the use of digital clocks. Digital clocks are more precise, though.
- Comment on The C programming language is like debating a philosopher and Python is like debating someone who ate an edible 4 months ago:
That’s just a fancy way of commenting on the intended types, no static typing though.
Python will happily execute:
six: int = 6 six = "Hello World!"

IIRC, the current theory is that stars do not move apart, but that space itself expands, which generates the impression that they move apart.
- Comment on Do boycotts work? 4 months ago:
Well, back in the day they successfully ousted Mr. Boycott by boycotting him. So at least the first boycott successfully worked.
- Comment on do you remember a time when societies were so polarized and shifted so much to the right like today? How long did it last? 4 months ago:
I’d say all of history until 1968?

- Comment on Trump posted this in Truth. 5 months ago:
They will. Autocrats love public applause, and what public applause is greater than a 90+ % vote? Or do you know of any autocracy that does not have a ritual of approval called elections?
Well, granted, military dictatorships usually don’t do this election thing. With all this ICE buildup, Department of War renaming, declaring war on gangs while redifining the Venuzuelan government as gang, and this Chipocalypse stuff Trump is cosplaying more and more as an unhinged warlord. I’m afraid you might be right.
- Comment on Trump posted this in Truth. 5 months ago:
Next US presidential elections.
- Comment on Trump posted this in Truth. 5 months ago:
There will be elections. All autocrats love elections. Being reelected with 90+ % just feels too good to not have them.
