  The reason this happens is because the tiny gaps between the leaves act as lenses, like in a pinhole camera.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do we still joke about setting up old wooden guillotines?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Why am I thinking of a d4a/InheritanceMachining crossover episode?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PRAISE HIM⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  But can He really come in many forms?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Don't forget to turn purple and remove your arms⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Bringing my terrible standing posture into sleeping positions sounds brilliant.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Hey, Bread Guy, do you know the Mango Guy?

  This made me imagine a dessert recipe called Pie à la Hitler.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Excel's AI: 20% of the time, it works every time⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  $20 of the time

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Has this ever happened to you?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This tracks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨FlatEarthers will work around it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Butter side down.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨THEY'RE EVOLVING⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Just wait until they build one on the back of a snail.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If A.I. is so fast and efficient, and CEOs are paid so much, why not replace CEOs with A.I.?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You'd probably get fewer hallucinations.

  ... Wouldn't the flight path be over the South Pole?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In which ways the dot com craze of the late 90s and the current AI market differ? In which ways are the same phenomena?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They differ in one major way: the economy was straight booming in the late 90s, and not in just a "rich people passing more money around amongst themselves" way. That dot com boom did end with a bunch of startups going bust, but it was also part of the process of building the internet we have today. Lots of hardware, lots of cabling, lots of towers, lots of people employed in making, installing, configuring, maintaining. In the end, the dot com boom created something.

  This "AI" thing is a lot more "pouring barrels of money into literal incinerators".

  I'll get my pikey.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that only by being yourself will you find people who like the real you. No one can beat you at being you, but you’ll only ever be second best at pretending to be someone else.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That last bit reveals something important.

  Be yourself unless you’re too weird. There will be no elaboration on what “too weird” is.

  So here we all are, every day wondering “Am I too weird?” and not daring to find out lest we be shunned.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that only by being yourself will you find people who like the real you. No one can beat you at being you, but you’ll only ever be second best at pretending to be someone else.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This is easy (read: privileged) advice to follow if you're entirely self-sufficient. Most people aren't. Most people need things from other people, which means that they have to tailor their words and actions accordingly, so that they're not cut off from resources.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨whatever happened to in-store coffee grinders?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You can even get a workable burr grinder for ~$40.

  I didn't know that Kevin from JYD had dyslexia or pottery skills.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Extremists are using Discord to radicalize American youth, officials warned this year⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Revolutions are never "legal".

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Extremists are using Discord to radicalize American youth, officials warned this year⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I'm being radicalized by a fascist government. But I'm not a "youth".

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rise up⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Live and learn. You won't make the same mistake again.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rise up⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, I just read it. I blame society.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rise up⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don't even know what you're talking about, but whatever it is, you're still here (in a "cosmic" sense, if you feel like fucking off from fediverse, you do you), and that's what matters.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mermaid Diaries⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  TIL! Thank you! It does look a lot like a young cuttlefish, though.

  Obvious troll is obvious.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨whats your dumb purchases?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you manage to find one, there's a modification you can do to it so that it will also take US quarters. Mine seems to have already had that modification before I got it, so I can't say how involved it is, but I don't think it's too hard.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just a shit post⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Now I know you're just pulling all of your posts out of your ass.
