  • There is an instance like that - lemmit.online. It's been going for three years and it's still a ghost town.

  • You can still choose one that talks to everybody else. In fact, this graphic might be a nice tool for new users who want advice beyond "Just choose any instance, it doesn't matter" or "Just use lemmy.world".

  • This is cool, thanks!

  • The Explainxkcd for this lead me to the Wikipedia article for Block and tackle, which lead me to Block (sailing), whose first paragraph is giving me Plumbus vibes:

    In sailing, a block is a single or multiple pulley. One or a number of sheaves are enclosed in an assembly between cheeks or chocks. In use, a block is fixed to the end of a line, to a spar, or to a surface. A line (rope) is reeved through the sheaves, and maybe through one or more matching blocks at some far end, to make up a tackle.

  • Yeah, if no side was facing up they'll have to reroll.

  • If it's a good as the Low End Theory proposed by Tip & Dawg et al. in 1991, I'll give it a listen.

  • You ever say to yourself, "I've been taking to myself a lot lately"? Because I did today.

  • And left top

  • Source is from 4 years ago so i don't think so.

  • I wouldn't know anything about that here in siʔaɬ.

  • Did anyone else read "courier" with a silent r?

  • We're leeching knowledge.

  • Here's a question I thought of to ask people at parties: what is the time of night (or day I suppose) where you're just as likely to be staying up late as to be getting up early? In other words, sort of the midpoint between your latest bedtimes and earliest mornings. I think mine would be around 5 AM.

  • Bee flies? I sure hope it does!

  • The whole thing is about consciousness, the chapters are exploring different aspects and queries about it.

    edit: exploring, not exploiting

  • I read A Brief Tour of Human Consciousness by V. S. Ramachandran a long time ago and found it super interesting. Might be a bit dated by now though.

  • Reminds me of the classic dad joke, to be told when driving by a cemetery:

    "Did you know the people who live around here aren't buried in this cemetery?"

    "Why not?"

    "Because they aren't dead yet."
