The call is coming from inside the (white) house.

Dont dead open inside

Dude it looks like a Halloween Rubber Ducky tipped onto its front… ofc I am.

As soon as I retire, every single one of the multiple hundred games in my steam library will be a game for at least one retired person… except the ones I don’t like and don’t play anymore, like PAYDAY 2.

Human fusion technology currently only works with heavy hydrogen isotopes (deuterium and tritium in neutronic fusion). Fusion of normal hydrogen requires pressures and temperatures we’re unable to control at the moment.

Aneutronic fusion is currently explored in fusing hydrogen and bor, this results in clean helium-4 and no neutron radiation, meaning it leaves no radioactive waste. But it needs temperatures FAR exceeding the core of the sun and it’s self-cooling via Bremsstrahlung, so it’s nowhere near a working technology.

Ah puh, he gets a lot of resting in on his way down the mountain.

Oh absolutely, Camus can be soul-crushing if you believe that hope and reason are an innate part of the universe, let me quote Wikipedia:

The essay contains an appendix titled “Hope and the Absurd in the work of Franz Kafka”. While Camus acknowledges that Kafka’s work represents an exquisite description of the absurd condition, he claims that Kafka fails as an absurd writer because his work retains a glimmer of hope.

But Camus work is beautiful in its entirety and he makes a good case for “the universe in and of itself is hopeless and it is pointless, but it’s also huge and beautiful and filled with wonder. Go and enjoy it” the entirety of the ending is:

I leave Sisyphus at the foot of the mountain! One always finds one’s burden again. But Sisyphus teaches the higher fidelity that negates the gods and raises rocks. He too concludes that all is well. This universe henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile. Each atom of that stone, each mineral flake of that night filled mountain, in itself forms a world. The struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a man’s heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.

In my eyes it’s about finding your own reason, your own point and your own hope in the daily pointless struggle of existence.

Nice one.

The struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man’s heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.

Define kind.

Those are the results of keeping individuals of both species and opposite sex in the same enclosure. The reproduction part happened all by itself.

Allow me to make one thing perfectly clear: If you insert those symbols into my perfectly working website… only to mess with me and inadvertently give me vietnam-style flashbacks to the days when I had to deal with incredibly badly formed and misencoded CSV-files on the daily…

Then I will find you and break into your home to replace every second sock with one of the same color and pattern but slightly different make, size or material and you will always wonder why you can’t find any exactly fitting pairs of socks anymore.

Someone needs to follow people like that around with a camera for weeks. And when they inevitably crack, just ask if they have anything to hide and state that in a public place all privacy goes out the window.

Oh yeah! Soooo many of the things that make Cat cool she learned as the Squire to the Black Knight. I love his worldview, his genre-savy and blunt pragmatism.

His little speech of why he chose Catherine over Akua is just Chef’s kiss

I chose you Catherine Foundling, because I remember what it’s like… that feeling in your stomach when you look at the world around you and you know you could do better.

The things Heiress knows, you can learn. Will learn.
But that indignation you have boiling under your skin?
That is not something that can be taught.
And that is exactly why, when the time comes… you will beat her.

Obscure? I think every gamer in my age group (Xennials) knows the leader of NOD.

Catherine Foundling, the Protagonist of A Practical Guide to Evil.

But I don’t know if this counts. Catherine has only the best intentions and many Heros are kinda Dicks in PGtE. She definitely causes a lot of (what she considers) necessary suffering to end unnecessary suffering. And in-universe she undeniably is a Villain, but as the villain protagonist it’s hard to argue that she’s on the same page as villain antagonists.

But in terms of reach, Fox News and conservative talk radio trump them all.

But “around here” is representative of what? 5% of voters? 16% of democratic voters max? Let’s not pretend Lemmy users represent a sizable number of democratic voters.

They… they don’t though. It’s similar, but not identical… you know, like Fingerprints…

You’re in Lem-fuckin’-my. You come from Reddit. You quoted a good ol’ movie. There is no way I am not going to upvote.

Damn you Elon!
