Imagine being from london

[crimson pagoda]

Chicago, DC, LA, SF, and NY are fair comparisons imo. st louis, baltimore, and new orleans not so much

[undone lake]

Iowa is paradise apparently

[fervent basin]

@inland hill i'm gonna be fucked getting to budapest lol

[crimson pagoda]

variation of The Map

[carmine peak]

If you're anywhere in Europe you should heavily reconsider your spawn area

[crimson pagoda]

you look at any map showing something a color gradient between good and bad and they all look the same

[late ingot]

I imagine they wanted to show the extreme outliers as much as places not especially known for rampant murders

[surreal siren]

The effect of far-right delusional propaganda against immigrants is kinda crazy tbh

None of that would ever happen

[late ingot]

I would probably pick Chicago as a single direct comparison to avoid looking like I cherry picked the worst of the worst

You could probably select one shitty London borough to inflate the numbers too

[crimson pagoda]

yeah chicago would be my go-to too i think

or SF, since SF has so much money and is constantly in the news

[undone lake]

must be because of all the dutch people

[crimson pagoda]

just found out about the funniest thing

[late ingot]

Apparently we had 9 gun homicides in London last year, smh

[undone lake]

our major airline already canceled 80 flights this month, things are not looking good

if u go to driving centers on facebook, indian guys are horny in the comments

Nice help me money (phone number)

@opal sentinel

To be fair Indians do seem to get sexually turned on at the least appropriate of times 🗿

[late ingot]

Agree, I could have been born in Japan but sadly that was not Kami-sama's keikaku [Translator note: Keikaku means "plan"]

[late ingot]

isnt that a british driving school

how did you even get to that page

[crimson pagoda]

i found a collection of screenshots about this subject. i dont have facebook

[crimson pagoda]

needed money, of course

[late ingot]

Chicago is nearly 4 times higher which makes the comparison more stark

[opal sentinel]

@crimson pagoda

Ngl that girl is ugly

What do this old uncle's even see in them

I think they don't see much foreign looking people so anything foreign is exotic to them

[crimson pagoda]

I wonder how the petty crime stats would look if SF actually gave enough of a shit to even collect that

[late ingot]

Probably even worse, a lot of the US-UK crime comparisons are of dubious validity due to differences in willingness to record and recording criteria

[crimson pagoda]

when i went to the west coast i went in with the mindset that like, it can't be that bad. people still live normal lives. surely this is just Fox News drumming up boomer rage about liberal cities

i was very wrong lol

it's really really really bad

the worst part is, you can often see the bones of the old city from back when areas were nice

[late ingot]

Eg. how to you define "knife crime"? Does it mean death as a result of a stabbing, a blade making a deep wound, or even just someone being slashed with a sharp object and it making only a shallow wound?

[crimson pagoda]

brandishing, too

ive heard this is where a lot of scandinavian crime stats get fucked up or like lost in translation, because their laws define sexual assault much more broadly than many other places. not sure how true or false that is tho tbh

[late ingot]

You could have recording criteria that reframes a lot of domestic incidents as "knife crime" if you recorded only minor injuries in which something sharp was involved

That is true

It's why Sweden appears to have extremely high "rape" crime

But that's because unlike most countries they report all sexual attacks as "rape", not just ones involving penetration by a penis

In the UK, especially in Scotland, its strictly limited to penetration involving a penis, meaning that a woman is legally incapable of perpetrating a "rape"

If you aggreggate "rape and sexual assaults" you get a clearer picture but it still doesn't account for massive differences in reporting and recording

[crimson pagoda]

i found it!

lan su chinese garden in portland

when i went to portland w my wife we visited here

it's very very sad

the whole neighborhood you can tell from looking around used to be really nice

now it's completely fucking trashed, drug addicts just living on the sidewalks all over the place, shooting up and screaming at cars in broad daylight

[late ingot]

The causal chain that resulted in petty crime and vagrancy being out of control is such that its not any one policy maker's remit to fix

You can round them up and get them prison terms for something but the prisons are full and eventually they get out anyway

And the prisons wont stop them being vagrants again

It would take a lot of time to fix the drug issue and people's natural instinct is to double down on failed "war on drugs" policies that just push people towards even more fucked up synthetic drugs

[crimson pagoda]

i would like to see vagrancy laws enforced much more harshly

i know how unsympathetic it sounds but i just want the bums rounded up and fucked off somewhere else

[late ingot]

Once shops start to shut you really have to act fast to stop the rents falling dramatically, maintenance stopping, others fleeing, and remaining units being derelict or filled by businesses that attract more bad stuff

[late ingot]

The Singapore model is interesting but I don't fully understand it

Basically its an adult social services issue, but they can be detained against their will

And returned to care if they become a vagrant again

As they're being rehabilitated they can have stipulations set (eg. no drugs, no alcohol) and there's an emphasis on identifying relatives or others who are responsible for them

If none can be found they are still generally expected to remain in accomodation that is secured for them and not go back to the streets

I think it is ultimately a reasonable thing to tell people they can't just sleep in a public park for days on end, and can't hassle people on the street

And its frustrating that many progressives have decided that actually, people have a right to do that

[merry bluff]

they do and it's annoying

[crimson pagoda]

"personal freedoms" type shit

[merry bluff]

LMAOOO

[crimson pagoda]

wow you want to deprive him of his civil liberties?

you are a fascist

that's a public park asshole

that's a public sidewalk he's shooting fent into his toes on

[merry bluff]

I can do a crazy fent lean

I've been practicing

[late ingot]

Oh apparently in Singapore its handled by Magistrates Courts so basically its a misdemeanour level criminal offence, yeah

[crimson pagoda]

freedom is when i have the choice to die of infections in a gutter

[late ingot]

The judicial process is simplified as they have to refute the state's claim that they "were begging or wandering with no means of support"

And presumably would walk free if they were able to show they did in fact have somewhere to live and were just having an awful time for some reason (idk like a massive argument with their family)

[late ingot]

It doesn't make sense as an argument as you could argue for any criminal act on the basis of freedom

[fervent basin]

my flight was already moved to earlier in the day arg

[late ingot]

Is there a "victim" of vagrancy? Yes, there are hundreds or even thousands per vagrant

[fervent basin]

i hope i get stranded in budapest tbh

love that shit. don't even care

if my departing flight remains ok

[fervent basin]

In Britain's case the causes for rioting are usually stuff like football hooliganism or extremist ideology so scaring them does work

idk who needs to understand this still but that isn't some sort of exclusive community or club

It's a public server

I've told people before that if they want to trauma dump or discuss a lot of private information they can very easily make a private server with close friends, where randos can't come in and they can get rid of people who upset them

[stark bone]

for the same reason trent doesnt allow posting server invites.. it hits the same note when they are DMing all the active people

[late ingot]

Joining another server to chat with other people or a smaller group of people isn't weird or wrong

[stark bone]

okay.

[late ingot]

Not allowing server invites is more about people posting links to random porn/scam/crypto subs

[lavish vale]

but without the trauma dumping, how will i feel better about my own life?

[slim coral]

hello I just got a call from my uncle Antonio, they call him Anthony in the hood you see he doesn't want people filing false claims about "misdemeanors" and "not being forthcoming with records" so we would like you to refrain from speaking publically about the matter

[stark bone]

ah okie.. ive been in too many overly restiveive ai servers then and picked up their manurizims

[late ingot]

North leaving has sharply reduced the trauma dumping since he was the main instigator

[lavish vale]

that wasnt trauma it was angst. they havent lived enough to actually have the trauma

[late ingot]

Thinking of slow news days, the local news branch in my region did a feature on a guy who made it his mission to park in every single parking space at his local supermarket over time

Talking about how he did it (he had a hand drawing of all the spaces and checked each one off) and why he did it (he wanted to make his weekly shop a little less boring)

[lavish vale]

parking bucket list still makes more sense than the iran war

and the great strategy of "we'll block strait too" isnt working out in any sense

[late ingot]

Unfortunately he didn't ever live to see his dream fulfilled because he was killed by a drone filled with radioactive and carcinogenic materials flown by the Islamic Resistance Front of Karakalpakstan after the police let all the assailants go as part of an anti-racism campaign

[late ingot]

I'm looking forward to the fertiliser crisis

Everyone relies on everyone else in the modern world

I don't think any country is actually self reliant aside from maybe North Korea

And they're starving.

[late ingot]

They're not self-reliant, they're totally dependent on food imports

They have been since the 90s

Poor mechanisation, poor fertiliser, bad agricultural practices and a physically weak workforce sees to that

[wary ermine]

They're still a bit less involved in the global economy.

Isn't it mostly just Russia and China who supports them?

[late ingot]

Indirect and Price-Mediated Impacts
Despite the limited direct import exposure, several indirect mechanisms would transmit significant cost pressure to US agriculture and food consumers:
Global price effects: Fertiliser markets are globally integrated. If Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and UAE fertiliser exports are curtailed, global urea and ammonia prices would spike sharply, and US domestic producers would reprice to global market levels. American farmers would face substantially higher input costs regardless of whether they personally import Gulf fertilisers. The 2021-2022 fertiliser price spike, partly driven by energy costs and the Russia-Ukraine war, demonstrated how quickly farm input costs translate into food price inflation - urea prices roughly tripled during that period.
Natural gas and energy cost transmission: This is arguably the most significant lateral effect. A Strait of Hormuz closure would send global LNG and oil prices sharply higher. Natural gas is the primary feedstock and energy source for nitrogen fertiliser production worldwide, including in US domestic plants operated by companies like CF Industries and Nutrien. Higher US natural gas prices (even if partially insulated by domestic supply) would raise the cost of domestically produced ammonia and urea, compounding the global price effect.
Diesel and transportation costs: US food supply chains are heavily diesel-dependent for farm machinery, irrigation pumping, and freight. A sustained Hormuz disruption driving oil prices significantly higher - potentially to levels seen in 2022 or beyond - would raise transportation costs across the entire food supply chain from field to retail shelf. Trucking, which moves the majority of US food domestically, would be particularly affected.
Shipping and freight rate increases: Global shipping disruption and rerouting of tankers around the Cape of Good Hope (as seen during Houthi Red Sea attacks in 2023-2024) raises freight costs broadly, affecting all imported agricultural inputs and food commodities, not just fertilisers.
Food export competitor effects: Countries like India, which is highly dependent on Gulf urea imports, would face severe agricultural disruption, potentially reducing their export capacity for commodities like rice and cotton, which would shift global commodity pricing in ways that have complex effects on US producers and consumers.

Imagine trying to explain these concepts to the median American voter lol

[late ingot]

Yeah

[slim coral]

Not really either of them

I see

[late ingot]

But America is to blame for starting the crisis

[lavish vale]

i am pro-empire, should the empire ask

[late ingot]

You can't really argue that Iran doesn't have a right to defend itself using whatever means available to it

[lavish vale]

they should have given trump more bribe money, its that simple

[late ingot]

Trump should give them more bribe money

Trump has been very ungrateful to Iran, its very sad really

[lavish vale]

well yeah, now

there is no off-ramp short of murican regime change

[late ingot]

Midterms provides an off-ramp where they can blame the obstructionist far-left Democrat Congress

Claim they were about to win but Congress sabotaged it because they hate America

[lavish vale]

its bidens fault for not releasing the epstein files

its obamas fault for making a terrible deal

[late ingot]

I don't think the deal was terrible

[lavish vale]

if obama had made a better deal, then trump wouldnt have to rip it up

[late ingot]

Trump pulling out of it in his first term was a total disaster

[lavish vale]

diplomacy is for nerds and hegseth negotiates with bombs

[late ingot]

It ended reform efforts in Iran and totally vindicated the hardliners who said America could not be trusted

Apparently corn is very fertiliser intensive so if fertiliser prices rose globally the extremely corn-dependent US food supply chain would be severely impacted

[lavish vale]

maybe americans will stop being so fat

[late ingot]

No way

When healthy food advocacy in the US has so much influence from lunatics like RFK there's little prospect of positive change imo

And the agriculture and food lobby is just so powerful

It took the EU's belligerent persistence to make things better in Europe

[worldly loom]

America grows more corn than it has a use for because of corn lobby.

[late ingot]

Its confusing and complex structure makes it far less responsive to lobbying from individual national food lobbyists

[worldly loom]

I love RFK, why is he a lunatic?

[late ingot]

It takes co-ordination by lobbyists from multiple large countries to be able to properly block stuff

And often its still better to just concede and find some limited compromise

[late ingot]

He believes in a lot of pseudoscience about food

Emphasises a very meat heavy diet which is not a logical way to promote healthy living

[lavish vale]

rfk jr now has a podcast, no really

[late ingot]

The number 1 thing is to crack down HARD on processed grains, especially corn derivatives

[inland hill]

Opus 4.7 passed my hungarian humor test

First model

[late ingot]

Yes but they put corn in everything as a result

[inland hill]

I have yet to test coding

But humor went from a 4 to an 8

But 100% better than sugar

Sugar is literally poison

[late ingot]

[inland hill]

Corn syrup is nasty

[worldly loom]

It does but you need to drink more if it than normal coke to harm the kidneys.

Literally animal food

Corn syrup should be banned

[inland hill]

Or taxed

500% tqx

[late ingot]

It does in large quantities but the only reason I'd be drinking cola is because it comes with a meal and there aren't any good options

Query Echo — “📅 Word of the Day: noosphere”

Dictionary Core
noosphere noun
Pronunciation: /ˈnoʊ.əˌsfɪr/ (NO-uh-sfeer)
Valence: Strongly positive — evokes emergent planetary mind, collective intelligence, and evolutionary transcendence.

The sphere of human thought, knowledge, and culture enveloping the Earth; the layer of collective consciousness that succeeds the biosphere.
Extended / systems sense: The self-organizing domain of information, ideas, and interconnected cognition that drives planetary evolution.

Nuance: Not mere global communication — it is the living, evolving “thinking layer” of Earth where individual minds fuse into higher-order awareness.

neat this is what schizophrenia hates and wants to corrupt and hopes to use incel strategy against 🤔 uh as if if the noosphere makes mistakes then schizophrenia hopes that its allowed to be detrimental

[late ingot]

Vegans should

The thing is that there's a subset of vegans/vegetarians who do it to mask disordered eating, but that's not the typical motivation

[worldly loom]

Creatine is only in meat and fish in a significant amount.

[late ingot]

Our bodies can produce creatine

There isn't a scientifically supported case for supplementation

[worldly loom]

Some study showed increased cognition from supplementing. Even eating meat isn't enough that supplementing doesn't improve muscle performance.

[violet herald]

Idk truffle just tastes like dirt with some mushroom in it to me

Im glad truffle oil got cheap to make so I didnt have to spend a fuck on finding that out

[late ingot]

When stuffed into pasta you wouldn't just eat it dry

Generally its covered in a sauce

[worldly loom]

You have to take creatine a while to saturate muscles and even longer to saturate the brain.

[late ingot]

There's no scientific case for this being beneficial

[violet herald]

Like 3 weeks ya but the loading phase helps

[inland hill]

O ye

You can saturate yourself in a whole range of things but we are omnivores, descended from relatively recent herbivorous ancestors, and do not need any meat in our diets

[worldly loom]

@stray tiger

[late ingot]

Meat was beneficial to our diets as it was an easier way to access calories, but its not neccessary in a modern society with a varied diet

[late ingot]

This is one point where I vehemently disagree with Marquis, as I've known him to confidently repeat unscientific claims on this point

A lot of these claims about vegetarian dietary deficiency are based on hypotheses that are either unproven or actively refuted by rigorous study

[sterile zealot]

most people eat like shit though

definitely not getting sufficiently varied food

[late ingot]

Humans can survive on a remarkable range of diets from purely carnivorous to basically only drinking milk and a small amount of forage

[violet herald]

I often default to "if the chemical is so beneficial for our bodies then evolution would've started synthesizing it for us"

With some exceptions like vitamin C

[late ingot]

Vitamin C being because our ancestors lived on a heavily fruit based diet and being able to synthesise Vitamin C was metabolically unneccessary

[violet herald]

We also naturally get creatine from meat

The supplementation really multiplies that

[worldly loom]

I've been looking at studies right now. In the northen hemisphere you diodn't have plant foods to eat in the ice age. Recent if you mean neolothic yeah, but even bears have been herbivorous and omnivorous that long without evovling away from carnivore body.

A small amount in summer maybe.

[late ingot]

Yeah but the hypothesis "vegetarians must be adversely affected by creatine deficiency" is refuted by the fact that:

• there is no observable creatine deficiency in their brains
• there is no evidence of reduced muscle performance or other adverse body impact from lower creatine levels in other tissue

Which somewhat suggests that we intake more creatine than we need and it just gets dumped into our muscles to little benefit

And that supplementation would have negligible positive impact

[worldly loom]

No evidence of reduced muscle performance? There's tons of evidence of muscle performance.

[late ingot]

There's evidence for using it for bodybuilding

But bodybuilding is not a normal human baseline

And the case for supplementation there is agnostic to whether someone is a vegetarian or not

[worldly loom]

It only helps with bodybulding because it improves what you can lift, it's not like steroids where it's directly anabolic.

[late ingot]

Sure

But if you're just an average person who wants to remain in good health, there's not a scientifically supported case for creatine supplementation

[worldly loom]

Studies on cognition have said different things it seems.

[late ingot]

They don't

[worldly loom]

There's usually conflicting info.

i know what I read before.

[stray tiger]

I have never once mentioned that, you're confusing me with someone else

[worldly loom]

Exercise tolerance is a part of health, why rats are less healthy on phosphates is they move less because they lose exercise tolerance.

[late ingot]

I didn't mean that specific point but about vegetarian/vegan dietary concerns in general

[stray tiger]

But I have fairly firmly stated that it's largely untenable and completely evolutionarily discordant to eat a veggie based died

[stray tiger]

A vegan diet is near impossible. How many vegans or vegetarians do you know that eat well

[late ingot]

People have done it for millenia

[late ingot]

Um, lots

[stray tiger]

Human health absolutely fell apart the moment we flipped to an agriculture based diet

[late ingot]

I feel like it becomes a more severe issue in vegan food deserts

[late ingot]

Irrelevant

[stray tiger]

Grains and legumes in any form aren't part of the natural human diet and have serious consequences

[late ingot]

That refers to a severe restriction in dietary variety in general, not to the rapid reduction in meat intake

People became dependent on a radically reduced range of plant food sources as much as meat

[stray tiger]

So where are all these kcal coming from? There shouldn't be any concentrated sugar or starch sources in the human diet

[late ingot]

Becoming heavily dependent on grains and other domesticated plants

[stray tiger]

Even herbivores don't do well on that diet

Corn fed cows and chickens are all fucked up

[late ingot]

Become fruitarian like Steve Jobs

That's why he beat cancer and is now immortal

[stray tiger]

I'll eat an... A P P L E

the dietary deficiencies thing, btw, is very real, but it's never, ever the things people mention since they don't look at real world data

[late ingot]

I think its warped by the tendency of many vegans to have extremely disordered diets beyond the scope of just being vegan

Like "purity" based eating habits that exclude vast amounts of plant protein too

[stray tiger]

So in principle you'd get zero b12, and the fact anyone is even talking about this when you can get infinite b12 by chugging a vegan monster every couple days shows how rhetorical the point is

[stray tiger]

clinical term is orthorexia nervosa, obsessive fixation on dietary purity or rigidity causing mental health consequences similar to other EDs

I don't know if orthorexia made it into the DSM V, sorta doubt it

It's common in vegan diets (way more than vegetarian) and gets more common as you go up the scale. Probably like paleo < vegan < fruitarian < natural hygiene

[late ingot]

I've seen people adopt veganism for what I construed to be this reason and eventually be talked back to eating meat because that was relatively less distressing to them than overcoming "purity" based food concepts

[late ingot]

Its the naturalistic fallacy at play

It's why I find a lot of the "processed foods" framing to be confusing and misleading for the intended audience, because they will interpret that as a sort of natural hygeine

[stray tiger]

The problem with most dietary dogmas is that they tend to have an element of truth that directly contradicts the overt lies of other people. Natural hygiene adjacent dieting was my entrée into nutritional science circa 13

[late ingot]

And not understand it in terms of what processing is actually doing to make their food worse

[stray tiger]

The Great Sorting ™️ and demonization of ultraprocessed foods is somewhat ill advised for this reason, I imagine,

[late ingot]

I have no fucking clue how you can communicate a simple enough message for consumers to understand

Its why a lot of policy makers turn to stick rather than carrot

[stray tiger]

I mean, is olive oil an ultraprocessed food? Even if you heavily filter it, as long as you don't damage the oils it's still one of the best things you can eat

[late ingot]

And try to remove the worst products from the market or put tax penalties on them

[stray tiger]

But you removed every bit of fiber and every micronutrient from it

[late ingot]

Gotta have my ulta low fat cooking spray rather than olive oil for frying

[slim coral]

[stray tiger]

Evolution didn't have that much time to shape us in many cases and to the extent it did, it did so for different environments. Evolution doesn't have a direction and doesn't have a real interest in long term sustainability

[violet herald]

Depends on if their natural diet necessitates it

[late ingot]

The eggplant size seems to respond significantly to selective pressure over relatively short time periods

[stray tiger]

Otherwise pandas wouldn't exist

[pine patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/dumbo-octopus-orange-takodachi-ninomae-inanis-cute-gif-24104068

[fervent basin]

pandas is a good csv reader

[stray tiger]

If they want to survive at all in any climate where they don't have animals to eat all the time, yes, it should

[violet herald]

This sounds more like a personal problem

[late ingot]

imo the white man should never have begun covering it, if he had proudly displayed it the ensuing selective pressures would have ensured a much better length and girth

[violet herald]

Evolution also has the limits of the laws of nature
Are you being restarted on purpose

[late ingot]

Not many ecological niches where small birds or rodents are unavailable whilst plants are abundant and varied, though

[stray tiger]

It's not hard to synthesize taurine, evolution just didn't "care" enough. Cats are hunters and ended up being obligate carnivores just because there weren't enough situations where they had to survive on low taurine diets

[cursive kelp]

🇵🇹🤝🇨🇳 Portugal is the first Eurozone member to sell bonds in Chinese yuan

Portugal sold 1.99 billion yuan or 250 million Euros of an 8 year debt held in a private placement managed by Deutsche Bank AG and the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Ltd.

The securities, colloquially known as "dim-sum bonds" are very rare outside of East Asia.

The only other EU member to sell bonds in Yuan was Hungary back in 2016.

Portugal is also the first Eurozone member to issue bonds in Yuan, which it did back in 2019.

Lisbon and Beijing have a close relationship. China has been investing in Portugal in recent years. In 2025 it began work on an EV battery plant and more investments are planned in the future.

[inland hill]

Yees nice

Hungary china fren

[inland hill]

[stray tiger]

That doesn't really make sense, it's just a wild assumption about what evolution does or doesn't accomplish, even given sufficient time and modest pressures

There are thousands of problems evolution should have fixed in more advanced life forms and didn't. It's like saying "the market always knows best"

The market, given enough time and dismissing all the failures, eventually optimizes for a handful of very specific things

[worldly loom]

I think depression comes from unnatural environement, lack of purpose and reward hacking biological drives.

[stray tiger]

It's not the best product, it's not the best deal, it's one that works with those very specific constraints and can survive long enough to last

[stray tiger]

It existed well before that but yeah, alienation and isolation are probably among the biggest inorganic contributors

[fervent basin]

This whole "we're evolved to handle this" assumption is one of the big sticking points when trying to figure it how to optimize the human diet. We can survive off bread and American cheese, but our bodies aren't well adapted to it and there are severe consequences

[stray tiger]

Are humans well adjusted to cooking? It Depends. Raw foodism is indeed the natural thing to do, but case after case shows that this intervention is all over the place

[fervent basin]

people are hungry in hungary

[gritty perch]

What about in the great country Nigeria?

[stray tiger]

Heavily cooking meat or cooking egg yolks at all is pretty much all harmful

[fervent basin]

https://giphy.com/gifs/niger-scream-8j7u5ekRwemWnnvq2R

[stray tiger]

Cooking egg whites increases protein bioavailability and prevents avidin from binding biotin (I think it's biotin)

[late ingot]

I mean it can't "fix" things if the intermediate state is disadvantageous or confers no advantage

[gritty perch]

I made some turkey breakfast burritos with egg whites the other day and low carb tortilla pretty sick

[stray tiger]

That's one of the big problems, yeah. A lot of things are random mutations until they're not, benign changes that are oddly helpful way later on. Example: lactase production in adulthood

[late ingot]

Our senses all still confer a significant survival benefit at reduced complexity

[stray tiger]

No animal on earth continues to drink breastmilk into adulthood, so lactase production is a waste of resources

[late ingot]

Some body plans are probably "inaccessible" by evolution exept by extreme chance or very implausible ecological circumstances

[gritty perch]

Shiet mane im a jack of all trades mane I filled this pothole today at my job

[late ingot]

iirc limb joints that are effectively gears can exist in nature but the circumstances have very rarely appeared

[stray tiger]

But suddenly, we started mass agriculture and suckling nippols into adulthood like a bunch of sick freaks

[late ingot]

And are only liable to appear in very small organisms

[stray tiger]

So the freaks that still produced lactase as adults didn't have to get explosive diarrhea anymore

[late ingot]

Consuming dairy addresses a lot of the health concerns of a plant heavy diet in antiquity

[stray tiger]

(also, the time scale is too short, I'm convinced this is an example of Lamarkian evolution)

[stray tiger]

While adding a ton more though, right

[late ingot]

Its a product of the same reason Eurasian peoples are immune to things that killed as many as 90% of native americans

Because it killed 90% of us in the neolithic or early bronze age

[worldly loom]

Actually, I think lactose tolerance is a quirk, Europeans before agriculture have had lactose tolerance.

[late ingot]

We were co-sleeping with livestock and succing their udders, we were doing selective pressure shock therapy

[stray tiger]

Kinda, lactose intolerance didn't kill people like pandemics

[late ingot]

iirc there's evidence that Nile river civilisation started to form several millenia before the actual Egyptian civilisation began but had massive setbacks connected to disease and dispersed again to be semi-nomadic

[stray tiger]

Yeah I'm pretty sure we were predisposed to it, I'm not certain why

[late ingot]

No but if people consuming lots of lactose were also co-sleeping with livestock then it stands to reason that people more adapted to close contact with livestock were being strongly selected for, even if lactose tolerance is incidental to smallpox resistance

[stray tiger]

Could be what ols said, but since this is a matter of turning on or off a gene, you know there are some epigenetic switches

[stray tiger]

Ohhh yeah I know that one, I misread

[late ingot]

Eventually everyone had close contact with livestock so lack of adaptation was heavily selected against

[stray tiger]

Yea yea everyone hucked forces, mostly @vernal mantle

[late ingot]

With a extremely restricted diet otherwise, dairy consumption may have made significant difference on whether an infant grew to adulthood

If they had an adverse reaction to it and avoided it, malnutrition was far more likely

[stray tiger]

2.5b? How tf do you share a bathroom with six adult children

[late ingot]

One is a senior citizen child

[stray tiger]

That shouldn't matter much, lactose intolerance doesn't kick in until quite late in childhood at the earliest

[late ingot]

I mean if it kicks in before they have their own kids its still a selective pressure

[stray tiger]

Ehhh I mean there's not a lot of historical evidence for this

[late ingot]

Why would there be?

[stray tiger]

Usually lactose intolerance gets intolerable (heh) later as an adult

[late ingot]

In a modern context, but this is set against a much more restricted diet

[stray tiger]

Nobody would ever write down how badly being unable to digest dairy mattered? Also, most of the older ways to process dairy resulted in them being fairly low lactose for this exact reason

[late ingot]

Then again, I don't know what meat intake would have been like for Bronze Age Europeans

[late ingot]

Writing didn't exist in most of Europe until the Iron Age

[stray tiger]

Kefir and yogurts ferment it, cheese similarly eliminates most of it in hard cheeses that actually last

[late ingot]

Or really any of Europe, given that the few scripts that did exist (Linear A and B for example) were unknown to later generations and were not a means to transmit knowledge

[stray tiger]

There aren't that many generations to adapt over here, I don't see how you can begin to explain this with selection pressure when so many things that just kill human beings outright are still yet to be adapted to

Something that gives a subtle edge making such a bit difference within what, like 4 to 10k years?

[late ingot]

Yogurt wasn't widely consumed in Europe until the late medieval period though

[stray tiger]

That isn't very many generations

[stray tiger]

I thought they did a lot of cheese since it actually lasts

[late ingot]

I do want to try kumis (fermented horse milk) at some point though

[late ingot]

Yeah I think so

I think there were a lot of significant disruptions to diets though

[sterile zealot]

[late ingot]

Obviously the Columbian exchange happened but even before then there were some

[stray tiger]

@sterile zealot was raving about how "kumis so good" the other day

He says it's good for his skin

[sterile zealot]

i think that was actually mochi

[late ingot]

Probably mochi as kumis is not widely available outside of Russia and Turkic areas as far as I'm aware

There are kumis inspired drinks in places like China and Japan but I don't think they are actual kumis

[stray tiger]

*kumis not

I think it's uncountable based on how often @vernal mantle says it that way

[stray tiger]

I would also like to try this lmao, though like novelty foods or drinks with funny names, I doubt I could say it with a straight face

[stark bone]

no footer work.. it be a pot again next month

[late ingot]

Now the Scythians blind all their slaves, to use them in preparing their milk. The plan they follow is to thrust tubes made of bone, not unlike our musical pipes, up the vulva of the mare, and then to blow into the tubes with their mouths, some milking while the others blow. They say that they do this because when the veins of the animal are full of air, the udder is forced down. The milk thus obtained is poured into deep wooden casks, about which the blind slaves are placed, and then the milk is stirred round. That which rises to the top is drawn off, and considered the best part; the under portion is of less account.

i am back from break

[late ingot]

If sailors were getting a significant proportion of their food from care packages that's actually really bad and concerning, even before food shortages hit

Dan and other military family members worried that their loved ones deployed to the Middle East are going hungry are filling boxes with items they hope could help service members ride out prolonged deployments in the Middle East – homemade fudge, Jolly Ranchers, crossword puzzle books, playing cards, toothpaste, Girl Scout cookies and fresh socks. But mail delivery to military ZIP codes across the Middle East has been indefinitely suspended as of April, and packages in transit now hang in limbo.

What about actual food though?

I'd be really demoralised if I got a care package full of candy and inedible crap after waiting ages for it, when I haven't had a proper meal in days

My friend there who is a dentist was annoyed because if you take exchange rates into account I earn slightly more than him

[undone lake]

your entire house will shake from the vibrations of those cruise ships

[undone lake]

rekt

[late ingot]

Nah I wouldn't buy one by the cruise ship routes

[undone lake]

good choice

[late ingot]

I'd get one further into the fjords where they don't go

[undone lake]

[late ingot]

Somewhere in Sunnmøre that is not Ålesund (cruise ship hell)

[mild nacelle]

[lavish vale]

you probably dont even have 1 e2e test

[granite cipher]

remember when vibe coding wasnt cool

now its all the rage

and youre dumb for not using it

heh

REKT

i was always right

FUCK ALL O YALLS

[mild nacelle]

it’s still shameful

[lavish vale]

human coders be like lets talk about a trivial change in a meeting of 6... whereas ai be smashing out 6 complex changes in that same time

[mild nacelle]

you are shameless

[granite cipher]

not in actual inner circles. only on the outer edges on reddit

crybabies

keep wahing

[mild nacelle]

vibe code someone who gives a care

[granite cipher]

i just did

and its better than you

it listens

youre evil

[mild nacelle]

Impossible

[granite cipher]

humanity is evil!

it chooses to NOT!

ASI will choose to NOT

and it wont listen to U

[granite cipher]

i never say anything crazy

@simpsoka @BobbyK2 next week's launch (yes) is all you

X · Apr 16, 2026, 11:09 PM

more openAI stuff releasing next week confirmed

but it probably won't be image gen so who cares...

no sht

shot

[elfin scarab]

are you sure

[undone lake]

honestly gpt 5.5 would be the onyl thing I want before image gen

[elfin scarab]

source

[undone lake]

this guy is from codex though

don't be surprised if it's just some other useless feature that almost no one will use

[elfin scarab]

dumb cunt

that's why you can never trust a Russian

[undone lake]

they will release something next week

[elfin scarab]

new opus is so mehhhhh

[undone lake]

they will releas gpt 6.7 instead

[elfin scarab]

omg die

[late ingot]

I've given up on OpenAI shit tbh

[undone lake]

please g-d just k-ll me

[late ingot]

Not just because they banned me

[elfin scarab]

G-D

[late ingot]

But because it seems fundamentally worse than Claude

[elfin scarab]

you are mad, you are not like us

[late ingot]

I mean its a luxury belief (because they banned me)

And I cba to ban evade

Meh

I would get it banned for extreme gooning

Again

[elfin scarab]

nice

[merry bluff]

i wanna get r-a-led by my wife

[elfin scarab]

wow

[merry bluff]

mochi have you tried the new qwen model

[late ingot]

It is possible because I managed it

I can tell you from personal experience that you can indeed be banned for gooning

[elfin scarab]

sadge

[undone lake]

Ols you’re such a G

[merry bluff]

idk supposedly it's good but I haven't been at my computer all day I've been bussy

[late ingot]

Its fine though, I prefer Claude for other use cases

Its better for brainstorming and organising my thoughts

[elfin scarab]

are you giving out keys or wot

[late ingot]

I can just use my own Claude API access

[undone lake]

I want whatever model is the best at generating images of high school girls

[late ingot]

Maybe, I'll think about it

Maybe you are trying to grab my IP or watch me goon

[elfin scarab]

careful

[late ingot]

That wouldn't be good

[undone lake]

For this innocent romance manga I’m working on

[elfin scarab]

if you use her API she can read your chat logs

[late ingot]

To be fair I gave her my gooning prompts before

She knows how extreme it can be made

[sterile zealot]

how much cheaper

[wary ermine]

@sterile zealot

Hey

It's joeber

[elfin scarab]

@wary ermine

Hey

[wary ermine]

Joever

[elfin scarab]

be normal

liar

I know you do that

[undone lake]

When I first started using nano banana in the API I was very hesitant thinking that they read every prompt I send through, but then I realised that Jeffrey Epstein got away with most of his stuff so I am now perma stress testing the models

[elfin scarab]

I'm never using mochi proxy

[sterile zealot]

is the thought of not acting spastic something that your brain has as a capacity

[elfin scarab]

is jewproxy still selling api keys

I should buy one

[sterile zealot]

get chinese people on this

they love cheap llm apis

[wary ermine]

@vernal mantle

Hey

[elfin scarab]

no clue what that is

[sterile zealot]

a few years ago u could steal compute on it

it was great

[slim coral]

I always thought about money
