and it goes from the misunderstanding to straight throwing their children's books away

rugged perch
#

i see

mild pelican
#

more like one goes from another

dusty rover
#

yeah, it’s just the whole “the classics are the best and most intellectual books you can read” mentality. which isn’t true

rugged perch
#

agreed

remote plover
#

Makes me wonder if the people who read those classics at the time they were written considered them as difficult as we do now, or if the cultural lens has shifted so much that we just don't get it

rugged perch
#

a little bit of column A, a little bit of column B

#

I didn't find Pushkin particularly difficult, for example, but then again, i didn't read it in Russian so maybe the difficulty is lost in translation

#

Bergerac though... indeed, a two page description of a kitchen does get tiresome

#

and when i read it many years ago i was significantly more patient and focused

#

wonder how i would like the classics that i had to read for school now, years later

#

p sure I'd enjoy some of them a lot more

mossy trail
#

Pushkin was the one who reformed russian to be easier, kinda

earnest cargo
#

These can also be good insight years later into the lives of people from a different time

#

I'm personally of the opinion that there's value in a lot of media in some way, even if it's trash but people seem to have liked it at some point; you can probably deduce/infer some conclusions out of why it was that people considered it remarkable/fun/interesting/etc.

#

Even bad pieces of media that garnered huge public interest and backing can be used as good examples of "no, not like this".

#

It was a fun evening read, thanks for sparking the convo, God!

Hey yall

Do you ever get roped into learning how to salsa dance via nature of being late to your first class since your school is so big?

#

I just did!

It was super fun though

I just realized that evolution is just the infinite monkey theorem except the monkey is the reproductive cycle and the list in the typewriter is a being's genome and the monkey is tasked with combining the lists of the creatures' previous generation and sometimes it gets a letter wrong and if a creature dies it's list is destroyed but if it reproduces it's list with another list(not always) is given to another monkey to combine which may also get a letter wrong and those accidental mistakes gradually over time accumulate and completely change the list from what it was somewhere in the past

serene tulip
#

life is self-organizing, the monkey typewriter thought experiment is not

mossy trail
serene tulip
#

well, imagine if you had a bunch of monkeys and word processors and you look over the shoulder of a monkey and see, "We're no strangers to love" The odds that the next word is intelligible much less correct is pretty darn low. But when two cells divide, the odds that the next cell will survive to maturity is significantly higher than the next word of the monkey's script will be "you"

#

Hi

mossy trail
#

in my analogy monkeys don't just randomly write, they combine a text, basically let's say just a string of letters, with another text of the same kind, and wherever a letter at the same place in those text is different in each they randomly choose one of them, and also sometimes they type the wrong letter instead of any letter

#

not exactly how dna is combined probably but idk

fast marlin
#

the whole point is that they do randomly write though

#

and eventually it will randomly become shakespeare

#

or rick, i guess

fickle sentinel
#

Then, sometimes, evolution goes and does “it was the best of times, it was the blurst of times!?”

mild pelican
#

it can also be imagined as bunch of monkeys at the terminals hooked to the local network trying to make a working code

#

it took millions of years to make "hello_world.exe", and now we're at the verge of synergy

mild pelican
# fast marlin synergy?

some theoretical point after which code will write itself without humans involved, becoming more and more complicated

muted smelt
#

singularity maybe

mild pelican
#

yes

#

like that, some mistakes happen, and then the system fixes it

#

we're already at the point when system don't rely on monkeys anymore, it's pretty much self-sufficient

#

same may or may not happen with us meatbags in the future

#

made dinner tonight

#

okay i would post the sautéing but apparently dyno does not want me to!

mossy trail
#

niice looks gooood

fast marlin
#

it is prettu simple and very tasty

#

im not a steak person but when it infuses with the oil and tomatoes? i am suddenly a steak person

muted smelt
#

how can i get one? do you do delivery?

fast marlin
#

I’m not entirely sure whats in the sauce since it was made a while ago and frozen

#

But everything else is super east

muted smelt
#

sure!

#

still want delivery tho

rugged perch
#

can you share the recipe with me too please? 👉 👈

#

i love sauteed zuccini and tomatoes

fast marlin
#

cucumber actually!

rugged perch
#

oh? interesting, i've never sauteed cucumber

fast marlin
#

it is Very easy

toppings:
step 1: chop steak, cucumbers, tomatoes, anything else you want
step 2: put in a pan with a bit of oil (i used olive bc its all i had)
step 3: basically mess it up until it is sautéed to your liking, make sure to squish the tomatos so they juice

noodles:

  1. acquire noodles from whole foods
  2. cook them in boiling water for ~4 minutes with salt and oil

sauce: basil, cilantro, pumpkin seeds, honey, olive oil
i forgot how to make it specifically but it’s basically just sauce making

rugged perch
#

what kind of noodles?

#

mmm, the sauce sounds amazing

fast marlin
#

lemme check one sec

#

Instant rice noodles lmfao

#

TIL kimchi chimichurri exists

i've only had regular chimichurri (damn i love it so much, steak is so good with it)

Well done it looks nice

so what happened was I made too much filling

and the wrap is too small

so.... i just ate it as is

#

oh yea, context, I made the right one. My mom made the left one.

#

I was thinning the left one when she came in and told me to prepare the pan

#

hers is a bit thicker

cause she used hands instead of rolling pin dusa

which sucks living here

but also i have a star fruit tree outside apparently?? so thats cool

Oh? How come? Is it the sweetness or the stringiness?

fast marlin

Stringiness yeah

#

I like them dried

mhm gotcha, yea, I tend to cut them with a knife and steer clear of my desire of chewing the seed for that reason hehe

I like to eat them frozen, would recommend

oooh bet

ive become such a smoothie person now that i have a disposal in my sink lol

Quite sweet though

I imagine fresh is best

How do you know which one is ripe or not? Or is that not a problem with jackfruit

fast marlin
#

my mom is in the process of dehydrating and slicing so many bananas from the old house

#

I dont understand why but i guess she likes dried bananas

#

And we’re using the peel as fertilizer

oh speaking of what should i grow now that i’m living her permanently

#

also radish ill get a pic of the starfruit tree tomorrow if i remember zagpls

Heck yea! I'd love to see it!

#

I've not tried it much because it's rather pricy at my local stores and idk which ones to pick

earnest cargo
#

Potatoes too

#

Can't ever go wrong with strawberies either, soo tasty when fresh picked

#

Raspberries are good, but I hear that they're kind of invasive and could take over your garden lol

Ive grown the first theee

Not raspberries though!

😔 aloe can add an odd texture to smoothies. if it's small edible chunks like in boba tea, maybe adding it after blending the smoothie would work

I should probably add that caffeine doesn't give energy

what does it do

bronze lintel

caffeine is a stimulant. It increases brain activity and tricks it so you don't feel tired.

oh interesting

So at the cafe, we used to have a gallon of free water for customers to take. Recently it broke and we're still waiting for the replacement.

Few days ago, a regular came along with their kid. After order, the kid came to me and asked for free water.
What he said was: "May I have some water please? Thank you."
I was getting his water when his mom said, "What do you say to the man?"
he replied with, "I already said it."
I followed it up with, "I didn't hear it."

oh huh

grave sand

it should be mentioned in the MB manual but I'm pretty sure the standard is 2 a 4, because they are paired and work in dual-channel mode, which increases performance

so like it will work still but you lose that feature where CPU can use them at the same time basically

or use them more effectively

psu?

grave sand
#

yeah PC not booting can be a bunch of different things, I guess if it's actually starting but no bios comes up then I would check display/GPU first, is the display actually plugged into GPU and not MB, but could also be something different

#

the switch in the back

#

of the power supply

fast marlin
#

yes

#

i assume so anyway

grave sand

so the PC actually starts?

#

just doesn't boot

fast marlin
#

yes

grave sand
#

ok

#

but eh we’ll get it fixed professionally

#

if the MB isn't beeping and the PC is running without doing anything weird like starting and stopping then gpu/display issue would be my guess

that's what I thought

If there's one thing that college taught me, it's that the difficulty of a subject is largely determined by your teacher. My organic chemistry professor was great and I didn't have tons of difficulty learning that subject, but I heard several people with a different professor, who was known to be a terrible teacher, hated the subject.

Although more will definitely come at EA start and full release

Oh there will definitely be a pop boom on EA and the 1.0 releases, but i doubt many will remain once the hype dies down

It would be nice to get more people hanging here though, all the peeps I've seen here are chill

i'm in a couple of interconnected game servers with similarly chill crowd, but i think there's no ready answer like "yes, servers X, Y, Z will be as nice for you as SGG is"

some people from the other servers i mentioned are also here, but most of them don't really speak here

The 24 hour goal is for time slept at once HJGHGF My current record being 19 hours slept straight

oh wow i severely misunderstood then lol

i think i slept over 24hrs like, once, but it was because i took a sleeping pill and then absolutely nothing could wake me up

i've done the 24 hour sleep once, it's kinda surreal to wake up and discover you missed an entire day

in my case i was just rather tired

and also apparently nobody tried waking me up

i understand, im also just a lover of sleep

I'd nap at work if I could get away with it too tbh

i found that even a 20 min sleep when you get break at work helps. problem is falling asleep quickly when you need to

rugged perch

it might be that it varies from person to person

i'm bad at naps

20 minutes would just lead to me returning to work super disoriented and not really feeling better

but i totally support nap breaks

Oh yeah when I get my two 15s I don't really nap but I do put my head down and close my eyes for the allotted time

I'd absolutely be disoriented if I attempted to take a proper nap LMAO

# fast marlin Theres so many shades of white

i can't understand how people live inside purely blank rooms with minimum of furniture, without considering it ongoing renovations, and at the same time keep their mind together without slowly going insane

mossy trail
#

"The thing" is in the overwhelming majority of contexts very vague though, like what thing is the thing, it's the thing but that just clarifies that it is significant or distinguished somehow in the context of the discussion that is perceived by the speaker

for people whos thoughts are painful and need to be continuously silenced, im not sure

mossy trail
mossy trail
mild pelican
#

it doesn't, yes

mossy trail
#

And when I don't have a video on I have to constantly support a dialogue in my head to stop me from falling off into the depths

mild pelican
#

but it has some kind of reality anchor thing, that blank walls don't

#

minimalistic rooms often look like they were created straight from the imagination of the person living there

#

which is a great thing by itself, i think

#

and at the same time they don't look like they were ever lived in

#

sacrificing coziness for the sake of creativity.. maybe that's what i can't understand

mossy trail
# mild pelican but it has some kind of reality anchor thing, that blank walls don't

For me personally the very messy random usually pretty old interiors that I usually reside in just bring a sense of numbness and somewhat distancing of the mind from reality while for an example bland white clean hotel rooms feel more real, even to the touch, they're more sharp, I don't just kinda look through them, I see them and see myself in them
Maybe because the former actually feels closer to reality and I subconsciously distance myself from reality but idk

#

I myself fill the blank room with white walls while the other variants are already filled and I feel out of place, like that they're not mine, that they kind of belong to the furniture and the walls and the lamps and the floor, and I am extremely individualistic

fast marlin
#

and my furniture is white

so its calming but still colorful
