Let’s make some noise
Don’t leave the house without a party bag, check this!
I’m still a princess, I can curtsy, I can beat you at tetris!

anyone have any alternatives where you can log in? unlike newpipe or skytube
this is an issue with social media in general not those specific platforms
The way to be nice that is presented here seems so passive-aggressive to me. Better than being outright mean, but still
it is So Fucking Slow. i can’t use it for more than 10 minutes without it slowing down to the point of unusability
Ah, I see your point now. I still think it’d sell the wrong idea since it just causes centralization, which is a problem that platforms already deal with, but now I see its potential usefulness as well
But this isn’t the case with “usual” social media stuff either, why should it be the case with the fediverse?
Also just like, they are decentralized. You can’t tell dozens upon dozens of different people to “hey, make ur instance’s design follow these arbitrary rules thanks”
I think that’d be boring
Same case as Fakefunk, I have my own fictional world set in the year 2500. I don’t really care about how the world is doing, but there’s this small, human-made island operated by sentient machines that is what i call a “utopia in the works”. They’re trying to make a utopia, but they’re not quite there yet. One thing I do know about this world is that “zero world countries” are now a thing, that is, countries that reach post-scarcity. The island this worldbuilding is focused on is one of those.
My friends have called them the intersection of transhumanism and buddhism, and solarpunk with a cyberpunk aesthetic
All the dictionary definitions for the word dozen say “a group of 12”, which isn’t decimal-centric at all. Like I said, being able to express a definition with decimal digits doesn’t make it a decimal definition. I could just as easily say that it’s “a group of 20”. The definition doesn’t change, it’s just that I’m using base 6 now. Does this mean that it’s a base 6 definition? No, it just means that I can use base six to express it
Anyhow, doesn’t seem like this is going anywhere lol. I guess it’s just a matter of which words you prefer
you can also say that a dozen is a group of 1100, does that mean that a dozen is a reference to binary? of course not, that doesn’t make any sense. just because you can use decimal digits to write a definition doesn’t make it a decimal-centric definition. duodecimal is decimal-centric not because of its definition, but because it’s literally “two(duo) ten(decimal)”
there are a lot of ways to count to 12 with only two hands. some with only one hand
The problem with “duodecimal” is that it’s in base ten, which makes it unfitting for a community centered around replacing base ten
Didn’t know the pale king liked to read
Not just technology, I can’t remember anything I learnt on school besides like basic mathematical operations. Everything else they tried to explain I had to learn on internet
This. This so fucking much. It looks so weird to see so many different programs named basically the same
Not gonna lie, I generally hate music that doesn’t have this kind of repetition, but music that overuses repetition also sucks. To me, there is something like “too creative”, and music without this tends to have it
Yeah. I think it comes from different experiences and different associations with those experiences
Here’s what I think The Funny here actually is: It subverts the expectation of the reader up front (as long as they are familiar with «facts and easter eggs» images that use this similar format) by showing them this format, and then presenting them with something beyond blatantly obvious
Here’s what my brain associated this meme with: Yknow that time when everyone and their mother used facebook? There were pages that kept posting fun facts about marvel and they looked exactly like this. I think this image is making fun of them running out of actual facts

I believe that curiosity is a virtue. Identifying and Explaining are the two tenets of my philosphy, to seek out and to understand is my way of living.
