I didn’t know that about subs, interesting. Knowing sleep deprivation causes impairment on par with driving drunk I’d have assumed it was more of a concern.

I heard a positive remark on Lemmy about https://www.languagetransfer.org/ recently and have been meaning to have a look

Adjusting ship time to standard planetary time is a weird way to phrase how this would actually be accomplished; in order to make ship time broadly sync up with planetary time, you’d have to park it in an orbit that puts you at the equivalent of the solar day planet-side.

Depending on the length of the mission and the difference in the length of day, you would either want to regularize your orbit to keep the crew’s 24 hour schedule in parity with the equivalent solar day relative to the planet, or keep them parked in a geosynchronous orbit that slowly falls out of sync with the planet-side clock.

For reasons of crew health you would not simply set your clocks to an arbitrary point on the planet’s surface, because that would screw up everyone’s circadian rhythms and create unsafe levels of fatigue. It would be far more professional to staff the ship around the clock so that someone’s always awake and fresh. Depending on availability of personnel, you could even stagger shifts so that staffing changes are seamless.

They get their… Second breakfast?

The complexity was initially sensed, though I did not encompass it at the time of writing

Ooooh yeeeeuh

Play with temperature more. Your oven likely has warmer and cooler areas. Also, a warmer start with a longer, lower finish could achieve the browning you’re after.

It is morally just* to harm such people.

Friend Besto!

They hate us cause they anus

I will kill Poe’s law or die trying. I hate the idea that we share so little context as a culture that every joke needs a signpost. I fight it my way, but the real war will only be won when global society has enough shared culture for us to make each other laugh without honking a bike horn and giving an exaggerated full-body wink.

Edit: I know I’m being grandiose, you don’t gotta point it out

You got me there. You have to admit though, that Lemmy is a challenge for people like me.

Comedians have been using the written word for eons. Some jokes don’t land when written, and the real solution wasn’t invented this decade.

My personal policy is that if the joke needs a laugh track, a rimshot, or any big sign that says “Joke” being waved, the joke doesn’t work.

Was it fairly clear I was just being funny? I hoped so, I try not to tell jokes that actually need to be /s tagged.

When he dies they’re just gonna make him into an LLM. He already ignores all previous instructions so he’s laid the groundwork

I don’t know half the people you mentioned

No matter how much I write, I usually forget to say anything about sport or anything particularly tribal in nature. They usually cotton on after some recent seismic televised event entirely fails to inspire a remark from me.

Better yet, I would like to see the idea of machismo itself get taken down a peg.

A little bit of Weegee Mangione

I was in a taxi last week and the driver sped up at a crossing pedestrian. I wanted to throttle him.
