Thinking I had the answer to everything and that I was the only one who was "thinking logically". Emotions were weak and irrelevant, the only things that mattered were facts (i.e. anything that I believed). I swear to god, if those cunts like Jordan Peterson had gotten a hold of me I would've turned even more insufferable. As it stood, I basically just became a mostly far-left cringe lord with exactly zero understanding about how the world actually works. Luckily I've learned since then.

Nah. Text > in person >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> video call > audio call. I hate calls so much. With in person communication people can at least see that I don't have time for them, and I can also see them coming. I also find it easier to keep my train of thought while talking in person.
Calls are like a random interruption of everything I'm doing and therefore catch me by complete surprise, causing stress. Usually it completely clears my working memory, meaning that I have to spend time and energy to get back to what I was doing.
Yeah that'd explain some stuff. Happy to have switched to Linux
"AI" brought a lot of bad things, but this shit is pretty good. In the thumbnail I only see the text, but when the image opened in full size it looked like a completely different image without the text. The brain is a funky little meat computer
I've switched a few months ago. Plenty of issues, but none of them major enough anymore to go back again. All games I play regularly apart from Assetto Corsa work, and AC should also be fixable as far as I read.
Just a few days ago I got the first racing sim working properly with my wheel. AC doesn't start yet and Automobilista 2 does not match the irl steering wheel movements (this also happened on Windows sometimes), but ACC worked without much of an issue.
For music production I also got most of my setup working. I'm having a lot of issues with opening my old projects, but I wasn't actively working on them anyways and with some effort I can get them back. Still some issues like the Vital synth CLAP version crashing when the window is opened and the Splice sample thingy not allowing drag and drop, but we'll get there. For new projects it's mostly workable.
Basically everything else I need just works. Games, photography stuff, everyday programs, and obviously my programming stuff because it was already on Linux.
I use Arch by the way :3
Okay I have some reading to do haha. Thanks for the explanation!
As a programmer (who also did quite some math) it never ceases to amaze me how often math just uses single character variable/function names that apparently have a specific meaning. For instance the P^(n)(R) thingy. Without knowing this specific notation, one might easily assume it meant something else like power sets. Even within the niche I'm more familiar with (machine learning) there was plenty of that stuff going around.
Then again, this meme has an incentive to make it harder, it wouldn't be funny if it explained symbols.
Yeah this was a possibility I was thinking as well. The superscript n could just be n recursive applications, but then n is still not defined. It's one of the things that makes me thing that it's just nonsense. Also, how do you do math on Lemmy? Can you just use LaTeX math syntax or did you copy those symbols?
Okay, so:
- 🍇 = 1, because 1 + 1 + 1 = 3
- Therefore, 🍪 = 2, because 2 - 1 - 1 = 0
- 🥪 is the set of all integer numbers Z, as defined
- I am not sure about 🍔, but I assume that it's the set of integers with all even numbers removed, therefore it's the set of all odd numbers.
Beyond that starts the nonsense for me. I'm very curious whether that stuff actually checks out. Some of the terms I remember from group theory, but other stuff seems incorrect to my (limited) knowledge.
- The second definition of 🍕 seems to contain redundant information, as far as I can see " --> " defines a morphism, so why does the predicate "φ is a morphism" matter?
- The first definition of 🍕 with the contravariant thing also doesn't parse for me, what does that "-" mean in the function arguments?
- In the definition of 🌭, what is the n (or the P)? ChatGPT started yapping about real projective space, but I'm not sure if that's correct.
If there's an actual mathematician here who knows then I'd love to know the answer. I've kinda been nerd sniped by this question but I don't possess the knowledge to fully get this one
I must consume all the licorice. It's very common here in the Netherlands and I fucking love it. Especially the salty licorice with salmiak (or whatever y'all call it).
I haven't tried them, so I cannot judge, but I'm just afraid I'll run into issues when I will have to go off the beaten path. Inevitably I'll have to do something hacky in order to fix some obscure software that the maintainers of the distro didn't think of, and that's currently already a big pain. But in such a strict setting it will be even more difficult. There will be no documentation and probably no guide or questions/answers on any forum either.
I'd be willing to try it for a productivity setup if I needed a reinstall, but not for my main PC because I just rely on too many hacks to get shit working.
Oh damn I wasn't aware this was possible. Just did it as well
Arme ezel :(. Iemand aanvallen is niet netjes maar hij leek dat beest gewoon te slaan omdat hij er zin in had ofzo. Ik snap wel waarom ze hier zo boos van werd. Hopelijk beriekt het iets in Egypte
But I don't ever want to see one :(
Looks like it. It's a complete fever dream graph. I really don't get how someone can use an image like that. Personally I don't really like AI art anyways, but I could somewhat understand it as a sort of "filler" image to make your article a bit more interesting. But a graph that is supposed to convey actual information? No idea why anyone would AI gen that without checking
There seems to be quite some space there compared to what I've seen emergency vehicles use here in the Netherlands. Recently there was one traveling across a pretty narrow bridge and a road that normally allocated 2 cars. The traffic was completely stuck and yet somehow the emergency vehicle got enough space to travel through. It outpaces me while I was racing down the bridge on a bike. That was more crowded and narrow than this. People went everywhere with their car to create a way for the emergency vehicle
Not nearly as bad, if at all. I drink a lot of tea on work days (probably over a liter) and have never had issues with that. I don't regularly drink energy drink or cola etc, but he times that I had them also didn't have the same effect.
While caffeine also doesn't necessarily make my body happy, I do think that there's something else that upsets my body when drinking coffee. Maybe something to do with dehydration or histamine intolerance. Idk.
Edit: hmmm but apparently black tea and green tea are also high in histamine and I drink a lot of that. It remains a mystery
Coffee :(
The "virus wombo combo" of mono and COVID fucked a lot of things up permanently, but most of them have rebounded to an acceptable state. Whenever I drink coffee it fucks me up, even decaf coffee. Makes me feel tired as hell, stressed, overstimulated. It also seems to last for almost a full day. Drink coffee in the morning, and I have a big chance of sleeping badly.
Not that it's guaranteed to hold me back...
Every now and then the sane part of my brain forgets to pay attention and my coffee craving gets the better of me.
Personally I like the @ way more. You even read it as "at", which makes sense in this context. "Gerryflap at feddit.nl" instantly makes sense. It aligns with email, so it also makes it easier for newcomers.
