  • Can anyone explain why?

    Jump

  • Because they’re weak.

    In all seriousness, income has stayed about the same in nominal terms, but the cost of living has gone way up even between millennials and gen z. So really income has gone down and booze is much more of a luxury.

  • What meditation/chill music do you put on to ground yourself?

    Jump

  • Older (i.e. 2000s and early 2010s) hypnotic techno. I do 30 mins of deep breathing exercises 3 times a day, while listening to it, to try and maintain a sense of calm throughout the day.

    Realise my music choice probably isn’t what most people would classify as “chill”. I mainly listen to electronic music so I find it easy to lose myself into the extremely repetitive percussion and melody.

  • how was your first quarter of 21st century?

    Jump

  • It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness.

    In the last 25 years I’ve hit rock bottom and also experienced the happiest moments of my life. Can’t sum it up any better than Dickens.

  • Exodus devs want you to know that despite Matthew McConaughey's AI deal, not a drop has been used in their game so far

    Jump

  • The article author seems to write this off as just another run of the mill sci-fi rpg, but I’m pretty excited for this. Peter F Hamilton is one of my favourite authors and he’s done the world building to support the narrative of the game.

    Going to be reading his tie-in novel over the xmas break and it seems to have got decent reader reviews so long as you like his style of writing.

  • Whats a TV series that went completely off the rails, became absurd and lost sight of its own original premise?

    Jump

  • Happy Days when the Fonz jumped a shark on waterskis.

  • It's astounding that this exact scenario happened at least four times

    Jump

  • There was was a panic around disco? Huh, TIL.

    I also don’t know the difference between hip-hop and rap. Separated them out to be on the safe side.

    I do know the difference between house and techno and get mildly annoyed when people use either of them as umbrella terms for dance music. It’d be fair for fans of hip-hop and rap to feel the same.

    In case you’re interested (and very simplified): Techno started in Detroit and was influenced by early German and French synthesiser music, plus the car factories.

    House started in Chicago and was influenced by soul, gospel and disco.

  • Thank you, I wasn’t aware of their deep Russian ties and now won’t be buying it. I’ll edit my post to reflect that.

    What superhero has the most 'normal' day job?

    Jump

  • Ant Man is mostly unemployed by the time he becomes a superhero. That seems most relatable in these times.

  • Remember that time someone repackaged Linux Lite as Windows 12?

    Jump

  • That second sentence is a bald faced lie. I lost grub thanks to a failed update and then 2 days of my life trying to repair it.

  • Recommendation: Babylon Berlin

    Jump

  • Not as good, but decent enough, is Shadowplay. It’s set in the immediate aftermath of WW2 and has a US detective trying to upskill a Berlin police unit and find his psychotic brother.

  • Vicious cycle

    Jump

  • I’m in this comic and don’t like it.

  • What is your favourite video game quote?

    Jump

  • You must construct additional pylons.

    Words to live by.

  • Most Israelis not bothered by reports of suffering and famine in Gaza, new poll shows

    Jump

  • Nazi era Germans could at least plead ignorance of genocide. In this day and age, with access to massive amounts of information, there’s no excuse. They’ve made a deliberate decision that they’re ok with ethnic cleansing.

  • What's a green flag in a friendship?

    Jump

  • When you catch up it’s as if no time has passed no matter how long it’s been since you last spoke to them.

  • What are the next steps I need to do to publish a paper somewhere like arXiv?

    Jump

  • You could put it up on ResearchGate first to get eyes across it and potentially get an endorsement. Then reach out to the endorser to get sponsored for arXiv.

    The other option is to submit it for peer review. You’d need to to look up the best pathway based on your field.

  • An AI That Promises to "Solve All Diseases" Is About to Test Its First Human Drugs

    Jump

  • I’m anti-general purpose LLMs, but this is a valid use case for “ai”. There are known constraints, the model is trained on a very specific dataset, and you have have human experts in the loop for assurance.

    This also isn’t new. Protein folding models have been successfully used, and validated, for a number of years.

  • The professor tried to warn us about robosexuals but we didn’t listen.
