At this point I don't even look at what community posts are posted to. I'm just convinced that lemmy is just a big subreddit with no categorization whatsoever.
I think the community names on posts being too small and moderators not caring about community subjects is a massive contributor to that.
Well, I think Linus Torvalds is one of the rare rich people who actually "deserves" being rich.
I think the main motive behind leftism should be stopping 8 people from owning the 50% of the world's wealth, not to distribute Linus Torvalds' 50 million dollars which a well deserved amount of wealth for someone who created the OS which runs the modern world.
Besides, what Linus owns is not even a droplet compared to billionaires like Bezos, Musk or Bill Gates
I don't know and we might never know. Brain creates the image and watches the image
But in my experience with lucid dreams objects have really high quality textures. You can even feel the bumpiness when you touch them it's mind blowing
I hate to say it but I have an IQ of 130 maybe that's why my dreams are extremely high quality
Only stuff with complex random patterns which you don't see regularly in real life have sections you can't remember. Sometimes those sections are filled with other parts of the object, sometimes they are filled with a generated pattern. These "filled" sections are generally blurry or smudgy
Some experiments I made:
If you try to "load" a lot of these complex objects world just starts shaking and crashes.
You don't wake up at morning if the world crashes, you just wake up at the middle of the night. And if you have a smartwatch the sleep graph shows that you jumped from directly REM to Awake, skipping light sleep
I set up a recording of myself saying "can you hear me inside the dream" to play while I'm in the REM cycle. You can hear the real world inside a dream even when you're not lucid
When you tell dream characters "you're a part of my dream. You're not real" they panic and scream in fear while running around which "crashes" the dream
I generally create a "god" which helps me manage the world much easily. One time I asked that "god" to show me a color I've never seen. It was beautiful, kind of close to magenta but words can't describe the beautiful color I saw there (or maybe thats what my brain wants me to think)
Computers and phones doesn't work. Icons and text look garbled
Physics are glitchy. Objects fall in fixed speed unlike the real world. There's literally no impact response. Collisions either feel like you hit an immovable object or cussions
Light is not simulated as individual photons. In other words your brain doesn't have RTX. Reflective objects like mirrors dont work. Turned off screens and cars simply dont reflect anything, they just look either matte or glossy.
I feel like I'm writing a bug report to god lmao
Those are my personal experiences anyways. Idk if everyone's dreams work like that
The problem is mirrors don't have a certain appearance, they change texture based on what's in front of them and because of that the brain doesn't have a static model of it so the brain just mixes everything you've ever seen in a mirror together while trying to render it
Some people see just normal things some people see nothing and some see real fucked up shit like their face getting torn apart or something. If you panic while looking at a mirror in a dream, your brain knows what you fear way more than you
Another thing to consider is the human brain being also able to render really high quality images and animations.
The term "dark humor" has lost its real meaning and nowadays everyone thinks dark humor is just laughing at the frowned upon
As opposed to what edgy teenagers say, "dark humor" is the parody of suffering and it's not meant to be offensive. It's like laughing when you get so infuriated
I have ADHD-C and sometimes my family says "Here, your grandpa pills" while giving me my medication. And I occasionally refer to my medication as "government issued meth"
So no I don't think this is coping. The thing you just experienced is just genuine dark humor
Open source developer and Linux enthusiast here. Although cluttered, Android's home directory is fairly simple to understand
The nightmare begins when you take a look at the root filesystem.
One time I was trying to port an OS to my phone and I had to figure out the Android init system. Went to source.android.com and what. the. fuck. Just as a side-by-side comparison:
Linux boot sequence:
Android boot sequence (unmodded, SIMPLE):
There are so many wrong things about it like why are there 11, 12 places to put programs (/system/bin, /bin, /usr/bin /system/usr/bin, /sbin, /system/usr/share/bin...)
Why the fuck drivers are scattered around folders instead of just /lib/modules
Why is the home directory /storage/emulated/0/ instead of just /home/0/ (also why the user is named "0")
Where the fuck is everything???
God (Linus Torvalds) forgive me but even Windows is better than that shit
