nastyyboi , to linux in how to choose window tiling manager?

My recommendation is to just try bunch of them and see which one fits your needs or you like using the most.

Try both manual tiling and auto tiling for both X11 and Wayland, one will eventually stick.

I started with AwesomeWM, then tried bunch of other ones , and to my surprise, I found myself using DWM (flexipatch) the most. I’m planning to transition to Hyprland soon.

Just use what you like and don’t pay much attention about the reviews.

BCsven , to asklemmy in What's your most profound "small world" moment?

Move out west to BC from Ontario. My new doctor had same last name as my boss in Ontario, so I’m like do you know any “blah blah” in ontario? He says yeah that’s my dad.

They should be smaller though, so they fit in one piece into the mouth withouth hurting yourself.

KyuubiNoKitsune ,

They’ve suffered shrinkflation in my home country and they’re much smaller.

Thorry84 ,

Huh? I can very easily fit an entire Pringle in my mouth. And I don’t think I have that big of a mouth actually. They also don’t have any sharp corners or break into sharp pieces, so I can eat it without worrying about cutting the inside of my mouth.

I don’t really like what this says about me.

This man has never been within 10 meters of a IRL pringle.

Thorry84 ,

I ate an entire can just today

keepcarrot ,

I believe shrinkflation has in fact made them smaller

Bro I can fit a stack of Pringles in my mouth.

Check out Basecamp Cafe / Gearhouse. I don’t live in Seattle anymore, but found some trail running peeps through there back in the day.

Good place for other outdoor stuff too, like backpacking and climbing.

POTOOOOOOOO , to asklemmy in What's the most extravagant thing you've bought for your pet, and do you regret it?

Other than surgery? My wife got a cat tree. He loves it.

I have a bonus, the cheapest thing our cat loves is paper bags that we get free from our one grocery store.

Sounds like they don’t sail the high seas

abbadon420 , to showerthoughts in Motor Vehicles, Even animal powered vehicles extend life.

I’ve been a trucker for many years. Not the fastest vehicle, but still relatively fast and a lot more hours on the road than the average person. I’m pretty sure that time rather shortened my life than extended it. All the sitting and the fastfood are not good for your general wellbeing. Also the fact that I grew to hate the job, was very detrimental.

tgs1999 OP ,

Definitely Lifestyle and amount Spent sitting can affect this. Planes, boat and trains probably the best forms

moistclump , to showerthoughts in In ancient Rome, a "Fresh Laundry"-scented candle/deodorant would have smelled like pee.

Dumb question, but does the ammonia still smell like piss? The video said they would leave it out for a while first and concentrate it somehow?

Paraponera_clavata ,

Yeah, pretty sure it was fermented into ammonia and didn’t smell like pee.

Astrophysicist here. Yes, space is crazy, but interesting things to keep in mind:

  1. The size of a star is determined by something called the photosphere. With those extremely massive stars, you can be hundreds of millions of kilometres “inside” and not yet know it.
  2. Similar story with supermassive black holes, from the perspective of an astronaut falling in, they wouldn’t really be able to tell when they cross the horizon because the tidal forces there are very small (they will inevitably fall towards the centre and get spaghettified at some point)
UnderpantsWeevil ,
@UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world avatar

I was under the impression that the time it would take you to get spaghettified would render the fear of such an experience irrelevant, as you’d be long dead of natural causes before then.

unknown ,

Hi Astrophysics,

I always wondered why they draw black holes like they do in that the accretion looks like it’s drawn in two planes. I would have thought it would have looked a bit more like a saturns rings? Or is it exactly like saturns rings but we see the whole ring bent round the top because a black hole bends the light around so we can see it? Or is it something else entirely that they are trying to depict here?

OrganicMustard ,

The second one. The image is simulated as how an external observer would see it. It was firstly done for the Interstellar movie.

unknown ,

Cool, thought for a long time there it was just an artistic liberty; but this is much cooler.

FrenziedFelidFanatic ,

Or is it exactly like saturns rings but we see the whole ring bent round the top because a black hole bends the light around so we can see it?

Hit the nail pretty hard on the head there

KillingTimeItself ,

as a non astrophysicist, or just a non astronomer in general. it weirds me out every time i remember that there is literally a part of the universe that apparently exists, of which we will never be able to see, because the light from that part of the universe, quite literally hasn’t reached us yet.

The observable universe is inconceivably massive. But it just keeps going.

And to think it’s not an improbable concept for humanity to recreate the physics behind a big bang in a controlled setting, somewhere down the line from here, is certainly an interesting thought.

They live on nitrogen-poor soil and eat insects to cope with it.

Hildegarde , to asklemmy in Anyone with experience on music notation, which is the right way to transcribe this?

Why is it beamed to the metre instead of the lyrics? Is that a modern thing? I only work with old music and its always beamed to the text.

Pringles , to science_memes in pringles

You’re goddamn right!

mrnarwall , to asklemmy in Anyone with experience on music notation, which is the right way to transcribe this?

Hi, I am a musician (thought almost entirely with using bass clef). I’m not sure I understand what you are transcribing. Are you trying to change the song into a different key, or are you just trying to write out the song as it would be in sheet music?

And just for full disclosure, I am not familiar with this song, so I can’t comment on the accuracy of it how it’s written

zeppy5d OP ,
@zeppy5d@pawb.social avatar

I’m trying to transcribe it just as it is, no key change. I have the isolated vocal track of this song i’m trying to transcribe as a reference, shame i don’t have a way to send it

We are stardust, we are golden We are billion year old carbon And we got to get ourselves back to the garden

militaryintelligence ,

Man, I think about that all the time. We aren’t even a drop in the bucket, not a blip in the history of the universe. To me that makes life immeasurably precious. We get to experience and explore a small moment of infinite vastness

GarbageShoot ,

Spatially small =/= doesn’t matter. You can’t just jump from physical characteristics to values like that. What happened to being scientific?

Evil_Shrubbery ,

Yes, and you are very correct.

It’s not really possible with our minds.
Much like with numbers, anything beyond small numbers/points our minds just turn into representative idea (a meme) which we tend to perceive on a logarithmic scale (like how people tend to think a thousand, a million, and a billion are apart by about the same-ih or only a bit differently). Thats even how our biosensory bits work, along with how we interpret/perceive information from them.

It’s great for achieving practical stuff, but it’s not real.
