Mango , in Three Wishes

But why didn’t the number of wishes decrement?

Because the genie agreed and didn’t think of it as a chore to do in any way.

Mango ,

That’s not really much of a joke. It pretty well invalidates the core concept.

Cowbee ,
@Cowbee@lemmy.ml avatar

It doesn’t, it emphazes it and makes it a joke.

Genie: I will do any 3 things for you

Person: eliminate Capitalists

Genie: I’ll give it to you for free, fuck the bourgeoisie

There’s the joke.

Mango ,

I agree with the sentiment, but it’s not really funny.

Cowbee ,
@Cowbee@lemmy.ml avatar

That’s your right. I disagree, it’s pretty funny.

It isn’t, which is why much theory and practice has occured since the inception of these ideas, and grown over time.

Ceiling light is best light.

All these fucking mood lighting I see people talk about make you look like some kind of underlit villain, or like you’re telling goosebumps stories around the world’s mildest campfire.

Why am I the only neurodivergent person who finds floor lights fucking disgusting ???

yokonzo OP ,

Im pretty sure by mood lighting they aren’t referring to lights built into the actual floor. I think they just mean less intense lighting like lamps, string lights or LED color lighting.

I don’t even think I’ve ever seen a house with floor lighting indoors

PeriodicallyPedantic ,

I’m not talking about descriptions, I’m talking about pictures and videos.
And I’m not talking about lighting set into the floor, I mean like floor lamps and shit.

They put these laps on shelves and desks and standing on the floor, but they’re almost always below eye level when standing, so everyone looks like a b-movie villain as they move about the room. It drives me crazy.

Give me an overhead area light. Soft shadows from light cast downward onto my face.

yokonzo OP ,

I mean I guess I could see that, I’m sure everyone has their own preferences about lighting.

Though I will say most of the floor lamps in my house do rise above a person who’s standing up, otherwise they have a light pointing down.

PeriodicallyPedantic ,

You’re right wrt personal preference. It’s just strange to me how seemingly all the neurodivergents but me hate overhead lighting 😭

Floor lamps that are above head height are… Ok I guess, but that’s still mostly head-on. Light that is clearly cast down is so much more satisfying. Personal preference, of course.
And to be clear I don’t have anything against mood lighting or accent lights, I like them… Just not only them.

The impression I have (mainly from social media like tiktok and Lemmy) is that the desired lighting is head high and below which just… Puts me in a tailspin lol. Idk how people can live like that 🤣

In my ideal room, there would be indirect overhead lighting that illuminated most of the ceiling to provide an indirect overhead area light, with a near-head level accent lights. I’ve looked into if I could use a short-throw projector onto the ceiling to provide some kind of crazy configurable overhead lighting, but they’re simply not meant for that kind of application

RabbitMix ,

Im quite Neurodivergent and i absolutely love harsh overhead lighting, i want to be bathed in light

Sorry but no.
Desklamp is where it’s at. Can’t stand ceiling lights if they are behind me.

PeriodicallyPedantic ,

I prefer not to be lit like a b-movie villain, when I’m walking around in my own home, but you do you.

“This woman, who suffers from body dysphoria and constantly gets more and more plastic surgery (a behavior which harms no one but herself) is the same as this fictional serial killer who tortured hundreds of people to death.”

But in all seriousness, I don’t think it’s nice to make fun of people’s appearance.

Sent this to my wife and we talked a bit about how I don’t like lights on.

I realized that even when I’m home alone at night (and not taking care so that she doesn’t wake up), I will use the flashlight/torch on my cell phone rather than turn on lights in the house.

bolexforsoup ,

Turning on the lights in the room at night, especially when you’re trying to go to sleep, is going to be far more disruptive for you mentally. So it actually makes a lot more sense to use a small light just to spot what you need to and then quickly turn it off after

ericatty ,

I’m the wife and I’m like you. I will stand in the dark and wait for my eyes to adjust rather than turn on a light.

We have fairy lights and red LED string lights for the high traffic areas to dissuade hubby from flipping on the overhead.

Low light motion sensor nightlights for a couple spots so that we don’t step on a cat on the way to the bathroom.

The kitchen lights are dimmable, so we can go bright when needed to cook, and dim if just searching for a snack.

I love it. He has given in and adjusted. I find it calm and cozy.

neo ,

Well, it’s nice that you two found a common ground here, wife and husband. It is a bit weird you did so by communicating via Lemmy comments, but’s great if this works for you. ;)

ericatty ,

My husband isn’t on Lemmy, lol. I was just pointing out that my house has a similar light dynamic as this guy’s. And that sometimes it’s the wife with the light sensitivity. And yes, I know I’m weird for it compared to other people. :)

deadsenator ,
@deadsenator@lemmy.ca avatar

I think Neo was just making a joke about the two of you being husband and wife and discussing the issue here instead of IRL.

Tlaloc_Temporal ,

I have my phone’s flashlight hooked up to the extra button that was supposed to be for an ai assistant, and I use it more than every other non-keyboard button on every other device I own combined.

Not only am I more comfortable in the natural light/darkness, I never need to make a return trip to turn the lights out.

Imgonnatrythis ,

Samsung? Not a fan of the Bixby AI that’s going to take the world by storm? Do you have a way to set a timer on it or does it only turn on while you hold the button? I’d worry about accidental triggering (since I do accidentally trigger that bitch Bixby every once in awhile.)

Tlaloc_Temporal ,

Bixby is the one yeah. Until AI assistants can ask clarifying questions and replicate arbitrary actions, they’ll just get in my way.

As for the method, I use bxActions to remap buttons. You can add an action for a single press, a double press, a long press, and a double press and hold, and then a different set of actions on the lockscreen too.

Single press does indeed get pressed accidentally sometimes, so I have that as Media play/pause. Flashlight gets put on long press, which has extra functionality; if you release as soon as it comes on, it’s a toggle, but if you keep holding the button it will turn off when you release it. Very convenient. The double press and double hold set screen rotation, although I don’t use then very often. Double press on the lockscreen opens the camera.

You can add lots of other actions too, like an extra bright flashlight (both flashlights automatically turn off after 5 minutes), launch apps, switch apps, take a screenshot, use google assistant instead, set sound setting (like do not disturb, or IOS mode), other media buttons, volume buttons, home button, back button, open some system utilities, change one handed mode, toggle the screen (like pressing the power button), toggle fullscreen, and do some notification managment. Oh, and did I mention you can rebind the volume buttons too? That’s 24 different actions you can bind.

Only issue I’ve had is it’s not a system service, so android likes to kill it when it gets low on battery or RAM. But that’s a problem for every custom service.

TL;DR: Both. Flashlight gets a 5 minute timer, and I also have it on a long press.

Imgonnatrythis ,

Interesting. Unfortunately it seems they’ve made this much more difficult in newer phones. That app doesn’t run on S23 and it seems like the available ones that do can’t manipulate the power button.

Zink ,

Dimmable RGB LED bulbs are for this. One command can turn on all the lights to 100% in soft white color. Another can set them all to 1% and orange color. The color change makes the room even darker than just setting the lights to 1% at normal color.

That’s the family-friendly version anyway. If I’m the only one up, I’m totally content with everything off.

To be more realistic the wolfox would be saying he is going to eat all the sheep, and the sheep will be talking amongst themselves saying he’ll settle down once he gets into power and what he is saying is just to anger the wokes

Zink ,

Honestly I think you’re giving the sheep’s human counterparts too much credit. They don’t acknowledge that they are potential prey, even while actively being victimized.

set_secret ,

He’d be saying sheep who get eaten are suckers and losers…

usernamesAreTricky OP ,

Quite a range of things. It’s so many It’s hard to list them all. Some of these are more global than others:

Eyestalk ablation is the removal of one (unilateral) or both (bilateral) eyestalks from a crustacean. It is routinely practiced on female shrimps (or female prawns) in almost every marine shrimp maturation or reproduction facility in the world, both research and commercial.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyestalk_ablation

Chick culling or unwanted chick killing is the process of separating and killing unwanted (male and unhealthy female) chicks for which the intensive animal farming industry has no use. It occurs in all industrialised egg production, whether free range, organic, or battery cage.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chick_culling

A gestation crate, also known as a sow stall, is a metal enclosure in which a farmed sow used for breeding may be kept during pregnancy.[1][2][3] A standard crate measures 6.6 ft x 2.0 ft (2 m x 60 cm).[4][5]

[…]

There were 5.36 million breeding sows in the United States as of 2016, out of a total of 50.1 million pigs.[8] Most pregnant sows in the US are kept in gestation crates.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gestation_crate

Ventilation shutdown (VSD) is a means to kill livestock by suffocation and heat stroke in which airways to the building in which the livestock are kept are cut off. It is used for mass killing — usually to prevent the spread of diseases such as avian influenza. Animal rights organizations have called the practice unethical.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventilation_shutdown

The2b ,

The one that got me most was Thumping, the standard operating procedure for killing baby piglets. They grab them by the back of the head and smash them into concrete until they’re dead, depicted ~6 minutes into Dominion
