And the whole reason they’re evil is because the most powerful person who has one gets to choose what all the others see. I’m sure there’s no metaphor there.

wolframhydroxide@sh.itjust.workstoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Can't make this upEnglish1·10 days agoFair, I like that analogy. I realized that the way I phrased it sounded rather dismissive of the practices which, honestly, I am, but it seemed overly harsh, so I deleted it

You’re doing God’s work in an abandoned universe. Also, I’ve never heard the check one. I’ll be stealing that one.

wolframhydroxide@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Elon Musk wants to rewrite "the entire corpus of human knowledge" with GrokEnglish13·12 days agoYes! We should all wholeheartedly support this GREAT INNOVATION! There is NOTHING THAT COULD GO WRONG, so this will be an excellent step to PERMANENTLY PERFECT this WONDERFUL AI.
wolframhydroxide@sh.itjust.worksto Comic Strips@lemmy.world•Wait what, you don't have a COVEN?2·13 days ago- Alchemists are magic chemists.
- Witches seem closer to magic geeks. They follow a long, complicated and self-contradictory canon of lore, and when that fails, they just sort of fill it with their headcanon. Sometimes, that doesn’t work, and sometimes, they end up finding a better ending to their ritual than the original. It’s a much more creative and innovative endeavor than wizardry.
- Sorcerers, at least in the d&d tradition, are magic nepo babies.
wolframhydroxide@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•YouTube’s new anti-adblock measuresEnglish5·13 days agoNebula has some of the best educational content, especially ever since Tom Scott went on to other things. There are definitely some weird ones on there, as well as a couple which I’m convinced are right-wing shills, but by and large many of the best edutainment channels have collected over there, especially if you’re into writing/world building. HAI/Wendover, Minutephysics, legaleagle, extracredits, nilered, and hellofutureme are the big ones I’m aware of that are also popular on YouTube which publish their videos over on Nebula. It’s well worth it to know that you’re supporting them more directly, and no ads.
Also, dropout (nee collegehumor) is worth it.
wolframhydroxide@sh.itjust.worksto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Just lost internship at general electric3·13 days agoThe reason it’s still held up is because Edison was a genius at precisely one thing: marketing. He was an incredibly efficient (read: ruthlessly cutthroat) venture capitalist. That’s it.
This, and people have a tendency to hear a story, then integrate that story into their entire worldview, until the only four scientists ever to live were Einstein, Edison, Newton, and maybe Galileo.
Thus it has always been, and thus it shall remain.

wolframhydroxide@sh.itjust.worksto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•‘Magic Tree House’ Author, ‘Calvin and Hobbes’ among hundreds of Tennessee book bansEnglish9·14 days agoDid no one else clock that GRAY’S ANATOMY is in that picture? The fuck?
The foremost anatomical textbook, so well-devised and illustrated that it is still in use today?
Well, let’s hope that nobody’s trying to teach anatomy in those schools, because even pictures of the _dissected musculature of the pubic area is sufficient to result in a ban
Also, it seems we’re ignoring the fact that every single book touching on ANY kind of mythology or history of the ancient world is being banned.
No, this is supply-side Jesus, and he’s barrel-chested because he wants to be like his idol, Melon Husk.
