Yeah, never rub. I also saw a study semi-recently about sleeping on stomach as a possible cause as it increases the pressure on eyes during sleep. Not sure how accurate the study is but I did used to do it a lot.

I (oddly) have a pretty good success rate for imagining dying in some way. Not sure it's something I can recommend for everyone tho. I'm guessing that acting it out in my mind achieves a similar effect as the steps described - I r

I believe it's claimed to be originally designed/used by a music sharing community (etree.org) where artists explicitly gave permission.

Technically yes, practically there should be no way to know which account has which phone number. The bigger problem is if the site requires you to re-verify your phone for whatever reason (for ex. paypal does when you access it from a stra

Yep, the "wat" talk helped, got 17/25 first try since I recalled some of the weirdness.

There's plenty of valid criticisms against crypto, I feel like they've picked some of the weakest ones. > cryptocurrencies are used because people think they will one day replace traditional money Maybe a tiny minority, sounds

A colleague of mine was attending a local tech conference just before Covid hit. I believe it was aimed at newcomers and various companies tried to show off exciting tech that interns/new coders could potentially work on. She couldn&#x

It's user/malte. Yeah, the docs are lacking. AME/AME Guides Telegram groups have been a good source of info for common problems.

Reminds me of the old obscure UK laws that make it illegal to carry a plank on the pavement or "play annoying games" (lol). https://www.lawcom.gov.uk/app/uploads/2015/03/Legal_Oddities...

The way I see it it's software that does something that a human is "supposed to do". Eg chat is for humans but a chat bot will use the chat's interface for automating some tasks. Or bots in a multiplayer game take place

Yep, same, thanks! NickServ didn't know any of the usernames I think I had.

Q: Do accounts/channels that have been inactive for years get purged automatically? Used to have some stuff there, not sure if it's worth the time to find the correct emails/passwords.

Yep, another link has draft in the filename and libera.chat doesn't seem to be operating yet. Looks like there's been a leak.

Yep, still have to use the web UI. Just switched to syncthing from dropbox a month ago, been awesome so far!

Some of the disease names look so mysterious they'd fit great as lore in an RPG.

The 10 year olds may end up better adapted than us old farts. Haven't we been here before? TV? Video games?

Well, I still don't think there's any souls/free will etc in the academic or "objective world" that is provably out there. However I don't think we're living there. We live in our own minds with a limited

Only pointing out that there's no meaningful convo to be had at hardware/micro level. IMO there is no free will there. Free will only becomes important on a personal (I do x because it's meaningful to me) or social contexts (

Would it really matter if parts of your "will" are running on deterministically moving particles or random ones?

I think the proper technique was using conditional jumps (that always end up jumping) so the disasm thinks the next instruction should come right after it (in case the jump isn't taken). It then becomes undecidable which is the correct

Aww, I really liked the demo too. Wonder if it would be possible to do a simplified 2D version in a window frame or something. Should also reduce the risk of burning someone's eyes out.

For x86 disassembly probably the easiest thing to do is cause a "desync" of some sort - add a dummy byte before one of the instructions (and jump over it) and everything after that is dissembled incorrectly (as most instructions a
