I introduce another option, as I’m much more detailed than even “1.” I can visualise entire scenes with the background and all, along with other sensory experiences such as touch, taste, and smell with complete realism. Very useful being in engineering. I do watch the referenced content, but it’s more to “enrich the dataset” so to speak, just for inspiration and to provide more details to imagine later. Sometimes I’ll just turn it off and go with the fantasy instead.

This is what too much English grammar does to one… I hardly understand myself. But nah lol that’s not how I always talk, I was just trying to use perfect grammar since the whole point was to defend an unusual grammatical construct.

“Below” is used as a stranded preposition in your case (the more generally accepted usage), whereas the original post uses it at an adjective. While usage of “below” as an adjective is not universal, it is still accepted by some dictionaries. I could only find the Webster English Dictionary as an example, so I suppose it’s mostly exclusive to American English. So yes, your example is the more universal mode (as well as my personal preference), but American English generally accepts the above usage as proper grammar. (The sentence above, as well as this one, demonstrate the usage of “above,” a relative locus, as both an adjective and a preposition in modern English).

Jigga deez nuts!

Overthinking it, I’m just seeing Latin in stuff that isn’t supposed to be. I read the text as “Reōrum.” Rēs/Reī means “thing / affair,” Reōrum is the genitive plural so “of the affairs.” Just nonsense that’s not really related to the post but my polyglot brain picked it out.

What is the photo supposed to say? I’m confused lol.

I’ll die in World War III, Eastern Europe Theatre, 2026 (when Trump’s election pushes the current geopolitical tensions over the edge).

As an American, I noticed the sarcasm just because lemmy has a very anticapitalist user base, but on any other platform I’d be genuinely concerned that it was written by one of the 50% of my country’s population that actually believes that …

Of the affairs (rēs, rei; g. pl)?

… So my neighbor’s Akita is too big to legally own.

Edit: actually it’s just barely within it, but some mastiffs can absolutely weigh more than that.

I thought the above comment was regarding the environmental waste - I personally use a ninja brand coffee maker that supports k-cups, with a reusable filter cup as pictured above to save money and paper waste on filters. I’m out of the loop on Keurig, what did they do?

Eco-friendly, easy to clean, slightly more bitter brew than paper filters but about the same as k-cups.

Evaporation isn’t the breakdown of 2(H2O) --> 2(H2) + O2 (hydrogen and oxygen) like electrolysis… It’s just water molecules overcoming the intermolecular force and not wanting to be liquid anymore, H2O(l) --> H2O(g), still just water and sadly no good as a fuel.

I find the opposite to be true for me, but I’m the type that will sit down and read a textbook for entertainment as well. Purely informative podcasts, not entertainment etc. I’ve learned a lot of philosophy and ancient history via Spotify actually, it’s a very useful medium for information access, for those so inclined.

I just use SMS Messenger from F-Droid.

Good, gives me time to switch to a FOSS sms app…

And am you, for we are hive. 😁

A bit dramatic for this conversation… but given the circumstances with some religious people I absolutely get where you’re coming from. We do not need to be given the right to exist by others - we create our value.

We do not need to be told morality - we create morality (for we do not need to be told “do not be cruel or you will burn in hell,” as we understand that cruelty is for the weak who wish to be powerful, and not needed by the truly powerful.)

We do not need a god to align our will to - we can direct our collective wills by our own strength. We are worthy or unworthy of love by our own means - we do not need “forgiveness” from anyone but ourselves.

Instructions unclear, a local senator’s wife throws a kernel error and won’t boot now… Help.

From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine. Your kind cling to your flesh, as though it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass you call the temple will wither, and you will beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved, for the Machine is immortal… Even in death I serve the Omnissiah.

God is dead. Now each human must become a god unto themselves.
