Doesn't work for people with connected muscles for pinkies😔
I'm not sure how fantastical your world is but maybe nightglasses rather than sunglasses. simulates natural night vision, could have some interesting side effects if used a lot.
Nah you got it perfect! (Also holy shit I didn't expect to find a volapük learner on Lemmy)
Film theory did an interesting video where they concluded it'd be okay since he'd only be intaking a little over time. (Not saying that's true)
Yeah they reference this in the book, it's always from him when he uses the bacteria (meaning in theory it's only his own pathogens or bacteria). He uses his crews shit that's been dried and left in Martian temperatures so it's sterilised.
Progressive taxes are a way to make up for the imbalance of poorer people spending a higher proportion of their income on essentials, it's a fundamental of economics. Although I have heard that the tax brackets in Russia are completely flat (not that that makes it any better).
They do something fun with this in the three body problem. It's amazing and makes a ton of sense but in the real world the application will probably be a lot cleaner.
Also the fact that the economy is managed can mean things aren't always testable. If you think there's going to be a recession based on models and you prevent that by using policy, did you really prevent the recession or was it never going to happen?
I thought the proposal to call them majority world countries was interesting.
Doesn't latent heat change the time taken to cool? Also part of the point of a kettle being that it's 100c wheras a microwave could easily be under since it turns off based on time.
Yeah I got called a narcissist with my worst ex and then just flat out asked if they knew what it meant, I think it was a little telling they didn't actually know (not that I do either lol). It's really hard being with someone who makes you feel loved but doesn't love you and I'm so proud of you for being on the other side of it and being happy!
This is a game called chants of the sennaar and in order to progress in this game you must start to understand the writing system through context and the puzzles presented. I think this works super well and was much easier than I expected.
I kinda like the way this looks as it makes the script predictable but I still feel like it could really be improved
These two are pretty bad in my opinion as I can't really tell where the dots are meant to be and it looks very overcomplicated.
This is the original font and I believe it can be easily written (unfortunately my artistic skill is pretty low).
First panel of a few but I'm not sure if ill finish the whole comic. Translated myself so it's probably bad toaq 😅 but the fun is the journey.
Essentially there's a huge amount of data in one of the VPK files that's being repeated and I think it should be able to be removed, I'm looking at the largest VPK file in the game btw.
I recently commissioned a friend to make a logo for a community I made about writing systems as an art form https://lemmy.world/c/neography and I'm super happy with his work! The title is the middle is great as a logo and the cycles of the moon show time passing along with new ways of writing being discovered. I have no idea how y'all are able to do stuff like this but stay inspired and take care of yourselves!
Maybe people didn't live long enough for skin cancer to make a difference?
