studies can say basically anything all you have to do is choose arbitrary datapoints you want to connect and find the sample selection where it's a trend we could make our own studies and publish this crap i don't know why we don't i bet i could gather the data and you write the article within a day
fish got some research she did while working on her masters published about the mating rituals for an invasive species of fish here it was in a big journal too she's really smart

Ah I thought of another one Although rather than gaining the power to overcome god level magic the premise was that the mc was secretly a magician and accidentally got summoned along with his friend who is the actual summoned hero But in fact magic from "our" world is way more advanced than the magic in the world he got summoned into
>>230851 I guess it is now that you mention it literally seeing my beating heart is pretty intimate I'll have to think of some sappy lines to embarrass her with THAT'S BEATING FOR YOU BABE
>>230853 wanna guess what it was this time? HOLLOW EARTH i didn't even know this was a fuckin thing and also THE SOLAR ECLIPSE IS THE RAPTURE I KNOW IT

i know i'm pretty out there and crazy, but when i step back and look at my family it's pretty amazing i do as well as i do and my cousin is trying to go back to college to study paranormal psychology lol
>>230885 did i ever tell you about my other (more rational) cousin who had me come spend the night because she thought there was ghosts at her house and was really creeped out she's like hxc atheist and an engineer and stuff too she's not at all about that stuff but she was legit freaked out
>>230886 i dont believe in ghosts and stuff but i get so spooked after watching a ghost documentary or movie no joke
月
>>230890 i stayed out there like for two hours in the middle of the night where the ghosts were i made up something to calm her down by telling her i felt an anxious force but not an angry or spiteful force and that it was just lost and confused but very peaceful and she's like okay thanks and we never talked about it again
what's scary about aliums? i think they'd be really cool they'd be so different than us it'd be like looking at really complex but totally different neural networks and what kind of crazy stuff they come up with to solve their ecological hurdles
i live in a world where i'd be more scared of other humans than aliums or ghosts >>230923 but who's going to protect the aliens from your girlfriend? good night
Real aliens are definitely more scary. Real aliens would destroy your planet with relativistic weapons before you knew what were before you knew what was going on out of self-preservation.
I don't really believe in the stuff too much, but sometimes I think about demons and get spooked too like my brain hallucinates things in sleep paralysis sometimes and it's really scary when there's demons jumping out of your drapery because your brain wants to piece together the sporadic design pattern and sees weird things that's really scary stuff
FormerRei@mobile
>>230932 Real aliens probably exist But we'll probably never encounter them or find traces of them and vice versa
Maria
>>230932 real aliens would just send a giant chunk of rock at super high speed and there'd be nothing we could do
>>230939 That's what a relativistic weapon is. If you accelerate a moderately sized object at a fraction of the speed of light, you can blow someone's planet up before they're literally able to see it coming.
>>230940 The universe is relatively young if you want to get scientific about it. If you don't want to be scientific about it, you can probably guess my answer as to why I don't think aliens exist.
Marsh-chan
>>230943 but if you don't speak the truth who will?
月
>>230939 we can counteract that by just sending a chunk of rock at a really low speed they'll cancel each other out because they're opposites
>>230950 What happens if it meets an unmoveable object?
FormerRei@mobile
>>230947 I won't deny that it would be able to destroy earth But I think you are underestimating just how good we are at monitoring activity within the solar system And also are underestimating the sheer size of it
>>230951 It's kinda scary. In a universe where relativistic weapons are possible and easy to make, the only real way to treat your neighbor is to blow him to smithereens before he can think about doing it to you.
>>230952 No, you literally cannot detect a relativistic weapon before it hits you.
FormerRei@mobile
>>230957 If it's slower than light it can be detected Also disregarding concepts such as " sufficiently advanced technology" (indistinguishable from magic) and sort of launch device *any Would likely be detected before launch Primarily from the massive amount of em noise created by such a large electronic machine
>>230958 How exactly would you detect an object moving at 75% the speed of light?
>>230962 Our sun is among the first generation of yellow stars that exists. I bet you didn't know that! We're one of the first earthlike planets out there in terms of a universal timescale.
Maria
>>230965 Oh boy, maybe we'll be the first species to develop in the universe and we can dominate every other alien species
FormerRei@mobile
>>230965 By looking at it By detecting its heat signature By bouncing radar waves off of it Etcetera
>>230973 Yes, why are you greentexting at me? The only context in which I am aware that radio waves move faster than the speed of lgiht is when a pulsar is involved. If the aliens are throwing pulsars at you, you are already in trouble.
FormerRei@mobile
>>230975 Radiowaves travel at exactly the speed of light because they are light Infrared radiation travels at exactly the speed of light because it is light
>>230976 That's right, radio waves and heat waves don't travel any faster than light. I gave you an easy one, 75% the speed of light and you will still not have much time to react to it.
A proper relativistic weapon travels at 99% the speed of light, and there's no way to react to that.
>>230978 There's no way to react, but its not neccesarily impossible to detect. Also you are contradicting yourself a bit there Anyways here's a map of the em spectrum
>>230979 So you agree with me, that you'd have no time to react to a relativistic weapon and you'd die to it and your planet would explode. I'm glad that you agree with me, and I accept your apology.
relativistic weaponry isn't very accurate! assuming it's space-launched if yer' talkin some sci fi gadgetry then that's gonna require some next level stuff to get to relativistic speeds without taking great amounts of distance and time to accelerate it a grabbity gun usin the moon as a slingshot should have enough kinetic force for what you want and would still be pretty discreet
FormerRei@mobile
>>230984 I never said you woukdnt die to it, I said it wouldnt neccesarily be undetectable Also full disclosure I have about half a physics degree so I know a hell of a lot more about making things move and how to detect things that move than you do I never said "it woukdn't destroy earth" I only said "it wouldn't neccesarily be undetectable"
>>230993 It's all waves, but it's obvious we were talking about visible light.
>>230991 Everything I said is basically right! He's just fighting over the incredibly semantic point that you could possible possibly if you were looking for it realize that you were going to die like five seconds before you died
>>230985 Yeah, it would be hard to hit stuff with it. You could probably blow up someone's planet with it though.
FormerRei@mobile
>>230994 Not in the case of this conversation Anyways as a general rule in discussions about physics "light" refers to the entire EM spectrum not just visible light Also it doesnt really matter whether or not the lught is "visible" ##because no matter what wavelength it still has the same velocity in a vacuum
>>230994 the degree of calculation you'd need gets exponentially larger the closer you want it to relativistic speeds it's probably possible but i don't think anyone that advance to have that much computational power wouldn't waste it on something so trivial unless there's some mega-rich alien overlord that's using all his information processing allocation credits to blow up planets just to show off how much data currency he has speaking of... rip guam
FormerRei@mobile
>>230994 One of your core arguments was that "it would be impossible to detect" I don't really think its an incredibly semantic point to refute it
>>231001 Guam will be okay. Kim is just shaking his fists again.
>>231002 The argument that you could detect it moments before your demise is kind of an asanine one. I'm willing to concede that point.
FormerRei@mobile
>>231003 It's not asinine because you seem to have a very distorted sense of scale in regards to how fast things move and how big the solar system is. For an actual truly impossible to detect (barring things like wormholes) instant death you need something traveling at exactly the speed of light that can kill everything on earth such as a gamma ray burst.
The speed of light in a vacuum is the universal speed limit, information can't travel faster than light. But because it can travel at the speed of light you can in theory detect any large mass traveling towards earth a head of time

>>231020 i remember watching kaiji with sugoi and gettin him fucked up on two blueberry smirnoff ices who drinks that fruity shit anyway faggots, that's who
Maria
>>231022 take a shot every time you hear a zawa zawa >faggots that's who I bet you love it then
>>231010 well if you're looking at what's POSSIBLE and not what's currently feasible, you need to take into account the ability to parse data in real time meaning there's the ability to interpret the state of the dynamic system and interpret intention as it happens then you've got the entire journey of the relativistic kill vehicle to avoid it
which is like several years information interacts at the speed of causality, c, yes, but that's kind of a narrow view point
FormerRei@mobile
>>231037 It's a moot point anyways because we have no reason to believe there are aliens in the solar system, let alone aliens with the capability of launching a relativistic projectile
>>231046 I mean I guess it was, but I have a screen cap of rika saying that (via the transitive property) light is slower than light and light is slower than light so light and light can't be used to detect things traveling slower than light.
keep in mind I said transitive property
Maria
>>231042 What if humans did it though Like we hijack a comet or something And then smash that mother fucker into NK
月
>>231049 comets would just be kinetic ballistic vehicles they're nowhere near relativistic it'd be a pretty bad idea no matter how you split it though comets have weird amino acids in them that aren't part of our life structure who knows what could happen
Maria
>>231053 What about those precision satellite rods I remember people talking about
yeah but conversations are enjoyment based and people are free to leave when the fun is sapped out so it's kind of a balancing act of trying to communicate your ideas in a way that appeals to the person's intrigue fundamental logic helps tactically advance a point but the logical reasoning behind trying to convey a concept to a person with a different value set operating as a different informational system involves a lot of decryption and repackaging of assets it's just as much about understanding where they're at as it is knowing what you're trying to convey
>>231065 yeah it's fucking cool isn't it You'd be fighting and everything seems like it's lost, but then suddenly a giant spear crashes down from the heavens and obliterates everything around it with pinpoint accuracy

>>231114 Yeah, I wish I could get the full telescope setup. I think I looked at the sun like that once. But I don't have a telescope and I'll be at work.
i dojn't // don't think it's as bad as the claims old astronomers used to set their telescopes straight up at the sun to study sun spots yeah they went blind but after like a decade
FormerRei@mobile
>>231126 You looked at the sun through a telescope? >>231127 Particle physicists used to align beamlines in linear accelerators by looking down the tubes Just cause people did it doesnt mean its a good idea
>>231129 No, you look at the sun with a telescope. You aim the telescope at the sun and it reflects it onto a little metal plate and it's much more dim so you can actually look at it.
>>231127 I don't like bright things so I wouldn't be able to do that. >>231130 It's not a waifu thing, you say?

isn't the regulation what opens the door for cartels to start doing their thing the war on opioids is just helping the cartels right now because it's creating even more of a demand

there's no war on opioids come on more demand is the point

>>231508 well the opioid control measures whatever you wanna call it two of the larger black market sites just got perma shut down though so i dunno i guess the timing is there >>231511 well how it started and where it's at are kind of different things it's still a lot of momentum behind it and the cartels are gonna creep up on that and have been for a while although i'd really think trying to crack down on opioids now that we do have better medical understanding of them seems a little backwards last generation was irresponsible with them so we'll make sure the responsible generation that learned from that can't utilize the tools anymore
patients are way more educated now and there might be some who intend to abuse but most people i think do actually want to get better
Kirara☆
less regulation started the epidemic pharma had tons of opioids that nobody wanted so they pushed research that said it wasn't addictive and got regulations lifted so they could push it the current crisis is from that and current regulations are attempts at managing it

i mean i totally agree pharma fucked it all up but the image painted is that the users are all a bunch of degenerate druggies tryin to push their doctors for narcotics but it started the other way around it's so fucked up the way we treat people

what we need is consumer protection

we're protecting them by putting them behind bars where no doctors can harm them and also tarnishing their medical records to prevent them from any doctors ever taking them seriously again it's fucked up because my mom's got a torn labrum and she has to keep switching doctors to find someone who will just order an MRI for her because they all see that she's been on opioids in the past and was recently discontinued from them last year and now she's coming in saying she's got a torn labrum and also just hopped between three different doctors she doesn't even want any pain drugs she just wants an MRI but this fuckin asshole won't order it, even though a very highly renowned surgeon in the area personally called him and requested that he order an MRI
fuckin doctors man so much med school competition and ego about your medical opinion being right they'll never do something another doctor asks them to do fuckin idiot just got out of med school like two years ago and he took a look at her meds and cut her off clonazepam cold turkey saying "you dont need it" on the first visit with her like how would he even know it's so fucked up

she's in so much pain all the time and these doctors will schedule an appointment like a month out and she has to wait in anticipation for a month while in pain and not knowing if it's going to do anything this time around and then has to make her way up to the fuckin place an hour away as a disabled person just to be ignored by the doctor and scolded for trying to get meds refilled that aren't even opioids every time she visits the doctor she's always calling me up and in tears thinking it's so hopeless that nobody's taking her seriously it makes me so angry and i feels // feel so bad for her

Am I weird for thinking that its rude for someone who isnt busy (or incapacitated) to not respond to a "hey wanna hang out" sort if text message *sort of within thirty minutes or so of receiving it?
FormerRei@mobile
Or rather than it being rude for just a singke incidence, *single to be rude for it as a consistent pattern of incidents over an extended period of time
FormerRei@mobile
Or if its not rude for thirty minutes, is it rude for an hour?
Anno
You should really be asking the person who is acting like that the question.
FormerRei@mobile
>>231580 Asking him if he thinks its rude would come off as preachy and or passive aggressive. Also while I'm only really referring to one person right now, I have a few other friends with similar patterns. Although I figured out one of them (guy who sleeps at really random times) I'm just trying to get a gauge of how other people think about the behavior since I'm not great at interpreting that sort of thing.
hey guys i need to go to the store to buy rice and limes can one of you go for me
Anno
Not really, no.
>>231581 Well if people here say yes it is rude, then what does that make your friend's situation. Would that encourage you to become rude and preachy to tell him to respond better. If we say no, perhaps our own situations aren't accurate in your friend's frame of reference and maybe they are intentionally trying to be rude towards you. There is utterly no value in your situation for us to say whether we feel about it one way or another.
>>231584 It's not neccesarily rude or preachy to confront a friend about a pattern of behavior of theirs >>231587 As someone who has a history of having a variety of behaviours that are rude/inappropriate/inconvenient to others I can say with the utmost confidence that in some circumstances it is entirely appropriate to approach someone about a troublesome behavior as long as you convey it properly
Anno
As someone who has been rude and preachy to others about them being tardy about responding I can say with absolute confidence that it is necessarily rude and preachy. Don't fucking do that man that's how you lose friends.

>>231626 There really is a bit of a cliff for newcomers to the game to climb before they can understand what's going on in the matches, eh. Like, you can tell from visual cues and caster commentary if one team is doing particularly good or bad, but nuances are lost really easily, and close games can be hard to tell who's slightly ahead.
>>231629 i think if it's broken down well, people will dig into it our brains crave new information like, ive never even watched avatar, but i started listening to e;r riff on korra and all the shit it does wrong and within five minutes i was hooked into watching four hours of his ranting
i think the reason we're so averse to blocks of new information is there's no hooks it really takes some talent to reveal those hooks to people who don't even know what's going on
Anno
Yeah, I'm speaking more from how it's currently set up and how the casting and panel talent currently talks about the game. One thing I have been liking from this International is the introduction of Day9 as the panel host. He's not a stranger to the game, but as a player he's much more in line with people of less experience and lower skill ranks. So he can approach questions from a wider base--but that base is still inside the realm of people that already play DotA. There still isn't really much to work on for people that are strangers to the game or more importantly, people who are strangers to competitive games and gaming in general.
Hrrm The bundle also has town of salem (which I'm not interested in but might give to someone) and some game where you play as a father trying to prevent his infant child from killing itself by accident It's multiplayer so another person plays as the baby and tries to kill itself Or vice versa >>231638 I never liked Werewolf or games like it (I've played quite a few at the behest if my friends) so I don't really think I'd enjoy it.

for some reason my laptops speakers are like super fucking loud i figured the sound quality would be garbage like every other laptop i've used but it's not maybe that's why it was 800 fucking dollars
it performs quite admirably in modern games but i bet you could build a similar desktop from scratch for around $450 maybe bump the price range up to like $600-$650 and you could have a significantly better computer but since it's portable, and actually pretty light, I guess that justifies the price hike I just wish it was more feasible to replace laptop parts
i guess another thing to consider is that you'll be spending an extra $100-200 if you don't have applicable accessories like mouse and keyboard and a monitor so if you don't already have a computer a laptop is a more reasonable expense but it still strikes me as greedy capitalistic bullshit
>>231653 I am suddenly reminded. I don't know if this is a modest mouse song but I always remember this because I listened to it and Float On. There was this song called Father of Mine. And I thought it was a really cool song. Mainly because of the line >My daddy gave me a name but I never registered the part >and then he walked away! So when I actually paid attention to the words I was like oh ohhhhhh >>231668 I bet. I figured it was different because the music feels different. I just remember the two songs being played together often at something.

a squirrel threw a pecan at me and by a pecan i mean my pecan from my pecan tree fucking thieves
Kannagi
You have a pecan tree? How fancy
Anno
i have very many young pecan trees around it because of these FUCKING SQUIRRELS they don't even eat the whole pecan they break the fucking thing open and throw it on the ground
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
let them grow, dig them up and plant in a pots and sell to people
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
saplings fetch a good price afterall
Anno
that sounds like a lot of work i don't know if pecan trees are in very high demand here though pecans are quite abundant in texas
Kannagi
Become a rich pecan salesman. Go door to door high pressure pecan salesman

>>231691 prepare a patch of dozen or so saplings and sell them to a wholesale store and then become a steady supplier of pecan sapling suppliers and make it a side job doesn't take that much effort, just takign care of them some and uprooting them at t some point and keeping the quality of the soil at a steady level and some trimming at times
>>231693 pecan trees are like the most common tree in texas and native to the valleys of the state though if you want a pecan tree you can just go get one like for free
>>231697 the roots are too entangled to rip them out you will need a shovel unless you're some superhulk monster that can rip about 15-20 trees spanning seven sq ft out of the ground at once
I dunno. I haven't seen or heard about any of it. I didn't even know about the stuff around 10, though.
I'm okay. I was really productive today. I did my doctors appointment and then I dropped Fish off at the hospital and went home and did a bunch of chores. Now everything is super clean.

>>231738 I dunno if the ones I bumped off the front page last night got cleaned up

I fucked up differently than usual today Instead of not doing things (my main issue) I did a thing at the wrongtime and completely wasted money, time and effort
>>231758 Oh that's neat. Iguess he'll be usable for that at least. I plan to level him and keep him around anyway because he has that +sp ability for sword users. Those characters are great for training others.
On the other hand, the 5 star Lukas I got has like the recommended IVs and he's level 40 now and actually pretty good. His def is so high.
Yeah so he'll get to survive. He'll probably be useful in those hero gauntlets anyway, I need as many decent characters as I can get.
I decided to dump my latest 20k feathers on Sheena. She's pretty tanky, she's very useful in the arena gauntlet thing since you can preview the teams. Certain teams she can just straight up solo.
