I tend to explain stuff to myself to figure out if I think I got it. Sometimes I try explaining stuff on reddit and hope anyone corrects me if I’m wrong. Works great imho.

I cant find anyone claiming all christians are brutal ass-backwards murderers but it probably exist. Not that anyone cares enough to cause a diplomatic issue just for that. Also the “christians” burns other “christians” Bible’s too ocassionally, just because of slight differences. Probably a big reason why nobody cares anymore.
emptyother@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Kuwait to distribute 100,000 copies of Quran in Sweden after Muslim holy book desecrated at one-man protestEnglish2·2 years agoI dont know how useful it would be. I’ve read some of the Bible and it seems VERY separated from the morality of real life christians.
emptyother@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your favorite technology? What makes your like it like that?4·2 years agoYeah, it IS cool! Even cooler is learning how language and words has evolved over time. A word you thought you knew might have had completely different meaning a few years or a century ago, and often gives a hint about the culture back then. If I redid my life, I would love to have become a language researcher.
emptyother@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your favorite technology? What makes your like it like that?4·2 years agoThe written word is well and good, but writing and reading didn’t become common among everyone until some figured out how to mass-produce writings. The modern world, easy access to education, and many battles for equality and freedom, they couldn’t have happened without printed books. We can learn about the sagas and myths of countless cultures around the world without being a noble or a monk or a scribe, and without knowing the original language. So… Books. The magic in writing became so much more powerful with books.
emptyother@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your favorite technology? What makes your like it like that?7·2 years agoI feel that for the rentable e-bikes and e-kick scooters. No need for overcrowded buses or car queues. No need to be afraid my bike is gonna get stolen when i park it. They are everywhere in the city. And is often faster than the bus too.
Just too bad some people cant park them properly, cant follow simple rules, and cant not try to ruin them.

emptyother@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Lemmy users who feel the heaviness of depression, what issue in your life weighs you down the most?English6·2 years agoAh. I think theres a lot of people who dont mind doing a single culture. As long as the single culture is THEIR culture only.
But I dont think a single culture is possible with humans. We are trained to spot differences in other humans, and sort people into “us” and “them”.
emptyother@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Lemmy users who feel the heaviness of depression, what issue in your life weighs you down the most?English2·2 years agoAt least you get feedback. I dont know what I do wrong or right, I’m just ignored. Maybe a gendered thing? I mean I have never heard someone tell a man his low ranking to his face. But also I dont know if I could have handled the amount and kind of feedback I’ve heard you women get. It probably hurts, and I’d probably punch someone eventually.

emptyother@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Lemmy users who feel the heaviness of depression, what issue in your life weighs you down the most?English2·2 years agoSo I’ve heard. The latest anti-depressants helped with my will to exercise. Right now I’m trying for at least 6k steps a day and one swimming session a week. It has reversed my weight-trend (and I’ve gone down two notches on my wrist watch as of yesterday). Small victory. Maybe it’ll eventually work better against my brainfog too.

Gamedev, web dev, frontend, backend, desktop. I have mostly stayed within the languages c# and typescript.
emptyother@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Lemmy users who feel the heaviness of depression, what issue in your life weighs you down the most?English29·2 years agoBrainfog. Difficulty concentrating. No desire to do my own programming projects anymore. And without my anti-depressant I cant even muster the will to read a book, what used to be my favorite pastime. Or even take a walk. What annoy me the most is that these are symptoms of depression, but also what seemingly is the reason I’m depressed!
Oh, and stuck in a rented tiny apartment with a roommate who dont clean. And I no longer have the energy to clean for two. But that at least is solvable, I just need to save up money enough to get my own place.

emptyother@lemmy.worldto Programming@programming.dev•[closed] [help] what font do you use in your code editor/IDE?English2·2 years agoHeres a diagram of what the whole nerd-font set contains: https://www.nerdfonts.com/assets/img/sankey-glyphs-combined-diagram.png
I’m using it for my oh-my-posh theme and posh-git. Showing icons for git status and product icon for the remote service (github/bitbucket/azure). There are also themes that uses the weather icons, I’ve seen. And probably a bunch of other uses for someone more creative than me.
emptyother@lemmy.worldto Programming@programming.dev•[closed] [help] what font do you use in your code editor/IDE?English2·2 years agoI might be wrong but I thought the official version only had “Powerline with extra symbols”. Not Font Awesome, Material Design Icons, Weather, Devicons, Octicons, Font Logos, Pomicons, or Codeicons?
emptyother@lemmy.worldto Programming@programming.dev•[closed] [help] what font do you use in your code editor/IDE?English1·2 years agoDelugia Code. Which is just Cascadia Code merged with Nerd Fonts. Useful for terminals. One could also just get the Nerd font patched with Cascadia Code, they are almost the same.
Once I can pick and choose my body and change it on a whim, and it feels like my body, Im gonna end up staying in VR unhealthily much.
Even with the tech we have today, when I first used VR and selected a body for something like VRChat, I started feeling like the body was my own. You know the “fake hand” experiment? Something like that. But the illusion is quickly destroyed as soon as I touch something or movement dont match up. And the effect gets weaker for each time.
It was such a cool feeling. I want it again.
