Didn’t he stream a dead body in a Japanese suicide forest shortly after moving to Japan?

No, stop, come back…

Good point, we’ll need at least two ball gags.

Yes, I’ve seen this one before. You start with a nice safe game of “who’s in my mouth?” And then once everyone is warm, you work your way up to ranked competitive sex. Before you know it everyone is too tired to be embarrassed.

It’s funny, when I was in high school and college, I felt a great sense of pride in “conquering” my partner’s home, but as a married adult it does give me some mild ick to get frisky in the guest bed. I mean I still will, but there’s definitely a loss of enthusiasm and willingness to do certain things.

This feels a lot like telling on yourself.

How can we prosecute the fascists if we don’t know who they are?

The same as it always has been. Punk Rock. Conservative shit is so goddamn cringe it’s really hard to imagine how it has convinced anyone that it is any kind of counterculture.

Sometimes it helps to remember that a lot of people are actually hopelessly stupid. And this isn’t like some elitist ivory tower commentary - there is a good percentage of the population which struggles with basic problem solving, knowledge synthesis, critical thought, etc.

“Advanced capitalism” is sometimes literally called a “knowledge economy” and this has really properly fucked people who could have previously earned a fine living doing mindless physical work. And again, this isn’t like some normative statement - for most of human history this equation has been inverted, and intellectual opportunities were scarce. Honestly, part of the problem is probably very specifically that we have hit that inflection point, which is cultivating a new form of alienation for those who are on that lower cognitive tail, who both lack opportunities and are also made to feel inferior for it.

Capitalism probably doesn’t help, but I don’t think male alienation is really unique to this time or culture. Any time you have social hierarchy the lowest tier ends up eating a lot of shit. Our social hierarchy is very capitalist but you’d easily find the same kind of thing even in hunter gatherer societies. Socialism has plenty of hierarchy baked in as well. Anarchists are about the only ones who actively attempt to “flatten” society.

As an engineer this is extremely offensive. MATLAB is for fucking tryhards.

Right, the fact that people are not synchronized sinusoids is why coherence energy is the way I describe it. If you randomly place emitters and receivers in real space, playing real signals with real bandwidth, the distribution of coherence factors between pairwise emitters is generally positive, but is also not 1.0. This is not destructive interference, it’s just just wave mechanics.

This is partially wrong as well. Non-coherent energy does not add like this, and is a perfectly natural phenomenon, not something which only happens in headphones. If you play two synchronized sinusoids some meters apart, you will get perfect energy doubling only along a single line in the far field which is equidistant to both sources. Any angular divergence from this line will reduce the coherence energy relative to the phase angle. Audible sound has a wavelength of about 15m to a few cm so any real channel with any real sound will experience significant total coherence attenuation as a function of the angular offset of each pairwise emitter.

You are correct that a yelling crowd will never be quieter than a single person, but there is a massive natural diminishing effect which prevents a pure log-rule volume increase.

That’s cool Europe probably doesn’t need bees anyway.

More than that, “software engineer” has been drifting towards “software technician” for a while now. If you don’t have any additional physics, math or engineering specialty on top of software skills, things are pretty crowded. Anyone can learn to write decent software. It’s really never been a traditional academic topic for the most part, and AI is definitely making that worse.

Working in a remote environment

This is possibly the stupidest thing ever written by someone who is not a Lemmy dev.
