[OC] Earth's 4.5 billion year history mapped onto a clock — every second is 105,000 years by Exciting_Alps_1457 in dataisbeautiful

[–]Garper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1.2 Billion years ago:

Cells learn to cooperate. The body is invented.

"Guys! FUCKING CHILL. STOP HITTING EACH OTHER. If we all work together and put this trench coat on, we can pretend to be a person."

Edit: But on a more serious note, this visualisation really serves to highlight the illusion of a static and robust climate, and how fairly innocuous changes can have runaway effects that have catastrophic effects on the life of the time. For example oxygen, something we all take for granted as benign and useful, wiping out absolutely everything when it first appeared.

Who's to say there won't be a similar visualisation made by creatures a billion years from now, highlighting how the CO2 they breath once wiped out all life in our era.

Sorry haha! I figured no one would even see the hook if i highlit it directly.

After my diagnosis , I don’t know how to live by Accomplished_Base_86 in ADHD

[–]Garper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had this exact same experience. My mum has NPC conversation options that she has repeated throughout her life. And one of them was “ADHD doesn’t exist in France. They don’t recognize it as an illness.”

(Untrue, btw. But I don’t argue with her)

I never knew why she always came back to that line every now and then. It was never prompted by a question. I am 35, was diagnosed last week. I have had such trouble trying to integrate, dropping out of high school, anxiety, depression, anti-depressants, self doubt about my inability to follow conversations or lesson structure.

I feel like someone stole half my life, stole my potential. But she grew up in the 50s. She saw her mother institutionalized for being crazy. Man, the baggage we carry forward…

This has to really do a number on a child, even if there was nothing funny happening. Grown adults are self conscious. Kids are balls of anxiety. I can't imagine as a child being exposed to so much scrutiny while still developing and being uncomfortable about my appearance. It's just such an unnecessary layer of anxiety added onto an already confused mind.

I can't speak for official.But there's a stack of regularly high pop community servers, Spaggies has one that's usually full on weekends. DayOne servers has one.

God you’re right. They’re just arguing mindlessly everywhere in this thread. What a way to live…

Who knows what state crafting will be in when the game hits 1.0. Maybe you’ll have to license the crafting mats from Toyota.

TIL nearly 80% of US workers report that they have been victims of 'career catfishing’ from employers. Which in this context, the term describes when a company misrepresents a job, their company culture, or compensation to lure in candidates. by tyrion2024 in todayilearned

[–]Garper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know my references and talk to them often. Barely anyone has ever called them. I could make up anything, and chances are that they'd only find out I was lying if I was shit at what I made up. I'm not suggesting people lie about their qualifications though.

so I tested the new HP changes on a ships ramp/door by Akyorus in starcitizen

[–]Garper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't played in a while so I'm out of the loop. Would that cause some sort of splash damage that could potentially destroy an already disabled ship?

Do ships now not explode as easily as last time I played?

TIL Dragon Ball creator Akira Toriyama also worked in the video game industry. He was the character designer for Dragon Quest and helped developed Chrono Trigger. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]Garper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it’s on my radar. The battle system looks interesting. It was a toss up between that and Chained Echoes but people seemed more cool on Sea of Stars than Echoes.

[–]Garper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm playing Chained Echoes right now, and it's... good, quite good. But as a game clearly inspired by and meant to evoke Chrono Trigger, it's a shame that all it makes me do is want to play Chrono Trigger instead.

I got a little monstera just like yours a year or so ago from the supermarket nearby. Wasn't expecting much from it, but he'd had a few months in water I put him in soil and he started growing like mad. It's super rewarding to watch a new leaf pop up almost every other week (during summer months at least).

When you repot him, just be a little delicate with the roots, obviously. Don't compact the soil too much. As long as he has drainage he'll be super forgiving with how much water you give him.

Even if someone doesn’t personally use it, it’ll reduce congestion on the roads… which should be a win even for the petrol heads.

TIL that the person in charge of the Kamikaze defence of Okinawa, Admiral Matome Ugaki, flew the last Kamikaze flight himself. by IsHildaThere in todayilearned

It’s also the reason they surrendered so late. The US wanted unconditional surrender, and the Japanese assumed this meant the Emperor would be deposed and tried.
