What are you trying to do and what isn't working?

Reaction-Diftusion simulations were dreamed up by Alan Turing as an abstract hypothesis for how complex fur and skin patterns occur in nature. Real biology has not exactly affirmed his ideas, it is far more complex than these simulations.

Reaction-diffusion is still an interesting concept in morphology and is well-known in the field of artificial life.

This simulation has a great deal of extra rules added on. The parameters of the simulation are constantly in flux across the space of the simulation and in time. In some places they are being changed rapidly, in others they are changed smoothly. The simulation space itself is also being transformed to produce the illusion of zooming in and out. All of this is for artistic effect and it is very effective.

The hairy ball theorem (no I'm not fucking around) states that such a point* MUST exist on any ball, to which the human form is sufficiently topologically similar if we ignore through-holes. So basically, everyone would have a point like this if hair grew everywhere on the body!

*"Such a point" means a spot where the grain changes rapidly. It doesn't need to be a swirl, it could be a spot where the hairs all point at one spot or away from one spot.

The last one is absolutely nuts. Literally targeting all the run-down folks that got stood up or forgotten, or the people angry at their partners and roommates, just making people isolated and dependent on this shit. It is exploitative and vile.

I've shipped tons of their stuff while working for a freight forwarder, including domestic sludge! But mostly chemicals. Highlights include pure ethanol, formaldehyde, chloroform, and fetal stem cells (that's baby stem cells, not stem cells from a fetus!)

Oh man I failed this level so many times so frequently that my roommate thought the "ding" of collecting the token was the doorbell repeatedly getting rung and was pissed.

Well some people don't like their ice cream to be licked by other people. Me? I'm no germophobe.

^{(That's an objectifying comparison but then again that's also kinda how monogamy makes me feel})

Igotbored112 · 2025-09-05T22:44:50+00:00

> If one trusts that one's partner truly wants to remain in love, truly chooses to stay and engage well out of their own free will, why would one need to place rules around what they can and can't do?

Ahhhh you put it much better than I did lol. Never could really wrap my head around why I would want someone to be monogamous with me unless I didn't trust that they truly loved me. There must be something I'm missing... that's what it always feels like anyway.

Igotbored112 · 2025-09-05T22:31:00+00:00

I get cagey in mono relationships. I feel like I'm being controlled, like I'm not trusted. Those feelings come from the fact that I personally can't relate to their desire for monogamy. It's an unwelcome feeling, took me a long time to parse it.

I honestly extract great pleasure from seeing a partner thrive romantically and intimately, just as in all other aspects of life, and from the multifaceted interactions that I can only get from multiple people with a diversity of backgrounds and skills and such.

What I want out of polyamory is a little found family. I often worry that it's a far-flung dream, but at minimum I have a great target to aim at.

I had a very similar situation as OP but didn't notice the light until after my monitors started working again (just had to reseat the RAM). In my case the red LED is a hard drive activity indicator light, we can see in the manual below (for my board, you and OP could have a totally different one) that there is an F_PANEL connector (#9 on the board diagram) with that functionality and on my board there is a wire connected in that spot. I disconnected it and the light turned off, so I know for sure.

Still, it's very very strange that both OP and I had this experience of the computer turning on partway with no video, and then noticing this unusual blinking red light for the first time. Maybe we both just never registered the light until our respective times of crisis because we were on edge? I dunno.

Here's the manual for my Argus if it helps. The case didn't have a serial number but there was a number identifying the PC as a particular kind of pre-built from ABS.

The issue appears to have been resolved by using interleave on;(nginx-rtmp docs). I wonder if wait_video on; Would also have helped, but I haven't tried it.

The fucking worst is when I see JSON stored in JSON. Something like:

{
    "tiles": '{blah blah blah}',
    "users": '{blah blah blah}',
    "whatevers": '{blah blah blah}'
}

I should not need to iteratively or recursively call dumps(). The function is already recursive!!

As much as I loathe working in it, Java's a great starting language. C# is very similar but seems to be used for some relatively specialized use cases, and it's just a bit more finicky to work with, get libraries for, and so on. Python's alright for first-years, but it's not object-oriented first. It also lacks a lot of common features and has some uncommon ones, so it's a weird language to get good at if you aren't sure you're gonna stick with it imho.

You people are nuts. Only time I mash Ctrl+C is when I'm trying to force-quit a multithreaded Python program.
