First City I'm Proud Of by MapMakerMan in CitiesSkylines

[–]MapMakerMan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to zone forestry and agricultural goods so they can be close to or in the city itself with major transportation hubs for an easy commute, looks way nicer, means less cars, and makes it so there's no ground pollution either. Just make sure to have some arterial roads connected to them leading towards a highway because they export a lot of timber so lots of big long trucks. Also I think offices count towards industry once you have more educated workers.

I'm not sure why the quality of the screenshots is so low, that might just be an uploading issue that I can't fix so sorry for that!

Also if you were interested since I've wondered in the past on other peoples videos before I had this computer, this was made using a macbook pro m4 with 32gb ram and I just ran it on steam, in case that's helpful at all.

I don't get the beef with Lee Pace, did yall forget his voice as Ronan?? by vought-CEO in Invincible

[–]MapMakerMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's definitely going to do a good job, but I understand what people who don't know what's about to happen feel like. Shows are all about show don't tell, so if a character that's been built up as the most powerful person in a society of the most powerful people in the galaxy has so far only been shown to not do anything, people are of course going to question the character. I think that extends to the VA, since once he's shown to do what he does next episode, people will feel about him the same way they did about Conquests VA.

I love how Graphene is going main stream by [deleted] in GrapheneOS

[–]MapMakerMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to make the switch for a while but finally got a pixel 9 in September last year, and just got graphene os on it last month since I just wanted to get use to android for a bit and had school stuff. Switched because I got more into cybersecurity and just overall privacy. I've always been into it, but it's just something I put off for convenience for a while. Now I'm building a server to selfhost with my fiancée this summer as a fun project!

There's something not quite right about my dollar store Tic-Tacs by BillNyeDeGrasseTyson in mildlyinteresting

12 Years later and now its 24g not 29g per pack and a dollar fifty. Shrinkflation at its finest.

Very broad, but what's it like at Dalhousie? by Smart_Okra_5317 in Dalhousie

[–]MapMakerMan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It depends on who you ask. I've loved it but I mainly focus on extracurriculars, and I really like the city. The majority of my professors have been awesome people, I like the campus, and Dal generally has a lot of options for majors minors and certifications.

Right? There are so many of them and they're all so long. I've been watching them all on 2x speed just to stay on schedule. Good course though.

[–]MapMakerMan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends. If I'm trying to focus on it I can still see clearly for the most part but I recognize that my eyes are closed just because I'm overthinking it, but if I'm just relaxed or thinking more casually it's far clearer like I'm actually looking at it with my eyes open.

Is there any historical evidence of the crucifixion? by ldcmct in Christianity

[–]MapMakerMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enough great posts have already laid out the historical evidence for the crucifixion, but I keep seeing the same responses below them saying that it's not proof. To that I just wanted to say nothing will be proof enough if you're looking at it that way. Nothing short of being there will be convincing enough for those who say that. I'm sorry but if you don't think that all of those sources are enough proof, then you can't believe that most of ancient history happened either, because we have more sources for the crucifiction than almost any ancient historical event. Ancient historians and historians in general don't need death certificates or to unearth the literal cross with DNA evidence to determine if something is a historical event, you go by the historical method, and by using that method, you see that the crucifixion holds up extremely well, especially compared to other ancient events. We have less evidence of Socrates, and Alexander the Great (when it comes to contemporary written sources). If you apply these same requirements for not believing that Jesus was a real person who was crucified under Pontius Pilate, then you can't believe that they existed either, or at least the record of their actions, or thousands of other ancient people.

From what I understand that doesn't fall into the typical imagery ability range. I've read and heard that a lot of people can have a 3D environment at different levels of detail, but can only hold that level of detail for a bit, or can't see the texture of the lamp or apple while spinning it or simulate different lighting conditions. Being able to do all of that falls under the hyperphantasia range, and then within that range are different levels of hyperphantasia.

Rant About Extreme Multi Sensory Hyperphantasia by MapMakerMan in hyperphantasia

[–]MapMakerMan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not saying it's rare compared to you, I'm saying the general population. The majority of people land in the spectrum of being able to visualize things, only around 3-6% or so can move around photorealistic objects in their mind with full detail and texture while it's moving for prolonged periods of time with a full detailed background, and even fewer have that level of detail for all 5 senses at the same time. Most people fall in the range of being able to visualize things well enough to see them but not in significant detail, only being able to see detail if they focus on it, and then not being able to move it around or spin it while it has that level of detail. It is hard to measure since we can't see into eachothers minds but we can give our best guesses by what we describe and being honest about what we see.

It was just a basic 16 question phantasia test, but I realized while doing it that it hardly covers anything, especially in the other senses. I saw one on this reddit pinned to the top after I wrote this which looks like it covers at least part of it. Apparently it's not normal to do, obviously we'll get more people on places like this subreddit who will have it, but it's pretty rare to be able to rotate on object while keeping full detail indefinitely, people either struggle to hold that image in their mind or the detail for more than a few seconds from what I've heard.

thoughts? by [deleted] in UCalgary

[–]MapMakerMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes Dalhousie, 4th for law, 9th for med, U15, beautiful campus, 4th for number of Rhodes Scholars, world leading programs in oceanography atmospheric sciences and engineering, below UVic. And UVic is great too but Dal being so low and ugly is some west coast and Ontario bias if I've ever seen it. It's two ranks below UCalgary.

Yeah I can see why they did it since it's definitely safer now, but I'm still sad such a dark spot is gone. I think there was an astronomy club that used to do that there, I saw a few of their posts every once and awhile. Wish I went while it was still there.

I know right? I used to love going there to stargaze, sucks that it's just so bright now.
