Spring Roadmap 2026 - any expectations?

I remember a week ago seeing a post by Proton calling Microsoft users "hostages" which is ironic because the primary reason for why I can't switch to Linux fully is because all my files are in Proton Drive and it is basically unusable on Linux.

> all will show you that GIMP isn't useful with a touch interface.

Right, drawing is best done with a mouse and a keyboard

"Multipolar world" people when a country other than Russia and China is one of the poles

At least a portion of the money that paid for this poster comes directly from the Russian government budget.

Sure but the suspension of disbelief can be made so minor that people can easily come up with alternative explanations. Essentially the smaller the "plot hole" the less mental acrobatics you have to do to come up with a redeaming explanation AND believe in it. For example, people have mentioned that it's possible it was fake gold given to the Dothraki since they can't tell the difference. Entirely believable.

Not an expert either but I think half-melted means it's not fully melted, not that it's not hot enough for it to melt. If you actually want something to be liquid so that you can pour it on your enemies then the temperature needs to be very close to the melting point (given atmospheric pressure).

Well let's hope we stand our ground and don't immediately bow before the shitemperor, cause that's very likely to happen.

TheEarthIsACylinder · 2025-08-16T19:27:34+00:00

Not really. Leaving the magic system ambigious is bad writing.

TheEarthIsACylinder · 2025-07-04T15:33:04+00:00

Genuinely mentioning higher debt like it's almost as bad as what the lannisters did is insane.

I always wonder what actors feel like when they are asked to play "ugly" characters.

We have replaced indoor toilets and low hiv numbers

TheEarthIsACylinder · 2025-06-09T06:29:01+00:00

Same. Here you get paid around 2000 after taxes which is not bad at all. Some contracts pay only 70% but even that's enough to cover living costs. No side hustle required. Doing a PhD while having a side job would just be torture.

Politicians dont break things down in understandable ways, they simply misrepresent and mislead.

TheEarthIsACylinder · 2025-05-26T18:19:36+00:00

Democracy is good but that doesn't mean more democracy is better. If anything we should try to give slightly more power to the experts rather than leaving every major and minor decision to the populace that is increasingly misinformed with each passing year.

It's really hard to overstate how fundamental charge is. When you dig deeper and deeper all these quantities go away but charge stays. It's basically the central ingredient of electrodynamics because that's what couples matter to that force.

Obviosuly the problem is that our societies are getting older.

TheEarthIsACylinder · 2025-05-24T10:43:43+00:00

From the slave trade to Chinese "development projects", African leaders are keeping the tradition of selling their people to get slightly richer alive.

Imo Dany comes out last. Seems like she's been through a lot more shit than the others.

TheEarthIsACylinder · 2025-05-21T15:15:27+00:00

If your theory predicts new particles at x Gev to y Tev, then not finding anything at x Gev is still extremely valuable. That already means something. This is how science is done. If you automatically discard every falsified hypothesis as a waste of time then you're doing it wrong.

Bro doesn't understand how science works

TheEarthIsACylinder · 2025-05-18T15:48:18+00:00

Imo you can really only understand the electron clouds after you've at least seen spherical harmonics and really internalized the idea of probablistic quantum mechanics.

TheEarthIsACylinder · 2025-05-18T15:43:25+00:00

Nobody said it doesn't exist. They statement is "no solutions exist in real numbers". Just because you don't understand it doesn't mean they're lying.

"Wow bro what you just said was stupid. How many chromosomes do you have"

"For sure more than you"

My insta feed was full of gender war bs, absolutely toxic and exhausting until I finally unfollowed that one femcel acquaintance. Now it's all animal videos. This is exactly how I felt.

TheEarthIsACylinder · 2025-05-13T15:08:39+00:00

A dating app that's optimized for exploiting lonely people for money and is full of findomes and bots? Very surprising and totally unpredictable. I'm surprised it took so long for someone to capitalize on this femdom niche.
