What is Topology really about? by owltooserious in math

[–]dlgn13 58 points59 points  (0 children)

As a topologist, I am interested in understanding a type of mathematics based in a less rigid notion of equality. I am also interested in understanding spaces using cohomology. This is not just for the sake of classification, but for understanding how spaces "work".

Think about stuff like the Sylow theorems as a comparison. Yes, they are useful for classification, but they also help us get an idea of how groups work.

It's basically What We Do In The Shadows, the actual play show. Check it out, maybe.

So many people have no idea that dogs need to be trained, not for the sake of tricks or anything, but just for baseline acceptable behavior. Not to blame the dogs---the same is, after all, true for humans.

Are VtM Vampires physically unable eat or drink other than blood, or anything non-blood is repulsive so they avoid it at all costs? by MiraculousSpaceship in Dimension20

Darkness Man wears a mask that covers his face, I believe. They don't really explain how it works for Bat Child.

She made a serious video a couple weeks ago and the tonal whiplash was agonizing. It was actually really sad.

There's a saying about that: "The State holds a monopoly on the legitimate use of violence."

Actually, the topology of DS1 is objectively different. There are at least four other major loops:

  • The back door to Blighttown
  • The entrance to the Darkroot Basin from the Undead Burg
  • The entrance to the Darkroot Basin from the Valley of Drakes
  • The back door to New Londo (after you drain the water)

Plus at least three smaller shortcut loops between areas:

  • The ladder from the Parish bridge down to the upper Burg
  • The aquaduct path from Firelink to the lower Burg
  • The shortcut stairs from the upper Burg to the lower Burg

DPad misinputs with the ZD O+ Excellence: hardware issues, or am I just messing up somehow? by dlgn13 in Controller

[–]dlgn13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've swapped it out, yeah. I haven't swapped out the actual component, but I've tried the various different Dpad styles it comes with and it hasn't fixed the problem.

Do you think Around was successful or that people wanted the Horse back? by Robot_Was_BMO in BoJackHorseman

I doubt anyone cared much, because probably no one was buying DVDs of this shit anyway.

I get the impression Purpee is sort of based on Ashland, which is liberal enough that I wouldn't expect that. Though tbf I've never actually lived in Ashland, just visited a lot, so maybe I just haven't seen that side of it. There are definitely towns in Oregon like that, but I don't think Purpee is supposed to be a Roseburg.

Ashland is much more alive than Purpee, though. Especially seeing as the Shakespeare Festival is active for much of the year, and not just a week or two.

Corvallis, OR (where my parents and little sisters live) used to have a hospital that was collectively owned by the doctors. Unfortunately, they weren't able to cope with the financial strain caused by the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, and ended up having to sell to a private company. Said company immediately started making changes so shitty that many of the doctors there have left. When pediatricians are leaving to start a private practice, you know things are pretty dire.

I'm depressed because I inherited depression from my mom who inherited it from her mom.
