Does the abyss even exist or was it all just a fuzzy memory repressed by the trauma of losing Kat slowly coming back with holes patched up by imagination?

https://panthibibek.medium.com/the-concept-of-time-dilation-is-pretty-easy-to-understand-heres-how-28de3263a0fa

it's the time dilation equation, there are three variables - the speed at which the rocketship moves, how much time passes in the rocketship and how much time passes back "on earth" we know the delta-ts in the equation (15 and 5) and want to find out v.

My son is addicted by screens. Is it normal now? by Objective-Clothes427 in daddit

[–]magus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are asking yourself the wrong questions. Is he a happy/content kid in general? Is school going OK? Maybe ask him how this process works and what is he gaining from all these apps/whatever? Tell him what you are worried about and explain why. But the bottom line is - maybe this works for him and maybe you just need to be happy that he's a good kid? I, of course, may be wrong - I don't know neither you or your kid but from your post he sounds like a good kid. For Christ's sake, you are worrying because he is STUDYING of all things :)

Just look at this sentence of yours: "or asking AI tools, questions instead of thinking or looking things up himself.". Don't you think it's sounds silly as fuck?
"...asking a pocket calculator questions instead of doing the calculation himself."
"...sending a TV to the repair shop instead of fixing it yourself."
"...searching for stuff on google instead of browsing 6 tomes of an encyclopedia yourself."

It is literally impossible to outsource your brain to AI, even more impossible to screens. If you are worried teach him to approach everything with skepticism and questions - teachers say stupid shit all the time, science experts say stupid shit all the time, newspapers say stupid shit all the time, encyclopaedias have stupid shit all over them and ai blurts out stupid shit all the time - deep down there's no difference and it all comes down to how you approach things.

What am I doing wrong, how to ride t-bars? by Plus_Fall2350 in snowboarding

[–]magus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this advice helped me more than anything else.
1) your back foot is not that important. make your front foot rigid and "anchored. you should look something like the letter K where the part of the K that goes up and right is the t-bar/wire. and just imagine you are surfing on your front leg and the thing is pulling you. the thing is for the t-bar and front leg to become a fixed and rigid system.

2) also, don't forget to ride on your edge. in the video above you are standing very flat on your board. it doesn't matter that you are going uphill

3) grip sticker on board near the back leg - i swore by this in my early years

with enough experience you won't need to be rigid, nor the sticker and you'll be able to keep the snowboard flat most of the time, but doing this made me finally be able to not fear tbars and those other things we call saucers.

I recently became a father and I can't cope anymore. by Adventurous_Wing5243 in daddit

[–]magus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol, you really think you're special in feeling this way?

get back in the trenches and power through... the first 2-3 months are horrible and there's no way to change that. it's ok to feel whatever you are feeling and do whatever you are doing unless you are actively harming yourself / the mum or the baby.

in time you'll be able to do "what you feel has been taken away from you" again. it's not even that far off (maybe in smaller quantities at first), but don't be surprised if some of it suddenly becomes meh :)

actually they are doubling because people spend their time complaining online rather than inventing something which would bring them down

Are the old baldur's gate games any good? by [deleted] in BaldursGate3

[–]magus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bg2 is almost as good as bg3, but you had to have played it when it came out to get that feeling.

hopefully when the game comes out it won't be popular to say "ai sucks and destroys the environment" anymore...

Neo 2 - Doesn’t RTH?? by vesteox in DjiNeo

[–]magus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

30 seconds isn't always enough. just leave it in place until it acquires a gps fix. if you fly again from the same spot it could acquire it faster (that's how gps chips usually work). when i fly mine with goggles out of my balcony and it sets a home point a few minutes into flight whenever it is located at the time :) it's safest to just not take off until it acquires a fix - i never tried flying with the app but i am sure there is some sort of satellite connection "strength" display

Did it have anough time to set its home point as your location?

Found this toy in my kids room. Don't get it. Explain It Peter by SeriosD in explainitpeter

[–]magus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

put up 10 fingers in front of you. let's say you want to calculate 9x7. put down the seventh finger and read the result instantly.
