Eating would be weird if we didn't enjoy it. in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world
[–] MTK@lemmy.world 11 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago) (2 children)

Literally everything is weird in the wrong context.

For reference just look at animals and consider octopus sex, snail sex, baby deer pooping, etc

Also, it's not just eating, but the mouth itself is horrific with no context. We have a wet textured hole that we use often and casually insert metal spikes into, that sits right next to out most sensitive organ (eyes) and most critical organ (brain) and to add horror to it, we also casually grow rocks in our hole to grind and rip anything we insert into it, also we early on lose these rocks just to grow bigger ones, but only once. Also we have 4 extra rocks that we really don't want or need but we still grow them a decade or two after we are done growing rocks, and all they do it hurt us.

I was like "awesome! It was so funny and would be great to see a modern version of it!" And the I found out that it is a canonical continuation of the story and immediately got disappointed.

Hollywood, listen. When something old was really good and you want to make more money off of it, take the idea that made it good and stop reviving the dead just to be surprised that it sucks.

A new scrubs with a completely different set of people and story with just the key idea there would actually be awesome. Just remember how well the last season was accepted 😒

What's your harmless/low-stakes conspiracy theory? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] MTK@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I agree, but that's not a conspiracy. Scientifically speaking, we know that animals are smarter than most people admit.

The conspiracy here is that cats are not just smarter than we think but actually one of the smarter animals in general and they are also very internal and just don't care about us so they don't exhibit it in ways that we recognize.

Cats have a much more complex understanding of human behaviour and just consider us harmless and boring enough to not bother.

As in your cat totally understands that your keyboard is special in a way and you don't want it disturbed, but couldn't give two shits about your wants. Or completely being aware of how unpleasant it is when they sit on you with their butthole in your face, but why not if that's what they want to do right now?

I think this is real and that most (not all) cats are smarter and more selfish than we think

" Extraordinary claims need extraordinary evidence"

But honestly, I think this is intuitive and reasonable so I accept it as factual.

Do you think pH should be added to food item labels? (lemmy.world)
 

Considering that pH plays a major role in teeth health and acid-reflux, two things that a significant portion of the population suffers from and can dramatically reduce quality of life, shouldn't the pH of a food item be just as important as nutritional values?

Why do bikes have a solenoid? (lemmy.world)
 

I understand that it is a switch to connect the battery to the sarter. But why not just make the ignition switch the actual switch?

Is it because the amps are high so the switch would be too big to comfortably use? Because if that is the case, wouldn't a simple mechanical solution be better?

When facing a terrible and unchangeable truth, is drug use still a bad idea? (lemmy.world)

Title is a bit much so let me explain.

The world has all kinds of terrible things that the individual can do basically nothing about. Luckily, for most of us it has no direct impact and we are able to ignore the painful reality. But what if you were in a situation where it did impact you? In a way that is part of your everyday. What if for years you are struggling with the internal conflict of "there is nothing I can do about it" and "I can't continue like this"?

As for the drugs, I specifically mean weed and specifically for the days where I find it too hard to ignore. I find myself thinking that if I get high I will have an easier time ignoring the pain and doing something good like cleaning or working.

Notes:

  • Don't bother with telling me that even the individual has the power to make great changes, I believe it and I'm doing my best, but I am also aware of the fact that this situation will not be changed in my lifetime probably.
  • I'm not suicidal, I don't harm myself and while I can tell that lately I have been using weed too much, I don't think I am abusing it. I'm logging my usage and I review it weekly, If it get's out of hand I will know (I think)
  • I'm mostly asking about using external stimulation as a form of escapism
  • Yes, I need therapy, sadly it is expensive. Yes I am looking for options.

EDIT: Thanks to all of the replies, I have read them all but I don't want to respond to all of them. I think this post helped, so thank you!

Now that S&P 500 is climbing and a lot are celebrating, does anyone else feel like this is just the tip of the shitberg? (lemmy.world)
 

All things considered, it has only been about 3 months since Trump took office, I feel like there is absolutely no way that this was just a single craze and from here things will even out.

I feel like until 2028 (or maybe 2026?) S&P 500 is going to look like a roller coaster.

What do you think?

An LLM would probably run the USA better (lemmy.world)
 

I'm being serious. I think that if instead of Trump there was just a prompt "engineer" the country would actually run better. Even if you train it to be far right.

And this is not a praise of LLMs...

Do you think "there are no innocent" is a valid view? (lemmy.world)

It seems that there are a lot of Israelis that believe that there are no innocents in Gaza. And one could argue that it's possible that a significant majority of the population is hateful towards Israelis, considering the history.

If you agree with this argument, can you please explain why and elaborate? And if you don't, how would you refute it? There is no data that shows that there isn't a significant majority that's hateful towards the Israelis.

DISCLAIMER: I'm not stating my opinion as I want to hear an unbiased opinion from you.

Rant! 100GB Log file in Nextcloud. (lemmy.world)
 

I set it to debug at somepoint and forgot maybe? Idk, but why the heck does the default config of the official Docker is to keep all logs, forever, in a single file woth no rotation?

Feels like 101 of log files. Anyway, this explains why my storage recipt grew slowly but unexpectedly.

People who live in functional and safe countries, how happy are you? (lemmy.world)

For those of us who live in the US things are and have been scary and depressing for a while, this seems to also be true about quite a few more countries in the world.

If you are living in a country that you deem safe, well functioning and overall a good country to live in, how do you feel? Do you feel anxious about the current state of the world? Also, what country are you in? (Just in case 🫣)
