I see she's practicing her next outing at the cinema in that picture

Can't speak for the entshitification but actively punished unsubscribed users?

I've been using it for two months, learning Germans, I just use Firefox in android instead of the app and I get no ads, only 5 failures but I rarely reach that on a daily basis (I don't want to burnout and I'm pretty sure it's better for learning to not go too fast) and if I ever reach it, I currently have 1k gems. I'm actually surprised at how little use I'd get out of the subscription.

"lemmy.ml" nuff said imo

Keep in mind that a prison shiv is very rudimentary and most likely not very long. Add to that the resilience of the human body and that makes this fact not that surprising.

You guys get ads ?

It takes two is a fantastic experience to have with a loved one, even if inexperienced with games, it is very forgiving

I don't want to give credit to Apple, but let's not forget that De Niro is anti vax, among others bullshit he have spewed over the years

I would like you to provide pictures of that. I'm pretty sure that's pretty rare in France.

Stop blaming Devs and blame corpo above them. Can't guarantee that's the case here but it's almost always their fault rather than the Devs when things go wrong on a launch like this.

That's grand

We tried to warn you all but oh dear

No Luna yet, you're all heathens.

Numerous studies have proven that WFH is better for production, morale of the worker, and then the plethora of perks that comes with not having to go to work.

It doesn't make your point null, but you're more or less just the exception that confirms the rule.

Story telling I'd ask them to improvise or use known stories to give me examples, I now have stories for a lifetime

No, they don't punish typos, to the point I sometimes have mistakes counted as typos (I distinctly remember typing Schwimmt instead of schwimmst the other day and it said Be careful typos, but counted it right, end up having to check with my gf in those cases)

I don't know why the experience seems so different between people, maybe it actually is, maybe it's expectations. All in all it's free, I don't forget that and through Firefox android I get a very good experience.

You get streak freezes for free now (through quests), relatively often even, I generally get them back in two days if I use both of them in a weekend because I'm busy.

I really considered subscribing until I started using it on Firefox because of the ads, without the ads it's a great free experience imo

"stealing energy" Oof

I'm gonna guess that "Quite the opposite; I have very strong morals. This however icludes things like not lying which means that I always speak the truth and not everyone likes hearing it. I don't follow many of the social norms expected of me."

is the reason for this

"A person recently said to me that they sometimes feel gaslighted around me because I so effortlesly make them question their own beliefs and feelings."

It's good to remember that most of our society is based on lying, and that most people prefer someone nice, rather than someone honest.

Hello Genism my old friend

Do we really need to have the debate about ASD not needing to be "cured", again ?

The way this is written is clearly intended to speak about energy of people, and some that steal it, like you'd steal a candy on your coworker desk, for example.

Which, oof, I just can't take it seriously right from the start.

And then there's the gross generalization of people and how they act, but that's a more common trope, which can sometimes be partly true at least but meh.

Why do you feel that you have to expressly go out of your way to show to the world that you're stupid ?

Is it a competition we don't know about ? Maybe a bet ?

Thanks for the correction, I tend to use both indiscriminately

Had a bit of fun with weird proverbs with coworkers today, two that stayed :

The one who swallow a coconut, has complete trust in his anus.

Don't pretend to be a tiger when you're a kitten.

Not really on theme, but the first one will often get a chuckle out of people without having to be on a pillow.

For those who would be looking, like I just did The Young Dads - Existential Crisis

I... I'm so disapproud.

I see, it does make sense but there's an argument to be made about obscuring things like that (not in the case of aikido tho, here it's more of a "practical translation" of sort, and how it has always been passed down), which is why I said I can't take it seriously.

But you're right that if it profits OP, good for them, it's a bit like religion in that sense.

Thanks for the precision

"I live in a trashy society" don't we all brother

More seriously, you got great advices in the thread, esp the pen and the muffins. You can offer sweets without having it mistaken as a romantic gestures, it then depends on the sweets you offer. A box of chocolates intent can easily be misconstrued, a box of donuts/muffins, much less so. Except if said muffins have hearts on them, it's all about context.

Good luck !

Do you know if there are, or if there are plans for a "new" Turing test ?

Privacy Badger and ublock origin here, never ever got an ad on Firefox

Have you tried sleeping on your left side after a heavy meal before bed ? Helps a lot with mitigating any digestion problems, due to how the digestive system is made

Eh, found the right guy that needs to spin an unrelated argument so he can purposefully miss and derail the point.

You keep telling yourself that while we stay more open Skipper

It's easier said than done tbh. It seems to be slowly changing lately tho, there's hope still.

Ok, so considering that my original point, to which you answered, was that you don't need to compartmentalize to be able to experiment science and religion at the same time, what is your point ?

See https://lemmy.world/comment/5790674

That's more it than most of what is said in that thread, yes getting older plays a role, but when I see people crying about staying up after 1 at 30, those are people that do not get out of their comfort zone.

Source : I work shifts, with many people the same, we've learned to go around schedules and usual hours of sleep because we have to get used to it. For alcohol and drugs, see addicts that do it for extended periods of time/for life.

Oh, I agree for the scientist in OP, dude lost his marbles or is coping hard on his cognitive dissonance, but my point was answering to the much simpler subject of "Scientists can't be religious or they're not proper scientists".

As to the very fine line religious scientists must walk, if we're honest, it's true of many things that make the life of a scientist, because it is measurable and can be approached scientifically, doesn't mean they will approach and measure it that way, humans are fallible, and they often do fail, but that's another subject.

I do agree that they aren't many, the ones who are actually careful about not mixing up their beliefs with science, sadly.

I see we do agree in the end, it was an interesting talk, thank you for that.

I do wonder if science really would have been quicker without religion tho. (Putting apart the time science treated religion as being heretic of course. I mean this in the "wouldn't human find something else to be biased about/get their meaning lost in anyway" way)

Still not addressing points being made, still debating like a child. I will block you now, that's enough time wasted.

Which you ended by"The scientific approach to religion is to make no opinion on its existence,", which is one of the fallacy in your reasoning, you're reducing it to opinion, implying it can't be treated scientifically.

Inferring from that, at best you could say that it should be left alone until scientists could even apply the scientific approach. As in, we don't know, as you said. And that doesn't preclude faith, which isn't mutually exclusive with being scientific.

To be clear, what I read a lot in this thread, is being scientific should automatically infer you can't be religious, because you can't prove it's real. But it omits that you can't prove it isn't.

Granted, the mistake might from where it started, IE this post where the scientist was being very unscientific.
