Meh, the worst it can be is being reddit (or lemmy), and I’m already well accustomed to them so no harm.

Getting black out together

It’s essentially a shibboleth, a way to confirm that you’re in the “inner circle”. Tribalism is still one of the strongest force in social science it seems, even if we start with lots of identical people they’ll try to differentiate and discriminate between each other.

I don’t even need to do that because my country do that “for me” lmao. VPN was the only way I ever accessed reddit at all.

This sounds like a setup for a challenge run lmao

Now I’m curious on how the correlation actually lies, because it seems like it’s actually correlated. When people can’t enter, money is usually restricted too and vice versa, just like Russia is now. Of course there is smuggling, but it’s for both money and people. Although maybe it shouldn’t be money but “trade” in general.

It’s actually disheartening that all communist countries become authoritarian. Theoretically with flat power structure, they should all become democracies. Maybe they ARE not communists.

Yeah. This is the biggest one I think. Theoretically a community can be shared by all instances and each instance decide if they want to receive this post and this comment from that community. This way, there could be a community that have totally different meaning in two different instances, but it’s still one name so it’s discoverable.

Although it seems like it’ll be too granular. But it’ll be funny seeing “This post is banned in 69 instances”.

I only know eudaimonia because it’s super advanced tech in Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri, essentially inventing utopia

Pfft just live in truly fertile region bro. Or invent green revolution.

The country take lots of debts and always pays them. By credit companies’ standard their credit score is crazy high. In fact, USA’s score is the highest in the world.

c/AntiqueMemesRoadshow is that way, sir

That’s a much better description than some other cynical comments.

Exponentially better than any AI generated jeans

Area is just hard to discern. Manipulating the radius a little bit will alter area quite significantly (because its quadratic) but you won’t be able to perceive it. By comparison, height is much easier to see. So you can decrease the radius a bit and add height some and you can fool people.

We’ll be skiing in Siberia when the temperature is no longer -40 (any degree)

When I was learning English I feel very stupid questioning why English people says “I’m very sorry”. That I lack a critical knowledge that it’s normal and it means that someone also feel sorrow.

It’s very liberating knowing that even native speaker are also confused and questioning that same phrase.

People in poor countries are sometimes happier only because they can’t sell their happiness

I feel like it’s someone who tries to hyperbole something but it’s not actually that great. I certainly won’t imagine anything related to the sun “imaginable” if I don’t know better.

Sometimes I wanted this, but thinking back again that kind of mission just doesn’t fit open world games. Like, I can’t imagine Elden Ring with any deadline in it. So I just swallow my disbelief and accept that open world games also means open time games.
