Me: I need a purpose

Brain: Did you say a purchase?

Yeah thats not bad, assuming the asteroid is a perfect sphere, that comes out to a surface area of 12km^2^ for an interstellar cat colony that can move into orbit at will.

I wonder what the maximum size is of a celestial body which a cat could jump with escape velocity

abbotsbury, to asklemmy in Can't we just start calling it "Formerly Twitter" instead?

Only if you think corporate branding is equal to personal identification.

That’s true, but it’s also a double edged sword: you can easily learn metric just by switching to it.

Try setting a weather widget on your phone to only show you Celsius and don’t convert it to Fahrenheit, over time you will get an intuitive understanding of what feels cold to you.

The biggest block to learning a new system is insulating yourself with conversions IMO, imagine trying to learn a new language by just having everyone speak into Google translate

Okay sure, but by taking their money, that’s just doing the same thing the church is criticized for, taking money under false pretenses.

Grifting the grifters would be defrauding the church, not the congregation.

Warhammer, both Fantasy/AoS and 40k, have a billion books so if that’s what you want, I’d say definitely check out at least a couple of the different series. Horus Heresy was mentioned, then there’s a different series about Egyptian space terminators that is highly recommended, think the book is called Infinite and the Divine, then there’s all the Ciaphas Cain books, really there is an ungodly amount, and all of that is just 40k.

On the Fantasy side, most highly regarded is probably Gotrek and Felix, a guy and a dwarf that travel and kill monsters and shit.

There are a shit ton of series to choose from, you could easily spend a long time reading only Black Library if that’s what you’d like.

How are people donating their own money grifters?

I wasn’t literally quoting him.

I’m sorry why is it okay to make fun of guys for being traumatized by women but not vice versa?

Maybe we should extend compassion to everyone instead of removing it for “equality.”

Sorry you had some shitty experiences with women, that sucks, but if your reaction is “everyone should get this shitty treatment” then I kinda lose sympathy for you because you’re putting more hate into the world.

abbotsbury, to lemmyshitpost in Also, the doors actually open.

Midichlorians is just the tip of the iceberg. Yeah, it ruins the Force/the Jedi, turning them from a religion to basically just X-Men, but that’s peanuts compared to changing Jedi from being an esoteric order of warrior monks (remember, Han Solo says he’s been all over the galaxy and never heard of the Force) to actually being the galaxy’s space cops just 20 years ago. That means Han was alive when the Jedi were still venerated. Little slave Ani on Tatooine knew more about the Jedi than Luke did when he was on the cusp of joining the Rebellion; the prequels straight up do not fit in the same universe as the original trilogy without crazy mental gymnastics. Darth Vader was literally mocked to his face for being a religious fruitcake in episode 4, that’s how much presence the Force originally had.
