It's an interesting stage in development, too: bald on top, but still has the color. Maybe they're only a grumpy scientist?

This is funny because 2008 is also when I got stuck on it. Interesting read, thanks for sharing!

rhythmisaprancer, to longreads in Why is English so weirdly different from other languages? | Aeon Essays
@rhythmisaprancer@kbin.social avatar

What an amazing article. I had to look up the author, what a great background. I daresay I undergrasp and will need to followup.

Thanks for sharing ❤️

rhythmisaprancer, (edited ) to asklemmy in What brand/model of pants can you recommend?
@rhythmisaprancer@kbin.social avatar

I can't give you European recommendations, but as someone who has had pant challenges, I can make those. Consider evaluating why they are failing. Are the rips and tears in the fabric panels? You may be able to find pants that are reinforced in those areas or are of a more durable fabric. You could also consider repair. If the rips and tears are at seams, maybe you need extra stitching. This can also be repaired but isn't always cost effective. Also consider fit - if they don't for appropriately, this also can lead to increased wear.

Good luck! Sorry if I come off as a lecture and you know all these things.

Gosh my dad ran that in the early 90s. Was that Linux? He was then and still is a Microsoft person.

rhythmisaprancer, to asklemmy in What are your criteria for upvoting/downvoting?
@rhythmisaprancer@kbin.social avatar

I was never a reddit member and so may miss some of that nuance, but I vote for things I enjoyed reading or for folks I enjoyed interacting with. I thought about down voting one thing, but then leaned that group didn't work that way. The whole point was to say something that was against the grain.

I didn't know about the down votes, thanks for sharing.

If two people are just bickering back and forth, they both get downvotes.

You made me think of this:

rhythmisaprancer, to asklemmy in If many extraterrestrial civilizations were nearby but trying to keep quiet, how would you suggest drawing them out?
@rhythmisaprancer@kbin.social avatar

This reminds me of the six possibilities for extra terrestrial life, one of which is everyone is listening and no one is broadcasting.

This seems like such a no brainier but the US always says no.
