  • The same day is the time between your main sleeping moment.

    Breakfast is the meal you have before lunch on the same day.

    Lunch is the meal you have before dinner on the same day.

    Dinner is the meal you have after lunch on the same day.

    If you have only one meal a day its none of the above and just called having “food”.

    Hope that clears things up.





  • It became downright personal for me. Its about accessibility.

    My brain works a certain non typical way which is challenging to live with at best.

    Sudden advertisements hits me like a physical punch in my face.

    The ui focus on everything new rather then a nice subscription view with filters meant i who does not watch daily would frequently miss new uploads from the channels i do like.

    I felt like i was in a toxic relationship being pushed to watch on their terms while openly hating that i protect myself from ad-sault by using blockers.

    I realize i did not need things to be this way and am smart enough to build and alternative.

    Now i have a yt-dlp script downloaded the latest uploads from chosen channels straight to jellyfin and also a selfhosted invidious with custom tweaks for everything i dont want to spend storage space on.

    Basicly i take 100% of what i liked and never have to visit the website directly again.

    They are waging war on invidious, it breaks on occasion. Yt-dlp though, stable as a rock.


  • I may have heard a similar thing on a video that compared an elephant sized mouse with a mouse sized elephant.

    Neither could survive because evolution designed their bodies for the relative pressure they exist in. This is also related to how fast their hearth beats go.

    Human sized bugs could not exist for the same pressure reason also.

    Disclaimer: i am as much an expert on this as are you. Source is the internet. Possibility Kurtzgesagt.



  • I dont think the whole web being like the fediverse is feasible

    It does not need to be. “Whole web” being a certain way almost implies it all follows the same standards from which point the people who set and develop those standards become the centralised authority.

    I like to think of the internet as simply a carrier of digital information. This can be any information. My vpn tunnel is just as much a part of the whole as a public website.

    The way i envision a positive evolution is that more people get involved in running their own network, for themselves, their family, their neighbourhood, a global community they are a part of.

    They can use the activitypub protocol, a selfmade protocol or any other they want. The only thing that matters is that the people who need and use the digital information can use it.

    The public internet dominated by large players will still exist but it will be (and actually already is) a small portion of everything we use the web for.

    People want the means to survive, grow and live in comfort. Just because we live in a capitalist dystopia does not mean the current requirement to live is what we want.

    If you have all of those and somehow cant find a passion that creates value i rather have you sit at home and do nothing because i have no expectation the work will be of any quality.

    Of course you wouldn’t sit at home and do nothing because that would be boring and people with the means to be mentally and physically healthy expect more of themselves.

    Point to the “dirty” jobs like swiping the streets and i’ll point to the volunteers doing a much better job keeping things clean then the career people. Passion and the inherent desire to make things better is everything.

    All the important cyber security stuff is build on free software nowadays, because it is superior software in every possible way you can measure.

    “Caused” was not a good term but like i said i made that comment half jokingly

    I find that almost everything can be boiled down to just be a display of quantum mechanics which is why id place it as more fundamental.

    I cant really say that about gravity/spacetime though. Maybe someday we do find that it also is but for now it seems to be distinct.

    Thanks for a well written reply.

    Though i still dont quite get this

    the electromagnetic force itself doesn’t “arise” from quantum mechanics, and you can explain things like electromagnets and a lot of common electric circuits (until you need a transistor) quite well without considering quantum mechanics.

    You seem to say if we can explain x without y then y cannot be fundamental to x.

    But can electromagnetism at all emerge if the quantum mechanics dont exist to emerge things like magnetism and some of the behavior of electrons?
