tyler@programming.devtoSwords@sopuli.xyz•The Sword of Goujian, Found in 1966, Neither Rusted Nor Lost Its Edge in 2,500 Years3·3 days agoThese magnificent qualities did not prevent that in 1994, when the weapon was going to be transported to Singapore for an exhibition, a worker accidentally struck the case and caused a seven-millimeter crack in the sword. Since then, it has been forbidden to take it out of the country, and it has only been moved to transfer it from the National Palace Museum in Taipei, where it was originally held, to the Hubei Provincial Museum.
Dang that sucks
tyler@programming.devOPto The Democratic People's Republic of Tankiejerk@lemmy.world•Tankies think military devices are as hackable as IoT devices1·3 days agoIf you’re going to hack a landmine to disable it then the same end result occurs. The landmine is no longer dangerous and the original comment is scaremongering. Either it’s hacked to be disabled to help the Russians or it can’t be hacked and will be disabled when the defenders want to. Both cases end in disarming. The worst would be if they somehow cannot be disabled, but even then, tracking systems have massively improved since the horrors of the past. They’d know exactly where they are and those countries are rich enough to get rid of them with equipment. The worst cases have occurred from invading countries placing landmines in locations that the eventual citizens are in danger from them.
In any case, the linked post was clearly being brigaded by tankies thinking that Russia can hack anything.
Haha yep, I’m in Colorado and when I kept hearing the same bird but seeing different versions I was always confused. I saw the pink sided up in the mountains this weekend and the same thing happened.
there’s also the cismontanus subspecies in BC. https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Dark-eyed_Junco/photo-gallery/66115761. and its map
and the pink sided subspecies, but it doesn’t look that similar, just has the hood. photo map
the Oregon Junco can be found all over the US and Canada though. https://ebird.org/map/orejun
tyler@programming.devOPto The Democratic People's Republic of Tankiejerk@lemmy.world•Tankies think military devices are as hackable as IoT devices6·4 days agoI didn’t really understand it at first, because clearly military devices do not function anything like an IoT device. Then numerous comments started suggesting that Russia would just hack the land mines and so clearly they should be hacking all the drones as well, but that sure doesn’t seem to be happening. Then I got dog piled on and was like “wtf it’s happening” and took a look at the instance and the users and it became clear.
You have a problem dude. You can’t even form coherent sentences, much less come up with an argument that works for yourself much less the majority of people on earth.
Your logic gets more and more obtuse. You want to go outside, but you want to avoid the sun, you want to do activities outside, but only in a two hour timespan (completely ignoring commuting and that many activities take longer than that). You talk about heat stroke like it’s happening to every single person who goes outside.
Not everyone lives like you. Im gonna use the only time it feels nice to go outside to go outside, instead of rotting in bed forever.
This comment makes even less sense. You want to be outside, but you don’t want sun, but you want to sleep when it’s 8 pm, but that’s the coolest time of the day if it’s not dst. Like seriously, none of your argument makes sense. And fyi, I spend the majority of my day outside. Even working from home, I’ll work in a hammock outside. But I’m also not the average person. The average person commutes to a location to work and then has to come back home, get ready for their activities and then go from there. All of your suggestions are completely at odds with that.
And fyi, shade exists. This is honestly one of the most troll conversations I’ve ever participated in, acting like the sun burns you the second you step outside and you want to be outside without the sun. If you want to be outside without the sun then go out when it’s dark. You can wake up at your normal 5am time and get a great amount of dark cool weather. And the rest of us can live normally.
tyler@programming.devOPto The Democratic People's Republic of Tankiejerk@lemmy.world•Tankies think military devices are as hackable as IoT devices2·4 days agoGetting a bunch of downvotes for stating that Russia isn’t hacking other countries’ military technology. Post is on .ml and couldn’t think of any other reason.
Those averages have nothing to do with summer. In fact many of those locations don’t obey daylight saving time at all, so no, your point is just incorrect. I understand you are stating your opinion, but your opinion would affect the vast majority of the planet in a negative way. Having people drive to work in the dark is a much better outcome for the majority of the planet than having it get dark when the majority of the planet is doing activities unrelated to work.
Most people don’t sleep based on the sun, they sleep based on their work schedule. That’s why DST is superior, because work schedules will just move earlier to make sure that they’re capturing when people are first waking up, you’ll never get rid of that. What you can do is make it so that it’s light when people are performing after school activities, club sports, events, hanging out with friends, etc.
You can always use blackout curtains, so any argument about sleep is never going to be relevant to this conversation. What is relevant is work and play.
There’s plenty of temperate locations, sounds like you just haven’t bothered to look. I live in one, but it’s in America so I wouldn’t suggest that to anyone not already here. I’m guessing further north in the uk or in Northern Ireland you would find plenty of temperate regions.
It could be a badly designed hoodie as well. I started watching a YT channel that examines different clothing brands lately and I learned a lot about how the actual fabric choices and panel shapes affect the comfort of the clothing in ways like this.
Have you contacted the government safety board?
Your logic doesn’t make sense. In other threads you’re arguing that you can’t go out when it’s hot, so stay inside instead. That’s how you get ready for bed anyway, by staying inside. How does the sunsun staying up later change your night routine at all?
Guess what it does do? Make afternoon outdoor activities much safer. Biking, rock climbing, running, literally any outdoor activity is much safer in daylight.
The time doesn’t affect the weather. It’s still going to be hot or cold out for the exact same length of time. Time zone changes only affect whether you’re working or playing at those times. I’d rather have the option than be forced to be working when the sun is out.
Where do you live? Maybe you could choose a more temperate climate
First of all, I don’t wake up with the sun. Having it rise earlier is better for me to wake up naturally, and the normal time would actually help me get up early enough to enjoy the cooler morning before work.
I’m guessing you meant you do wake up with the sun. It doesn’t matter what time the sun comes up then, just wake up with it and enjoy the cool morning then.
Second, I am just as happy when the sun goes down. In fact, if it didn’t go down so fucking late I would have an extra hour of less blazing hot temps as the sun goes down to relax outside before bed.
This literally makes no sense. The temperature will be just as hot at whatever time of day it is no matter whether it’s Standard time or Daylight Saving time.
I would also like to get to sleep at a reasonable hour, but DST makes that harder.
Exactly. Standard time makes this harder. I would like to get sleep at 5 am, a reasonable hour. You do realize the majority of the planet doesn’t go to sleep until after 11pm right? https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/average-bedtime-by-country
You’d literally be forcing the majority of the population to get even less sleep, since the sun would be interrupting their sleep more. If you go to sleep before 11pm you are in the absolute extreme minority.
tyler@programming.devto Polygon@sh.itjust.works•Mario Kart World patch defies the way players want to race online3·4 days agoIt’s pretty crazy that Nintendo made this change. It’s impossible to play three lap online races (only) now. You have to always have intermission in the mix. I was considering getting a switch 2 just for this game and it firmly has made me decide not to. How could they make such as idiotic change?
They didn’t brick anything. They gave a button for you to get a discount if you did it yourself
