I'd say it's like a tailbone. It was once useful (when we were apes), but has long since lost all purpose. Now it is just a useless appendage and if you touch it the wrong way, you can end up paralized for the rest of your life. We can't go without though, because it's attached to out spine and muscles.

Your not writing regular python code, your writing a special subset of python intended for engineers and scientists called "bad python code"

Have you ever watched a movie or tv show on a mobile device, or otherwise a low-end/low-quality display? What is your current display + sound setup for watching content? in c/[email protected]

I watch on my phone all the time in the train to and from work. I don't really care for the aesthetics, I'm in it for the story.

When I download, I go for the 700mb rather than the 15gb movies. I only have a small, dumb tv that's 10 years old. So watching it there isn't really a theater experience either.

I haven't seen this one in the wild for quite some time. Brings back memories.

The source is in Dutch,but it's a short form video. Nothing special. Any other sources I could find are in Croatian (which I can't read), like:

Is it just me or does this shadow look like a penis?

Thankfully. It wouldn't be fun otherwise. But they're not pictured on this map

Nobody's making fun of the Dutch. Good!

v269 broke the back button (lemm.ee)
 

When I open the comments of a post, I can still "back" to the frontpage. But when I visit Settings or Inbox via the menu, I can't "back" out of it anymore. I have to navigate back to the frontage via the menu.

Toby Hendy (a.k.a Tibees) just announced their book "A guide to making friends in the fourth dimension". (lemm.ee)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

The book is about the mathematical concept of dimensions, but in a fun way with over 170 illustrations.

I'm not affiliated with the author. I just think her message and her enthusiasm is something admirable in these times. She's also completely self published and that's why I pre-ordered the book.

The announcement video:

Excerpt from the website:

Hello friends, I wrote a book! I've spent the last 2 years thinking about dimensions and have collected all the most interesting ideas into this fun guide. I am so excited to finally share it with you!

This book is bound to make you think, teach you something new, and inspire you to continue playing with science and mathematics for many years to come.

Featuring color illustrations by Martina Pepiciello.

No prerequisite knowledge is required.

How do I stop the duolingo icon from changing? (lemm.ee)
 

I have a 800+ streak, so my icon used to always be orange. It didn't even change when it "got sick" for everyone last year. Now they seem to have removed that feature and it "gets angry" if it's past 22.00 and I haven't done an exercise yet. Which is what I very often do.

TIL to add two spaces behind a line to write multi line comments on lemmy without whitespaces between them. (lemm.ee)
 

==============

This is a first line This is a second line This is the third line.

==============

These all appear on the same line eventhough I wrote them on separate lines

If I add a "enter" after each line, they'll appear on separate lines, but have white spaces in between.

==============

This is the first line

This is the second line

This is the third line.

===============

Now I only add two spaces behind each line and they'll appear just as I wrote them

================

This is the first line.
This is the second line.
This is the third line.

If we are in a simulation, maybe yawning is an animation glitch. (lemm.ee)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/28463267

As far as I know, the purpose of yawning isn't really understood, but it's present in nearly all land vertebrae. Maybe it's a universal bug in the breathing animation code.

The New Jersey senator spent much of his speech, which ended after more than 25 hours, assailing the Trump administration. He eclipsed Strom Thurmond’s filibuster of a civil rights bill in 1957.
