I love how this chart is going to update every year.

It's non-linear to me but if something is mentioned in the book that happened in the past, I just read that book in the frame of being a prequel. It hasn't really turned into anything spoiler heavy. Though the City Watch novels are a lot more linear and tend to see a lot of character growth.

I understand your concern. I wouldn't be criticising their spelling in the main body of the post, but at the very least they should be spell checking the title. An occasional typo is usually forgiving but if the Lemmy feed is showing a post with many spelling mistakes it's not going to go down well.

Learning spelling and ensuring it is correct is part of learning a language.

If I was posting in a Chinese forum, I would be very careful to ensure the Chinese characters are correct. Differences in minor radicals can make all the difference, e.g. 慢 and 漫 are distinctively different words. It's a different kind of spell checking.

Microwave ovens work on resonance, so I'd be worried about heating up parts of the body more than others. Without resonance you wouldn't have effective heating so it would be a bit complex to warm all parts of the body equally.

Half your posts are specific questions to a specific game which could be answered by searching Google. Such posts do not promote open discussion.

And you might need to check your spelling a bit.

If you had a post like 'I really love Red Dead Redemption 2 (note spelling is correct here) for (insert mission here)', other Lemmy users might chime in with their own favourites.

So you need to curate your posts a bit. Maybe stick to commenting for the time being.

Just to spur this question on a bit, I know from my limited knowledge that cells can kill themselves when a mutation has occurred. But that's also a sort of biochemical reaction. To be honest, what is truly self-determining? Is it simply a property of the nervous system? My thoughts are leading in that direction to be honest.

Be yourself, children will get past your facade and your inhibitions when you realise it.

I've sometimes behaved as if I don't give a shit and they still trigger me in the right direction to make me goofy.

So based on other comments here, the delicious recipe for brisket is:

  1. Bathe the brisket in copious brine.
  2. Place in an oven on low heat on timer for 300 years.
  3. Ensure that during this time the brisket is pounded by gamma radiation continuously.

And of course they were found in the same location they went missing.

Did they reach a conclusion or still ongoing?

Panel 3 was pulled off so well, I actually felt a bit warm and fuzzy before panel 4.

 

Ajahn Nyaniko reflects on finding a balance in meditation through frequent reflection and the importance of learning how to learn in developing the right mindset for practice. This Dhamma talk was offered on August 4, 2024 at Abhayagiri Buddhist Monastery.

 

Luang Por Sumedho gave this talk on 13 July 2024 at Amaravati Buddhist Monastery, UK.

 

When using sudo yay it recommends not using sudo. It seems I had two different outcomes from using sudo and then from not using it. Having used it, what effect does this have?
