arXiv doesn't have peer review as far as I know

I read this in chief O'Brien's voice

Seven Spires!!!

If an evil spirit cast a curse on me that I cannot listen to anything but Seven Spires, I wouldn't be too bothered.

They're a symphonic metal band, they released an amazing album this year "A Fortress Called Home".

I've been using MetaGer for a long time and have been very satisfied with it. So sad to see it go. Time to look for a new search engine.

And that "no poop challenge" that was everywhere on lemmy about a year ago. Not sure whether that was a lemmy thing or wider, as I don't use anything besides lemmy.

I'm glad a local culture is growing here naturally, but I didn't expect it to be beans, jeans and no poop

I watched this on some youtube channel that goes over and analyzes police interviews to show the tactics being used and so forth. This particular case is in some video "What pretending to be crazy looks like". As I understood it, in the US people judged insane cannot be sentenced to prison, but instead they are sent to some institute for a long long time which is much worse than regular prisons if you're a sane person. But a lot of people don't know this, and think that they can act crazy and just get nice therapy sessions or something.

I got the notification that it's on sale now. I'm buying it today and can't wait to play it when I get the time

Thanks for mentioning Photon! I just tried it and it has a much better look and feel than the default lemmy UI. Though I noticed that I cannot collapse comment chains (or don't know how to), and on one occasion when someone posted a huge format video in the comments, the video was rendered over the comments below it, which didn't happen in the default UI. But other than that, it's great!
All in all I wouldn't mind if this were the default frontend, I'll probably keep using it myself.

I know how you feel. I often find myself typing :w into notepad/word at work to save something. Or when I log into a machine that doesn't have the vim extension in vscode I constantly type /something to search, only to realize that I actually wrote that in the file. Then using 'u' to undo just adds more characters and people look at me like I'm on some drugs. Just embrace it!

Interesting, I thought their beaks were just some hard material, like our nails. Didn't know that there's bloodflow there.

Exactly my experience. I often heard stories of vegans being like that, but I never ever saw it so I thought it was just made up to belittle vegans.

Then I joined lemmy and found out that I'm apparently in favour of massacres, slavery and rape because I consume meat/milk/eggs from time to time.

I imagine the vast majority of vegans just go about their lives and resprectfully discuss the ethics of animal consumption when the topic comes up, but these loud militant members really make vegans look bad and they sure as hell make it so that even less people consider going vegan

I remember seeing to mod in the post commenting on someone's mention of North Korea. First he posted an image detailing the deaths caused by the US and South Korea during the Korean war, and that was it, no mention about NK specifically. Later he said that there was no proof that NK is brutally repressing its citizens. Then when someone said how everyone who fled NK said so, he said how they only do it for the shock value to get stories out and make money out of that, or something like that.

Basically people like that find anything anti-US as good, and if you say anything bad about those countries, they'll ask for proof and then call whatever you provide fake.
