Think of it like a 0-indexed array: [a, b, c, d]

a is at position 0, b is at position 1…

This array has 4 elements despite the last element only being at index position 3.

A ‘2-story’ home would be a house with 2 different elevations:

[elevation a, elevation b]

If you want to refer to a specific floor, you need to use the index, which is 0/ground for elevation a, and 1/first floor for elevation b.

I’m sure it’s going to be “we got isekai’d into a Minecraft world and now we need to defeat [antagonist] before they ruin everything!”

It’s such a shame because I feel like theres a lot of potential. There are so many faces of Minecraft and ways to play the game (even within the relatively narrow area of vanilla survival multiplayer). Perhaps a better plot would revolve around the friction between these different playstyles.

Theoretically the electorals could go blue without winning any districts. It would require a third party to win at least one district though.

When I worked as a delivery driver, I did well only because of tips. If I was paid minimum wage and people stopped tipping, I would have been fucked.

So basically if your job had no tips, it would require a higher salary than minimum wage to retain workers.

Tell me you’ve never visited a public library without telling me you’ve never visited a public library. https://www.bklynlibrary.org/books-unbanned

If voters were uninformed, they wouldn’t have left or right bias. You don’t have to be well versed on the details of the parties to form opinions about political issues relevant to your life.

Prism Launcher was forked from PolyMC due to a sequence of actions by Lenny McLennington on the 17th of October, 2022. Lenny made several politically charged changes to the PolyMC GitHub repository and organization to remove those supporting "left-wing ideologies". In a commit, Lenny removed the PolyMC Code of Conduct, which outlined and prohibited discrimination against the LGBTQIA+ community and subsequently removed all maintainers. The commit and subsequent mass purge of maintainers were done without prior warning or discussion with the rest of the PolyMC team; the incident can be considered a hostile takeover.

I feel like faith provides a disproportionate of comfort compared to guidance. People take the parts of religion they agree with, and discard the rest. I actually think this is good practice, but it becomes an issue when they use the affirmation of the broader religion to justify their actions.

A moral compass is something you have to find for yourself, and acknowledge that it is not backed up or justified by any other entity than yourself.

For me, I’ve found a good starting point is the TST tenets. Compared to the 10 commandments, they are much more broad. I can use them as a lens to analyze a variety of different situations and organize my thoughts and feelings.

But that doesn’t mean that I use TST to justify my actions, the tenets are my tools of introspection. Heck, the 7th tenet even acknowledges that the tenets are only guiding principles and seems to encourage finding your own morals.

Minecraft wiki is the wiki I have visited most often and it’s not even close. The amount of detailed technical information on nearly every aspect of the game is unmatched. Thanks to Citricsquid as well as all the moderators and editors!

That sounds so childish. Be better.

I was playing some casual (non-ranked) rocket league games and got told that I was a try-hard and that I was overrated in back to back games.

The nature of these competitive games really brings about a toxic community where somehow its become ok to harass and disrespect people. I cannot imagine going up to someone irl and saying some things I’ve heard in chat. The fact that ‘Gaming Trash Talk’ is now so normalized really disappoints me.
