Commenting here to remind myself to possibly migrate

This article makes me think I gotta buy some nuclear stocks, but I am hesitant because lemmy might be late on hype cycle. What do you think

In case of math literature, I'd say it is mainly because the equations would be horribly long. Things like integral computation comes with lots of details, or some kind of long exact sequence. Experts would have trouble understanding it, while normal people almost certainly have no interest in understanding the formulae.

Also, often there is no meaning to the variable. Like, in a real function f(x), x is just "a real variable". There is no additional meaning to it.

As for other fields, I dunno. They might have copied math literature style or something.

It was your comment that made me realize, agtwr a day later. Damn

Agreed, imo lemmy is more of lacking critical mass. Ime, more people seem to complain about the small size of communities.

I would just never get accustomed to mastodon, though. Finding out people is difficult there.

This also depends on the society you are living in. Good luck with "being yourself" in north korea, or even any east asian countries.

Are we ever going to get the answer?

Welp, my head cannot comprehend how that is possible. How is it deforming the shape around?

Maybe I am confusing homotopy and isotopy again.

Hmm, standard embedding to which dimension?

I get you are joking, but I've seen many literature just using sup for maximum. Maybe for consistency or laziness, idk why

 

Sorry for mental health kind of question, but I do not know better place to ask about this stuff.

Nowadays, I lie down on a bed and just watch twitch streams all day, with a little bit of browsing lemmy in between. I do not want to do anything, pretty much any activity seems to cause exhaustion. So, I just do bare minimum and return to bed, watching twitch for over 5 hours.

Another is that I feel I cannot do anything good enough. I cannot study effectively, cannot do menial tasks without being stressed. This is especially concerning for me because I am taking a graduate program, but I also doubt I could do any kind of real work. I just don't think I have capability to read complicated texts and remember it clearly, write a decent piece of literature on some subject, or just about anything at all.

Is this related to addiction - can addiction make me feel exhausted all the time? Also, how can I escape this permanent lethargy? Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

I do a defect run, I accrue bunch of skills, then I get nobbed.

I retry, get a claw deck going. But there is no All for one in sight. Avocado bops me with big hit, dead.

Then I meet neow again, transforms a card into reprogram. Gee, with a feeling that run is ruined, I build around the reprogram. Defragment and Biased Cognition shows up couple of times, but I already lost the way of focus. Finding and playing reprogram many times turn out to be incredibly difficult, reprogram often fails to turn up by turn 3. Reaches to boss with little health, dies to the Champ.

Then again, I retry in hopes of something better. In the way, I find key cards of Core Surge & Biased Cognition, and 2 Capacitors. Get millions of orb going with 5 focus, becomes literally unbeatable. Eventually, beat the heart with 7 icy orbs and 2 sparky orbs, cycling them around.

Next moment after credits, I find myself clicking Ironclad and I am back to Neow.. Damn, why is this game so much replayable? I cannot break out of it, Aaah

 

I found it quite impressive that people are capable of this. For me, I have neither energy, nor ability, nor comprehensive knowledge to do so. So, it is always fascinating (and a bit intimidating) to see people writing these all the time. I want to ask how you guys achieve this feat.

Maybe, is it that I am nonverbal so I cannit write coherently?

 

Hello. For context, I am in a university. I do not have any friends, and it feels like colleagues talk bad about me. This makes me quite hesitant to join any circles or attend seminars. I am not sure it is everyone who thinks bad about me though, I fear about asking. Yet I plan to do research, so I should attend seminars to learn current trends and stuffs. May I ask what I should do in such a situation? Are friends necessary, or not really? Also should I stop being in this environment and get a job instead? Thanks for reading lengthy paragraph, I would love any comments or advice for this.

 

Tbh I do not know how many lie on the between, it rather depicts me in undergrad.

 

I know that GUI does not cover most of functionalities, for good reasons - being specialized to task (like files app), it provides more fine-grained experience.

Yet, I find that there are common commands which is terminal-only, or not faithfully implemented. for instance,

  • Commands like apt update/apt upgrade might be needed, as GUI may not allow enough interactions with it.
  • I heard some immutable distros require running commands for rollbacks.

These could cause some annoyance for those who want to avoid terminal unless necessary (including me). Hence, I bet there are terminal emulators which restricts what commands you could run, and above all, present them as buttons. This will make you recall the commonly used commands, and run them accordingly. Is there projects similar to what I describe? Thanks!

 

Here's the improvements:

Now, I seek help with the following building. I am utterly lost on what to use for the roof of it. Any ideas?

I don't want to visit reddit, so I came here; Yet this community seems so small. I wanna ask how to build something that is not ugly mess, is it fine to ask it here? Would the Minecraft Forum be a better place for this?

EDIT: Added the screenshots of my atrocious buildings.

Found out the version of neovim on PopOS was fairly outdated, and I would like to use more recent versions. So I am confronted with these choices : Do I go for PPAs, or is distrobox fine for this purpose? While distrobox works well, I am worried that mismatches in packages could cause issues.

About flatpak: it is a no-go for me in this usecase, since it takes quite a bit of configuration to "escape" the sandbox.

 

I installed Pop_OS in place of ubuntu last week, and loving it so far. Most things worked out-of-the-box, but there is this one thing that has been bothering me.

Whenever I open the lid of my laptop, the fan goes crazy and becomes very loud. Strangely, changing the battery option to "High Performance" seems to silence it. Why is this happening, and how can I remedy this issue?

  • My laptop is ASUS ROG Zephyrus, and yes I should not have chosen this one.

Hello! Steam updated today and the scaling got messed up. Even after checking the option for automatic scaling, all the texts and icons look super small. Perhaps it has to do with me using 1440p.. do you guys know of any fix/workaround? Thank you!

EDIT: Now it is working well! I should have tried "turning it off and on again"..
