Tbh, I want my memes with sources. and this one is strange...
https://civilizationchronicles.com/roman-engineering-and-mathematics/ claims that mathmatics were essensial to roman engineering.
whereas this (only abstract avaliable...) https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-662-66494-0_25 claim that mathmatics were but an auxillary science? 🤔
nontheless mathmatics seems to have been quite understood and used by the roman engineers building among other things, aqueducts

no, the bottom part is the meme's representation of someone doing "mental acrobatics" to avoid blaming people for issues

I personally made a new FB account, haven't touched the old one, but I was thinking of setting it up as "this person has died" account, with my account as the caretaker

tip, for images to properly embed in lemmy (amd probably more places) don't use the link imgur gives you.
right click the picture, click open in a new page - and use that link
(I also did this mistake 🥲)

That's amazing, thank you for trying to deal with the core issues!
And yes, I totally agree that the core issues are more important, and the anti-homless stuff is just symptoms of underlying issues, like systemic hostility towards homeless f.ex
And I did absolutely misread your comment, which I now realize with context

what is a squatter?
someone that lives in a unused house?
the problem there is that a house stands unused, not the people needing a roof over their head.
also, I am really confused do you think that I'm for these spikes and shit? this is clearly meant to ban the spikes and stuff used to further dehumanize homeless

A bath and not having to leave and go to your bedroom through a cold hallway 🤩
the mold on the other hand.... 🥲

yea, or even just properly organizing it.
First unionn I ever joined gave me a contact person that had just quit! (it did get sorted out, but took a while)🤣
I know some people get over-zealous when hiring, have you had any experiences with harrasment? 🤔

It's so weird how critizing the lesser evil ticks people off!
Be critical of all authority, especially when they still stand by genocidal maniacs 😮💨

yea, it's also just up to 160
using grayjay to download wham:last christmas gives us up to 134kbps opus. which is fine, it's the official channel and all, so upload is pretty good.
Just talking, is more like 118kbps, a gresham lecture came in at that.
Opus is variable, which is pretty good. saves bandwith and all.
also to point out, youtube reencodes a lot of videos, so the older it is - the more likely it has been re-encoded. and youtube is not encoding from an old master file.
Point is, totally agree on the generational thing, which you (mostly) avoids with spotify.
it's good enough for most audio setups if you find the decent audio on youtube first

Hi kittenz, I can probably step up as a moderator; buuuut. I haven't moderated any lemmy forums before
I've heard that there isn't moderation tools on phones?

Hi, going to say that I would like You to not be a moderator please. The whole debacle ousting links (and completely stopping any sort of posting here) was kind of caused by You...
With the way a timeout or, timed ban (unsure of the terminology) caused the post You made in blahaj meta - I'm not confident that moderation will not be just like that.

The youtube channel Mossy earth is a project not driven by big investors, but small investors - you and me and they're restoring nature all over the world, in small projects. For me it's one of my happy moments looking at their projects and seeing that good things are actually happening in the world! <3

If you followed the mainstream news for the Iran/Israel escalation, then you might have been terrified about ww3, fearmongering is something they do well. I'm here to suggest a quite crazy channel for leftist to follow. military industrial economics, channel Perun. Not because MIC good, but because it's a channel that grants a very well versed way to understanding modern conflicts. No, it's not perfect, but it's way better than cnn or some shit edit!: it's also one of the reasons I'm less afraid of nuclear escalation in the world! also lol, link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCC3ehuUksTyQ7bbjGntmx3Q
Remember kids, Tankies wants to undermine democracy - same as facists.
Watched Louis Rossman today, and he's part of the team behind a new app for watching online video content - not just youtube, but nebula, peertube, twitch and more. adblock already integrated, works amazingly with a quick test on my end - it's an app in the Lemmy spirit (it's got a paid model similar to winrar, you don't have to pay - but they do want you to - opensource and all)
I have a lot of facial hair; and I've been trying to properly combat it for a long time now. I first got a safety razor, for a close shave - but the dark hairs were very visible and grew out a couple of millimeters by the end of the day. I tried laser, but apparently my facial hairs are both light and dark, not to mention also having red pigments - so there weren't much results. Then i tried pulling hairs out, one by one - this has the actual results I want, but I have to spend so much time on it, and do it around 3 times a week to even keep it sort of under control. I have a epilating machine (pulling hairs out), that work wonders on my legs - but my facial skin hates it, and last time I ripped my upper lip pretty badly I'm hoping for permanent hair removal, but I have to wait for my doctor to hopefully send me to a place (electrolysis) Does anyone here have any experience with waxing the face or such? Should I give up and live with the dark shades of shaving?
