I can't believe 30 minutes into my lecture on linear algebra the professor has already recommended 3blue1brown. Not that I disagree, but lol.

[-] ironeaglebird@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

When you realize you pay thousands of dollars for your professor to just recommend a YouTube channel, but seriously tho a great channel.

[-] Astrealix@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Hey, it's more than thousands, it's tens of thousands XD but also like, he'll still be teaching, just a recommendation. You can't ask questions to a YouTube channel nor make connections there.

Good luck to our women's team on the start of their Champions League campaign today

Not much to talk about these days.

Just noticed Demarai Gray(27) has moved to Al Ettifaq, after spending so many years hopping from one mid table club to another. Back in 2016, still at Birmingham, he was considered a wonderkid when he decided to move to Leicester as a 19-year-old.

Maybe the Premier league has a talent inflation? Players(not the exceptionally talented ones) either want the status of a prem player or boatloads of money. None of that hipster "I'll play in Ligue 1/Serie-A" shit

Definitely feels like the Premier League has a bit too much prestige — and this is coming from someone who thinks it's the best league in the world. There's a lot of good teams outside the PL yet players seem to not care about a lot of them — like, how does Bournemouth have more pull than a bunch of better clubs XD

@Astrealix @HaleEndGrad not prestige, just more ££; I mean when a 100k/week salary is one of the highest salaries in ligue 1, serie a, La liga outside of the top 2-3 teams in those leagues, those other teams in those leagues can’t compete with PL team salaries. That’s why players are going to Saudi League; surely isn’t prestige.

That too, yeah. It's a vicious cycle.

How easy/hard is it to make a Lemmy bot?

Edit: looked into it, looks fun!

[-] Astrealix@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Kinda annoyed by how the WFC side of things tends to promote their TikTok. Would rather bird app or even reddit than tiktok.

[-] ironeaglebird@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I hate how popular TikTok has gotten.

[-] Astrealix@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Hate how it's still so popular despite everyone basically knowing it's Chinese spyware.

[-] ironeaglebird@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Hate that people just gift their data to these companies or in TikTok's case to China. Part of the reason that brought me to Lemmy.

[-] Astrealix@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

To be fair, I don't care as much about data in general. Mostly cuz I think anything that they can get, they will get, anyway, given I'm using an American phone on public (ish) American Wi-Fi. Just don't want that specific country having that much access to me.

[-] ironeaglebird@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

What did @aesecakes mean by an intro thread? Like for us?

[-] Astrealix@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

yeah i think so, i don't particularly care for it but we can introduce ourselves in daily discussions if we want to anyway lol; y'all know more than enough about me tbh.
