So if I'm reading this correctly, only the part of you that is made of electrons does this, and the rest of you doesn't?

[–] PM_ME_VINTAGE_30S@anarchist.nexus 12 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Well that's what you get for being made of electrons

[–] hrinka@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 day ago

chromium runs in me? oh shit i guess i need to delete all electrons from me to degoogle

That's very negative

[–] Speiser0@feddit.org 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I don't like electron. It makes apps take so much disk space and be so slow.

Same as every thing JavaScript related when it comes to Desktop !

Can't source it right now, but I believe Sartre commented on how the original quote and his play where he first wrote it was supposed to have that subtext

*video game flow state*

"Oh, what game are you playing?"

*immediately dies*

This is why I could never be a streamer.

Doing the things a particle can.

Is he a dot, or is he a speck?

Measured, not observed. There’s a huge difference.

[–] SorryQuick@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Doesn’t observing at the quantum level require measurments? As in you can’t see without interacting with it, thus changing its behavior?

[–] thenextguy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Quantum particles don't care if we're looking or not. They only either interact with a detector or they don't.

...is my point.

[–] madmantis24@lemmy.wtf 1 points 2 days ago

Fair, but for the record my behavior definitely changes when I'm being measured!

[–] shyguyblue@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

When i worked as a web developer, I could bang out HTML/PHP/JavaScript with my eyes closed....

Until, that dreaded moment where quantum uncertainty is destroyed by the simple act of a coworker glancing at my screen.

Suddenly, it's like you gave a typewriter to a coked up parakeet, hunting and pecking with no regards over where the blinky text input thingie is, trying desperately to look like you know what you're doing, but the harder you try, the clearer it becomes that you're just an imposter! Pretending to know what you're doing, but everyone can tell, just look at you!?

So, I have a couple therapy credits left on my health 'benefits' package, I think I'm gonna make an appointment... /rant

Same. If I have to screen share in a video call, I suddenly forget how to spell every other word and people get to watch me fix 7 typos per sentence.

shouldn't the circles overlap?

[–] Airfried@piefed.social 1 points 2 days ago

That's everyone. That's why we don't want the surveillance state. We all have a natural longing for some privacy.

Definitely saw "Erection."
