Huh, that kind of gets the juices going, and I’m wondering how much we’ve been trying to make our problems fit the technologies we’ve built, rather than the other way around.

Ogmios@sh.itjust.worksto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•One major issue with social media is that it operates on a first come, first served basis. This essentially rules out the possibility of well-considered, well-researched content being successful.7·23 days agoThat same problem still exists even when sorting by upvotes, because the earlier a comment is posted the more people will see and be able to vote on it, pushing it higher.
Perhaps all the above could be summed up by “Capitalist Greed”…??? 🤡 🖕
No. It can’t. And you’re actively hurting your efforts by attaching high school edgelord bullshit to it.
Corruption has been a serious problem everywhere, forever, and does not care one bit what words the ruling party uses to express themselves. None of what is happening right now is restricted to nations which call themselves capitalist.

Ogmios@sh.itjust.worksto Space@mander.xyz•NASA 'cleanrooms' found crawling with 26 new bacterial species21·2 months agoClean rooms are classified by the particulate count measured in the air. The extremely sterile atmosphere is achieved significantly by controlling the airflow strictly (out vents in the ceiling and in vents in the floor). You still will accumulate dirt in nooks and crannies which are difficult to clean properly, which doesn’t actually cause the room to fail particle counts.

Instead they are confronting images they’ve previously developed regarding one or two characteristics they noticed. Don’t take what they say too personally.
Edit: Be aware that you do the same thing.

Ogmios@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there a historical precedent or tv series that mirrors whats going on in the States right now? Besides Handmaids Tale?101·2 months agoLiterally the first novel ever written “Sinuhe” speaks of a very similar crisis in ancient Egypt.
Western society is based largely upon a romantic partnership between a man and a woman. Because this partnership contributes to a very stable social system, it has endured and proliferated. Now that it has been abandoned by western society, everything is collapsing.

Ogmios@sh.itjust.worksto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•"I was born in the wrong generation" has turned from edgy to a sad reality for some335·3 months agoThere has never been a better time for explorers. People lament that there’s nothing ‘undiscovered’ anymore, but after studying STEM and digging into history I’ve learned that the fact we currently have access to everything those early explorers left behind for us gives us an unprecedented window into what our world actually is, and how it actually works, if only you can look at it with an earnest desire to learn.
Mark my words: Those who actually manage to rise above the din will grow to shine more brightly than anyone has for thousands of years. There is incredible opportunity in hope right now.

Ogmios@sh.itjust.worksto Curated Tumblr@sh.itjust.works•I miss the era of the internet with random games on every websiteEnglish26·3 months agowhat I really miss from that period of the internet was that children could use it safely
Uhh… my largest grievance with how the Internet has been designed is that it was never safe for children to be on it, yet children were thrust onto it en-mass long before adults even really understood what it was. And still people are ignoring the massive problems it continues to cause, specifically for the healthy development of children, as society is circling the drain.

You absolutely know exactly what I was talking about. You are not as clever as you think you are.
