Damn dude, that was such a spot-on summary I feel like I don’t need to log in to lemmy for a month lol

[The Fine-structure Constant] quantifies the strength of the electromagnetic interaction between elementary charged particles.

Why the constant should have this value is not understood, but there are a number of ways to measure its value.

Sounds like we know what it is, we just don’t know the reason for its value. (Edit: Unless I’m misunderstanding what you mean)

What are we considering in vs out of city? Does in city mean just downtown, within city limits, within metro area? And what are we considering a city - 300k population?

Yeah, Linux is just not that accessible tbh. I know maaayyyybe a little more than average about computers, meaning I know how to follow tutorials lol.

I installed Ubuntu onto my laptop because it was getting old and slow. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the speed. My laptop is fast as it was new. But, doing some of the simplest things is a nightmare to me. I spent an hour last night just trying to install AirVPN. Why do I have to go into terminal? Why can’t I just right click and install? Then when I finally got it installed I realized there’s no UI, so idk how to use it lol.

Given, I could learn. Nothing wrong with that. But the opportunity cost is low - I’m really not willing to give up that much for ? benefit.

Thank heavens for the Ubuntu app store

you’re a father

I’m not gonna lie, you got me with that one. I looked it up because I genuinely couldn’t tell if this was a joke or not. Kudos!

Nice, thanks for the recommendations!

Is there actually a major phone company defaulting to shipping their phones with C to C???

Huh, good to hear! I bought it off a buddy a while back - I’m pretty much a noob to computer builds so I really wasn’t sure where it stood in terms of quality

They did surgery on a grape

Eat my shit *cunt

FTFY

You really should do more research, how cunt is perceived varies by country and culture. Your worldview is not total. “You lot” continues to make me laugh. You resort to identity assumptions more than a republican. Just as zealous too.

I should’ve known. I really should’ve known

Also just the dogmatism and zealousness. Like good grief dude, people aren’t going to conform to your worldview 100%, just like you aren’t going to conform to theirs.

But hey, what do I know, all I did was recreate an ironic humor community because I’m ableist and homophobic. I certainly haven’t been moderating to keep the good parts and leave the bad behind on reddit /s

No no, there was a test. They provided a list of all the things that MLs hate and don’t want people doing (took me days to reach the bottom) and we had to figure out how to do all of them. Because we’re evil. Literally Hitler. Oh and also none of us can read.

I’m sorry we can’t be Holy like you guys. You truly are a penitent congregation. Except I’m not sorry. Because I’m so evil

No I didn’t

No they make us take a test to prove that we’re racist and hate women and curb-stomp gay babies

Do you really? How do you go about proving that kind of thing?

Idk why did you?

Bro all I said was that you can’t expect people to be nice to you if you’re being an asshole to them. Don’t care? Cool. Then keep being an asshole.

YOU are the one that got all angry and started making accusations and treating identity like an insult. Which, btw, has all been imagined because I literally have not argued a single position this whole time. “People like me” lmao. You clearly have some pent up rage that you’re just waiting to unleash on anyone who you imagine fits that mold.

“Misogynistic language” in this context is just a phrase you’re using to shut down conversation, just like you tried with cishet.

Hahahaha, nah, it’s just funny when people who think like you can’t handle people not praising you for being so enlightened. Think what you want about me. Weird that you’re bringing identity into things considering you don’t know anything about me. But at least I don’t have to waste more time with you. Seeing you added nothing I accept your concession, you can’t win them all. Just lose with more grace next time.
