That seems very precarious to me, I’d be constantly worried about nudging it and dropping the cups.

From what I’ve heard (back when I used Reddit) they aren’t linked, there’s apparently a bunch of people who have one but not the other.

Someone said that it’s cause they’re almost opposite effects- car sickness is when you feel movement but don’t see it, whereas vr sickness is when you see movement but don’t feel it- but I’d take this with a grain of salt since it’s just some random person on Reddit guessing at the cause.

Personally my experience is mostly the same as yours, I don’t get either.

Aww that’s a shame, the real Neptune looks really dull.

Because in the epilogue it’s said that Harry ended up joining the Aurors (wizard cops) after Voldemort was defeated.

Interesting, that’s how it still works in Chinese chess.

They’re not contradictory. All other headsets’ passthrough is just so bad that even though the Apple headset isn’t good it’s still way ahead of them.

Something kinda in the same vein, in the book series Red Rising, hanging people on Mars is ineffective because of the low gravity (not enough force to snap the neck), so someone has to go up and pull on the legs of the executed person to kill them.

The main advantage of early guns wasn’t that they were more powerful, it’s that they were easy to use. You can train someone to fire a gun in a day, while it takes months of training just to get an archer strong enough to draw a bow.

Also the whole “the Europeans were dirty diseased peasants” thing isn’t accurate, and I have to say that IMO the right response to racist depictions of indigenous people as unwashed savages isn’t to just turn around and say “actually the stereotypes are correct it’s just that it’s about the Europeans this time”.

And Indigenous people had more advanced technoglogy than many give them credit for but "The Europeans were technologically behind indigenous people in nearly every way. " is just blatantly wrong.

I do think you’re right though that without smallpox and other diseases the Europeans wouldn’t have colonised the Americas, though there were several other major factors in it.

P.S. I’m not a historian, grain of salt, etc.

Oceangate as well.

Oh neat. I watched the anime version a while ago, but I didn’t read the original. If I ever get back into the series I’ll check your community out.

ONE OF US! ONE OF US! ONE OF US!

Bruh this is Lemmy you can say suicide and blood.

The technology behind it isn’t new, but The Thought Emporium is a Youtuber who:

1: DIY-d a genetically modified virus to cure his own lactose intolerance (successfully)

2: Is currently working on a biological computer that runs on animal neurons.

3: Has livestreams where the viewers submit ideas (like making tomatoes spicy) and he designs DNA to accomplish it.

Also he helped shut down a scam health product that contained radioactive material which isn’t particularly futuristic (actually it reminds me of the “radiation is good for you” craze in the early 20th century) but I wanted to mention it anyways.

Cool, where did you find all those pixellated icons?

The contrast between the super slick minimalistic icons and the bright green Duolingo owl is absolutely hilarious.

I’ve never used Duolingo, what’s that widget for?

Ignore that other person. This was well written and interesting, I read it all the way through.

But you could be fire!

I don’t think it’s been decided yet. My favourite is still Lemmings.

You can create communities on instances other than Beehaw. Beehaw has some restrictions which include not being able to downvote and not being able to make new communities, so yeah it’s an intentional decision on their part.
