😭

I usually do, I promise. Anyways, that was 6 years ago. We're stil going strong, making the most of life in this universe :)

Sorry, I should have gone more into the actual belief. For her it was less of an "if I make a decision that leads to my death in this universe, there surely is a parallel universe where I did not!", it was "if I die in this universe, thanks to an infinite multiverse, there must be one where I spontaneously start exisitng with all my exact memories from the previous life".

Oof that reminds me...

When my partner and I had already been living together for a while, we had one of those "cuddle on the couch and deeptalk" days, when she confided that, while she was not religious in any traditional sense of the word, she felt immensely comforted by the thought of an infinite multiverse existing.
"If there's an infinite amount of parallel worlds, then I choose to believe that even if I die here, life goes on in another world, so in a sense my being and existence do not simply vanish completely. Same for you! And hey, even if we both die, we'll get to continue living together in some version of the infinite multiverse!"

It was clearly a thought that comforted her a lot, and at the same time a rather intimate belief that she chose to share with me. So, like the idiot I am, I stared her in the face blankly and went "There's an infinite amount of numbers between 0 and 1, and none of them are 2".

I really regret that. She let me know later that that one sentence shattered the belief for her. Which is sad, because it's such an innocent thought. There's no religious behaviors or conditions or rituals attached to it, it's just comforting.

I have been scrolling on the front page for a couple of minutes now, and I was going to write that it's literally all conspiracy theories, but that's not true, there's also some "sponsored" posts AKA ads sprinkled in.

What a sad joke.

If you think the fediverse is too centralized, you can always host your own instance. You get all the same "free speech" benefits (plus no free-speech ban on drugs and porn), without having to put one foot into that cesspit of a site.

Edit: oh, and that has to be the worst moderation system ever devised - at least if you are a woman or any kind of minority. Good fucking luck in finding a random jury of users who will ever, ever ban a racist or sexist piece of shit on a platform like this. Come to think of it, that's probably the idea and justification behind the system: being able to loudly proclaim "we have a democratized ban system ensuring moderator overreach is impossible!" does make a great dogwhistle for "you can be a terrible human on here, don't worry"

  • has a dick so utterly ginormous that even the slightest bit of arousal drains a sufficient amount of blood from his system to make him pass out

Yeah "Delicious in Dungeon" makes no sense in the same way "Attack on Titan" makes little sense. HOWEVER.

That narrator going "Mmmmh, Delicious in Dungeon! Ooooohh, delicious in dungeon!" at least once per episode is just absolute perfection and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Ne, im Gegenteil. Viele die mit einem Monitor "geübt" sind könnten mit zwei effizienter sein.

Keine Ahnung, die Diskussion ist echt müßig. Sowohl meinen Code als auch einen Browser gleichzeitig sehen zu können, ohne dass irgendwas abgeschnitten wird oder ich dauernd Fenstern zwischen Workspaces verschieben muss ist enorm angenehm. (Hab zwei im Quasrformat über einander hängen.)

Wenn ich muss, kan ich mit einem Arbeiten. Aber es bietet genau 0 Vorteile, und etliche Nachteile.

Hä, ich auch. Trotzdem sind zwei Bildschirme einfach nötig. Ich bekomme, wenn ich nur mein Laptop zur Verfügung hab, vielleicht 40% so viel erledigt wie am PC mit zwei Monitoren, beide mit Hüperland

Lots of good contenders in this thread. I'll just add

Made in Abyss

for the scene where...Nanachi tries to gather the strength to end Mitty's suffering.


I have never cried so hard during any other piece of media, ever. My GF had to hold and comfort me because I just couldn't stop sobbing. That scene just... struck a nerve, I guess.

Hi. I'm German. I bake my own bread. My parents bake bread. My brother bakes bread.

We freeze the bread after it's cooled down from being baked.

You know why?

Because that way, it's great even weeks later.

Sure, nothing beats bread that's just out of the oven. But honestly, I think I prefer bread that's been frozen and reheated even to bread that's only 1-2 days old.

Waaaaaay Less stale.

Yeah. Everytime I'm for a visit, I have to show my mom again how to copy/paste things, access files on her USB drive, where to click to do an update,...

But she loves Bitwarden. Has been app consistent in using random passwords for logins, both on desktop and mobile.
