Science Memes@mander.xyz•"Nevertheless, the vaginal sounds that were sent will have reached Epsilon Eridani in 1996 and Tau Ceti in 1998. It is unclear what sort of reply we should expect."English
56·1 day agoOk, I was going to crack a joke about how this is a response to the vulva slit being removed from the depiction of the nude woman on the Pioneer plaque, but it literally is.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pioneer_plaque#Criticism
According to the memoirs of Robert S. Kraemer, however, the original design that was presented to NASA headquarters included a line which indicated the woman’s vulva,[11] and this line was erased as a condition for approval of the design by John Naugle, former head of NASA’s Office of Space Science and the agency’s former chief scientist.[11]
There have also been criticisms of the censorship of the female figure’s genitals. Scientist and artist Joe Davis protested the depiction with his Poetica Vaginal project wherein he used an MIT radar dish to transmit the recordings of a vaginal detector.[22]
A friend of mine posted a picture of a Halloween decoration of a skeleton man with a skeleton dog jumping up on him. It reminded me of a photo I’ve seen of the same but with real skeletons and it brought me to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grover_Krantz
Didn’t realize he was a local Washingtonian who studied Bigfoot.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What open source project is the most exciting for you right now?
16·2 days agoNo. This is literally from a desktop browser. That feature is only available on the app.
See also caffeine.

27·2 days agoThe frustrating part of this is how much of the smartphone world is dependent on companies playing along.
I have a Venmo business account I use from time to time. I tried to log in on it from my laptop yesterday to check my balance. I was met with this:

We used to complain that apps are just worse versions of websites, but increasingly, you’re being forced to install an app just to do basic things.
Is there any way to guarantee every app will be available on a linux phone? We can grab APKs at the moment off sketchy websites, but I don’t know how much longer that’s going to work after Google kills sideloading.

If we’re depicting Jesus with his crucifixion scars, why doesn’t Kirk have any scars? Bro, do u even martyr?

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What is the catalyst that actually causes (financial) bubbles to burst?
4·4 days agoI was excited to read that, but the writing style is a little too chaotic for my taste.

11·5 days agoReminds me of this attempt at fixing some of the issues with ET
http://www.neocomputer.org/projects/et/
I think the most interesting fix is the perspective issue/collision detection problem with the pits.
That’s the thing about LLMs. They’re inconsistent. Even when they get it right, we can’t depend on them getting it right 100% of the time.

Like when Barnes and Noble accidentally replaced every reference to the word “Kindle” with “Nook” for their Nook e-reader editions. https://blog.karenwoodward.org/2012/06/barnes-noble-replacing-word-kindle-with.html

Sensorwatch has a sunset/sunrise face https://github.com/joeycastillo/second-movement/blob/main/lib/sunriset/sunriset.c
If you dig into it, see if you can fix this issue that I created months ago: https://github.com/issues/created?issue=joeycastillo|second-movement|55
Edit: actually, if you’re doing this as a psych experiment, just buy a sensor watch and make a custom face for it. It’d be a great way to publish your findings.
