  • I don’t use discord. Recently, I tried to get into a community server because what can you do.
    They have a bot set up. You get access to an isolated channel and have to confirm you’ve read the rules by checking a checkbox, whatever good that does. People who use discord may know what I’m talking about.
    For the life of me, I didn’t get that I have to click the emoji reaction to the post. I write software for a living. I know what reactions to posts are, but they were disabled. Clicking such an emoji to interact with it is a discord exclusive option, usually that opens a list of people who have reacted.
    And holy shit was the “community support” dude a dick about it.

    Sometimes you just have to be patient with people. It might be the most obvious thing to you, and it’s just a blind spot for others, despite everything.




  • Now I want an equal pizza theorem that mathematically shows a simple cutting method that guarantees equal pizza for everyone, depending on number of pieces. E.g. an inner circle that is halved plus an outer circle in quarters for six people, but ((2r)²-r²)/4 != r²/2, r being the inner circle.

    Well, you could always cut ever thinner regular pizza slices, but that’s trivial.











  • My teenage cousins called me the pervert uncle (they’re 17y+ younger than me), presumably because they think they found a sex toy at my place. It’s not, but I refuse to tell them what it is. 😈

    Actually, I should be calling them pervert cousins since they’re the ones coming up with scenarios! But I don’t judge. Takes one to know one I guess. Also, we talk very liberally about relationships and puberty and stuff, so I’m glad we have that kind of trusting relationship.
