MonkeMischief@lemmy.todayto News@lemmy.world•President Trump signs executive order to bring back fitness test in schools2·5 hours agoHonestly this is an idea we should have been getting ahead of.
Gonna need some able bodies to rush the new reichstag.
MonkeMischief@lemmy.todayto News@lemmy.world•President Trump signs executive order to bring back fitness test in schools1·5 hours agoBut if he shits himself and collapses after 20 paces he’s disqualified right?
MonkeMischief@lemmy.todayto News@lemmy.world•Smithsonian removes Trump from impeachment exhibit in American History Museum1·6 hours agoEither way there’s going to be a new exhibit. The question is, do we want it to be one we are proud of, or ashamed of?
I immediately heard this in Link’s voice.
I can imagine a sparrow hopping back and forth now:
“Hup, hup hup, (wing flap) hyaahh!”
I mean hey as long as it’s not breathing and whistling!
True. If every iPhone user was a throwaway consumer, there wouldn’t have been such an outrage over apple “updating” slowness and inefficiency into older devices.

Wait, you’re totally right! I had it turned around!
Quaternions avoid the gimbal lock issue, and are more efficient overall, but they’re a bit more complicated to understand.
Euler is more user-friendly on the editing side of things, and easier to understand, but it’s got some shortcomings. (Maybe that’s why I thought this, perhaps some tutorials were telling me to use Euler at first…? Hm.)
Both are an option in Blender and Godot for instance, because one might suit a given situation better than the other.

Oh sweet! That’s the magic that makes rotations work intuitively in Blender and game engines! :D
… Still can’t say I understand it but I sure am grateful!
What a coincidence! I had a very similar path! My elementary mis-education was largely a fundie school using Abeka as well. Their weird religious nationalism was so crazy when I look back on it. It’s amazing they could actually publish this crap.
I wish I still had all the old books we had to get because that would make for a good laugh (and possibly an embarrassment campaign.)
Like c’mon we were kids how were we supposed to know? But also it just felt so bullshitty, like a written form of that awkward feeling you got when it was really obvious adults were lying to manipulate you and thought you were stupid.
It was in California, so eventually I had to move to the state curriculum also, around middle school, for my grades to actually count.
Honestly, that requirement saved my intellect. I went to a secular charter school where I was pushed into interacting with so many different people of different perspectives, and I would be a much crappier person without that experience.
Even today the damage isn’t gone, there’s still so much untangling and deprogramming to do.
These “curriculums” are child abuse.
After all that, I still kept my faith, not because of that upbringing, but in spite of it. That being said, I’m a Christian anarchist now. I make a point to counter this anti-intellectual, anti-Jesus, pro-fascist propaganda mongering wherever I can.
For what it’s worth. . .I’m glad we both made it through the other side of being exposed to that slop.

MonkeMischief@lemmy.todayto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is a song lyric that you misheard completely?1·4 days agoWhat does it even mean? I mean the “glow” part.
I think it simply means they’re pretty, radiant, stunning. :)
…or have absorbed a crazy amount of radiation ☢️.
Lol but yeah, the song seems to mainly be about the splendor of Australia, its abundance, and warm friendliness to outsiders, as the singer’s perspective seems to be.
