The summary about Schopenhauer also doesn't sound very informed to me. More like written by somebody with strong opinions about everything, no knowledge of anything and too lazy to do any research. And right so. Understanding what you're talking about just keeps you from posting "interesting" things like the nonsense claim of Schopenhauer being "not a good philosopher". Actually, Schopenhauer undisputedly was the best philosopher ever, his world records on 500 meters hermeneutics and full-contact ethics where he single-handedly kicked all three Anglican arch bishops out of the ring are still unbroken.

Witchcraft! Sorcery and devil's work!

Meta got sued and had to pay €1,500 per user in a ruling of a supreme state court which can't be appealed. There's a wave of lawsuits expected to follow because this actually means every Facebook user (for now, it might be possible that non-users whose data were also collected will sue, too) can easily sue now. I remember Meta boasting to have the data of some 10M Germans for targeted advertising. Unfortunately that's hardly robust evidence but I hope they'll sue them to hell and back.

You can vote me down as much as you want. You still have no clue of chemistry - or anything else you're babbling about. Morons.

These server boards are usually the same as scientific and engineering workstation boards. They're pretty good if you put the right CPU in. Xeon or i7 4770 and you'll get a quite useable workstation out of them.

Non-gamers only. I recently replaced my mobo by a slightly older (the model, the board itself was brand new) industrial PC board. 32GB DDR3, NVidia Quadro K2200, 2 x gigabit ethernet, USB 3.1, five serial ports, three programmable digital IO ports, hardware watchdog, i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz. It's a Loonix machine and I don't use it for gaming but I do a lot of animation, video editing, µcontroller programming and 3D-modelling with it. Super reliable, fast enough for most stuff. If I need more raytracing power, I just cluster it with my Lenovo p15.

Isomere. The best kind of trilobyte.

I don't. Not a single one. If I spotted one in the neighborhood, I'd take it down.

I think there's some prior art (about 100y) by a poet named Hölderlin.

 
 

You can find the original. highly recommendable movie at archive.org
I originally created the loop for a VJ set. I hope the uploaded webp will be looped in anyone's browser... or most of the weirdly satisfying effect will be missing.

*Edit: * Now it should loop. I told ffmpg to.
Edit 2: Ha-ha... You need to untick "pre-process" when uploading, too.

For all the admirers of the SUN. There seem to be a few as I noticed by the comments on my previous post. There might be some to follow, I just have to export the right pics from shotwell...

 

Silicon Graphics Indigo 2 MIPS running IRIX. Quite a beast back in the days.
