Yeah, that's why I love that fact too. Sending a rocket into space and landing on a tiny ball of rock was literally easier than pretending to do it.

Actually, the moon landing was faked but for realism purposes they filmed it on location.

Nah, the technology to fake the moon landing straight up didn't exist in the 60s. There's a really good video on youtube that goes over it but I can't seem to find it right now. But basically, even though there were some nice techniques to make special effects for movies, they wouldn't have worked for faking an actual moon landing.

You'd think so but colours are weird. Some of the ones we see aren't ones that actually exist, they're invented by our brains. Magenta for example doesn't exist, there is no wavelength for it and because of the way our eyes detect light it should really be a shade of green. But our brain doesn't like that and invents a brand new colour instead.

They can ban the mods but if /r/interestingasfuck can't find new mods for 22 days and counting then /r/dndmemes will probably stay empty for even longer.

Tbf, that was wolf of wall street, it's basically a three hour long line of cocaine.

Not really, it's like hosting your own email server. Sounds great in theory and is a fun project but at the end of the day all you get is a vanity URL and a headache.

Plus, the more entwined threads is with the rest of the fediverse, the harder it'll be for them to break off. Users will be following Mastodon accounts and posting in Lemmy communities and if Meta does something to break that, they're the ones that'll get the backlash, not the fediverse. We'll just continue along as normal.

I mean, they can but it takes time to do that and until they do /r/pics is adhering to the letter of the law (or at least an interpretation of it) while spitting in the face of the spirit of the law.

Ah, no, swearing is allowed as long as it's vulgarity, profanity is what requires an NSFW tag. It's a very important distinction that the Reddit ToS accidentally makes.

So, in conclusion: Fuck -> No NSFW tag. Hell -> Yes NSFW tag.

Multi-threaded programming is hard. You can't just write some code and expect it to work across 4 cores, you need to know what to parallelise and how to do it. If you think normal bugs are hard to fix, just wait until you have a calculation that gives a different answer each time you run it thanks to race conditions.
